business grow from a tiny shop to a
chain of five big department stores in
New York city. Speaking Of his start
in business, he says:
"One of the merchandising plans
that I learned the first day in my little
store is that the unusual courtesies
which a merchant gives his customers
are often the most appreciated. AS a
corollary to that, the man or woman
who actually spends the money is not
always the most profitable person to-
ward whom a merchant can direct his
good-will-building efforts.

nursemaid who hesitated in front Of

Animals With Third Eyeiid.

Sir John Bland-Sutton, senior sur
geon of, MiddleseX Hospital Medical
school in London, is authority for the
statement that all animals, except men
and monkeys, possess a third eyelid.
Many people have noticed how birds.
notably the turkey, operates this third
lid by means of special muscles. The
turkey is constantly winking without
knowing that it does so. The third lid
in this case is an opaque white cur
tain, but in certain birds and animals.
and in some fishes, the third lid is
transparent covering. The lizard OF
TRANSIT Caspian deserts uses it's trans

while the American fish known as the
star-gazer uses it effectively for watch

is the telephone. But it Is not al

amusement-by trying the transmitter
on various parts Of the body even this

If you put the transmitter on the
chest and speak in the usual tones
the listener will hear the message al
most as clearly as if it were sent In
the usual way.

The Whole Secret Of
Simply Matter of the Maker Policies
A Better

To ascertain what each maker
offers one must analyze and test
some 200 tires-as our laboratories
have done.
Then it is a matter of combining
the best features and building ac-
cording to the highest standards,
Once you try a Brunswick you
will understand how we have built
model tires, regardless of factory
expense.
Yet. Brunswick Tires cost you the
same as other like-type tires. Our,
saving is on selling cost, through
our nationwide organization.
We realize that you expect more
from Brunswicks, and we assure
you that you get it. ONE Bruins
wick will tell you the story.
And then you'll want ALL
Brunswicks. No other tire, you'll
agree, gives SO much for your
money.
