METHODS OF SALES
 SUBJECT OF LECTURE

The Psychology of Salesmanship" was the subject of lecture by Miss Ada Terrill, public school instructor in sales manship, yesterday at the Civic Associa- tion before a meeting of the women who will have charge of the booths at the doll bazaar which will be given December 7-10 for the benefit of the Children's hos pital.
 The seamy side of the customer and the average woman and man, as the saleswoman sees them, was a very in- teresting study for these women who had been customers on the right side of the counter for many years.
 The fact that vanity. laziness and the desire to initiate are the three character istics to which the professional sales woman or man appeals in the customer was emphasized by Miss Terrill.
 After outlining the method of sale Miss Terrill named the different kinds of cus- toners. the woman in hurry, the woman who cannot make up her mind, the woman who had no intention of buying in the first place, the woman who att tempts to buy closely, the bargain hun ter and last and most to be sympa- tlized with, the man who has come shop ping quite against his will and is very much embarrassed. He is just as apt to ask for lemon needle when he wants an orange stick, she said, as he is to ask for a lemon squeezer when he wants tooth pick.

!R5257575751575151575151S

If you combined the curative proper ties of every known ready made" cough remedy, you probably could not get as much real curative power as there is in this simple homemade cough syrup, which is easily prepared in few minutes.
 Get from any druggist 215 ounces of Pinex, pour it into a pint bottle and fill the bottle with syrup, using either plain granulated sugar syrup, clarified molasses, honey, or corn syrup, as de. sired The result is a full pint of really better cough syrup than you could buy ready made for three times the money. Tastes pleasant and never spells.
 This Pinex and Syrup preparation gets right at the cause of a cough and gives almost immediate relief. It loosens the phlegm, stops the nasty throat tickle and heals the sore, irritated membranes so gently and easily that it is really astonishing.
 A days use will usually overcome the ordinary cough and for bronchitis, croup, hoarseness and bronchial asthma, there is nothing better. :.
 Pinex is most valuable concentrated compound of genuine Norway pine ex- tract, and has been used for generations to break up severe coughs.
 To avoid disappointment ask your druggist for "21h ounces of Pinex" with full directions, and don't accept any thing else Guaranteed to give absolute satisfaction or money promptly re- funded. The Pinex Co.,. Ft. Wayne. Ind

CLARA KIMBALL YOUNG IN
 "MID-CH EI."-TRIANON

l Clara Kimbau Young is being shown 1 in her latest picture Mid Channel. at the Trianon this week. The name, Mid Channel" is symbolical of the few dam gerous years of married life that follow 1 immediately on the three or four nor
 mally happy ones. The narrative idea is taken from a novel of the same title which brings out the comparison or married life to the English channel. in
 the midst of which is a dangerous and unexpected ridge.
 This ridge has to be bravely roughed. then all is smooth sailing before and after The symbol is very well brought
 out in the experiences of young mar
 ried couple who are at this stormy pc riod. Miss Young, assisted by J. Frank
 Glendon as leading man, does some fine
 work in the married life portrayals
 Their married quarrels and scenes and general inability to right themselves ara almost realistic enough to give the spec l tators the sensation of intruding. The sympathy is certainly thoroughly aroused for both, and the happy outcome well come.
 | Beautiful settings and a richness or detail in the social functions of the pie ture are all that is done to throw any kind of a glamor over the story, which
 deals with the subject matter in an out /, right, matter of-fact fashion.

Something About the Red Cross

To the Editor of The Age-Herald:
 few weeks ago there was a discus sion in a mems Bible class as to the proper disposition of several hundred dol lars that had been accumulated in the class treasury. One member suggested the Mercy home, and another called at tention to the masterful and touching plea of the editors of the Literary Digest for the starving and stricken children of the Far East.
 Following this a reference was made to the poor fund of the church rnar was employed for the relief of the poor and unfortunate at our own gates,- -irrespec- tive of church ties. At this juncture a brother, hitherto quiet, spoke in impress sive tones:
 T have never been able to understand why American people desire to send their money 5000 miles away to relieve the re- ported sufferings of unknown people when there is so much misery among our own kind of folks here at home. My wife was out this morning and found a family of five located near us, widow working at So week in cracker fac tory to support herself and four chil- dren. two of whom are sick. How can she do it with this miserable pittance?'
 His remarks were followed by silent assent and agreement. The point made impressed all his auditors as apropos. The most of the money was later placed in the church poor fund for such situa- tions as this.
 It has perhaps not occurred to an of IS that the field workers, case secre- taries and relief callers of the American Red Cross are constantly and daily in touch with families whose circumstances are quite similar to that related above. Every day of the year your money en- trusted to your local chapter of the American Red Cross is used to appease hunger and alleviate suffering.
