Selling the Cold Handshake

If you are a salesman You shoull
never reject an opportunity to shake
hands with your prospective customer,
It's not only that the sincere hand
shake tends to encourage friendly re +.
lations which mean so much in bust !.
ness. but the handshake will give YOU
many a valuable tip on how to talk
to your prospect. 1t will give YOU the
sort OF sales argument which will make
the, strongest appeal to him.
Suppose, for instance, you have lust
shaken hands with II prospect and YOU
have noticed that he has one of those
cold hands. There is little warmth or
vigOr in i. How will you talk to this
man? What arguments, in a general
way. will be the ones which will in.
terost him.
You will find by experience. IL YOU
neglect the cue. that this type of man
will not be interested by any emo.
tional appeal. The fgurativc parallel
is the true one in this case. The
mans hand is cold. lie is cold. You II
have to give him cold. hard facts.
lie wants a profit. You'll have to
show him how he can calculate on
profit on whatever you have to sell
him.

Can You TeL?'

How Toys Originated
Photos by Central News

Toys arrived in the world with the
first children, for since the earliest days
children have had toys to play with.
and as these were always in imitation
of the implements used by the people
in Their various occupations, a history
of toys is merely record of the devel.
opment of man. in miniature.
From the earliest times girls have
played with dolls, but the earliest dolls
were called "childrcn's babies" The
origin of the word "dolr is not quite
clear. but is generally accepted as being
an abbreviation of the name Dorothy.
Dolls have always been in the shape
of human figures and specimens of those
played with by children of ancient
Egypt, Asia Minor. Greece and Rome
are in existence. Some of these old
dolls have movable arms and legs and
some of those of the Greeks and
Romans are jointed with strings for
moving them.
All inventions of the old days. as
today, were soon reflected in toy minin
lures. When people were at war boys
played with the bow and arrow. or the
sling. and were thus taught that it was
mans duty to learn to protect the fam.
ily. Girls toys were forcrunners Of
the future woman's place in the home.
In some countries it was the custom to
send gifts to houses where babies had
been born during the year. A bow and
arrow for boys. a doll or some other
toy for girls. In the game of Battle.
dore and Shuttlecock. which originated
in Japan. a paddle called the "battle.
dore v is used. This paddle is identical
in shape with the paddles used by the
women of Japan when washing clothes.
The earliest mechanical toys were in :
vented in the fifteenth century-being as
interesting to all as the mechanical
marvels of our own holiday season.

II you are disguised with men you went

Her First Love Came Back

Dear Cynthia-I am a daily reader Of
your column and find II very Interesting.
/ am urgently in need Of advice and,
therefore, write to you. am in business
for myself and several months ago I
employed girl, who at first did not
interest me. At that time I had some
business troubles and I used to be very
blue. This girl knew this and tried to
cheer me up and. Furthermore, in many
ways tried to show me that she loved me.
AS time went along I've learned to
love her very much and I have asked
her to marry me in due time We always
used to talk about our future happiness IS
until few weeks ago I saw that she
was trying to avoid me in every possible
way. l saw this, and it hurt me very
much, until at last have asked her
what Is the trouble. She told me that
she had first love" and this first
love- came back to her.
Now. Cynthia, do you think it Is right
for her to act that way?
love her very much now and II Is
hard for me to forget her She Is still
employed in my place OF business.
How can / forget her. as it Is making
me lose my health and also neglect my
business? B. T.
While it is very hard to bear this
now. don't you think it would be worse
IL the girl had married you without
loving YOU? Try to interest yourself in
your business or in some hobby so
deeply that you will not have time to
think about her. Cynthia knows this is
going to be difficult, but 1t Is the only
way you can forget.
