fail after a lifetime of study.
These Investigations have been
worked out in music. The scientific
study OF the subject resulted in a
series OF tests that tell whether a
person possesses the fundamental
qualities necessary to make a singer
These tests have proved TO be accu-

belief that mere application will bring
success. The tests show whether
there is hope for them or not.

With Melons aluminium trust,

day of 100000 each year, or 500
per cent on the original investment,
the history of this organization is
being probed again for future dis
cussion in Congress and on the po-
ntical hustings.
Briefly the story is this:
Original investment, $1,810,000; as
sets today anywhere from $6O,000,000
to 5000, 600, 900; profits for years 1913
to 1920. $10,000,000 each year or 1000

How's that? If you had invested
800 with Andrew Mellon and his
aluminium trust today you'd be draw
ing profits Of $500 year on it. That's
how to get rich, but that's not all, for
TINS aluminium trust has already con-
quered the aluminium world and can
dictate its future.
Aluminium always was regarded as
a fine metal 1t was light it would
stand terrific heat, II was very NAL
leable, 1t would not tarnish in air, and
it would not corrode from organic
acids But 1t was difficult and costly
to produce until Charles M Hall got
his patent for aluminium production

the Pittsburg Reduction Company in
1883.
The Aluminium Company Of Amer
lea was formed and Mellon put the
baby in his financial crib. rocked 1T
and fed 1t and brought 1t up to pay
him 1000 per cent on the original in
vestment.
