OIL PAINTINGS IN EXHIBIT TO TELL SECRET OF SALES / Humanologist of New York Gives 'Art-Business' Addresses, A picture of every man in the world will be displayed in a selected group of oil paintings which will be used at 8 p. m. Thursday and Friday by Allen Bruce Hamilton, 'New York humanologist, during his lectures at K. of P. Auditorium. A broad survey of the sales conditions existing throughout the country today, Hamilton declares, shows a loss of 33 1-3 per cent of what .actually could have 'been accomplished. This ip due, his Investigations reveal, to the fact that the salespeople today are selling the commodity and not the people. By means of the oil paintings, made after a thorough study of humanology, Hamilton will endeavor to point out to the audience the many things essential to the successful salesperson. A cordial invitation has been extended to the business executives of the city to request their salespeople to attend his lectures. “There will be no admission or nothing sold,” said Hamilton. "I am con* ducting these lectures for the benefit of the local business world and believe it will be profited both in sales efficiency from the salesperson's standpoint and in volume from the proprietor's standpoint.” A free will collection will be taken following Hamilton’s address and those contributing will do soon the grounds that they themselves have actually been benefited.

If You Need a Medicine You Should Have the Best Have you ever stopped to reason why it is that so many products that are extensively advertised, all at once drop out of sight and are soon forgotten? The reason Is plain—the article did not fulfill the premises of the manufacturer. This applies more particularly to a medlclhe. A me dlclnal preparation that has real curative value almost sells itself, as like ar. endless chain system the remedy is recommended by those who have been benefited, to those’who arc in need of It. A prominent druggist asys “Take for example Dr, Kilmer’s Swamp-Root, a preparation I have sold for many years and never hesitate to recom mend, for in almost every case it shows excellent results, as many of my customers testify. No other ney remedy has so large a sale.” According to sworn statements and verified testimony of thousands who have used the preparations, the success of Dr. Kilmer’s Swamp-Root Is due to the fact, so many people claim, that it fulfils almost every wish in overcoming kidney, liver and bladder ailments, corrects urinary troubles and neutralizes the uric acid which causes, rheumatism. You may receive a sample bottle of Swamp-Root by Parcel Post. Address Dr. Kilmer & Cos., Binghamton, N. Y., and enolHe 10 cents: also mention this paper.

Forget to snap your purse shut. Leave your change or'-purse upon a counter. Open your purse in a crowd getting on a street car. Have your change ready in advance. Carry large sums with you.
