Practical suggestions to expedite the work of a salesman were given by Lee B. Nusbaum, instructor of the class In salesmanship In the public night school at Its session, Monday night 'V .i His instructions last night also Included discussions of reasons for slowmoving stock , and legitimate causes for reductions of prices. Among some causes for slow-moving stock were assigned: 5 Because clerks do not like a particular style and do not show it
The buyer may have overbought
certain lines. Salespeople do not know the values
in their stock and so lack talking
points. '
Stock may be marked too high or clerks may be afraid to show high
priced merchandise. Reasons for reductions were given
as: - . i ; Damaged merchandise; soiled or shop worn goods; remnants;, odd sizes; seconds; poor judgment on the part of the buyer; overstocked; special sales to bring people into the store; stock that has been used for display purposes. Here are suggestions which were given to salesmen: You need not be a Hypnotist to sell goods. Be tactful, courteous and accommodating, that is alL Showing goods is what sells them. Don't be afraid to show goods. Read trade journals as much as you can. It will keep you posted. Some clerks can be valuable to the store In other ways than in selling goods. Some are not. If the clerks do not read' the store's
advertisements half of its effect is lost. Don't tell your story too glibly. If you rattle it off as though you had told
it a thousand times it loses its effect If you discover that customers don't want you to wait on them you can just figure it out that your day a In that store are about numbered.

He was questioned by the attorneys this morning regarding the operation of the "blind tiger" but he was not present at the time of the shooting. Tries to Show Hatred. Attorney Johnson, in his cross examination, attempted to prove that Elvord was "sore" at Knapp because the latter had told the authorities before the raid was made about the "blind tiger" operations. The prosecutor attempted to prove, however, in re-direct examination that Elvord told the same facts concerning the shooting before he knew that Knapp had told the authorities about him. Elvord testified that he did not believe that Knapp had been drinking that evening. Ed Johnson, who was an eye witness to the shooting, took the stand this morning and testified that Williams had bad an argument with Knapp an hour before the shooting but that he
did not know what they had been
arguing about "I did not see either Knapp of Willlama drink." said Johnson. "We were
i in the back room most of the time and
Dick would not allow drinks to De carried back there." .Tnhnann testified further that Elvord

' Who Wrote the Hoosier NsstT For eight years the poem baa been attributed to John Finley. and he claimed It for thirty-three years before his death. During those years it was reproduced hundreds of times in newspaper and magazines and was read at Old Settlers' picnics and in Hoosier clubs all over the United States. It is also to be found in many collections of poems and In many books relating to pioneer history in Indiana. I am not aware that the authorship has ever been questioned. Last week I received a letter from a
Mr. Whitney who wrote from Bloom-
ington. Ind., claiming the authorship for Joseph Whitney. An extract from the letter follows: Writes About Poem.
My Dear Mrs. Wrlgley: In tracing
some literary work. I became interested in a poem which I believe is under the name of your father. John Finley. I refer to the "Hoosier Nest." Allow me to say first that according to a tradition handed down through the large two generations a part of the poem was attributed to my grandfather. It is that part of the poem: "I'm told in riding somewhere west and then I camp away and left them. "I have the following questions: "Do you know that your father had any acquaintance with any Whitney, and especially with my grandfather, Joseph Whitney? "Did your father travel through Huntington or Grant counties to your knowledge? "Do you have any knowledge of tle 'Hoosier Nest' or who the 'Hoosier Madam' or the 'Hoosleroons' were or who the 'Stranger was? "I may assure you that I am not in
any way mindful of disputing your
father! claim to the poem, for I have been told always that my great grandfather gave - bis poems to whoever wished them. We have several poems at home in manuscript, but I think we
do not have a copy of the 'HoosleyJ
Nest.' s , - 1 i "I will be thankful for any Informstlon which you can give me and will in return be glad to give you information which you may aak for and which I may be able to give." . ... Questions Are Answered. ; i I have written to Mr. Whitney aaswering his questions and urging him to send proof of his claim to the Richmond Palladium for publication.' . I have no knowledge of any Journey
through Huntington and Grant coun
ties. The name of Whitney is new to me. I had not supposed that any one
would think the poem a description
of any cabin that could be located but was typical of the "Hoosier Nest's
in general. ...-. However I had another letter last week from Gary. Indiana, asking "Will you kindly tell me where I can get a copy of the "Hoosier Nest." Also it you know where he found the nest." . It must have been as I think near the Kankakee river. Any way it is about the only place any of the nests are left I have no further use for the adage. "There Is nothing new under the sun."

The Loveliest Curly Hair So Easy to Have!
To Keep Skin in Fine Condition in Winter
It would be much better for the skin if little cream, powder or rouge were used dusing the winter term. These things which clog the pores, tend to aid wind and weather in roughening and coarsening the skin. Ordinary
mercolized wax will do more for the complexion, and without encouraging the skin to chap, crack or become harsh and leathery. It is the ideal
application for the season, as it not
only keeps the pores clean, but daily removes particles of scarf skin which
have been spoiled by winds or temperature. By constantly keeping the complexion clear, white and soft, it does
more toward perpetuating a youthful
countenance than any of the arts or artifices commonly employed. One ounce of mercolized wax, obtainable
at any drugstore, will completely ren ovate the worst complexion. It is ap
plied at night like cold cream and
washed off in the morning.
To keep the skin from wrinkling, or to overcome such condition, there's nothing better than a face bath made
by dissolving 1 ounce of powdered sax olite in pint witch hazel.
DARKEN GRAY HAIR LOOK YOUNG, PRETTY
Grandma's recipe of Sage Tea and
Sulphur darkens so naturally that nobody can tell.
Almost everyone knows that Sage
Tea and Sulphur, properly compound
ed, brings back the natural color and
lustre to the hair when faded, streaked
or gray; also ends dandruff, itching
scalp and stops falling hair. Years ago
the only way to get this mixture was to make it at home, which is mussy
and troublesome. Nowadays, by ask
ing at any drug store for "Wyeth's
Sage and Sulphur Compound." -you
will get a large bottle of this famous
old recipe for about 50 cents.
Dont stay gray! Try It! No one
can possibly tell that you darkened your hair, as it does it so naturally
and evenly. Tou dampen a sponge or
sort brush with it and draw this through your hair, taking one small Strang at a time; by morning the gray
hair disappears, and after another application or two, your hair becomes
beautifully dark, thick and glossy.
