Poor at twenty; Rich at forty;
Internationally famous at fifty

You are invited to have FREE a booklet that tells what
few great books make a man think straight and talk well

OOR, friendless, with no education, Benjamin Franklin walked through the streets of Philadelphia alone.

[ocr errors]

Yet at forty he was independent; at fifty his company was eagerly sought by the leaders of two continents. What was Franklin's success secret? Something mysterious? Not at all. His secret was nothing more than this: Every day of his life he added a part of some other man's intelligence to his own. He picked the few really great mindbuilding books and read them systematically a few minutes every day.

Are you bigger today than yesterday? You have so few minutes in the day for reading; so few days in a busy life. Will you spend them all with the gossip of the Newspapers, or the mere entertainment of Fiction? Or will you, like Franklin, start now to make the great thinkers of the world your servants? Will you increase your own brain power by adding their brain power to it? What are the few great books-biographies, histories, novels, dramas, poems, books of science and travel, philosophy and religion, that have in them the power to make of their readers men who can think clearly and talk interestingly-men who will not only be ambitious for success, but who will have acquired the broadness of vision necessary to achieve it?

All of these questions, so vital to you, are answered in the free booklet pictured below. You can have a copy of it for the asking.

At my expense examine these amazing yet
simple secrets that will give you a commanding
personality, win you hosts of friends and
materially assist in business and social success
By Arthur Gould

HERE are no strings to this offer. I mean just what I say. You may be the one out of one hundred who I can't convince, or the five out of every hundred who refuse to be convinced. If so, the five day test costs you nothing. It is purely up to you. To any man or woman, any one over eighteen years old, I ask only for the opportunity of placing in your hands the secret of quickly acquiring a winning and dominating personality. Then for five days, you keep this material, read it, study it, and then return it to me or keep it. That's fair enough, isn't it? I show you, satisfy you, before you pay but a trifle of what this secret will bring you back quickly.

over.

And here's a startling fact for you to think A fact, not a fancy. Half those who are struggling along, just making ends meet, have only the lack of personality to blame for their life of drudgery. Many of them are trained men and women, but they fail to convince others because they are devoid of personal magnetism-personality. If you can't convince others in business, how, tell me, can you succeed? You must be seen, noticed, looked up to. Lacking a strong personality, how can you attract that attention so necessary to your success, business or social?

The man or woman who has mastered the secret of acquiring a magnetic, dominating personality, does not have to take a seat in the background. They attract attention and draw people to them. Their friends or business associates may not know why, but they attract them as the light attracts a

Why Personality Governs Your Success Did you ever see a bank president who lacked personality? I can't think of one, and doubt if you can. Above all things a bank president knows the cash value of a good personality, and develops his own. He must to inspire confidence, to make people feel at ease in leaving their money under his management. You see the point. don't you?
