ADVENTURE 3 Everyone you know can be placed in one of two eneral types—-blond or brunet. There is as big a ‘ifference between the mental and emotional charac- eristics of a blond and those of a brunet as there is etween night and day. You persuade a blond in ne way—a brunet in another. Blonds enjoy one hase of life—brunets another. Blonds make good h one kind of a job—brunets in one entirely ifferent. ° To know these differences scientifically is the first tep in judging men and women; in getting on well ith them; in mastering their minds; in making hem like you; in winning their respect, admiration, ve and friendship. And when you have learned these differences— then you can tell at a glance just what to do and ay to make any man or woman like you, your uccess in life is assured. For example, there’s the case of a large manu- acturing concern. Trouble sprang up at one of the actories. The men talked strike. Things looked gly. Harry Winslow was sent to straighten it out. In the eve of a gencral walk-out he pacified the nen and headed off the strike. And not only this, yut ever since then, that factory has led all the others or production. He was able to do this, because he new how to make these men like him and do what ie wanted them to do. - _ Another case, entirely different, is that of Henry Peters. Because of his ability to make people like iim—his faculty for “getting under the skin” and naking people think his way, he was given the posi- ion of Assistant to the President of a large firm. [wo other men, both well liked by their fellow em- yloyees, had each expected to get the job. So when he outside man, Peters, came in, he was looked upon dy everyone as an interloper and was openly disliked ry every other person in the office. ' Peters was handicapped in every way. But in ipite of that, in three weeks he had made fast friends yf everyone in the house and had even won over the swo men who-had been most bitter against him. The vhole secret is that he could tell in an instant how 0 appeal to any man and make himself well liked. ' A certain woman who had this ability moved with ner family to another town. As is often the case, it s a very difficult thing for any woman to break into she chill circle of society in this town, if she was not known. But her ability to make people like her soon won’ for her the close friendship of many of the “best families” in the town. Some _ people wonder how she did it. It was simply the secret at work—the: secret of judging people’s character and naking them like you. * * * * * \7OU realize, of course, that just knowing the difference between a blond and a brunet could rot accomplish all these wonderful things. There are other things to be taken into account. But here s the whole secret. You know that everyone does not think alike. What one likes another dislikes. And what offends pute pleases another. Well, there is your cue., You an make an instant “hit” with anyone, if you say the things they want you to say, and act the way they want you to act. Do this and they will surely like you and believe in you and will go miles out of their way to PLEASE YOU. You can do this easily by knowing certain simple signs. In addition to the difference in complexion, every man, woman and child has written on them signs as distinct as though they were in letters a foot high, which show you from one quick glance exactly what to say and to do to please them—to get them to believe—to think as you think—to do exactly what you want them to do. In knowing these simple signs is the whole secret of getting what you want out of life—of making friends, of business and social advantage. Every great leader uses this method.
