Go to The Dixie for your

Tango Slippers. We are head-
quarters for up-to-now slippers

ses' and Children's huts. See

fad in colt|rs.
Did you ever stop to think
that you do four things, just
four and no more? You think;
you remember; you imagine;
you act. When you learn to
think better, remember better,
imagine better or act better, you
are increasing your efficiency,
and therefore, your income. You
may feel you are very success-
ful now. Suppose you are; it
isn't a question of what you
know, but of how beneficial a
practical business education will
be to you in addition to what
you already know. Did you ever
stop to think that eighty-five
per cent of the men of this coun-
try are only earning $15 per
week or less? That ninety-two
per cent fail in business between
the ages of 40 and 50? That
ninety-five per cent have no
money at the age of 60? VVe
have been very successful in
getting men out of the eighty-
five, ninety-two and the ninety-
five per cent class. Why not
let us help you? We have been
marvelously scucessful in rais-
ing salaries as is conclusively
proven by the letters in our cat-
alog from other students. You
will agree with us that to vio-
late a part of the laws of busi-
ness means partial failure, and
to violate all the laws means
complete failure. You are also
aware that to observe part of
the laws of business means par-
tial success, and to observe all
of the laws means complete suc-
cess. Our aim is to help you ob-
serve a higher per cent of the
laws of success and therefore,
enable you to be nearer the max-
imum success. The late Prof.
James of Harvard declares that
the average man only uses ten
per cent of his brain power.
Suppose you are twice as capa-
ble as the average man? Even
that would mean you are only
using twenty per cent of your
maximum jiossibilities. The
purpose of our course is to pro-
duce a maximum of proficiency
with a minimum effort. The
business world wants thinkers
and doers. There's a famine of
high priced men today; there
are thousands of men worth a
thousand dollars a year. Be the
latter kind of a man; you can if
voti will. We know that a man
i.s worth only about $2.00 a flay
from the chin down selling mus-
cle. but as high as a hundred
thousand dollars a year from
the chin up. selling brains. Be
a chin up| er and sell the higher
type of brains; you can't afford
