ed to the Judge that In three of the

"I don’t want to be hard on you," re
plied Judge Calhoun, "but you should
have thought of that before. They tell
me that the express company has a
carload of whisky waiting for you now.
You must have Intended to go Into the

load of whisky waiting for him and de
clared that the whisky found In his

Referring to the diversity of opinion
concerning President Roosevelt, Mr.
lark said:
Roosevelt Raises Row.
"He ran not express his views upon
any question under heaven, even upon
a subject so prosaic and threadbare as
the prospective state of the weather,
without precipitating a row, his ex
treme adherents swearing that there
never has been such a weather prophet
on earth since Adam and Eve were
driven from the Garden of Eden with
flaming swords from Paradise, and his
extreme enemies vociferating that he
knows no more nbuut the weather than
does u ground hoffr’
As to himself, Mr. Clark said he al-
ayi had and would continue to sup
port Roosevelt when right, and fight
Im tooth nnd nail when wrong. What
ever Ills faults and his virtues, however,
Mr. Clark asserted that the president
was not a Democrat, for Democracy
means the least amount of government
the people can get along with, while
Republicanism means the greatest
amount of government the people will
stand, and Roosevelt was the apostle of
Republicanism.
Turna on "Big Wig#."
Turning to the Republicans, lie asked
how tjie "Big Wigs" of that party liked
Roosevelt.
"If you would be candid, you would
confess that you arc not half so much
enamored of the president as you seein
to be," he said. "You grow red In the
face lauding him to the skies, for he Is
still the dlspenser-ln-chlef of pie and u
Republican statesman bereft of pie Is a
spectacle to make the angels weep."

“The Science of Successful Sales
manshfp" Is the subject announced by
Mr. Kenyon, and It Is this same ad
dress that has been responsible for the
building up of his famous reputation In
all sections of the land. In addition to
being a ready and forceful speaker, Mr.
Kenyon has a remarkable personal
magnetism that counts for much In the
results that he has obtained wherever
he has appeared. While the press of
the country has been most enthusiastic
In his praise, perhaps the comment of
some of America’s foremost business
men and merchant princes give tb«
best Idea of the many accomplishment#
of this man from Chicago. According
to the te*#tlmony of these business men.
the real practical results which' always
follow* In the wake of one of these lec
tures are perhaps responsible fdr the
greatest good to the largest number.
Statements from many other cities are
to the effect that Mr. Kenyon actually
accomplishes a tremendous change In
the commercial condition of every place
where he appears. It Is because of
these practical results that Mr. Mas
sengale, when he first heard Mr. Ken
yon. determined to secure his lecture
for Atlanta.
Perhaps the best Idea of Mr. Ken
yon's methods may be obtained from
the report of a recent address which
he mode In Little Rock by The Arkan
ftas Democrat, which Is as follows:
“In the most convincing manner he
Illustrated and elucidated the true
science of salesmanship from a positive
and negative standpoint, pointing, out
to the managers the points to urge and
the points to discourage. For every
favorable point he produced one or
more unfavorable methods to be avoid
ed and discouraged.
“His whole theory was along the line
of applied science to salesmanship, the
matter of getting the best results from
business, not only from the standpoint
of the merchant, but in the matter of
satisfaction to the party on the outside
of the sales counter, an Item which Is
of such vast Importance In the upbuild
Ing of a successful business.
"Along this line he emphasised abil
ity. health, activity, the study of char
acter, reliability, and above all. love
and human kindness. In all. he out
lined flfty-two requisites which go to
make up the four great principles of
the science of salesmanship, but he laid
special stress upon the requisite of love.
Love. In business, aside from the
standpoint of sentiment and Its actual
value In dollars and cents, was a vUal
necessity In th^ management of busl-
ness> The value of a smile, a real smile,
and not the conventional grin, could
never be overestimated, and n cheerful
manager and salespeople would win
trade right past the door of grouchy
competitors.
"Mr. Kenyon's talk was nothing If
not practical. He held the attention of
his audience for more than two hours,
and was followed by 8. H. Kre&i,
Indorsed the words of the speaker, say
ing that for years the Kress manage
ment had been endeavoring to carry
out some of these scientific principles,
but that it required an expert like Mr.
Kenyon, to apply the science to the
practical detail of business."
