Neither ara credit men and the boiiea! Ughl Salesmen aay It's tough work to get orders, and, when they get them, the credit man la overly doubtful of every uev account. The boss acts as If the salesmen were not onto their jobs and looks sus piciously at the credit man when col lections are abominably slow. . , , All three are Inclined to Inquire when you think business will Improve, They want cheerful Information, but, when they get It, they are likely to quote from thejr own experience to refute what you say. It's useless to explain that the pro cesses of business revival must be slow In the liquidation and reorganisation due to the war and the wastes aft er the war. They listen, but what you ay does not satisfy. They want busl nes to improve and can't see why somebody doesn't do something to bring U about. Usually the somebody Is Congress or the railroads or the bankers or labor or all four combined. This country Is better situated finan cially, Industrially and commercially thus any other on earth. Conditions are Improving. They are much better than six months ago. They will be better six months hence. There have been adjustments or stops, toward adjustment of tremendous Importance. The practical agreement on limitation of armaments means less, perhaps, in direct saving to the na tions than in stabilizing the mind of the world. The promise of settlement of the Irish question Is another. Added to these Is a lessening of the tension. between the European nations and a prospect of approaching with more of anlty and less of passion the question nip aTci of how straighten out the financial mess abroad. There can not be much of Interna tional trade until the exchanges are rectified to some reasonable degree and domestio trade Is certain to be some what restricted for half a year or more. One large element of the Amer ican population has a decidedly small er buying power .than' normally. That Is the farmer. Necessarily that effects many branches of business, for the farmers and those directly connected with the farm makes up nearly one fifth of the people. This does not mean the farmer will not be a pur chaser. It does mean, however, that he will be able to buy less than ordinarily would be his proportion. To a lesser degree the buying power of the big group generally referred to as labor has been reduced. Wages have been cut. Rents, food costs and other Items have not kept pace with the wage reduction, but Inevitably they will come down. From the foregoing It would appear as If the ontlonk was rather bleak. It Is not. One good crop will change the whole situation on the farm. The world must have food and fiber. It must' eat and must be clothed. Next year's crops will be raised at nearly the lowest cost of any crops In the last decade. ' The situation as to labor Is also bet ter. While labor's wage has been reduced, there Is less of unemployment. Kallroads are getting a bit stronger financially nnd are beginning tho large work of refurnishing their proper ties. Construction work generally halted by high costs of material, labor and trans portation, Is showing signs of re- overy. The steel Industry, copper Industry and various other lines of major character are broadening grad- for INFANTS and INVALIDS .

M'arnlngl Unless you see the name "Bayer" on package or on tablets you are not getting genuine Aspirin pre scribed by physicians for twenty-one ears and proved snfe by millions. Take Aspirin only as told in the Bay r pack age (or Colds, Headache, iitiuralgia. Rheumatism, Earache, Toothache, Lum bago and for Fain. All druggists sell Bayer Tablets of Aspirin In handy tin boxes of 12, and In bottles of 14 and 100. Aspirin Is the trade mark of Bayer Manufacture of Alonoaceik'ucld ester of Bailey llcacid, lid-ii ually. ;. It Is so too with many tf the minor lines, even If conditions gen erally are spotted. All this does not satisfy the sales man or the credit man or the boss. The present Is what disturbs them. They will, however, have to face the facts. The salesman from now on will have to be a salesman, not an order tuker. He will have a test that will try his soul. He has measured his success heretofore, and so has his boss, by his sales. That Is not the proper way. The salesman who suoceeds In per suading a retailer or supplier into buying more than the distributor can sell Is a bad salesman, for he loads his customer up with a certain amount of dead stock and impairs the purchas ing power of the customer. No sale is a good sale that Is not of profit to the purchaser. The salesman from now on will' have to sell goods aad not conversation. Not all salesmen Know the goods. And the merchant will have to be a better merchant. The buying s habits of the American people have changed. They are more careful as to the price and want to know what they are buy ing.. You have to "sell" them now and not, as at one time, act as if they could take It or leave it, just as they pleased, and you didn't care which. These are good times for good mer chants and good salesmen and trying times for poor merchants and misfit salesmen. They are the sort of times that make for better business. And the market is tremendous, even If It Is not of such bulging propor tions as two years ago. No other sec tion of the earth has 100,000,00a peo ple speaking ono language and pos sessing such purchasing power. No other section-of the earth has such transportation systems or such mediums of national advantage. No other section of the earth has such a number of people who live so well, have such desires for creature comforts and are so responsive when good goods are offeredat tho right price. Manufacturers, merchants and sales men may bo a bit soft from tho days' when It was a sellors' market. The market Is still there, but It Is a buyers' market. It's the biggest mar ket in the world. , It's a great market for a go-getter. t CoprrlCliI, 1921. hT rtilladtlphU riffillf IMlV. t TWO STOLEN AUTOS ARE FOUND AND MEN CAUGHT James llaywoud, Albert Herring And .Norman In Hands Of Aulhurlilos At ysretlevllle. liMcitl u Kiln Nm.l Kayettevllle, December i.
