Guess

WHY does coal usually go to the cellar when everything else that is bought goes to the buyer? Answer-For the same reason that when a grocer sells a pound of sugar he gives it a weigh.

I hope every reader of THE TECHNICAL WORLD will write me. I would like to send you my free book, entitled "Ten Years-The Story of My Wonderful Success." It has something to say about one of the greatest and most promising investment opportunities ever offered,

I believe I have the best proposition from an investor's standpoint that could be placed before you. My book tells all about the success I have met with during my ten years of business life, and about its exceptional future possibilities. My success has been unprecedented. I started business in the city of Brooklyn in 1896. My capital amounted to less than $25.00. My first year's business netted me over $1,000. Last year I paid dividends to my partners of 15%. Five years ago my business had grown so large that I was compelled to remove to larger quarters. I am now at 63 and 65 Clark Street, Brooklyn, in connection with the Hotel St. George. I have today what experts have pronounced the best appointed Institution of its kind in the country. I estimate the equipment of the Mac Levy Institute of Physical Culture to be worth at least $40,000. The Mac Levy Co. own free and clear its equipment. It also controls valuable patents-such as the Mac Levy Steel Bar System, famous all over the country, and the Mac Levy Trolley System, for quick and safe instruction in swimming. The local business done by the Mac Levy Institute of Physical Culture is very large. Especially at this time of the year, when the swimming season is just opening. Last year I operated three different places teaching swimming: one at Averne-by-the-sea, L. I., another at Steeple Chase Park, Coney Island, and at our Brooklyn Institute. During the summer months I taught thousands to swim. I had thirteen instructors on my pay-roll. Each instructor worked ten hours a day, and allowed on an average of 20 minutes to each pupil. You can get an idea from this, the amount of business which I did during the warm weather months. This, you understand, was in addition of my Mail Order Department and regular Physical Culture business. I have long thought that there are thousands of people in moderate circumstances who would like to invest a few dollars in an Institution of this kind. At last I decided to offer a block of the treasury stock of this Company to the public at its par value. I have good reasons for coming to this decision. I wish to put into operation extensive plans for extending the business of the Mac Levy Institute of Physical Culture and the Mac Levy Gymnasium Equipment Co. I also wish to erect a building that will enable me to meet adequately the growing demands of my business. If you are of a speculative mind I do not want you as a partner. Wall Street is the place for you-where thousands of dollars are lost in mining and oil stocks. If you have a few dollars that you want to invest where it will earn more for you than the 3 or 4% which savings banks pay their depositors, I want you to read my book. I want you as a partner in this great Institution. Do not let your money stand idle earning only 3 or 4% which the savings banks pay their depositors. Put it to work. Join it with mine. I believe that within a year this Company will pay dividends of at least 20%. If you have read this advertisement thus far, I know that you have become interested in this great enterprise. I know that you will enjoy reading my carefully prepared book. tells all about myself, my wonderful success and fame, physical culture plans, and what I believe the future holds for all who join me in making this Institution world wide in scope. Let me send you this book, It is absolutely free. Write for it today. Now.

The American School of Household Economics

TH

HIS new development of the correspondence idea came into being from the request of women all over the country for aid in their household problems and for guidance in the study of twentieth century housekeeping.

We all realize that industrially the world has made tremendous advances during the last ten or twenty years, but we are apt to over-look the fact that knowledge of the arts and sciences relating to the home has kept pace, and that the good old ways of our grandmothers are no less out of date than the stage coach and spinning wheel.

The thoughtful housekeepers who have felt the effects of this industrial revolution have been seeking in vain for a practical hand-book that would give the desired information in not too technical nor abstruse a form.

A residence course of study is out of the question for the great majority, so as housekeepers and mothers are unable to leave their duties to go to school, the school must go to them.

This the American School of Household Economics does. Its lesson books have been prepared by eminent teachers and represent the long-sought-for hand-books-simple, concise, interesting, and authoritative. The instruction is given by the authors.

Some of the subjects covered are cookery, dietetics, home dressmaking, house planning and furnishing, home nursing, household management and accounts, and psychology of child training.

The attractive Announcement of the School gives illustrated synopses of the twelve subjects offered and details of he methods employed. Everyone interested is invited to send or a copy. Address the Director, Miss Helen Louise Johnson, 3311 Armour Avenue, Chicago, Ill.
