CASS who for many years has taught Games, Physical Exercises APPLIED SUGGESTIONthe Wonderful New Method in Child Training HE was a wonderful child-a golden-haired, blue-eyed tot of four-so sweet and lovable in disposition, so cute and nice-mannered in her ways, that she was adored by everybody. Her nature seemed to be pure sunshine-until it came time for bed. Then she almost always criedshe struggled against being taken upstairs-she fought her mother when she tried to undress her. Her parents tried in every possible way to overcome this trouble, but all the usual methods failed. Finally the mother wrote to Professor Beery, President of the Parents' Association, and an authority on the subject of child training. He recommended the one method that succeeded. He explained how to employ the principles of Applied Suggestion, and inside of a few days the child's antagonism to going to bed was entirely overcome and no further difficulty was encountered. What Applied Suggestion has done in this instance it has done in thousands of others in connection with every bad habit to which children are subject. Through knowing and practicing its principles, parents have quickly eliminated the undesirable traits in their children and cultivated their highest tendencies. The results have been nothing short of marvelous. What is APPLIED SUGGESTION? terious about Applied Suggestion. On the con- All the guess-work is taken out of childtraining by Applied Suggestion. It reduces the whole subject to a simple science-it is a complete course of training for all ages-it is used in infancy to overcome wrong habits such as crying, fretting, peevishness, and to give the first lessons in obedience, self-control, etc. It is a strong, constructive force through the years of childhood, when habits of willingness, confidence, mental concentration, truthfulness, honesty and frankness must be instilled. And it is used by parents to guide their boys and girls through the critical years of adolescence, when the influence of the home is apt to be weakened and the temptations of the world are so insistent. Every child reacts to the universal appeal to the childinstinct. Applied Suggestion demonstrates what this appeal is and how it operates. It proves conclusively that bad habits, wrong tendencies, and other faults commonly found in children are as unnecessary as they are dangerous. It proves that children respond readily, willingly and joyfully to the higher impulses, and as a result the development of the finer traits of mind is quick and lasting. Yet there is nothing mys Instead of antagonizing the child's nature, Applied Suggestion follows the normal, natural channels of impulse, so that results are gained without friction. Child training is no longer a trial and a worry and a hardship, but a supreme pleasure, a wonderful, beautiful experience in which the parent shares every confidence, every joy and sorrow of the child, and at the same time has its unqualified respect. To have your children all that you want them to A Remarkable Opportunity Now Offered What Wrong Methods Do The child-mind is the most delicate mechanism in the world. It is tragic to think of the effect upon that tender mechanism of the methods so commonly employed. As Professor Beery says: "It is a misunderstanding of the fundamental nature of children that accounts for ninetenths of the trouble in their training." In trying to overcome one fault, parents unwittingly encourage other faults of a worse nature. Sullenness, secretiveness, untruthfulness, deceitfulness, and stubbornness are some of the effects of wrong methods. Applied Suggestion has none of these bad effects because it is based on the one true appeal to the child-nature. 20,000 members of the Parents' Now the whole wonderful Professor Beery's complete course in Child Training, based upon Applied Suggestion, has been published in sixteen handy volumes, profusely illustrated and attractively bound.
