The Answer Can Be Found in the Formulation of His Philosophy' of .Self -Help in His Latest Book VKTUOUVVstl ulslics to discover the ex ' Planatlon of IttiEsell II. Conn-nil, one of Philadelphia's most distinguished Instl tutlotis, will nnd useful data In his latest book. Itn title Is "Observation : Every Man "Is Own University," nnd it purports to oo an expansion of Doctor Conwell's lec ture Unowi) as "Tho Silver Crown." It Is more than thlv, for It Is n revelation of the man's methods and his philosophy. His philosophy Is not new nnd his methods nro simple. He lias applied the one and tued the other to such good purpose, however, that It Is almost Impossible to estimate the number of persons whoso lives have been Influenced by him. .More than u hundred thousand persons havo studied In Temple University, which he founded ond has large ly maintained. How many thousands havo heard his lecture "Acres ot Diamonds" no man knows. It has been delivered more than 5009 times. Doctor Conwell explains Its vitality In n sentence or two In an auto biographical chapter In tho new hook, when he says that .each time ho hos delivered It he has attempted to Impress on himself tho thought that hero wns an opportunity to do good to pome ono and that he has changed and modified tho talk to fit the local conditions. Tho lecture, therefore, Is not a mero set speech, recited parrot-fashion, but Is a living message delivered each time as though no one had ever heard It be fote, and addressed directly to the audience before tho speaker. "Veres of Diamonds" starts with n fcloiy from India. This book, likewise, begins with tho telling of the legend of n dead city of India and Its famous king. The tlory Is allegorical. The royal line had run out and It wbh necessary to find a new king. The astrologers said that "when you find a man whom the animals follow, the sun serves, the wtitets obey, and man kind love." this man would bo ono of the royal lino and entitled to the throne, no matter who his ancestors were. Such a man was found In the person of a hunter In the mountains whom the animals followed because he had learned how to euro their Ills, whom the sun sered because he had learned how to light a llro with a lens, whom tho waters obeyed because ho had dammed them In a mountain gorge against the tlmo of drought, and whom mankind loved because h allowed the waters to fiow freely ilow n Into the valley In the dry season. This man was ablo to do nil these things because he had kept his eyes open uml his mind alert as lm went about his tasks. Then Dr. ('onnell drhes home his point, that such a man Is ruler of his world, no matter what his nncestry may havo been. Ho approaches this ptopo sltion from numerous angles .and Illustrates It In arlous ways. This Is his philosophy, the philosophy of making the most of your self and of your time. H Is the same phil osophy at bottom as that In "Acres of Dia monds." It Is not a new phllosoph The wide influence which Dr. Conwell has secured In preaching It Is due to his method. For example, he says that there was a young boy working In a coal mine In l.nRland, in a vein only two feet thick, of whom Queen Victoria said when she Introduced him to her son that he was tho greatest man In all Knglnnd. In this sentence ho bridges tho years of Stevenson's life that ran be tween tho time he worked In a colliery to the time when his achievement as tho In ventor of the railway locbmothe was uni versally recognized and applauded. There mmMX2Kmmmiid'4''L jW DR. RUSSELL II. CONWELL Is no mote subtle way ot appealing to the ambition of a youth In humble station. Dr. Conwell Is a public speaker Ho has won his position b his ability to persuade men and women He i events his methods by Indirection In his discussion of oratory He says that "oiatur Is the great science of successful speech" How :ue ou to know whether a man Is tin orator? The answer he finds is simple. It is: "The man who gets what he pleads for Is an orator, no matter how he calls. If jou call a dog nnd he conies, that Is orator). If he runs away, that Is elocution " There is nothing new in thin, but It ex plains why Dr. Couuell Is un orator and lias been able to mme thousands. tVlien lie stands before uu audience he Is continu ally watching lis moods to dscoer whether the dog is tunning uwny or coming. The book lit which he says these things Is likely to rank high among the man) volumes on self help It should lank higher than most, for It is t.ie product of n man who has applied succccsfitlly what he pi caches nnd can speak with authority OI1SKIIVATION- i:cer Man 111- Oivn fnlM-r-fltN liv ltusn I'onwi-H.

SI Salads and Pickles In thesti strenuous times of whealless and beefless days the importance of salads has grown apace oil our menu, Xo doubt It was tho telzlng cm this psychological national moment that made Mary M. Wright, the author of "Candymuklng at Home," bring out a compact) little volume dealing with salads just at this time. The book is named ".Salads and Sandwiches." A peek at tho contents is sufllclent to tell the housewife that this is Just the little book she has been hunting for. The recipes ate easy to get at. whlcli Is a prime requisite for the kitchen library, nnd after ou get at them they're worth while. No phase of salad or sand wlch-maktng has been Ignored, and many original phases that no housewife has eer heard of have been Intioduced, A worth while little book this within easy teach of the everyday pocketbook. A companion volume to "Salads and Sand wiches" Is "Preserving and I'lckllng," also recently brought .out by the ame author. It Is written In the same practical language and bound In the same compact stjle. De lightful new combinations of preserves nre suggested, and pickling of vegetables sea sonable Just at this time is u notable fea- tuie As its name suggests, tills llttlo volume Is a complete manual.

It has survived under the telling of unskilled writers for many generations. They, have not been able to kill It.

One of the better kind lias been produced bv Kdgar Wallace, author of "The Clue of the' TwMetl Candle." The detective Is an Hngllsh gen tleman of education and Intelligence. The criminals nre led bj a young woman nine teen years old, niece of a disgraced armv officer, who hos entered on a life of crime. The girl plnnB the crimes, with no com punctions of conscience, for she hnh been educated without any regard to the develop ment of her moral sense.

The story deal? with tho disappearance of a train loaded down with gold from South Africa the nctlon takes place In England and the success of the detective in finding It. It Is unusual In plot and most unusual In Its denouement. One hopes that Mr. Wal lace will not decide that tho disposition he makes of hli detective In the last chapter will prevent the man from engaging still further In the interesting occupation of pit ting ills wits against those of the criminals.
