ividends."

Freedom-from-Stammering PAYS--in dollars and cents. On a cold business
basis, it is one of the best investments to be made. One man who
attended here a few years ago was a fireman in a large factory, stoking
boilers all day long. Today he is salesman--and the head salesman at
that--for the same firm--he makes as much as the President of the firm.
He works on commission--and he knows how to talk so as to sell.

Another man was section foreman when he took his course at the Bogue
Institute. Today he is manager of one of a great chain of big retail
stores and makes more in one day than he used to make in two weeks.

Another case is that of a young man from New York State, who gave up
his position to come to the Bogue Institute and be free from
stammering. Six weeks later he went home. Like the other young man
mentioned above, he met with a success--surprise--he was re-employed by
his old employers--and he, too, was given a 25 per cent. increase in
salary.

So, you see, freedom from stammering pays--pays splendidly and
continuously for all the rest of your life. It pays in satisfaction, in
contentment, in happiness and ability to associate with others on a
plane of speech-equality.

It pays in better salaries and bigger earning power--in opportunities
opened and chances made possible to you that are closed to the one who
stammers.

The world's successful men and women do not stammer. The happy,
contented people do not stammer. The money-makers do not stumble and
stick and stutter when they talk.

To be successful you must know how to talk. If you stammer today, make
your plans to get out from under the handicap--remember that it will
pay you and pay you well.

CHAPTER VI

THE HOME OF PERFECT SPEECH

The Bogue Institute of Indianapolis is truly the home of perfect
speech. For in no other place can be found the things that are found
here. Nowhere else is there that silent sympathy with the moods of the
one who stammers. Nowhere else is there that home-like atmosphere, that
all-pervading spirit of helpfulness and cheerfulness and good-will.

No matter how discouraged the stammerer may be, no matter how tired or
nervous or self-conscious--no matter how shy or shrinking from the gaze
of others--no matter how timid or filled-with-fear the mind, the
attitude begins to change within an hour after his arrival.

For this is the home of perfect speech. Success is in the air. Every
step I take counte
