Advertised Name Pictures

There are scores of proper names which, as soon as mentioned, will bring to your mind the picture of an object which has been constantly advertised. Having seen this article so often has fixed its picture and name indelibly in your mind. As soon as you see the article you can without hesitation speak the name. When you meet a stranger by the same name, as you often will, associate the Face Picture of the stranger with the familiar object for your Name Picture. When you see this face again you will recall the object which you can name without difficulty. For example, the face here may be of a Mr. Gillette, who may not be familiar to you, but if you hear the name Gillette it suggests the picture of a Safety Razor. When you meet a stranger by this name, see him shaving himself with a Gillette Razor. Review your picture a few times and when you meet the man again his face will suggest your Name Picture and you can call his name from the object in the picture. There are many opportunities to use this method, your own city will have many familiar trade marks and signs which you can use, as well as those nationally advertised.

Mr. Campbell (soups) Mr. Douglas (shoes)
