r. He can be trusted to
work harder than any other type.

Require Less Watching

It is no accident that the three-hundred-men gangs of foreign workmen
who dig ditches, tunnels and tubes, construct buildings, railroads and
cities work with fewer foremen and supervisors than are ordinarily
required to keep much smaller forces of other employees at their posts.

Seldom Unemployed

For this reason the Muscular is seldom out of work. He is in demand at
the best current wages because he can be depended upon to "keep at it."

While writing this book our windows overlook a public park in one of
America's one-million-population cities. Hundreds of unemployed men
sleep there day and night. Having occasion to pass through this park
daily for several months it has been interesting to note the types
predominating. Hardly one per cent belonged to the Muscular type.

Likes To Do Things

Because he is such a hard worker this type gets a good deal of praise
and glory just as the fat people, who manage to get out of work, receive
a good deal of blame. Yet work is almost as pleasant to the Muscular as
leisure is to the Alimentive.

The Muscular's Pugnacity

Fighters--those who really enjoy a scrap occasionally--are invariably
Musculars. Their square jaws--the sure sign of great muscularity--are
famous the world over and especially so in these days when war is once
more in fashion.

The next time you look at the front faces of Pershing, Haig, Hindenberg
or even that of your traffic policeman, note the extremely muscular face
and jaw. Combat or personal fighting is a matter of muscle-action. Being
well equipped for it this type actually enjoys it. That is why he is
oftener in trouble than any other type.

It was no accident that the phrase "big stick" was the slogan of an
almost pure Muscular.

Loves the Strenuous Life

"The strenuous life" was another of Roosevelt's pet phrases and came
from the natural leanings of his type. The true Muscular is naturally
strenuous. Because we are prone to advise others to do what we enjoy
doing ourselves it was inevitable that so strenuous a man as T. R.
should advocate wholesale, universal and almost compulsory strenuosity.

We tell others to do certain things because "it will do you good" but
the real reason usually is that we like to do it ourselves.

The Acrobatic Type

The next time you go to a vaudeville show get there in time for the
acrobatics and notice how all th
