Or if someone says, "That's a pretty blue necktie you are wearing," an American is maybe to say, "I'm glad you like it," or "Thanks. My wife gave it to me for my birthday," The answer to a compliment seldom conveys（传达）the idea, "I, too, think it's a pretty good."

　　A man once said how useless it was to put advertisements in the newspapers. "Last week," said he, "My umbrella was stolen from a London church. As it was a present, I spent twice its worth in advertising, but didn't get it back."

　　"Now," said the merchant, "I often advertise, and find that it pays me well. But the way in which an advertisement is expressed is of extreme importance. Let us try for your umbrella again, and if it fails, I'll buy you a new one."

　　The merchant then took a slip of paper out of his pocket and wrote:" If the man who was seen to taken an umbrella from the City Church last Sunday evening doesn't wish to get into trouble, he will return the umbrella to No. 10 Broad Street. He is well known."
