Can Fear Be Cured?

Professor Angelo Mosso, of Turin, in
his book on Tear" which has recent
ly been translated into English, says
that fear is disease to be cured. He
particularly condemns the methods
which are sometimes practiced by par
ents and nurses. of governing and con-
trolling young children through sense
of fear. Even more pernicious Is the
practice of awakening sense Of terror
in children by stories of "bogeys." hob
COLLINS and witches. According to Pro-
fessor Mosso, mankind can be made
more courageous by proper cultivation.

\ POOL TO SUPPLY GOLD
Plan OF New York Bankers to Check
Exports.


Exports.
New York, July 27.-The Evening
Post says the committee OF foreign
bankers appointed at the meeting yes.
terday to formulate a plan for the
checking of the exports of gold during
the next two months is not expected to
report for two or three days. 1t is the
intention to arrange pool by which
all demands for exporting may be sup
piled during that time. This morning
there was decline of one-half cent in
the posted rates for sterling exchange.
The bankers present at yesterday q
meeting today referred all questions to
i. p Morgan. An associate of those
present said, in speaking of the result
of the meeting:
1.-THE report that foreign bankers
have agreed to sell exchange not to
exceed e15, 1000, 900, and have promised
not to ship gold for two months, is
hardly correct. We have, however,
been assured e15, 100000 in the next
two months, to be provided by syndi-
cate comprising powerful local and in
ternatinnal interests, at a price lower
than the cost of exporting gold to En-
rope. The details of this agreement

Suicide In Athena OF Judge Edward
Depestt.
Pendleton, Or, July 27.-Judge Ed
ward Depeatt was found dead in his
Office in Athena at l p. M. today,
having committed suicide. He was
missed at home Tuesday night, and his
family thought he had come to Pendle-
ton. They telephoned here Wednes-
day, and, learning nothing of his
whereabouts, commenced search. To-
day L. D. Leavely and Deputy Marshal
Dhalson entered his Office through a
window, and found him lying on a
lounge. His arms were across his
chest, the right hand holding a re-
volver, the muzzle of which was in
his molth, the bullet having passed
through the roof of the mouth and
lodged in the brain. The room was
quite dark, the curtains being drawn.
AT the inquest it was found that the
cause of his death was gunhsot wound
inflicted by his own hand on or about
the night of July 21. He was known
to have threatened to commit suicide
several times, and had been drinking
heavily.
He was so years old. He leaves a
widow and three children. The de.
ceased had been six years in Athena

Wonderful sums.

Astronomers are not yet all agreed
as to the causes of the variations of
color and brilliancy which are exhib-
tied by many stars. In the constella-
ton Cepheus, In the northern sky,
there is a star named Delta Cephei,
which, In the course OF about three
days, alternately gains and loses a large
part of Its light. The spectroseope
has proved that Delta Cephei consists
Of two stars revolving around one an
other In a very elIiptical orbit, al
though they never get far enough apart
to be separately visible from the earth.
Even when viewed with telescope
their light Is blended into a single star
disk, although If we could go near
enough to them we should find that
they are, In reality, millions of miles
apart. When brightest, the united
4 light of the twin stars Is two or three
! times greater than when faintest One
\ of the explanations recently offered by
astronomers to account for these chan
/ ges is that one of the stars composing
\ Delta Cephei has very thick atmos-
pheric veil, consisting of clouds of con.
densed metallic vapors, and that when
the stars draw near one another In
their orbital motion the increase of
heat dissipates the obscuring veil, and
permits the star to which ii belongs to
shine with spiendor that Ii cannot
obtain when its rays are interrupted
by its envelope of clouds. Ii Is hard
to believe that inhabited worlds could
exist in the neighborhood of such pair
of suns as that.

WINTER MATCHING.

EVERYTHING Considered, There Is Not Much
Money in 1t.
Eggs are too valuable in winter to be
used for Matching purposes unless one is
confident of securing good hatckes and
of raising the chick, says the Mirror and
Farmer. To use a dozen eggs from
which only six chicks come, and then
lose three of them, means an ezpendi-
ture of four eggs for one chick, and no
one can afford the cost in that respect.
The heaviest loss of chicks is with hens
not with incubators and breeders
and this fact should not be overlooked
II is admitted that in the spri;ig and
summer when the hen has every ting in
her favor she will be more serv.icea bic
than the brOoder, but in the winter,
when cold winds, ice, snow and rains
prevail, the hen has a difficult undertake
ing to care for herself instead of at
tempting to raise brood, and as rule,
the hens are fortunate if they raise one
half of the chicks Matched.
When a hen becomes broody make her
nest in a warm place, and when she
brings off her brood have place pre-
pared for her, under shelter and where
the sunlight can come. Be careful that
the chicks are not exposed or lHecome
chilled, and aim to raise everyone OF
them. In that case the chicks will pay
because the expense of the eggs used
will be reduced by reason of the larger
number of chicks marketed.
