Believers In Vco-Dooisrh.

Houma Courier.
1t is both strange and pitiful to
see sensible people protesting
belief in the efficacfous operations
of the little ball of conjuration
prepared by a voo-hoo doctor.
There are people in this parish,
and We regret to say there are ap-
parently intelligent people, who
allow themselves to be carried by
a supesstitious dread of beifig voo-
dooed. If they are sick os ailing
and some one suggests that they
are voo-dooed, life thereafter is
excruciatingly miserable.
1t is this superstitiois dread that
often does the harm, and not any
mystic or magic composition of
the voo-doo conjuration ball. A
person, ard especially a sick per-
son, can brood over anything until
he either dies or goes crazy. The
strain of constant dread on the
mind of person will eventually
be followed Iy direful results,
whether or nos there txists any
d q
reasonable cause for the dread.
Superstition, the fetch of the
voo-dooists, the creature of mid
night ignorance, must continue to
hooble, in its imp-like fashion, out
of the light of the Nineteenth Cen
ry sun of reason into the darkest
corners of human nature.
An intelligent mind should af-
ford no hiding place for supersti-
tion. The hoo doo's coniure ball
hidden away in pillow or mat
tress should cause no more alarm
than dirt dauber's mud abode on
the head board of the bed One
contains just about as much. con.
juring power as the other. -,
All who allow the dread of the
conjure ball, or the voo-doo con.
coction to frighten them should
rid themselves as speedily as pos.
sible of such superstitious foolish
ness.
