PRACTICAL MENTAL SCIENCE
Hold In Your Mind the Picture of
Your Desire.

Hold In Your Mind the Picture of
Your Desire.
When an artist makes painting.
when a carpenter makes a house. if he
be a successful artist or carpenter. be
first forms in his mind an image of his
work as completed; then he constructs
1t accordingly in visible material. Some
times he finds reason to modify the
pattern as the work develops. but it al
ways develops according to an idea
which is in his mind
What do you desire most on this
earth? Think carefully If your hearts
wish is one that will bring harm to
another. drop it, for it will prove dis
astrous To yourself. Do not, on the
other hand. consider what it is your
duty TO wish for, but just what you do
wish for. You are the person directly
interested.
Having decided precisely what you
want. whether a sum of money or
something else, make a picture of it
in your mind and demand that il be-
come yours and claim it steadfastly
as yours. If you can. take a certain
quiet hour or half hour of the day for
seeing the object mentally aud claim
ing it. This is only emphasizing the
method the artist and carpenter EN-
ploy every day DO you desire a high
er place in the world? Demand il en-
phatically and steadily See Yourself
as already occupying that place. sur
rounded by all the belongings apper-
tanning thereto
Suppose You want. let us say. a gold
watch. Like the artist and the car
penter in their field. make a mental
picture of the watch. exactly the kind
you want, and demand that it he yours.
Carry the picture with you. See that
watch in your hand or in your peck
ct, now here now there, but always
the same watch If you hold faithful
ly to the picture, demanding at the
same time that the thing come to you.
sooner or later it will come to you.
This does not mean that you shall
drop your work on the material plane
and sit down and make mental pie
lures without any hustling. Both hus-
tie and keep the picture steadily in
your mind
There is nothing farfetched or spir-
itualiStic or mysterious in this mental
pcturing with determined will. We
are merely making plain and simple
analysis of the method whereby all
things are accomplished. 1t is the
word made flesh, that is all-from ev-
erlasting to everlasting the method OF
creation The pictures. good or evil,
constructive or destructive. that you
hold in your mental atmosphere, some
times even unconsciously. are what
materialize as actual events or objects.
This is not Christian Science or new
thought or faith cure; it is just plain
common sense. MARY SMILEY.

President Hears Arguments From Sew

Washington, Nov. 19.-The presi-
dents time during the day was occu-
pied largely in the discussion of reci-
procity Senator Cullom of Illinois
and Representative Dalzell of PennsyI
vania had something to say to him
upon the subject and delegation Of
agricultural implement manufacturers
consisting of James Deering of Chi
cago, A. B. Farquhar of York, Pa, and
F. G. Barker of New York, presented
a memorial strongly urging that some
thing be done. The delegation told
the president that, in its opinion, the
time for action had come. Reciprocity
had been talked and preached about
for years and unless a decisive step
was taken now which would effect
something the whole subject might as
we'll be abandoned. The members of
the delegation said they had no par
sticular, interest in any Of the treaties
but thought, taken together, that the
French treaty more nearly represented
the best possibilities in the way cf
reciprocity and that if it could be rati-
fled a distinct victory would be won.
Senator Crllom, after his interview
with the president, talked in the same
vein. His attitude is considered i'm
portant as il is now practically set
tied that he will be at the head of the
foreign relations committee.

KENTUCKY MINE TROUBLES.

Non-Union Men.
Madisonville, Ky, Nov. 19.-The
man who was killed in the battle at
Providence Sunday, Garrett Givens, is
a negro living here. Bud Couch, NOR
tally wounded, is also a negro, and
both were union men in the attacking
parity. Three ',f the wounded were
non-union men, negroes who were
guarding the mine. There is a report
that two wounded men were taken to
Morgantown and one to Sabree, and
that these are all dead, having been
shot while attacking the mines.
This report lacks verifcation, though
it is believed that the men who made
the attack suffered very greatly from
the fight
In the battle of Sunday morning at
least 1000 shots we're fired. EARLY
Monday morning a portion of the Mad
isonville company and some of the
HoDkinsville company went to Prov
idence. The men are under command
of Captain Thomas. The town is now
under guard by the soldiers.
Not only at Providence but all over

unrest and no one would be surprised
at what a day may bring forth. More

SIGNED AT WASHINGTON.
New Hay-Pauncefote Treaty Ready for
the Senate,


Washington, Nov. 19.-The new
Hay y-Pauncefote treaty was signed dur
ing the day. Secretary Hay for the
United States and Lord Pauncefote,
the British ambassador, for Great
Britain.
This treaty is intended to replace
the first Hay>P Pauncefote treaty. That
convention was amended SO extensive
ly by the United States senate at it's
last session that the British govern
ment declined ito ratify it. Within a
few weeks negotiations began afresh
between Secretary Hay and Lord
Pauncefote which have just resulted
in the signature of the new treaty,
drawn with special reference to the OBJ.
jections found by the senate with the
first treaty. From due sense of the
courtesy which must be observed to-
wards the United States senate wher-
ever a treaty is concerned, the state
department is estopped from making
public the text of the new convention
and that will remain secret until the
senate itself shall break the seal of
confidence. It Is said at the state de-
partment that the various publications
which have been made of the alleged
text of the treaty are all erroneous
and conjectural, though, in view of
the rather free admissions that have
been made of the purposes of the ne
gotiators, it has been possible, by the
use of the text of the first treaty, to
construct one similar in general terms
to the new convention.

ONE DEAD, OTHER DYING.
Mother and Son Take Morphine at
MinneapoIiS.


Minneapolis, Nov. 19.-With hands
clasped together Mrs Sarah Nordeman
and her son Knut Birger Nordeman
each took a dose of morphine in their
room at 256 Thirteenth avenue south.
Both were weary of battling with
the world and had decided to die.
The son has been removed to the
city hospital, where he is in serious
condition. The mother died "a hours
later.
The story of the two is peculiarly
sad one. Knut Birger is "a years old
and well educated. He had studied
four years at the University of Texas.
The mother is SO years old and has
been a widow 13 years. The two came
to this country from Sweden five years
ago. They have been in Minneapolis
but four weeks.
In their eyes society as constituted
presented too great an obstacle in the
matter of making living. Both had
high ideals. They had studied society
in all it's phases, and had decided that
1t opened no avenues to item. There
was top much material greed in the
world to suit this mother and son, and
SO they decided to die together. They
hoped that the next world would be
more perfect.

labels of Aug. "a and Sept. 80, 1901.
The presence of tetanus toxin in the
diphtheria antitoxin shows negligence

Canal REPORT READY
Report of the Isthmian Canal Com
mission Emphatically Favors
the Nicaragua Route
Two Reasons Given for Preference
One Diplomatic and the Other
the Cost.
Alleged Text Of the New Canal Treaty
With England is Speculated
Upon Much.

Washington, Nov. 19.-Tne ictnmlan
canal commission has signed it's report
and it will be handed to President
Roosevelt this week.
It will follow the same lines as the
preliminary report Of last winter, and
with Important changes in the esti-
mates.
The estimated cost Of the Nicaragua
canal in the preliminary report was
5000, $40 900. The final report shows a
saving of about s12,O00,000.
The site of the big dam has been
changed from San Carlos to Conchuda,
and in this item alone there is a. saving
of between $3,OO0,000 and s4,000,000.
The final report enphatically in
dorses the Nicaragua route as prefera-
BILE to the one at Panama. This selec-
ton is made for two general reasons.
The physical condition and geograph-
ical position of the Nicaragua route
are regarded as superior. The lack
Of a definite proposition and legal and
diplomatic difficulties in the way of the
transfer of the Panama scheme to the
United States are considered insur-
| mountable. A full investigation OF
both the Nicaragua and Panama routes
| will be shown.
Long correspondence between the
commission and Panama men will he
given in full, and estimates of the cost
Of buying the Panama property rights
are made from long statement fur
nished by M. Hutin as to the Panama
company's estimates of the value of its
property.
This correspondence will show the
Panama men never made a definite
proposition, and will sustain the con
tention that their sole object appar
emily was to gain time by delaying
final action by the United States upo1
the canal question.
AS to the value of what the Panama
company has in the way of work done
machinery and material on hand AND
concessions held, the only estimate the
| commission has been able to get is
that of 100000.
The cost of completing the Panama
canal is put at $144,O0o,0O0.
This makes a total for the Panama
ditch of 1858, 900, or s64,000,00O in
| favor of the Nicaragua route.
