BELIEVE IN YOURSELF.
stimulating Advice for Those who
Are Lacking in Physical
Courage.

A writer in the Woman's Home Com
panion gives some very stimulating
advice to timd people, and suggests a
practical means of teaching ones self
bravery. He says:
Believe in yourself That is the
way to make other people believe in
you, and 1t is the way to become what
you want to be. It is the people who
have believed thoroughly in themselves
and their missions who have made the
world believe In them.
1T is interesting in this connection
to recall the observations Of a certain
psychologist who was experimenting
with chickens. His story Of timid
chick and how ii was trained to BRAY
cry points a lesson to the difident.
This chick was so timid that he ran
from the least intrusion. II another
chick picked at him, he ran. II he
was jostled by his brothers in a scram-
bic for food. he withdrew from the
scramble out Of pure fear. But the
psychologist set about teaching him
to believe in himself. BY enticing the
other chickens with food he made them
run from the timid chick. Presently
the chick began to run after them; and
as they ran away when he chased, he
believed that they were afraid of him,
and courage famed in his breast.
Little by little he got braver, and he
chased harder He was so set up that
he began to attack the others in front
as we'll as In the rear He was SO
used to having them run from him
that he had forgotten what 1t was to
be afraid. He became a fighter, and
in the end the Others ran from him
in earnest. He was just the same
chicken, so far as his physical powers
were concerned-that is, the same in
relation to the other chicks. Only one
thing had changed-now he believed
in himself, and the henyard was his
oyster.
Human beings are not very differ
ent from chickens. II you are afraid
Of the world. the world will misuse
you. If you march valiantly forward,
il viii retreat before you. II you take
the word fail out Ct your bright lexi-
con, You do not fail. 1t all lies in what
you believe you can do Believe, then,
in yourself Never fear failure or
hesitate to do thing because you
think you would not succeed Just
grid yourself up, and 20 after what you
want, and in nine cases out OF ten you
Will get it,

THAT "NIGGER" STEAL,
Cookson Makes Statement Showing
hts Connection With Measure.
Cookson. |. 7 July 27, 1870.


Cookson, /. T July 27, 1908.
To the Public:
As some Of the campaign ro
manoers have by word Of mouth
and in print tried to convey the
idea that | was mixed up in what
is styled the "Negro Deal and
Steal" and that | was responsible
for it's being possible, if not somix
ed | thought II best to address the
public about the matter.
| say that sny man that direct
ly charges me with ever receiving
one cent from the deal tells what
he knows is unqualifedly false.
And | challenge anyone to make
such a charge over his signed
manual, SO he can be branded as
slanderer. Those who by insinu-
alton and lodging behind "they
say" are as bad as the original
sIanderers. That matter was in-
vestigated by the authorities of
the U. S. Government. Ana 1t
was also investigated by the
Cherokee council until interIerred
with by Chief Mayes who stopped
the investi -ation by adjourning
the council. Nowhere in either
investigation did anyone couple
my name in any manner with the
plunder Of the Cherokee treasury
or the Cherokee Freedmen.
So an intelligent public will re-
alize that the campaign liar on the
eve of election should not receive
consideration while lodging re-
sponsibility under the law.
1t will be remembered that dur
ing the campaign Of 1895 that both
for chief pledged their
parties to effect an amicable com
promise Of the freedmen suit and
thereby get rid Of the Wallace
Roll which our people regarded as
unjust to both Indians and Chero
kee Freedmen, because It had
hundreds OF fraudulent names up
on il.
50 when Chief Mayes urged the
National Council to agree to
compromise we did so. At that
lime no one suspected any con
spiracy against the nation or the
freedmen snd upon bis (Mayes)
representations and that of the
delegation, | did what all patriotic
Jherokees were trying to do and
voted for what we all then be-
ieved to be the best measure tc
,ring about the termination Of
hat suit. / remain,
Very respectfully yours,

No funnier play than "Reuben in

on. The piece abounds In absurd sit
uations in which Reuben always lands
on top. Imagine a real good-natured
farmer in New York for the first time
and everybody ready to give him the
glad hand and then part him from his
money. The roof garden scene is side
splitting, and the jealous husband in
his hunt for the man whom he thinks
has stolen away his wife's affections,
gives ample room for the comedians
and pretty girls, of which they take
full advantage. First-c Glass specialties
are interspersed through the piece by
clever vaudeville stars. Elegant scenic
effects are shown, and to sum it all up.
