Of persons born to fade away and to

CROWD OUT YOUR FEAR THOUGHTS.
Will Power Should Be Exerted in Keep
ing the Mind Free.

The principle of crowding out fear
thoughts by buoyant. hopeful, confident
thoughts can be applied to all the many
kinds of fear that daily and hourly beset
US. AT first it will be hard to change the
current of thought, and to cease to dwell
on somber and depressing things. An aid
in the process is often advisable. A sud-
den change of work to something reauir-
ing concentration of mind will often act
as switch. Recalling some humorous or
pleasant incident will sometimes drive
dull care away" as an old song has il.
In the last analysis, all fear resolves
itself into fear of death, and writers on
the means of getting rid Of fear dwell es-
peclally ON this basic form. Death will,
perhaps, always be mystery, but, what
ever view of it be taken, logical analy-
SIS Will remove the terror of it. especially
Of that form which makes lifeless human
flesh repulsive and terrible object. We
think the feeling that Hindoos have about
the nesh OF animals very queer, since to
US this is most appetizing food. Our own
fear of human corpse is just as foolish
as the Hlndoor fear, and, if we would rid
ourselves of fear, we must teach our
selves so. Familiarity with the thing
feared is always advisable, and frequent
~ is quite sufficient. We know this to be
true with horses, and have only to apply
the matter to our own foolish fears. Ho-
race Fletcher advises even n course in
hospital dissecting room if nothing else
will dissipate the unreasoning fear of Il
dead body.
Whatever may lie beyond the tomb"
says w. e. III. Lecky. "the tomb itself
is nothing to us. The narrow prison
house. the gloomy pomp and the hdeous-
ness of decay are known to the living,
and the living alone. Ply too common
Illusion of the Imagination, men picture
themselves as consciously dead-going
through tire process of corruption, and
aware of it: imprisoned, with knowl-
edge of the fact, in the most hideous of
dungeons. Endeavor earnestly to erase
this illusion from your mind; for it lies
at the root of the fear of death, and il
is one of the worst sides of medieval
and much modern art that it tends t.
strengthen il. Nothing, If we truly real-
ize it, is less real than the grave. We
should be no more concerned with the
after fate of our discarded bodies than
with that of the hair which the barber
has cut off. The sooner they are resolved
into their primitive elements. the better.
The imagination should never be suffered
to dwell upon their decay"
Whatever the means. the task of con-
quering fear Is the most important in
Misunderstanding, and it viii repay eff
fort. Not until this is done-effectively,
finally done-can the human soul take its
proper place, and progress to higher and
yet higher planes of Dower.-SuccesS.

AN ANCIENT SNUFF MILL.
Old Building That Furnished Sneezes for
Colonial Gentry.


Two ancient snuff mills on Crum Greek,
near Leiperville, Pa. have long caused
conjecture as to how it happened that the
man of many industries should introduce
the manufacture of snuff in this vicinity
at that early date. says correspondent
of the Philadelphia Inquirer. Although
snuff-pinching and snuff-dipping were
common indulgences in those ancient
days it was unusual TO find mills for its
manufacture so far north at that time.
The fact that Thomas Leiper, who
came to America from Scotland in 1Tti4,
and when he was a boy of 10 landed in
Virginia. the land of tobacco, and be-
came interested in the tobacco business
before he came to Philadelphia, explains
the existence of these two old snuff mills
near the middle of the Eighteenth cen.
fury.
Soon after he settled. in PHILADELPHIA
Leiper established tobacco warehouse
at 8 North Water street. In 1774 Thom-
as Leiper became snuff manufactures
ON an extensive scale, and having located
at 274 Market street, where he became n
famous dealer in snuff and tobacco-those
comforting essentials to the colonial
gentry-he began to increase his pur.
chases along Crum Greek and erect his
famous mills. even before his interest in
stone qnarries and his extensive inven-
lions in the Crum Greek valley.
Roth OF these ancient snuff mills are
rooiny two-story buildings with sloping
roof. capable of being changed into com
Portable dwelling houses after the decline
of the snuff industry. And while one of
the buildings served as roomy home
stead for nearly half century, the other
has slowly fallen into ruin since its
period of manufacturing usefulness, and
nj last both the ancient buildings are
crumbling.
