SAYS EVERYBODY is CRAZY
Professor Claims Each Individual Has
Two Distinct Personalities An
tagonistic to Each Other.

"All men are insane on one or more
topics, in many may be noted the dom
nance Of one thought or idea, and If
persisted in will result in insanity"
This statement was made by Prof.
Walter Dill Scott, of Northwestern uni
versity, in recent address before the
students at Garrett Biblical Institute,
at Chicago, which he followed with a
panacea for the blues.
Whenever you feel blue" he said,
.lie down and take an 18-hour sleep.
When you awake you will be cured.
Your secondary personality will have
been given an opportunity to gain the
ascendancy, and the blues will have
disappeared. This is an infallible rem
edy."
Prof. Scott is one Of the accepted an
thorities Of the United States on
psychology. and his address before the
Garrett students was on 1.-THE Psychol-
ogy Of tbs Blues"
1.-The Jekyll-Hyde existence is entire
ly plausible. Many of us live two dis
tinct existences, more or less antago-
nistic to each other. A man may act
at one time entirely different than al
another His thoughts and impress
sions may be entirely different, and
positively opposite, depending entirely
upon whether he is possessed of his
secondary personality or not"

FARMS TO EMPLOYEES.
PENNSYLVANIA RAILROAD MAY
ALLoT GARDENS TO WORKERS.
Plan Has Been Tried in France Where
It Has Proved Successful-Moral
Health and Financial Ben
ef1ts Cited.

Waste places are to be converted
into fruitful farms and railroad en-
ployes of various grades are to become
farmers If the scheme now being in
vestigated by the Pennsylvania rail-
road is found to be feasible. The plan
was suggested by DR.. w. H. Tolman,
of Philadelphia, director of the Amer
lean Institute of Social Service.
ut came about in this way" ex-
planned DR.. Tolman. when was in
France last year was extremely in
terested in the workingmen's gardens
and made an investigation. These
gardens" said DR.. Tolman, ARE an ex-
cellent substitute for the saloon. They
are one of the best counteracting agen-
cies against tuberculosis, and they tend
to make workers more contented, since
man will take pride and satisfaction
in raising his own vegetables.
"a similar movement began in this
country in 1894 when the so-called Pin
gree potato patches were laid out in
Detroit. We followed with the vacant
lot farms in New York, but the land
became too expensive for us to con-
tinue the work here. Philadelphia,
however, has kept up the work, and
This is its eighth successful year. Mr..
Cassatt therefore has an opportunity
to see at first hand how we'll the
scheme works.
81 was present at the midsummer in
spection of vacant lot gardens and
i school gardens in Philadelphia recent
y. Near Logan station, in that city
there are about $50 gardens of that
| kind, which support almost entirely
| that many families. Not one Of the
I, applicants this year has abandoned his
I plot, and there are rs families on the
waiting list. The gardens contain
! about one-fourth of an acre each, an6
N addition to supplying the family
with the greater part of the food sup
! ply, many of them yield a profit o.
from $10o to $3.50 worth of produce"
The terms of apportionment will no
be decided upon until the superin
tendent's report has been made to Mr.
Cassatt.
Dr. Tolman believes that If this grea
railroad finds the idea practicable
will be the starting point for system
Of workmen's gardens in connection

MONUMENTS AT WATERLOO
One Erected to Heroes Who Died There
by the Netherlands, the Other by
the French Government.

On the battle field of Waterloo now
stand two striking monuments erected to
the memory of the thousands of soldiers
whose lives were sacrificed there. For
years there has stood on the top Of q
great mound of earth the figure of lion
marking the spot where the British stood
firm against all of Napoleon's on
slaughts. This was erected by the
Netherlands government in particular
memory Of the prince of Orange, who
fell there.
On June 2s there was dedicated q
monument to the French soldiers on the
ground where the last square of Napol-
cons ole guard was cut down, the fa-
nous corps Of which 1t was said: The
old guards dies, but never surrenders."
This French monument is "the
wounded eagle" It represents huge
bird perched on broken Flagstaff with
the tattered banner Of the guard. One
broken wing hangs helplessly; the other
is spread out in striking defiance, It's
feathers ragged with bullet holes. The
statue was modelled by Gerome.
A number Of noted Frenchmen wit
messed the dedicatory ceremonies.
Edourd Detaille, the military painter.
and Henry Houssaye, the historian, de-
livered addresses.
Nine. Dupuis, centenarian, who still
lives near the battle field, and probably
is the only surviving witness of the
great struggle, participated in the cere-
monies.

But Their, Violins Are Dummies and
They Are There Only for
Their Good Looks.

Berlin is amused over many strange
cases that are occupying the attention
Df the police.
A number of restaurants and other
similar establishments seek to increase
the number Of their visitors by the dis
play Of orchestras composed Of attrac-
tive looking young ladies. The lynx.
eyed police have detected in several
orchestras lady violinists with dummy
violins, who stand in the background
and scrape away in perfect time with
the other musicians, but without pro.
duoing any sounds.
They are utterly ignorant Of the in.
strument, which the public believe
they are seriously playing.
The police regard this method Of
Strengthening orchestras with fascinat-
ing ladies, who are nothing but fair
decedvers, as illegal, as coming within
the provisions Of the law for the sup
preston Of Illicit competition, and so
they are sending test cases to the
courts for decision.

FORTUNE AWAITS A CHEF.
Japanese Youth Who Cooks for Uncle
Same Heir to $50, 900 Through
Death Of His Father.

4. Lane Louder, New York attorney,
10 making an effort to find Tama Yacha-
mitsiu, youthful Japanese who has
been a chef in the United States navy.
and for whom fortune is waiting at
Toxic, his birthplace. According to the
lawyer Yachamitsiu, who comes of a
prominent Toxic family, is heir to $780,,
900 in American money.
The wealth has come to the young
man, who is 20 years old, through the
death of his father, lieutenant in a
japanese infantry regiment. The father
was killed ut the outbreak of the Russo
Japanese war.
Yachamitsiu ran away from home at
the age of Is years, coming to this coun-
try on trading steamer. Soon after
reaching here he entered the United
States navy at San Francisco as cook,
and was assigned to the cruiser Phila-
delphia. This was learned through let
ters which he write home to his parents.
On several occasions money was for
warded here to the youth to defray his
expenses home, but he declined, declar-
ing that he was more pleased with the
United States than he was with his ma
tive country.
After the death of the father, and
when the estate was settled, Attorney
Louder was requested to make a search
for Yachamitsiu. From one of the Jap.
anese cooks, at the League Island nav.
yard at Philadelphia, the lawyer learned
that the missing man was at one time al
League island, but only stayed at the is
land week, when his vessel left. HI
also stated that Yachamitsiu was nov
under an assumed American name, ant
would more than likely be found will
some OF the ships in the South Atlanti
squadron. Lawyer Louder was instruct
ed to make inquiries of the navy depart
ment at Washington.

PLANS DARING TRIP.
IOWA MAN TO FLOAT TO ST.
LOUIS ON A LOG.
Will Start from Keokuk on Journey Of
Over Two Hundred Miles-Over
Fifty Hours Will Be Required
for Perilous Trip.

It has remained for a Keokuk, Ia,
man to originate one of the most uni
que and novel plans yet conceived for
q tour to the Louisiana Purchase ex-
position at st. Louis.
His name is John Mccartney, aged
"a years, an expert logger employed In
one of the large lumber yards here. He
has been logger for number OK
years and is considered one Of the most
experienced lumbermen on the Missis-
sippi river, or even in the logging
camps OF the upper country around
the lakes, in which he has done much
work.
His proposition is to start from Keo-
kuk on plain single log, Of small
size, and standing on the log float
down the Mississippi river. over 200
miles by the river route About the
only equipment he will take will be
q long pike, to be used principally as
q balancing pole, such as rope walk
er uses, but which he thinks may be
used also at times to increase his speed
beyond that of the slow flowing cur
rent, and also in steering his treacher-
GUS and unique mark to landing. 1t
is supposed the river flows at the rate
of four miles per hour, ana at this rate
of speed it will require fraction more
than So hours to complete the novel
and perilous trip.
The intrepid log navigator is con.
fident he can make the trip successful.
ly and prefers a small to large log
claiming that he would rather have his
craft nearly under water from hi
weight than otherwise When advised
to make several landings for rest ant
sleep, he replied that he did not neet
much sleep, that he had gone whole
week without any sleep of consequence
He is, however, likely to make land
ings at Quincy, ILL.,, and Hannibal, Mo.
and possibly at other points.
Preliminaries are already being dis
cussed for the decidedly novel and dan
gerous adventure, but the date o
starting has not yet been selected l
is expected that he will be met at 81
Louis with many boats and an ovation
when he arrives there and has con
cluded his most wondrous Of all tour
to the great exposition.

Many republican statesmen and
newspapers are opposed to continu-
ance of the present enormous expendi-
lures for naval purposes, and yet they
favor or pretend to favor the re-elec-
tion of President Roosevelt. IfRoose-
velt is reelected this country will
have use for just as large navy as it
can build. The president has not
alone proclaimed his overlordship of
the Western Hemisphere, but insists
upon mixing in all the petty disputes
of the old world. He will not be able
to continue that kind of policy for
four more years withoutserious danger
of war, unless we nave a navy large
enough to make it dangerous for any
two or three European powers to
attack us.
II Roosevelt is reelected, the navy
should be increased in every possible
way. twill cost hundreds of millions
OF course to carry out the program,
but that is the only prudent course to
pursue In the event of republican
success next month. By all means
let us be prepared for trouble If
Roosevelt is to be president for four
more years.-Mancheste Democrat.

All Sane Men Favor Reciprocity.

The newspaper press of the world
regardless of nationality, party or
creed favors AID practices reciprocity.
The man and the business house that
favors it with patronage however
meager and niggardly it has kind
word for. This is reciprocity. The
man with ample means but
whose party spirit is too ran
corous to tolerate paper which does
not adore his methods political or
otherwise, is trea ted with like disdain
by the man of the newspaper. This
too is reciprocity, but not of helpful
kind to either party. The lawyer, the
doctor, the tradesman, the merchant,
manufacturer, who offers his services,
his work, his goods or his manufac-
lures through advertising in the news
papers, only to men of his political
belief, ignores one half of every COM
munity and often accepts and uses
the poorest means of reachipg'the pub.
lie. But even this is better than the
one who ignores the press entirely.
This indifference is apt to be met with
like indifference by the newspapers,
but this is species Of reciprocity
from whose effect both suffer.
The great dailies Of the country,
whose stock is owned largely by the
trusts and the corporations, espouse
their cause directly or indirectly, re-
ceive from them large annual adver-
Using contracts at what to the coun-
try press would be fabulous prices.
This too is reciprocity.
And SO among individuals in society
and in entire communities, the friend.

changes are all in evidence showing
the existence and the practice Of reel.
procity as the prevailing feature
among all peoples. Favors are ex'
changed for favors, friendships fol
friendships, products that one car
spare and don't need for others that he
needs and can obtain by the exchange,
Some years ago while working up
scheme to obtain the @. M. & st. Pau
road through Howard county, in com
pany with Aug. Beadle, he came upor
an old gentleman who had been in hi!
employ but unfortunately for himself
had always been variance with hi
neighbors. Mr.. Beadle not thinking
Of this, asked how he and the old lady
were getting along. The reply how
ever covered the other feature, mas
much as it was "that he had found
out that person could get along
without a father or mother, without
brothers or sisters, but he must have
neighbors.'
And so it is with individuals, witt
communities, with states and will
nations, they, too "must have neigh
bors." And these can only be obtain
ed and retained through reciprocal
neighborly and friendly relations, SO
cial and otherwise. II there is an
other method the ages have failed t
