1t was a big joke to have the paint on
Winners clothes. AS Wilmer did not
cheer up very much over the young
mans hilarity, the latter got down to
serious thought, and said:
Now, Wilmer, l have been wanting
to see you for weeks. You may have
forgotten about helping me start my
truck garden a few years ago, but
1t has been quite a success, and my
health is ten times as good as 1t was
at that time. l got down to eating
plain food and using a little honey
every day. The work in the truck
garden gave me good exercise, and
while I have some money ahead to-
day, my improved health Is more i'm.
portant than the money. | wish you
would tell me where to put 5000 at 4
per cent interest. / have it with me
now, and | want to do something with
it, and you are just the one to advise
me-"
Wilmer asked the young man to let
him think a few minutes, and they
stood there by the curbstone until
Wilmer invited him to come into a
restaurant and have some lunch.
There he told him the story of the
bridge and how he was situated. Then
he offered the young man 5 per cent
interest for the money for six months.
The young man replied: wilmer,
| am willing to give you the money
for nothing, both principal and inter.
est. If it's OF any use to you, because
my success to-day is due to your
kindness"
Wilmer insisted on the 5 per cent
and written recognition of the loan,
New clothes were purchased, the lee,
ture was Il success, the bridge was
finished, and all the debts paid.
Now there is a little house on the
wood-lot, and no happier home in the
world.-From Honey.Money Stories.

Wilmer had been a school teacher,
but was now looking for something
different in the way of opportunity,
and the trouble was he didn't know
what he was looking for. He owned
several acres Of fine woods or timber
land, neal a deep ravine where there
was a big, busy tannery. One day
when the clouds over his hopefulness
were the thickest, the old tanner met
him, and said: wilmer, | will give
you ten dollars a day for the use OF
a bridge across this ravine. You
build the bridge and keep 1t in repair,
and I'll begin paying you from the
first day It Ia ready TO use"
This was the unknown something
that Wilmer had been getting ready
for.
He used up a great deal of the tim
Der on his land, and mortgaged the
land. and had done everything he
could to finish the bridge, but it was
not quite finished. He needed some
o money, and he didn't know
where to get it. One thing he had de-
Clutu noJ 10 40. dnN lndJ was W dSh
the old tanner for money in advance.
While trying to figure out a solu-
ton to his p~erplexity, he got a letter
asking him TO deliver a $25 lecture at
n teachers institute in the mex coun-
ty. This brought a good-sized ray
Of hope to him. and the next day he
went to the county seat of his own
locality to do a little business, and
while walking by the front of a store
which vas being painted, a painter
accidentally spattcred up his clothes
in a ruinous manner. and they were
tho clothes he intended TO lecture in,
and he had no money for new ones.
What to do was beyond his magma

met a young man who was full of en-
thusiasm and very glad TO meet him,
and this young man seemed to think

WILL
HANG
FRIDAY
Ex-MayOr Of CharIOttsyilI is
to Hang Tomorrow

Staunton, Va, Feb. 9.--Everything
is In readiness for the execution here
tomorrow of J. Samuel MeCue, former
mayor of Charlottesville, convicted of
the murder of his wife. Owing to the
prominence of the condemned man and
the general attention attracted to his
case there is great demand for tick
cts to witness the hanging.
The crime for which the ex-mayor is
to pay the death penalty occurred on
the night of September of last year
Mr.. and Mrs. McCue had gone to
church, returning home about o'clock
in the evening. Shortly afterward
Mrs. McCue's dead body, clad in
nightrobe, was found in bath tub
filed with water. Mr.. McCue told those
who came in that someone had entered
the house upon their return from
church; that he had been knocked sense
less and his wife probably killed. An
investigation led to the arrest on the
charge of murder Of the man who only
four days before had retired from the
mayoralty of Charlottesville.
Mrs. McCue had received the con-
tents of shotgun in her breast, suf-
feient wound to cause instant death,
but in addition she had been struck a
heavy blow on the head, cutting an
ear nearly in two.
Mr.. McCue at first laid the crime to
a stable boy, and offered $1,000 reward
for evidence to convict the murderer
The day after he offered the reward
he was himself arrested for the crime.
At the trial which followed several
witnesses testified that the married life
If Mr.. and Mrs. McCue had been mar

nation About Hyp-
nOtiSm

AN honest man hypnotized is still
an honest man, q kindly man remains
kindly, refined man refined. In short,
considered in its ethical relations, hyp-
notism cannot be used by designing
person as means to induce subject
to do anything that is repugnant to his
normal nature"
The preceding was said by Prof.
Thomas c. Nye, the celebrated hypno-
tist at the Willamette Hotel, where he
is stopping, in preparation for his pub
lie demonstration to be given tonight
in the Grand opera house.
CT have often marveled at the ease
with which the reading public is gulled.
Du Maurier wrote a book that went to
an edition of a million copies. Yet
that book is unscientifc and utterly
perverts tho true conception of hypno-
tism. Hypnotism does not alter ono
natural characteristic. 1t adds no ele1
ment of badness; it subtraets no ingre-
dent of good. 1t is merely the power
to suggest that the subject do some
thing that would not be repugnant to.
the person in normal state. 1t is quite
as far from possible to make an honest
hypnotic subject commit crime as to
make an apple tree bear potatoes ItI
is equally absurd to base such a work
as Du Maurier's Trilby on the power
over her moral nature such as is there
in assigned to the man who held her in
his power.
Furthermore, no hypnotist can COM
pei subject to do anything, even to
drop into the hypnotic sleep, against
the subject s will. There must be not
only complete acquiescence by the sub
ject, but power of mental concentra-
tion, for not every person is able to
subject himself to the hypnotic spell.
"Du Marrier certainly bilked the
world of readers who went wild over
the presumed power of the bad man
Loengali who made Trilby do while
hypnotized what Trilby would not do
when not hypnotized.
However, hypnotism is not only a
dry scientific treaties or psychology. 1t
is also "a thing that can be used to
make people laugh at the antics of the
persons and do not hold
that up as the prime essential, yet l
