HOW TO LOVE
AND AVOID DIVORCE.
Bishop FalIows Has a Remedy
10 Unite Estranged Wives and
Husbands.

Bishop Samuel Fallows, of the Re-
formed Episcopal Church. who found.
ed Christian Psychology, has taken
another plunge into the occult. He
announces a remedy to unite estranged
husbands and wives and kill off the
divorce evils. 1t is to be done by
suggestion and auto-suggestion. He
told all about II in an address on the
Psychology of Doubt"
The Bischop declared ne had used
the method successfully. He also
gave an instance in which II had been
used by a Chicago lawyer to prevent
a divorce between a man and wife.
To begin with, when a man or woman
desires to win back his or her mate,
the mind must be kept in a receptive
condition. The Bishop continues:
zone cannot believe unless he puts
himself in the position to believe;
one cannot love unless one puts him
self in the position to love; one can
not continue to love unless one Wills
to continue to love. OF course, we
cannot will to love and then love, or
Will to believe and then believe.
What the will can do is to create
by auto-suggestion a will In this sub
consciousness to continue in love or
to believe. This l make use of in my
efforts to reunite people who have
entered into the holy bonds of matri-
mony and who think that they have
ceased to love each other. / have
never before made public what / say
in these private conversations, but l
will do so tonight to illustrate my
point.
"The first thing to do when one of
these persons comes to me thinking
that he or she has ceased to love is
to set the will in operation to bring to
the sub-consciousness a consciousness
of the past. 1t is idle to say, You
must love one another. No amount
of will can bring that about; but the
will can summon recollection.
al say to the troubled one, IL a
woman, Go back over your whole
life. Go back and reflect on the time
that you were being wooed and won.
Did you take great magnifying glass
then to look for faults? Were you
happier than now? They say that
love is blind, but this Is to be taken
in limited sense as blind to faults.
Nothing in the whole world is more
keen sighted to see good qualities.
You are blind to the good and taking
a magnifying glass to the faults. Go
back into the past and think of the
way you sacrificed and toiled to make
the home. Recall the good times you
have had together
I'm this way is created by auto
suggestion the will to continue in
love, which may prove more power
full than the false belief that they
cannot love
This same method can bring about
marriage"
Bishop Fallows concluded with
:hese epigrams
Love once and you must love al
ways. Love cannot be killed once it
is instilled. There is no earthly
power that can make two people fall
in love with each other. If two peo-
pie really love each other once that
love can always be revived. Deep in
their hearts they will always love
one another. Divorces are but the
'fmaxes of half-hearted battles

Audubon a Missouri Grocer.

1t is not generally remembered that
the worldwide reputation of Audu-
bon as a naturalist, incidentally, is
due to his failure to establish himself
permanently as Missouri grocery
merchant and dealer in the best
brands of Kentucky whisky.
In 1910 he and Ferdinand Rozler,
of Ste. Genevieve, loaded a keelboat
at Louisville, Ky, with 80 barrels
of whisky and groceries and started
down the Ohio and Mississippi to Ste.
Genevieve to open a grocery store.
The trip was made during the winter,
and the streams were so full of ice
that the boat was drawn up against
the bank and winter quarters were
established just below Cape Girar-
deau, When Ste. Genevieve was
reached, after the opening of naviga-
tion. the firm of audubon g. Rozier"
opened their store and did a pros
porous business. But the business
was done by Rozier, for Audubon pre-
ferred the woods to the counter and
devoted more of his time to sketching
and stuffing birds than he did to mar
keting the $40 barrels of good Ken
lucky bourbon, or any groceries. This
led to a dissolution of the partner
ship. On April II, 1911, Audubon,
convinced of his unfitness for busi'
ness. sold out to Rozier and took up
the work for which he was better
fitted than any one who had lived
before or who has lived since, and

BETTER PURE FOOD LAWS.

Harrisburg Especially Dairy and
Food Commissioner Foust's annual
report, which was just made public,
devotes considerable space to the ne
cessity for better laws regulating the
sale of milk and ice cream. He sug-
gests that a State standard for but
ter fats be established by laws
Mr. Foust says that he will have
prepared for presentation to the Leg
islature a law making it Illegal to
offer for sale any milk or cream
which has been skinned or to which
water has been added in any guam
tity, and that a standard of IS per
cent. of butter fats be fixed for
cream.
He attacks the present laws COW
ering the sale of these articles and
declares that the growing traffic in
ice cream makes it necessary for
some laws to be enacted to cover the
sanitary surroundings of ice cream
manufactures.
The recommendation for laws re-
gulating sale of alcoholic and non
alcoholic liquors, storage of eggs and
poultry and restriction of other foods
are renewed Evidently the expert
ence with the new pure food act,
approved June 1, 1907, which re-
pealed the more drastic act of 1895,
has not been entirely satisfactory nor
as effective as had been anticipated.
The commissioner will endeavor to
have amendments introduced, chang

thorities to institute criminal instead

BANK THEFT GROWING.

Pittsburg Especially - Receiver
Robert Lyons. OF the Allegheny Ma
tional Bank, while Just fairly started
In the examination of the affairs OF
the bank, is of the opinion that the
shortage will be larger than the
amount charged against William
Montgomery, the former cashier, but
is not prepared to say Just what the
amount Will be.
Despite the fact that a statement
OF the affairs of the bank has been
concealed from the public, some in
side facts were disclosed showing the
embezzelment to have been the most
complete cleaning out of an institu-
tion in the history of bank scandals
in this State, or probably in this
country.
The facts show that after every
potable asset of the bank has been
exhausted, including the building. its
contents. stocks, collateral, etc, there
will still be a deficit of more thau
$6o0, 1000. BY assessing all stock
holders 100 per cent, according to
the individual liability act, this
amount can be reduced by about
one-half, leaving 100000 to be sup
piled by the bondsmen. This means
an assessment on the latter of about
15 per cent.
Although 1t is admitted that a
number of the bondsmen and stock
holders will be driven to the wall and
left penniless, it now appears that
there will be little loss to the de.

A number of the stockholders will
be unable to meet the 100 per cent
assessment, and this will reduce the
amount that would otherwise have
accrued in this manner.

John? II is indeed pathetic to see
how he loves you, and yet you pay
him so little attention"
Decoration Day was drawing near,
and celebration was being planned
to take place at the town hall. There
we're to be speeches and singing, and
famous speaker was coming up
from the nearby city to address the
old soldiers. Uncle John was up
early that morning. He was to march
In the parade with the rest of the
Post, and seats were to be reserved
for them In the hall.
"Olive. you must CO." urged her
mother at the last moment, and final
ly, reluctantly enough, Olive consent
ed. But as she took seat with her
mother In the hall, festooned with its
flags, its bunting, It's flowers, little
culver of patriotism swept over her
for the first time. Memorial Day did
mean something, and when, In few
moments, the old soldiers filed in,
most of them old men with white hair
and trembling steps, tear shone on
her long lashes, for Olive was not
wilful girl. only a very thoughtless
one. After the singing and the re-
peating OF Llncoln's speech at Gettys-
burg, the speaker arose, an erect man
with keenly intellectual face full OF
force and strength. He began with a
tribute to the gray-haired veterans
before him; told how, when a small
boy, he first became patriot by lis
tening to one-armed soldier In the
city hall of Boston give the history
OF the different flags gathered there
and the battles they had been in. He
spoke of Lincoln, that tall, plain, an
gular man, who, at the firing of the
guns at Fort Sumter, took the posi-
tion he did. Has 1t ever occurred
to you," he went on, that Lincoln
might have acted a little too hastily
or little too late? But no; the
psychological moment came. He
seized it, and the war went on to a
victorious close" He spoke of Grant,
Sheridan, Sherman-and then he
paused a moment. May l ask" he
added, "if there is anyone here who
was in that march to the sea-that
famous, memorable march, now
passed into history?"
Olive sat still. She wished some
one of those old veterans sitting near
had been there. And then, In the
hush and stiffness, someone arose.
1t was Uncle John, old and bent and
feeble, but with faint flush upon
his withered cheeks.
"Ah!" cried the speaker. II con-
gratulate this Post"
And then in the twinkling of an
eye, handkerchiefs waved and hands
clapped enthusiastically. 1t was all
over In a minute, but how everyone
enjoyed 1t! And as Uncle John sat
down, 10! the years had rolled back.
