STRAIGHT AND CROOKED THINKING.
AS a man thinketh In his heart 20
10 he"
The foregoing Scripture has two
sides-a simple and mysterious side.
The simple side-a man makes or
mars himself by thinking; the mys-
FERROUS side-how does he do it?
Leaving to the learned the mysteri.
GUS side, let US lay down two PROPOSE
tons:
1. Straight thinking Is conducive to
health, success and happiness.
2. Crooked thinking viii produce dis.
ease. failure and misery.
The proof Of these statements Is in
the demonstration Of them. They are
workable propositions. They make
good on trial. And that Ia why they
are in the book. They are true not be-
cause they are in the book: they are In
the book because they are true.
Thoughts are things"

piness by mentally decreeing the con.
ditions that make happiness.
On the other hand
| A man can think himself into fail.
ure. misery, disease. Men are doing
that every day. One can fix the image

about. Thousands do. They lessen
their natural resistance to disease by
fearful thoughts and literally make
their bodies susceptible to the very
things they fear. They do not under
stand that in most cases they can drive
away their indisposition by holding
firmly in mind the opposite thought.
OF course there are limitations t.
this power. One Scripture declares
that man cannot by thinking add .
single cubit to his height. Some fanat
ical things may be done and some fad
practiced in the name Of mind cure.
But
The world at large IL Just beginning
to fnd out the tremendous potency o.
mind properly applied. 1t is just be
ginning to realize that strong thinking
makes strong men, or, az we have pu
It, straight thinking makes straigh
men.
Sin itself il simply weak thinking.
Nothing is better established thai
that you can think yourself into vital
successful living or into moral, menta
or physical invalidism.

Hold Wheat for 80 Gents

. Davenport, Wash.-At a meeting
os the Davenport Farmers union
Saturday it was decided to hold all
of the wheat controlled by the men,
bers for 80 cents a bushel.
This will probably mean a consid-
cradle wait. At the present time the
price is firm at IS cents for blue
stem and IS cents for club. The
wheat is coming in to the ware
houses steadily, but there is little
selling. The crop, at the prices be-
ing paid and anticipated, will net
the ranchers nearly an average
amount.

An Instructive Lecture
Course

Mrs. Jean Morris Ellis finished
a very successful series Of lectures
at the NJ. E. church, South, last
Monday evening. She talked to a
crowded house every evening, and
received the best of attention dur
ing her lectures. The public read
ings of prominent citizens was al
ways interesting and instructive.
On Friday evening Mrs. Ellis
lectured on "Love, Courtship, and
Marriage, or How to get along
with Your Mother-in law" This
was perhaps her best lecture, and
the large crowd that was present
demonstrated the fact that people
here are confident in the lady's
ability to handle her subject.

WHY THEY SLEEP IN CHURCH.
Hypnotism, Not Drowsiness, Declared
to Be the Cause.

"Churchgoers don't sleep in church.
They undergo an hypnotic trance.
The soothing voices and mild music
and monotonous recitative of a church
service put forth powerful hypnotic
influences, and that is why the pews
resemble railroad track in the
abundance of their sleepers.'
The speaker, hypnotist, banged
the table yehemently.
Don't laugh" he said. ITS true.
Hypnotism, not drowsiness, is what
makes you sleep in church. Through
your auditory nerve sound waves are
passed to your brain that are as ef-
fective as though professional hyp-
notist had made them. Sound, you
know, is the newest and best hyp-
motto.
"At first, in the church service, the
periodicity of the wave alterations is
short. There is a little speaking,
then more music. And just when you
are getting properly luled the clergy
man, in a modulated. agreeable. sooth-
ing voice, speaks on and on and on
and you begin to nod. You are, hyp.
notically speaking, entranced.
THE average church service Is 3
scientifically correct hypnotic instru-
ment. No wonder, then, IT puts many
of us to sleep"

DEATH OF BISHOP FOWLER.
Great Methodist Divine auceumbs to
Heart Failure.

New York-The Rev. Charles H.
Fowler, bishop of the Methodist E'pis-
copal church. died at his home here
Friday.
Bishop Fowler had been critically
i'll only since Wednesday. His death
was due to heart failure, resulting from
complication of diseases. He had
been in i'll health for two years but
during nearly all that time he took a
more or less active part in the anairs
of the church. AS late as two months
ago he felt able to make journey to
Minneapolis, where he presided at the
dedication of the Fowler Memorial
Methodist Episcopal church. His last
public appearance was at Metropolitan
temple Sunday following Washington S
birthday, when he took part in Wash
ington memorial service. Wednesday
he was stricken with the illness which
resulted in his death Friday.
Bishop Fowler long life was filled
with activity for the church and the
cause of education. Born in Burford,
Ontario, in 1887, he was graduated
from Genesee college, now Syracuse
university, in 1859, and he was the
yaledictorian of his class. He also head
ed his class at Garret Biblical 1nsti-
tute and was the first man to receive
the honorary degree of ID. ID. from that
institution. After completing his edu-
cation he removed to Chicago, where
he studied law, but never practiced
that profession.
Entering the ministry at the conclu-
sion of his law studies he
served as pastor of several church
tln nyt tn. nl " a
years and in 1872 was elected presi-
dent of Northwestern university. He
remained at the head of that institu-
ton four years and then became edi-
tor of the Christian Advocate in New
York. He was made general mission
ary secretary of the church in 1850 and
four years later was elected bishop.
Bishop Fowler was pastor OF one
OF Chicago's churches at the time OF
the great fire and it was he who sug-
gested that plan of pooling the inter
ests of the different churches until all
should have time to rehabiliate them
selves. AS missionary secretary he
organized PekinS university in North
China: Nanking university in Central
China: the First Methodist Episcopal
church in st. Petersburg; established
the McClay college of Theology in
southern California and consolidated
the three colleges in Nebraska into the
Nebraska Wesleyan university at Lin
coin.
He suggested an inaugurated the
twentieth century thank Offering of his
church. whereby mere than S2O,OoO.Oo
was raised for the church. He also
originated the open door emergency
commission, which eventuated in the
great Cleveland convention, at which,
with the bishop presiding, $235,OOO was
raised in a single evening.
He was trustee of Syracuse universi-
ty, Drew Theological seminary, Medi-
son, New Jersey; American university,
member of the board of managers OF
the Methodist Missionary society. the
Church Extension society, and other
Methodist societies.

GLAD TO HAVE HIM GO.
ToIIGate Keeper Thought He Had
Visit from His Satanic Majesty.

This is not the only age in which
motor cars have created excitement
and disturbance. In 1902 such appari-
tions were few and far between; at
present they are too frequent to at
tract attention. Mr.. Joseph Hatton, in
"Old Lamps and New" tells of the
fright caused by one of Trevithick's
steam locomotives, made to run on
unrailed roads in the early part OF the
last century.
Now and then one Of these extraor-
binary vehicles would be encountered,

The countrymen regarded them as the
evil one in disguise.
One of the cars, coming to a toll
gate. stopped for the gate to be
opened The toll-man came hurryins
out. He flung the gate open with
trembling hands, and teeth which
chartered audibly.
The driver asked him how much toll
there was to pay.

ON as fast as you like; there's nothing
to pay."-Youth's Companion.

Less Red Tape.

Under new system adopted by the
United States civil service department,
certain positions controlled by the
quartermaster's division of the war de-
partment may be secured without the
red tap, which has been an objection
able feature in the past. 1t has always
been necessary to file an application
with the Washington officials but the
local secretary in the federal building
is now ready to receive them and re-
suits are announced with much less
delay than under the old system. No
educat tional tests are required and the
only qualifications considered regard
age, physical condition and experience.
The positions pay from 5000 to 5000
a year and among the vocations affect
ed are plumber. blacksmith, carpen-
ter. fireman. engineer, gardener, ma
chinist, painter, mason and janitor.

oriain of the Elevator.

The elevator originated in Central
Europe. The earliest mention of the
elevator is made in letter of Ma
poleon |. addressed to his wife, Arch
duchess Maria Louise. He writes to
her that when in Schoenbrunn. then
the summer residence of the Austrian
emperor, near Vienna, he used the
"chaise volante" (fying chair) in that
castle which had been constructed for
Empress Maria Theresa. 1t consisted
of small, square room. sumptuously
furnished with hangings of red silk
and suspended by strong ropes with
counter weights, so that it could be
pulled up or let down with great ease
in a shaft built for the purpose

HAPPY OLD AGE
Mos. Likely to Follow Proper Eating

AS old age advances, we require less
food to replace waste, and food that
will not overtax the digestive organs,
while supplying true nourishment.
Such an ideal food is found in Grape
Nuts, made of whole wheat and barley
by long baking and action of diastase
in the barley which changes the starch
into sugar.
The phosphates also. placed up un-
der the bran.coat of the wheat, are In
cluded in Grape-Nuts, but left out of
white -four. They are necessary to
the building of brain and nerve cells.
