BYLEO.


lated into English is soul-healing.
And there are many good men,
ministers mainly, who heal the
sick, or attempt to heal, by an
exertion of personal influence
over, the mind of the sick. The
rector of Emanuel church, Bos-
ton, and Bishop Fallows OF Chi
cago use this method to heal the
sick, They do not attempt a
cure of any organic disease, but
functional maladies. Organic
troubles are turned over to the
medical profession, and the soul
healers take charge of functional
maladies.
Many are healed and go their
way rejoicing. These soul heal
ers are unlike Christian Scien-
lists in that they do not condemn
the use of medicine, but usually
cooperate with the physicians,
whereas the Christian Scientist
relies exclusively on mental heal
ing.
The basis of all mental healing
is the close relation Of mind and
body. What depresses the mind
iniures the health. Anger IS
known to spoil one's digestive
organ. A person habitually fret
full is sure to impair his bodily
health. The body exerts a pow
erful influence over the mind.
If a person overloads his stom-
ach, his thinking clogs; it one
injure his brain, he becomes par
TALLY or wholly demented. Thus
is shown the intimate relation Of
body and mind. We are fear
fully and wonderfully made as
says King David. The healers
take advantage of this to effect
a cure, which they do in numer-
Gus cases; but always remember,
when. the malady is functional.
Many people are subject to de-
preston of spirit owing to loss
of health, of poverty or friends,
and when such go to the mental
healers for a cure, they are ques-
toned closely, counseled with sa-
gacity, and directed as to what
they should do. Suggestion"
is the term for all this, and by
suggestion one mind influences
healthfully the mind of another.
There is nothing new in all this
save that many powerful per-
sonalities have made of it a spe-
cifc treatment. Some churches
are kept open every day to ac'
commodate persons curable by
suggestion. That is the novelty
of the thing. Healing by sug
gestion is not new. For instance
many devout Roman Catholic:
have resorted, for a long time
to the waters of Lourdes IL
France, and have found health
renewal. It is not the water, o.
anything miraculous, but simpl!
suggestion and association-Jus
as it is in Boston and Chicag'
and elsewhere. Drs. Worceste
and Fallows are doing much goo'
work on this line.
It does not follow from thi
that every minister or ever
good man could be efficient heal
ers. There must be adaptation
for it.
The very presence Of somepel
sons is healing to the depresse
mind. Some physicians DO q
much to heal the sick by thei
personal influence and suggestiO
as by their powders and pills.

LAWYER THREATENS JUDGES.

Easton (SpeciaD Robert A. Stof-
fiet, a young lawyer in this CITY, who
was dlsbarred over a year ago, and
who was refused readmission to the
bar in a scatching decision handed
down by the Court, was arrested on
a bench warrant issued by Judge
Scott and taken before the Court.
His physician. DR.. Evans, was sum-
moned, In order that his mental con-
dition might be inquired Into. 1t
Is believed he is insane, and finally
the Court appointed a commission in
lunacy.
1t became known to officers that
Stofflet had, so It is alleged. threat
ened to shoot both Judge Scott and
Judge Stewart. At the time he
made these threats he had a loaded
revolver on his person. A man who
had befriended him heard of the mat
ter and got his revolver away from
him. Stofflet is said to have remark
ed that he had two other revolvers.
These Mr. Stofflet managed to hide.
Those who know him we'll are of
the opinion that Stoflet has been
brooding over his unfortunate plight
for some time, and that his mind has
become affected.

1t is nearly time for those who
have incubators to begin to put them
to work. The papers and incubator
catalogues are full of reports of won

My experience with incubation

Crimson Clover.

Can 1t be sown in summer In grow

ing spring, without injuring the corn?
]. B. A, Logansport, Ind. Answer:
Yes. Sow ten pounds of seed per
acre Immediately preceding the last
cultivation. If that is done with an
implement with eight or ten moder-
ate sized teeth, similar to a spring.
tooth cultivator, it will be better than
If the last cultivation Is given by an
implement having fewer and larger
teeth. Ordinarily, clover seeds sink
into the ground and grow without
being covered, but at the season when
1t is proposed to SOW 1t the ground
may be dry, and heavy rains may not
supply sufficient moisture; therefore
1t is best either to harrow or cult
vate in the seed, although success
frequently comes by sowing imme-
diately after the cultivator when
heavy rains quickly follow the SOW
ing. 1t will not injure the corn to
any appreciable extent. We are In
clined to believe that the shade the
clover furnishes is compensation for
the moisture and plant food which
the roots take from the soil. Ere
quently this crimson clover is killed
during late winter and spring, but
this need not discourage you from
sowing 1t, since the quantity of nitro
gen and other plant food which it will
gather or set free for the use of fol-
lowing plants is very large. although
there may be no clover in May to
plow under. If 1t lives through
the winter nicely, so much the bet
ter. The seed may be sown from

cember 30, who at the time was re-
ported to have killed herself because
OF dependency due to being left
alone at night while her husband
worked. The body is to be exhumed
to look for evidence of murder.
Much evidence was given In sup
port of the suicide theory at the time
of ner death, including statements
credited to-the woman. who was only
l6 years old, that her husband had
failed to keep repeated promises to
secure day work and that she could
stand IL no longer.
The arrest was made upon COM
plant of Mrs. William Casey. mother
OF the dead girl, who has been pros
trated ever since the tragedy. Hart
zell, IL is alleged, has been visiting
his mother-in-law every day since
Wednesday, she AYERS, that when she
said she did not believe her girl had
killed herself Hartzell burst into tears
and said she had not; that he had fir
ed the fatal shot during a fit of pas
sion when they renewed quarrel

The old man was aroused late
Tuesday night by a knock at the
door and told a man had fallen from
the buggy and was badly injured.
The ruse worked and when the three
men gained admittance demand was
made for money. Being refused he
was badly beaten over the head with
n club.
AS last resort the fiends twisted
a lowell about the aged mans neck
and with each demand for money the
towel was given an extra twist.
From this torture the old man be-
came unconscious and the thieves,
thinking him dead. placed him on
the bed and covered him with a sheet.
They then ransacked the house, Sc

Farm Tools Lost.

Many farm tools are lost because
the farmer has no definite place to
keep them and could not find them
when wanted. These lost tools often
come to light in course of time unless
spoiled by rust and neglect. Many
an implement has to be replaced In
a year or two which would have
lasted long time II given proper
care. Besides the injury to the tools
1t is probable that most farmers
waste more time searching for tools
that are wanted for use than would
amount to the damage done to tools
by neglect. II Is not difficult to get
into the habit of keeping each tool
and implement In a convenient place
and returning 1t to that place after
use. 1t is much easier to walk con-
siderable distance to one known place
than II Is to so here and there in the

BLAME FIVE woRIxMEN.

Pittsburg Especially A page oi
the report Of Joseph Murphy, the
dead fire boss of the Darr mine, found
on his body after the explosion last
month, which cost 233 lives, was pre-
sented to the Coroners jury, sitting
Mt Smithton. The coal company
claims the report. which indicates
that the second right room of No. 20
entry had been fenced off, places the
blame for the explosion on iive men,
whose bodies were found in the pro-
hibited entry.
The note book was identified by
the rescuers, who had taken II from
Murphy's pocket on finding his body.
The page introduced in evidence was
dated on the day OF the explosion.
II read
"I have examined sections 2S, 20
and 80 and found gas in second lett
on 20, Is, 16, II, is on second right
on 30 fenced off falling, and third
right on 2S fenced off. Balance OF
working places clear and In safe con-
dition."
The sections fenced off by Murphy
were required under the law, as coal
and slate had fallen and there was
evidence of gas in the workings. In
the second right of 20 the dead
bodies of five miners, the body of a
pit mule and pit wagon partly load
ed with coal and miners cap with
on open light were found
The position the officials Of the
company will take is that these five
men went to the working that had
been closed and took down the fence
and started to work there. The sup
position is that they fired a shot and
that this released the gas, which was
lgnited by the miners open lamp and
spread through the whole mine.
