MIND AS AN AGENT OF HEALING.
By Robert M. GauIf.

Everybody is interested in the idea that the mind is an agent of healing. Some em- brace it, other laugh it to scorn. It has in- spired the practice of shameful quackery upon credulous subjects so that the history of the application of mental influence to healing would be a good account of the credulity of mems minds throughout many centuries.

Rural Routes Serve 1000

More than 500 families are served
by the nve rural routes out of Gree

lation embraced in that territory the
total is about 5000. or half the pop
ulation of Greeley.

the Pleasant Valley district as far
north as Lucerne, and extends east

takes care OF 800 families. No. 4
route, which runs east to Kersey,
then south beyond Evans on the east
side of the river and then returns
through the Delta district, serves
200 families while the three routes
north and west of Greeley serve
about 100 families each.
The almost impossible roads west
of Greeley make the work harder
for the carriers in that direction, al
though they serve but half the num-
ber of families covered by the routes
east.
Compare these with the excellent
roads east of Greeley, where can
vass of the rural routes shows four
owners to one tenant and the reason
is obvious.
Route No. serves score of
homesteaders who live half way to
Grover. They come to the end of the
route. which is half mile south of
Gill. where as many as % families
get their mail in one box.
One noticeable feature of the

that not single complaint was
heard against any of the five rural
carriers.

this year than ever, and will be es-
pecially appreciated by merchants.

half a mile. as they passed an old
well curb by the side of the road,
it is claimed that Rising. who was
hidden behind the we'll. fired four
shots at the two. blowing off the tops
of both of their heads.
The horses ran $50 yards, when
McGahan's body fell to the ground,
the child's was found in the buggy.
The brains of both were scattered
about the buggy.
Sheriff Florance and Coroner
Macy were notified at 8 o'clock Sun
day morning of the tragedy and with
" E. Keyes left at once for the
scene. Rising passed them on the
way and came at once to Greeley
and with his attorney came to the
turnkey and gave himself up. On
the advice of his attorney he refuses
to talk and will make no statement
nor give any motive for the crime.
Jerry" McGahan was unmarried
and lived alone on one of his ranches
He was one of the best known char
acters OF that vicinity and was we'll

and horses.
Edna Todd formerly lived in Gree

was a barber here. Her mother is
married again and now lives at

half has been living on his home
stead near Raymer. He was married
last Thanksgiving day. 1t was not
known that bad feelings existed be-
Rising and McGahan. Sheriff Flor

Raymer with the bodies and the in
quest will be held there today.
