EFFECT OF SUGGESTION.


n Can FIJI Our Lives With GIadnese OF

There is nothing that plays so impor-
tant part in the daily life Of men
and women as does suggestion, says
81. Addington Bruce in the Delinea-
tor. Mentally, morally and to a large
extent physically we are what we
are because OF its influence. Sugges-
ton can make of us saints or crimi-
nails, heroes or towards It can lift
US from beds Of sickness or doom us
to a hopeless invalidism. 1t can I'LL
our lives with gladhess or with mis-
cry. 1t is great force ceaselessly
operative, unacceptable. But it is a
force that we can nevertheless direct
and utilize If we only understand its
laws, and the more wisely, the more
persistently, the more thoroughly we
use it, the happier and healthier we
shall be.
No matter how many setbacks come,
keep repeating to yourself optimistic
misconceptions Repetition is one OF
the most forceful instruments of sug-
gestion. There is great truth under
lying the familiar saying "As man
thinketh, SO is he" Moreover, you can
utilize the law Of repetition to draw
from your surroundings beneficial sug-
gestions that will powerfully re-en-
force your autosuggestions You can
do SO because every detail in your en-
vironment is Of suggestive value to
You. and, although no one can make
this environment all that it should be,
nevertheless it is quite within your
power to modify It Id such way that
it will give you maximum OF help

success in modern newspaper. First, it must
print all the news, with an eye to the interests

cause it may editorially espouse, it must be
fair, free of outside dictation, and sincere in
advocating the policies it believes to be the
best for general welfare, Third, it must be
clean, wholesome and elevating in its influence

The MAGIC CITY

Minot. N. D., April somewhat Of
sensation was created in society
circles of the magic city when it was
discovered that one of the popular
young ladies of the city had eloped

is none other than Mr.. Patrick White,
representative of the Roach Tisdale
Candy company. The young people
left on the Bismarck special and it
was not until late yesterday that rela-
tives OF the Young lady found the
trail. The authorities were communi-
Gated with at Bismarck, and an at
tempt was made to break up the plans
of the clippers. The Catholic priest at
Bismarck took charge of Miss Black
man and kept her under his eagle eye
until the situation could be definitely
settled. Mr.. White was allowed Is 90
on his own recognizance by the au-
tnorities. When it was discovered
that the bride-to be is OF legal age.
having passed her 10Th birthday last
September, no further effort was made
to stop the ceremony. Communists
tions were flying over the long dis
lance telephone line between Minot
and Bismarck all day and today it
was given out that all obstacles nave
been removed. The young couple were
married this morning in the Catholic
church at Bismarck
The story Of. the. elopement and the
