"ReIievinu Our Mlnds." )"

What passes for reasoning on most
occasions Is a series Of vocal sounds
which serve-to use a phrase at once
popular and scientific-to "relieve our
minds" Arguments employed In polit-
ical addresses, sermons, and newspa-
paper editorials are commonly little
more than CALCULATIONS, called forth by
feelings of approval or disapproval,
comfort or alarm.-James Harvey Rob-
insOn In the Atlantic.

GROUNDING AND WIND

Unusual Sight at Midway, N. Y.
Arouses Interest of Travellers

Arouoes interest OF travellers
and Visitors.
MIDWAY, N. Y.-When strangers
enter this village by automobile or
railroad trains they observe numerous
mounds in North street at the corpor-
ate limits, and often see little ami
mails disappear in them. When they
reach the village hotel the majority
of strangers are sure to inquire about
the mounds.
The mounds are the work of ground
Observation-Disclosures, as they are known
here-and the wind. The earth sur
rounding the mounds is light sand.
Years ago woodchucks appeared in
the sand lot and dug holes. After a
time 1t was observed that mounds had
appeared in the sand lot.
The woodchucks had packed the
sand so hard around the holes that the
wind had no effect, but blew 1t away
from the holes for several feet, thus
forming the mounds.
At the approach Of persons the
woodchucks climb the mounds and
disappear in the holes. Many of the
mounds are very steep and the wood
chucks often slip back several times
before they are able to reach the
summit and disappear.
