peated to himself the formula NJ Coue had
put into words. Unconsciously, perhaps,
he Strengthened up and went about his
business, the old pain no longer troubling
him. In the city he explained to other
friends: II have been fool for these many
years." he said in his simple belief 1t
was NJ Coue, the gardener, who revealed
to me the light. Now / am well-as il
never had been ill. M. Coue is very wise
man indeed, 1t seems. We have not given
him his just accountings."
Another neighbor who suffered also was
waylaid at the gate to NJ Coue's garden.
He, too, went on into the city erect and
unsuffering. Nancy is not a large city,
certainly not so large but soon there were
gossipings and sayings about this little M
Coue, who lived on the outskirts and who
by merely saying few magic words could
send away about their business we'll and
strong men and women who for many
years had gone about their daily duties In
pain.
One morning, just after SUNRISE when
NJ Coue came out of his front door to say
good morning to his flowers, there stood a
stranger at the little gate. He was from
the city, but M. Coue had not seen him
before.
Courteously and somewhat in doubt
when he saw the little man with the
cigarette, the stranger asked IL this might
be the famous Monsieur of whom all Nancy
then talked.
Puzzled. the gardener replied:
But no, can't be the one you seek.
am indeed but the Monsieur Coue who
keeps this garden and small business in
the city. The good people of Nancy have
never had reason to speak of me, either Ill
or good"
"But there must live here the Monsieur
/ seek--the same of whom all Nancy
speaks, and speaks most good-and the
name Ia the same Monsieur Coue. Is It
possible you are he?"
II am Monsieur Coue, that Ia true But
what could the good people of Nancy say Of
me that you should come to my gate in
quiring?"
"They say you cure those who are Ill by
the simple telling to them that they are
we'll. have come to ask II you would be
so good as to tell me In those words that
seem so potential that I. too. am well who
have been Ill 80 long"
Then M. Coue understood. Some one Of
those garrulous neighbors had been talk
ing more than was meet with them. He
smiled that gentle, warming smile which
now is famous across the continent They

simple manner, the convincing tone of this
little Frenchman that seemed to almost
hypnotize her into belief. At any rate
there Is ample evidence that Lady Beatty
no longer suffers. Nine. Rita, the famous
novelist, also received M. Coue and heard
his assurance and was-cured.
With such as these to sponsor him, Lon
don took even more notice than had Nancy

1t needed great halls to accommodate those

some, of course, were not so satisfied when
they left him, the fact remains that thou
sands upon thousands who appeared in the
direst distress of serious maladies went
home as he told them to go, "well and

"Hypnotism!" cried the skeptics
But | do not hypnotize,' replied M.
Coue. Il ask only that the one who suf-
fers say to himself, with conviction and
determination, am WELL Any one who
can do this is. indeed, well. 1t is only
autosuggestion."
And that is the only explanation M
Coue gives of his extraordinary powers
aroused by the reading of a pamphlet from
an American publisher. And there is none
who can suggest charlatanism, since M.
Coue accepts no pay of any kind.
AT his last public reception in London NJ
Coue was appealed to by man who had
come far. This man was a paralytic, APP
parently, and so afflicted that he could not
balance himself upon his feet Each time
he attempted to stand he swayed and FELL
either to the right or left, or upon his
face.
Come, my friend" said the little French
man kindly, at the same time placing his
hand on the sufferers shoulder, how mis-
taken you are! 1t Is too bad you are so
wrongly persuaded OF an af1iction from
which you do not suffer. Come-run along.
Tell yourself you are foolish; that you are

It was kindly said, but there was a ring
of authority, of certainty, of conviction in
the intonations. When he had finished NJ
Coue turned, with an abrupt bow, to his
gardening. The stranger drew himself up,
turned on his toes and started back to

walked away from the gate.
And the record runs that he was, indeed
well and strong-and that he added to the
gossipings and the rumorings among the
people in the city.

arose, he says, there still was no rheuma-
tism to bother him.
He wondered, after time IL he had not
discovered something worthy of being
shared with those neighbors whom he
loved and who were the only occupants of
his horizon. There was, living near, a
friend who, for some time, also had suf

he was so bent and why there were such
lines OF distress always in his face.

you feel to joke this fine morning? You
well know suffer most continuously"
"But 1t is not So my friend" said the
little M. Coue. II thought I, too, suffered

THE amazing spectacle presented by
thousands of men and women, and
children as we'll coming from all
parts Of the Continent and England to the
front yard of modest little cottage on the
outskirts of Nancy, in France, each one of
them suffering from some sort of affection
which In the past had defied all ministra-
tions, each to be told by a little old man
who is ever smoking cigarette
"You are mistaken. my children; you are
not i'll. You are well and strong; go about
your business'-
has supplied Europe with such a thrill
as it has not lately experienced. And the
thrill is augmented in the description Of
the rest Of the same spectacle. Nearly all
those persons who go to see the little
Frenchman, each one a sufferer as said
above, depart according to the little Mon
sieur's directions-"well and strong and
able to go about their business."
II might be said that, truly, the Miracle
Man" who recently was so interesting in
stage and film drama and who was just the
creature of an authors imagination, really
has come to life.
1t was Lady Beatty, the charming and
beautiful wife of the British Admiral, who
discovered him. That is, it was Lady
Beatty who, having herself gone to him
with an afflietion which had troubled scien-
lists and specialists for many years, and
who left him cured, attracted to him the
attention Of her powerful friends and stood
sponsor for him.
The little Frenchman is M. Emile Coue
a quiet, modest gardener, who for many
years has lived unnoticed except by his i'm.
mediate neighbors in his little home out
side Nancy year ago 1t was only occa-
sionally that a neighbor stopped at the
little man who was chiefly remarkable for
the number OF cigarettes he would smoke
each day. He had little business Of his
own in the city, just prosperous enough to
support his home and his garden and allow
the luxury of one maid servant, who had
been with Monsieur for some twenty years.
Now there scarcely Is a day passes that
at least 200 pilgrims do not enter that
modest front gate to range themselves in
ranks In the front yard, there to wait
patiently and hopefully until Monsieur
finds the time to give each one a word OF
encouragement--to say to each, s"You are
foolish; you are we'll; go home"
A few years ago this NJ. Coue would have
been termed Another faith healer" There
would have been the refreshened memory
of Schlatter, Lowdin and others who were
the prototypes of the Miracle Man." and
there would have been passing wonder at
his phenomenal accomplishments, and
then, forgetfulness.
But to-day NJ. Coue is called an exponent

just few months ago. To-day both, seem

as an explanation but two words-"Mon-
sieur Coue."
Two years ago M. Coue, who, as has been
explained, was engaged in small business
in Nancy and devoted in his leisure mo-
ments to his garden and its flowers, was
interested in an advertisement distributed
by an American publishing house, asking
attention to new pamphlet by an Ameri-
can author describing the possibilities Of
auto-suggestion.
"Auto-suggestioD, the pamphlet ex-
planned, was a method of relieving ones
self from any affiction or physical trouble
by the power OF self-persuasion that such
affiiction or trouble did not really exist.
NJ Coue sent the required thirty francs
to America for copy Of this pamphlet. 1t
interested him deeply. He read a great
many other books upon the same subject.
He had been a sufferer to some extent from
rheumatism He decided to try upon him
self the theory expounded in the booklet.
"You are foolish" he said to himself.
"You have no rheumatism. You have been
mistaken in thinking you were so afflicted
Dispossess yourself OF the idea. Get up
and walk without pain--go about your
business, as you should"
Surprisingly, he declares, he rose from
his chair and for the first time In many
years walked about the house and the gar
den outside without those twinges OF pain
which had been his constant companions
for so long. Each morning before he left
his bed he said those same words to him

CREATE Commission
To STRAIGHTEN TANGLE


Washington-(A. P.)-The creation
of national commission, empowered
by congress to straighten out govern
ment tangles on existing contracts in
respect to the Muscle Shoals projects,
was advocated Saturday by Chairman
Kahn of the house military committee.
The proposed national commission,
according to Kahn, could enter nego-
tiations for the sale or lease of the
properties.
The house military committee has
before it three offers received by the
government to date for the purchase
of the projects. The commission
would consist of the secretaries of
war, agriculture, treasury, and its
first object would be TO insure the
production of nitrates for war pur-
poses as well as the production of
fertilizers for the nations agricul
tural needs.
