I, In return, cared very much
for him. We planned to get
married. In the summer Of 1879.

"It is a little odd how these things
work out" said Mrs. Willebrandt. MY
mother was an ardent Women's Chris

believed with all her heart in strict
prohibition. always believed in tenn
pearance. but drew the line at Fed

came into this Office and began to
work for law enforcement, I began to
swing out full and strong for abso-

convinced that any other stand was
wholly unsound under the Constitu-
ton. You will remember that the Su-
preme Court has held that the prohibi-
ton of liquor of so light an alcoholic

justified under the eighteenth amend

called. would defeat the purpose Of the
act. In the history Of prohibition leg

the proper position. Iowa had a light
wine and beer statute at one time in
its prohibition history. II proved the
chief avenue of evasion Of the law and
was repealed. There is only one logi-

Citizens Can Help

There is one important thing" Mrs.
Willebrandt continued, sin which the
law-abiding citizens Of the United

That is that every law-abiding citizen
should help to refute the statement
that prohibition is failure. In my
opinion, it is not a failure. and every
good citizen should help sweep back
the current Of flippancy which so
many people assume when speaking OF
States can be of the greatest help in
the infringement Of the prohibition
law. What we need in this country
is a public sentiment backing the en-
forcement of the eighteenth amend

Wealthy Americans and members of

end Of three weeks, under auto-sugges-

he arrived assembled to an altitude of

Another-this time member Of the

Now think again. Coue ordered

All opened their hands easily.
Thought Dominant
This experiment shows thought

explained Coue. "and also how thought
may paralyze muscular action"
Then he told his patients to close
their eyes and listen quietly. He be-
gan his suggestion" with the words:
THE words which pronounce must
penetrate into your spirit-they rest
there always craven, and they will
continue to dc you good even without
and further effort on your part"
He concluded by instructing them
all to say twenty times each morning
and each evening:
Every day, from every point Of
view, I am getting better and better
and he advocated, for psychological eff

CIRCUIT COURT
WILL CONVENE
next MONDAY
Long List Of Civil Cases on Docket
for September Term-Church
on Bench.
Especial to The Argus. }

-
Aledo, Ill.,, Sept. 6.-The Septem-
Der term of the circuit court will
open at Aledo Monday. Sept. IL,
with Judge ". T. Church on the
bench. A bng list Of civil cases
are docketed for the coming term
and 1t is at present understood
that the first case will be Dawson
versus the Illinois Life Insurance
company. This action to collect on
a policy of $4,000 on the life of
the late w. w. Dawson, who was
burned to death while burning
brush some months ago.
The contention of the insurance
company is that Dawson concealed
physical defects when he made ap-
plication for said policy. Attorneys
Watson and Duvall represent the
heirs and estate in the suit.
Few Criminal Cases.
The grand and petit juries are
both summoned for appearance on
the opening day of court while all
criminal cases are set back until
the third Monday Of the term. From
all appearances the criminal docket
will be light, only one or two
parties having been held to the
grand jury, and as far as known
but few cases will be brought to
it's attention. The Mercer county
fair, often the cause of numerous
criminal cases, this year passed
over without. an arrest by county
city or fair law enforcement off
