The Druggist Of Nancy


NJ. Emile Coue, practical psy-
chologist and compIacent dispenser
Of healthful optimism, is dead, al
sixty-nine.
Coue came to America with hfs
simply phrased philosophy, Every
day, in every way, ! am getting bet
ter and better"
The multitudes focked to hear the
I little French druggist; thousands
upon thousands of Americans joined
in pattering the magic" formula,
which was TO assist them to cheat
the Grim Reaper at least for a time.
AS usual, there were testimonials Of
wonderful improvement, Of de-
velopment of "soul power, and all
the rest Of the born-of-hope phrases
Of grateful appreciation people are
wont to employ in praise Of some
thing, or anything, that even re-
motely suggests promise Of length
Of days in this wonderful old earth.
But NJ Coue is dead He may
have become better and better, both
physically and mentally, sp to the
hour Of his passing. But ne is gone,
and gone at an age when many men
still are vital and efficient factors
in all the affairs of life; when men

But there can be no quarrel with
Coue's philosophy; like many an
other, there is something N it, .
but not the something many people
expected, the something people have
sought for through the ages-th.

Why is it that successful men,
