BURDSALL , POPULAR DELUSIONS Delusions of the public mind are not easily created, but once established they survive all contradictins and explanations, sometimes for centuries. Books founded on the preposterous Idea that the little Dauphin (Louis XVII.) did not die of disease and privation in the Temple are still written and find credulous readers. Soberminded historians may take small account of Lambert Simnel and Perkin War beck, but the popular delusion that the sons of King Edward IV. and Elizabeth Woodville, who died in the Tower of London, though their uncle Richard did not have them murdered, lived to manhood and were persecuted by Henry VII, survived many years of denial. ; The wild idea, formed in the disordered brain of Delia Bacon, that Francis Bacon wrote the plays of Shakespeare, is the only foundation of a delusion which has affected the minds of thousands of otherwise rational men and women. The deliberate inventor of a delus ion, if he chooses the time and place aptly, can generally afford to face ths doubting Thomases with perfect equanimity. History shows that he need not be careful even consistently to stick to all the details of his imposture. Credulity is a common human attribute. An incredulous mind Is not a possession likely to secure much happiness to its owner or to enjoy much popularity. Cagliostro was suspected and denounced by many well-meaning persons in Paris long before his disappearance. There must have been plenty to doubt the yarns of Psalamanazar, and Rougemont did not fool everybody. But the doubters were always in the minority. The world likes a good etory, well told and persistently repeated. Above all, the sense of fairness upon which humanity is apt to pride itself, induces people to cling to their belief in the one who tells them the good story first A myth, once accepted as a fact, keeps cropping up in literature to deceive new generations of the credulous The Druce case was not closed, by anz means, when the British Home Secretary caused the opening of the coffin of Thomas Druce. The story that Druce and the fifth Duke of Portland, who lived some years after Druce's death, were identical will be gravely discussed, we have no doubt, quarter of a century hence. There are people living in the twentieth century who still believe in Ossian. The false statement that Chinese plays are so long that the performance of one frequently occupies days or weeks, found

fj ft rf-- Oalf tlttfiCVMof M2eOTtala4 la Hi tefsrt tst;

ed on the misconception of the Chinese theater by early European travelers, is still credited and frequently appears in print to point a moral and adorn a tale. Facile impostors who extract large sums of money from individuals, are naturally, bound to be exposed long before they who subsist on trivial contributions from many. But the impostures of Mme. Humbert and Cassia Chadwick were successful for a long while, and how utterly lacking in evidence of any sort they were found to be when exposed? The Keely motor was always stationary, yet many seemingly sensible persons believed in Keely. The truth is that mankind is very easily fooled, and that, if you can not fool all the people all tbe time, if you have the genius for imposture, you can fool a great many of the people most of the time. N. Y. Times.

PRESIDENT DIAZ The meeting of President Taft and President Diaz at El Paso, Texas, recently brought the Great Mexican statesman under the eye of the whole American public. President Diaz is loved in his country and greatly admired over the entire world. The Washington Star pays the following tribute to him: "President Diaz is accredited with having made Mexico. He has been some time on the job, but, when he began, things were in a very unprom ising condition. A strong man was needed, and the people soon discover ed that in him they had a master state builder. He showed both grasp and firmness, and under his hand progress began. Order succeeded disorder. Laws were enforced. Public credit was established. At home and abroad the name of Mexico was advanced in estimation. It stands now very high wherever known. In America we have been following the career of this extraordinary man with the closest attention and the liveliest appreciation. So great has been American trust in him, indeed, American capital in large volume has sought and found Investment in Mexico, and is an important factor in the present development of the country. American visitors have in creased year by year, until many of our traveled people know Mexico almost as well as they do the familiar sections of their own land. They are well received, well entertained, and tell upon their return of the beauti ful cities and growing towns of which Mexico now boasts. Many progressive Americans have settled across the border, and feel at home. The question is often asked, what of the future? Is order so well estab lished, continued progress 'so well assured, that the passing of President Diaz will bring no reaction? He is surrounded by strong men, though none appears to equal him. Soldier and statesman are well united in him. and show In all what he has achieved. He is an old man, approaching eighty, and, although still vigorous, he cannot be expected to hold the reins much longer. When he lays them down and leaves tho box, then what about the coach? Though President Diaz has over shadowed all of his countrymen, It is not to be supposed that he is essential to the security of his work. Men have grown up In his shadow and developed under the inspiration of his example who have in them the capacity for big things, and when the hour strikes one of them will stand forth and show his quality. He may not measure up to the full Diaz standard, but is it necessary that he should? Diaz for his day, and the new man for his. All that Diaz has done will descend to his successor, and it will be for the latter to build still higher upon that solid foundation," BANQUET TO-NIGHT You Can Safely Eat One if You Take Two Mi-o-na Tablets Afterwards. L. H. Fihe Guarantees Them. It is really a pitiful siaht to see ?o many thousands of people worrying about what they can eat and what they can't eat. Dyspeptics, they call themselves, but they stretch the imagination when they doit All these people need to make them healthy, cheerful and of sound appetite is a box of Mi-o-na tablets. The stomach of a dyspeptic is overworked and run down. It needs help to digest the food, but more than that it needs a prescription that will cleanse renovate, strengthen and put elasticity into tbe stomach walls. Ml-o-na is the prescription that will do this and do it so promptly that you'll wonder why you didn"t try it before. It stops belching of gas and distress after eating in five minutes. It is undoubtedly the greatest stomach tonic ever given to the public by a specialist in stomach diseases. Leading druggists everywhere sell Mi-o-na. L. H.

HOSPITAL

The annual Hospital Tag Day, which has for several years past been so successfully managed by the Ladies' Aid Society of Reid Memorial Hospital, has been appointed by the ladies this year for Thursday, October 21st One of the chief needs of the Hospital and the people of the city, who have friends there, has been and is, some convenient and inexpensive means of transportation to and from the institution. A year or more ago a corporation was formed to provide a means of cheap transportation about the city which it was hoped might supply this need concerning the Hospital. A large electric machine was purchased by this company which proved impracticable and no substantial benefit was realized from it. The Hospital had nothing to do with the purchase of this conveyance, nor with the company, except some of the trustees were stockholders in the company aa individual?. The ladies of the Aid Society of the Hospital have determined, in case the donations by our citizens, are as generous as they hope for, to devote the proceeds of this year's Tag Day, to providing a suitable conveyance, to be run to and from the Hospital, to be owned and controlled by the Institution and for its benefit The purpose and plan of the ladies is, to provide such means of transportation to and from the Hospital primarily for the use and benefit of such of our citizens who have friends there, or who wish to visit the institution and who do not own private conveyances. It is purposed that such conveyance shall be controlled by the Hospital management and run to and from the institution at convenient hours, for a nominal fare of not more than ten cents each way per passenger. While such means of transportation is Intended primarily for tbe class of citizens referred to, it will of course be open to the use of all citizens alike, who wish to visit the Hospital for any purpose, or to those who wish to use it between the points it will run. The physicians of the city generally, and all who are familiar with the Hospital work, are in hearty sympathy with this purpose of the ladies, because all realize that it will supply a long felt need, both of the Hospital and all our citizens who have occasion to visit the institution for any purpose.

Col. John Sneed's Conversations on Domestic Problems

By CASPER S. YOST. Author of "The Making of a SucccMful Husband and "Jtxe Making of a Successful Wife.

Copyright. 1909. by C S. I. Should the Man Smoke &t Home? COLONEL JOHN SNEED, having dined with satisfaction to him self and pleasure to bis wife lighted a cigar and strolled around tbe corner to the modest cot tage in which his son-in-law had re cently established himself. "Where's William '" he inquire after he had paternally pecked at the pretty lips presented to him and accepted the comfortable sent In the living room. "Hope he's at home." "Yes, he's at home, papa," the daughter replied, and a rosier flush came Into her cheeks aa sue added. "lie's just gone to the woodshed for a mo inent." Colonel Sneed noticed the heightened color, and his curiosity was aroused. "It's a pretty warm day." he remarked, with a twinkle in his eye. "1 don't reckon he's goiu" to build a fire. Is be?" "No, papa, it isn't tbnt. I told he thought I 1 be went out there to smoke." "What," exclaimed the colonel "gone to the woodshed to smoke! What in tbe world! Why don't be get on the roof or sit on tbe gatepost? Why don't be come Into the house or say, little girl, is this some of your doin's?" And he looked nt his daughter sternly through the incense that arose from bis cigar. "Well. well, papa." she replied falteringly. "I don't want him to smoke in tbe bouse, and I thought we ought to begin risrht and" "Huh!" grunted the colonel. "That's a fine way to begin. .Turn yonr hus"TtRS A MAN IXTO AS AKOKU" band out of doors just because he wanted an after dinner smoke, force liini to roost with the chickens while be contemplates the vanity of life in general and of matrimony in particular! Go and tell him to come here no. wait a minute, little girl. Just let nim keep on roostin' for a little bit while 1 tell you somethin. "This world, honey, wasn't fitted np as a habitation for cherubims and things of that sort It was made for mortal men and women, and you can't turn a roan into an angel without callin in the undertaker. I believe everybody ought to be good, but there's such a thing as bein too good to be interesting. It's the little faults I'm talkin about you understand the fallln's that all of us have, more or less of. and wouldn't be exactly human without I don't know whether it's exactly right to call 'em blessln's. but it seems to me that they act kind of like safety valves and keep us from doin" worse things. Anyhow. It's been my experience, an I've been here a long time, honey, and kept my eye open it's been my experience that c man who don't appear to have any faults bad better be watched.

Yost. J hJive aii .t.':-: fur ;.. meanness thatv in hiin you're likely to hare trouble, and 1 dmi't know of auy better outle for niasrullue depravity than a gout cigar. "Now. little girl, you're mnrried man. I've bceu watt hiu' William prettv ilose since 1 cam home, it ud l'ii tolerably weli satisfied that beV :Ue real thine lie's got sooit rough edges that t'jlgbt be sandpa pored down with lit'iielit to himself aud to you. but 1 want to give you a straight tip. little girl, and that Is that the sinoothln out process will go a whole lot easier when he's got a in BBirs to sibkit. frood cigar between his teeth. There's somethin' about burulu' tobacco that makes a man more susceptible to impressions from without and more rendily influenced by reflections from within. Let him have a mild Havana, fix him up comfortable in an er.sy chair, and he's In shape to submit to most any kind of a domestic operation that la prompted by love and reason, ne nln't doped. Smoke don't steal away a man's brains. On tbe contrary. It stimulate; his intelligence and opens his eyes to a better appreciation of the beaut.v and goodness around him. while at tbe same time it softens his heart anil soothes bis nerves, it has a tendency to make a man more amiable me more amenable, and after a good man.t years of observation, my dear. I air pretty well satisfied that there's notli "TOO UVCB TOBACCO." J in' that'll promote matrimonial bar :.iV like a .T"-! oiar smoked a Coughed All Night Till This Recipe Was Tried. Cure Followed in 5 Hours. A prominent medical man, who suffered with a severe cough and cold on the lungs, often being kept awake all night, and weakened by loss of sleep, finally discovered a simple formula, which will cure any cough in five hour3 by the clock. It is a laxative tonic cough syprup, which can be made at home by any one and the formula is here given for the benefit of those who pass sleepless" nights in painful paroxysms. Those who have tried it say it is magical, and beats any high-priced slow-acting cough medicine ever sold. Mix In a bottle one-half ounce fluid wild cherry bark, one ounce compound essence cardlol and three ounces syrup white pine compound. Take twenty drops every half hour for four hours. Then take one-half to one teaspoonfui three or four times a day. Give children less, according to age. This will tone up and rid the system of deepseated coughs every time.

home. Tou never "aerd oT a man with a cigar in hia mouth breakln up the furniture or draggtn' hia wife around the room by the hair of her head, did you? No, 1 guess not! Nor it don't Induce him to sneak out Into tbe kitchen and kiss tbe cook, either. Its Influence to always In tho direction of virtue. Many a crisis, domestic and otherwise, baa been prevented by the contemplative restraint of a good cigar. Tou needn't smile, little gbrt Thar no Joke. Of course yon can always get too much of a good thing. Too much tobacco will work barm in time, but so will too much bam and eggs, and tbe man who smokes at borne isn't half aa likely to overdo it as tbe man who has to go out in tbe woodshed or to the corner saloon or to tbe club. "And tbat brings me around to tbe main point that 1 want to press Into your pretty little bead. You've got your hair fixed mighty nice this evenin', boney. New style, ain't it J Ch, huh! Looks fine. But, as I was about to say, tbe best place for a man to smoke his cigar is at borne. Now. you've got Bill out there in tbe back yard tryin' to set some satisfaction out of his smoke, and he isn't get tin' it Smoke, for tbe most part, is a mental process, and its enjoyment is measured a good deal by the surroundin's. Bill's puffin' away oat there and wonderin why it burns so slow. All tbe time he's thlnkln'. and you oughtn't to blame him If his thinks ain't the kind you'd like to have workln' around in bis brain. Lie ought to be sittin' here

and lookin' at jou just as 1 am and wonderin' to himself bow in the world be was lucky enough to get such a dear, delightful little wife. Instead of that he's probably thlnkln' that it's mighty tough that a man can't smoke in bis own bouse. If be bas to go away from tbe bouse to do bis smokhV he'll gradually go farther and stay longer, and tbe first thing you know you'll find yourself sittin' ALJt ths time hks up at the front THistuxu window at 2 o'clock In tbe mom in' trying to figure out what's happened to BUI and wonderin' whether you ought to get out a rollin' plu or a mustard plaster. "No. little girl; mind what your old daddy says. Don't try to make a seraphim out of Bill. Keep him at home, make him think that borne is tbe sweetest and pieasantest place on tbe face of this green earth, and let him smoke anywhere be doggone pleases." Bs Sociable Anyway. There never was a road yet tbat didn't ruu In two directions, and unless you stand still you've got to travel one way or tbe other. There's a considerable crowd goin' both ways on this highway of life, and tbat bein' tbe case it's just as easy and a whole lot pleasanter to bare company. Whether a man's goin' to heaven or goln' to tbe devil It's better to be sociable. 1 never did have any as for the fellow who flocks by himself to practice either his virtues or hia vices. Now. I take It for granted tbat yon want to go in the right direction, and. if so, you'll find tbe only real crowd that's goin' your way is in the church. They're in the church primarily, I guess, because of Its promises, but apart from that they're In it because Jordan, as tbe old song says. Is a hard road to travel, and they need the help of the church to get them over the stony places.
