PSYCHIC JSTCXTrt AND MADMS.
The otiija board continues to pro
vide amusement for social jsather
Inm. and patients for insane asy
lums. One ho3iiial for montal dis

victims afneo tlie ouija craz stiirtwl.
gome of them seem hopelrss. If fif
ures could be obtained for the whole
country, it would doubtless be found
that the recognized canus of Insanity
or dementia resulting from unwise
devotion to this Innocent looklna lit
tle device runs Into the thousands.
It cannot be too often repeated
that It Is unaafe to meddle with any
kind of 'occult" experiment unless
the experimenter Is sure of bis own
mental poise and known exactly what
he Is doing, and even then It Is better
not to meddle. Students of such
mat lent Rive explanations of the
ouija board which sound simple
enough, and yet do not explain. The
Instrument Itself Is pot so new as
most persons InmRlne; it Is only the
old "planchetie" with a new name.
It 1a one of the many devices, and
perhaps the most convenient one. In
tendod for "automatic writing." Such
wrltiiift, psychologists say, Is done by
the "subconscious mind" without tho
exercise of the will. Other people
give other explanations, referring the
phenomena of such writing to "astral
bodies." to telepathy, and some even
to "devils." The messages verily
imprest the latter source sometimes,
so Ingeniously is mischievous false
hood mixed with truth.
This much at leant Is sure: The
powers of the human mind are as yet
uncharted; tho mind's capacities for
self-harm are great, anad in the bor
derland of eonscioiisnesH lurk forces
that none but an adept can know and
cope with. Novices utterly fail to
realize the power of these forces for
good or evil. The ouija board, slnte
writlng, cryniul-KitzfiiK, hypnotism,
tuble-tipping, tiplrlt-rnpping, all kinds
of "psychicul stunts," are perilous,
condemned uliko by religion, science
and common sense. "That wuy mad
nesB lies."
higher than they ought to be Is for
I'Xpeitis o Kiy. If the it; is really any
dibcriiiiinutiuu against building ma
terials, present or prospective, it la
doubly wroig, for to its essential In
justice Is added the unfortunate ef
fect it is bound to have on an fndus-
trv already too heavily handicapped,
It tli ore is to be any deviation at all
from a fi.uk of rates calculated for
normal coudiilons, building malurialb
should certain. y be favored rather
than penalized. The country needb

other forms of construction mure
than it needs any other material
thing. If favorable freight rates will
wtiuulute building, rate theories
luifcht be sacrKfccd temporarily for
practical advantage.
The little city of Yoncalla, to the
north of Ho burg, has the distinc
tion of electing a municipal ticket at
the election Tuesday Composed en
tin ly of women. It's a two to one
bet that YoncaHa will be the best
governed city lu the Culled States
for the next two years. The nieu of
that community will probably be put
on K. P. duly la l ho not distant future.
No defeated candidate need worry
about another Job. The bunluess
world offers hrtier opportunities
than the political art mi for well
trained and efficient men and women.
TOO Ml'C'II JOIINSOX.
Ever hear of Old Man Johnson who
rose In the great printing Industry
from devil to boHs of a one-man phop
and all within thirty years? says the
DuslnesB Printer.
When he was a young man lie did
Just what he was told to do nothing
more. If he was not told to do any
thing he sat down and did nothing.
When asked to lend a hand in any
undertaking ho said: "Where do I
come In on this?" He always wanted
to get before he would give. He was
always afraid somebody would do too
much work for the money they were
getting out of their Jobs. "You b t
I won't do a duru stroke more than I
have to."
"Too much Johnson." said the
foreman, and the old man got fired.
Then a supply house set him up with
a small plant a dollar down and a
dollar a week and for twenty years
Johnson has been struggling to hold
the plant, and he nearly always
scrapes up the dollar. Johnson gels
nowhere never will.
Johnson never knew that crop fail
ures in the fli-lds of service are un
known. He never learned that the
first law of nature is for one to give
before one gets. Harvests only fol
low seed sowings and cultivations. If
wo want more we must give more.
Heaping measures of service bring
heaping rewnrds. No boss determines
a renl man's salary; it is up to the
man.
JudiMng from the election returns
both local and nai lonal no one
limn was responsible for the land
slide. It was simply a unanimous
go-get-'em affair.
National and county affairs being
settled from a political standpoint,
we can again get down to business
and bit her up for the old town and
county at large.
A woman, aged C5 years, has been
ef ted sheriff of Koseouimon coun
ty. Michigan. Looks like a pretty
"heavy" Job for the old girl.
What Is more pathetic than a rich
old man who imagines the young girl
is marrying him for love?
Kven though a woman tuny be
aide to "make it hot ( noueh" for her
husband, that doesn't signify that
she's a good cook.
The next big ewnt of importance
occurs Nov. 1 I. Armistice Hay. Let's
put it over with a bang.
ff you'd keep out of trouble, don't
brag. A whale wouldn't be har
pooned If he didn't blow.
It looks like a republican year
