HEPPNER GAZETTE TIMES, HEPPNER, OREGON, THURSDAY, DEC. 26, 1929. PAGE THREE THOUGHTS One of the most interesting men in the United States Is a nerve spe cialist whom I am fortunate enough to count among my friends. The other day he was called upon to testify in the case of a woman who had been paralyzed by falling from a street-car. She could not move an arm or a leg. Needles thrust Into the flesh produced no pain, and the other customary tests all proved to the satisfaction of the jurors that paral ysis was complete. She was awarded heavy damages in spite of the testimony of my friend, who was convinced that her condition was entirely the result of her own thinking. He took interest enough in the case to follow U up, and discovered that two days after the award of damages the woman had made a complete recovery. "You will say she was faking," he said in telling the story. "Was she? I say to you that with all my know ledge of the nervous system, I could not produce in myself such a condi tion. You couldn't do it. The wo man herself could not do it again. But the combination of the shock and the thought was sufficient. She knew she was paralyzed, and so she was. "I saw the same sort of thing again and again in the war," he continued. "There was a soldier who used to have an epileptic fit regularly at the stroke of seven every morning. That was the hour when the heavy shelling began, but his fits lasted long after the war was over and withstood all treatment I cured him finally by a positive counter suggestion. I said to him: 'There is no form of epilepsy like this. I have lived for years among epilep tics and I know. You thought your self into this condition; you can think yourself out of It' ". If a single thought is powerful enough to paralyse an arm or make a man epileptic, what are our thoughts - good and bad doing to us every day? "To what base uses we put this Ineffable intellect!" Emerson ex claimed. "To reading all day mur ders and railroad accidents, to choosing patterns for waistcoats and scarfa. These are petty thoughts that frit ter away power. What about the destructive thoughts Jealousy, en vy, hatred, fear? By a change of thought the yeo men of England became the un conquerable army of Cromwell. By a change of thought a handful of fishermen of Palestine transformed human history. Because she "stirred people up to think who had never taken it into their head to think before," Mad ame de Stael was banished from France by Napoleon. He could ban ish her, but he could not stop the thinking. It broke him. It can break or make us all. IRRIGON Mrs. Fred Reiks and her son-in-law, F.
