Here we have Master Paul F'.
r.rlffin. son of Mr. and Mrs. L. S.
Griffin of Unionville. His parents
are ambitious to have him win the
gold and glory of this great contest,
and for any who has as many
friends as they, this ought not to be
too difficult a taak. rather ex
pect to hear a great deal of Master
Paul before this race Is over.

On the other hand, it is strongly
presuttiiiiR up-n the credulity ct
nnotb.-r to de'lboraiely offer "the

jcrfortnar.ce of duty. This is now j
looked np;i largely as a negro ruse.
nd to try to perpetrate suon a incK
or diH'ention uptiti ni-y tt.liiKir.g per

Btii there Is one more eiuototni:.
question or belnp everlastingly sick
and ailing. It Ii this: You cannot
hold ill-health thought:;, or diae:3
thoughts, in the nti:d without ne'u
allv having them outpictured In tln
body to a certain extent. Kverybod
knows it Is liiipossinie ror a petsoa
to remain absolutely pure, who ha
bitually holds pictures cf Impurity
In his mind; bo it is Just as possi
ble to be healthy while continuing
to assert and holding the disease
thought forth. On the other hand.
ti. iiiiin-miireestioii that we are not
sick, that we are well, that we are
not downcast, that we nro happy,
and so on, has buoyed up so many
a person who otnerwiso wouiu soon
have been really sick or despondent.
Td sum the whole matter up, one
can be either sick or well, to a very
Inrce extent, by lust continually ns-
Rprtinc to one's self and hearers
that he is sick or well. Certain peo
pie have found so much trutn in
this prlciple or auio-suggeBuon mm
thov hnv founded a religious sect
that believe in healing entirely by
this method, wnne we no noi au
vocate taking this advanced ground.
vbi there is so much truth in the
principle that wo cannot ioo siron-
ly urge aoanaoning me oiu iue ui
linlnir everlastingly sick and ailing
when we are really not.
