I believe in Emile Coué, that wonderful man who has but re- cently died, and that is the rea son, I suppose, why my friends never find "Seigmundis" very often sick. You ought to believe, too. It is a grand thing and it gives one that "grand and gl-oricus feelings

The following, from the "Chil- dren's Newspaper," will tell you! something about this marvel of

men.

In a university town of Northern France the able and cultured and the learned have lately followed to his grave a great and kindly little man, whose wisdom reached to all the world, giving comfort to theu- aunds who never saw him and knew him only by name,

To those who were sick and sorry he said: "I will pass It will paus!" To those struggling with weakness or 1-health he sent a message telling them to, tell them- selves; "Every day in every way I Krow better and better!"

I cannot say that I entirely agree with Professor Nernst, but, nevertheless, I must say that his present invention is marvellous.

REGRET POVERTY:

This little paragraph from Charles Lamb is considered by many present-day writers a masterpiece of prose.

When Dr. Coué's words were.ârst heard beyond Nancy the world was striving hard to recover from a grievous sickness, the sorrow and misory and hate of the Great War. It latened, and it recognised in them something more than a doc- tor's prescription for bodily is.

the evening.

Swallows fly high.

Smoke goes up straight from

chimneys.

Gnats fly in clouds in the

evening.

The moon is clear and bright.

It will be wet when- Frogs creak loudly.

The moon has a halo round it, Dogs and cats are dull and

drowsy..

Distant objects look nearer

than usual. Swallows skim the ground. Spiders are seen crawiing on

the walls.

Lamps burn less brightly. Soot falls from the chimney... Sounds are heard more clearly. Hens are restless and uneasy. Fish come near the surface of

the water.

Dry leaves blow in eddies. ! Flies are more troublesome

than usual indoors.
