Floyd, Teacher The Effects of Thought on the Human System Paper Given at Holstein Women‘s in stitute by Mrs. R. Irvin Scientists tell us that the brain is BMNC divided into three compartments. The| To front chamber is where creative| With thoughts are released and where in-\ somt spirational â€" thoughts are conceived.| J2Y The middle portion is the thinklng'."d chamber or rather the solving portion | and and the base of the brain the recordâ€"| 8COT ing or habit forming part. i:\Tn The front portion, or that part of the brain which creates thought, is by far the most important, but unforâ€" tunately in the majority of individuals least developed. _ The man who can create thought, who can anticipate the wants of humanity, has the world at his feet. Henry Ford is an example, Marconi another, Edison Watt, Stepâ€" henson, still others. _ We always had electricity, or }'a{ther the elements of electricity, only the forces were not harnessed. It has been done after the thought was created how to do it. The Universe is the outcome of: thought.â€"of â€" Divine Thought. _ And when we think of the constellations of the stars, of the planetary system so arranged that every portion of the earth has its seasons, and its day and night, of the abundance of vegetation and of its grandeur so lavishly dis played, when we pause to meditate on all these, then and only then do we begin to dimly realize the omnipoâ€" tence of Divine Thought. The world as it stands toâ€"day, with all its turmoil and longing, is the re-1 sult of man‘s past thought. What it shall be ten years hence will be the result of man‘s present and future thought. _ We ourselves are the reâ€" sult of past thought, because characâ€" ter is always and ever shall be the result of past thought. Hence to change our character we of necessity must change our present thoughts. There can be no action without being preceded by thought. Now there are two kinds of thought, viz., "positive" and "negative". Positive thought is like unto the magnet which attracts. Some of the positive thoughts are . thoughts of cheerfulness, kindness, faith courage determination, love, purity, ete. These are all life builders. Negative thoughts, on the other hand, repel. Some of them are thoughts of fear, worry, envy, covetâ€" ousness, hatred, and so on. These are all life destroyers. Sensuality is the outcome of bestial impure thought. Hateful and envious thoughts crystallize into habits of acâ€" cusation and violence, which lead to injury and persecution. XEC¢ " "Tis something, nothing Who steals my purse, steals trash; "T‘was mine, ‘tis his, and has been slave to thousands: But he who robs me of my good name Robs me of that, which not enriches him, And makes me poor indeed." On the other hand beautiful thoughts erystallize into habits of grace and kindliness, pure thoughts into habits of temperance and sglfâ€"control. Genâ€" tle and forgiving thoughts erystallize into habits of gentleness and unselâ€" fishness. A train of thought persisted in, be it good or bad, cannot fail to produce its results on the health of its victim. Disease is too often the result of negative thought, either direct or inâ€" directly. Sickly thoughts will express themselyves through a sickly body. You know it was because of impure thought in the Garden of Eden that sickness and death were. visited upon mankind. â€" Christ himself said | that the last enemy to be destroyed was death. Perhaps the most common of negaâ€". tive thought is that of fear and doubt.. Thoughts of fear have been known to kill a man as speedily as a bullet: and they are continually killing thouâ€" sands just as surely, though usually less rapidly. From the cradle up: wards, these twin formg of hegative thought have been constant companâ€" ions that have dogged our footsteps in the class room, preventing us from doing our best work by the dreaded fear of punishment. In early home life we have been surrounded, by dont‘s and many of us in childhood have bean broken into the worries of maturer life through the troubles of our parents. Alas ! how many of us were not only born, but conceived in a state of fear and doubt that all would not‘ be well and the ill effect on the health of the individual is most devastating. The body is a delicate and plastic instrument and it is toned in vigor and grace by pure and happy thoughts and if you would protect your body, beautify and guard your mind.

They are Mrs John |\ Bunston, Mrs. Jas. Renton, Mrs Gedâ€" ldes and the family of Mr Robt. Renâ€" ‘wick. Jr. who will be out of quaranâ€" \tine this week. ‘ The many friends of Mrs Hugh Renwick, (nee Essie Swanston) will | be glad to know that she recently | passed with 1st class honors in Eloâ€" | cution, and now has her diploma with | a gold seal accompanying 4t. She has | several pupils of her own and is makâ€" | ing good in the Capital, and has met |\with warm â€" appreciative _ reception | wherever she has appeared. Mr. Chas. Watson has moved into the house lately occupied by Mr and Mrs. John Renwick, near the store. Thus "the trend of Empire westward takes its way." Mr and Mrs Frank Hopkins moved last week on to the farm recently purchased from Mr Stanley Williams and graced Amos Church with their presence on Sunday last. Mr. Jas. and Miss Susanna Snell have secured an emigrant, a likely looking young chap of about 17 years or 80. A comgregational meeting was holdl on Friday evening last at Amos Ch.,! for the regretful purpose of recelvlng‘ and accepting the resignation of Mr. Gordon Geddes, who has acted as manager and Sec‘y Treas. of the church for several years. This was followed by nominations for the posiâ€" tion, Alex. Miine, Jr. being declared elected on the first ballot, for the unâ€" fulfilled part of his predecessor in the | managership. After the business part! was concluded, Mr Geddes was call«dl to the front by Mr. Burnett, who act-l ed as Chairman, when 8. M. Patterâ€"| son read the address following, and at | the proper time, a couple of chairs were presented by Thos Reid and W. Ramage. After this Mr R. Renwickf expressed the good wishes of the: Session and had looked forward to the time when he would be his sucâ€" cessor as Supt. of the Sunday School. Mrs. Hastie spoke on behalf of the Ladies‘ Missionary Society. W. Ramâ€" age also expressed his regret and had looked upon them as being a desirable addition to the Choir, had they seen fit to accept the invitation often givâ€" .on. Rev. W. J. Burnet spoke lppmv-' \ingly of Mrâ€"Geddes‘ qualifications 1genera.l|y. Mr. Geddes thanked one and all for the gift and the good feeling which prompted it, and disclaimed the wor thiness, and stated the little he had done in the S. 8. was a pleasure and a benefit to him. He wished allâ€"prosâ€" perity and happiness and hoped to see many of them in future years and would occasionally visit Amos. Mr. Geddes had, some years prevâ€" ious, generously refused a salary, stating it was a pleasure to do the work for the Church and an educaâ€" tion as well. He was ably assisted in this work by his estimable wife. Towards the conclusion of the meetâ€" ing, it was moved and seconded that the congregation have a picnic this summer to Eugenia Falls, or else where. In the meantime it is left in abeyance until Eugeniaâ€"falls. At the C. E. on Sunday evening, lay in tlâ€"\:)uglnis of peace toOwâ€" will bring abounding peate niness.

Refreshments were served at the close of a short program which consisted of two selections from the choir and a solo by Wâ€" Ramage, "The Grave of Bonaparte." / Dear Mr. Geddes,â€" It was with surprise and regret that word was received by us that you had decided to leave our community. We were surprised because We had never ;\houghl of it as &A possibility and we yegret it because of the interest that I_you have always taken in the church iand community, and the work that | you have done for both. indtvretapeo e en TE o No C N cU 9 have PTCCUICS In the community been always ready and assistance to « Your fine spirit « that bestowed its 1 h000 M ciatntadiect Aa ht eA for Amos Presbyterian church has been appreciated. We regret you are going from us. Many of us had lookâ€" ed forward to the time when the conâ€" gregation could bestow upon you tho }omce which is at once its highest gift and its greatest responsibility. This, it seems, is not to be. All thai we can do now is to give you with ‘ these words of appreciation, the heartâ€" |felt thanks of the congregation. |\ _ If we have omitted Mrs Geddes‘ }name in the foregoing, it is not in | forgetfuiness, or that we consider ‘her less worthy of our thanks. Jt is, rather, that we had learned that our meeting should not be graced by her presence toâ€"night. In counsel, the woman is mightier than the man. Not only in counsel but in deed, Mrs Gedâ€" des has rendered valuable assistance, land without detracting in the least from what has been said, we ask you S It was somewhat of a trying experâ€" "\ience for two luckless chaps during 8/ the storm of wind and rain on Satâ€" ©| urday last, when their sleigh "upsot", 5| spilling everything out, even to the L' box.

I know the one involved will _ not feel sore at this "rub" in the papâ€" l' er, nor have we been asked to even , . mention it. We pray that the God of love who has in the past, so abundantly blesâ€" sed, may continue to enrich you with all grace. W. J. Burnett, Minister of Amos Ch. Robt. Renwick, Supt. Sunday Schyol 8.
