1t would appear probable that in a fu-

by the new proiectie will be surgically
less severe and prove amenable TO effec-

she makes a picture like a sketch of

Wild applause greets her, and she retires

thing pretty to think about.
The secret Of the trick can be found
in the little punches of silk roses that
come wired in dozens for just this trick.
Before being unwired a dozen roses are
no bigger than n walnut. The little
packet is kept up the sleeve by pin

there sits a figure that is a source Of

are number of printed prophecies.
When anyone approaches her and lays
out palm to be read. the figure bends
her head over II minute and silently
lifts a prophecy from her lap. This she
does until a very clever reading is given.
Finally she shufiies the cards and tells
the birthday. age, and gives other figures

The exact secret OF this figure Is not
known. But IL must he recorded as a
noticeable fact that il refuses to talk

Attempts 10 Photograph Heat.

The announcement Of the discovery by
Prof. Routgen, In Vienna, OF wonder
ful new light which penetratcs many
solids as II they were glass, recalls tho
experiments which Thomas 4. Edison
has been making on somewhat similar
lines More than four years ago Edison
was at work on this new way OF photo
graphy lie took IL up after his expert
ments IN rapid photography had assured
the perfection OF the microscope. Talking
10 a Sun man about that time he said:
zone theory of light Is that IL Is caused
by certain Vibrations OF an intangible
ether. the motion being commonly sup
posed TO be undulatory. The motion 81
heat Is much the same. except that the
direction OF the molecular action changes.
Now. II these theories are both true. why
can We not make a film which will be-
sensitive TO the heat radiations as well
as one which is sensitive to those which
cause light?'
