From the New York Sun.
Psychic science is a great thing, when 1t
condescends 10 apply itself to straighten-
ing out mundane tangles, and applied psy-
chic science is doing wonders in Paris
Distracted parents and chaperones rise up
and call it blessed Victims of unhappy
love affairs exercise Cupid and the devil
in its name Lothario and Don Juan find
their occupation gone Love has been dis
credited for some time past, but now he
hasn't a pointed arrow left in his CULVER.
Sigh 10 more, ladies, sigh no more"
There's really no excuse for heartache and
temptation and regret in this advanced
age. A man has come out Of the east and
set lance at rest against Cupid, and he is
prospering better In his quest than might
be expected. When he first turned up in
Paris he didn't devote all of his attention
TO love affairs. He wore flowing hair and
medieval costumes and an occult express
sion, and did psychic things of various
sorts He was a follower in the paths of
the Wandering Jew and Cagliostro, but
those paths have grown thorny in these
urosaic days and cruel world guyed him
about his clothes and his familiar spirits.
and he got very low in spirits of all kinds,
and was tempted to abandon psychics
and go into paUsserie shop. Being in
the way Of exercising demons, he resisted
temptation Then his business began to
improve Psychical research became the
fad; and the public, finding the thing sane
tihed by fashion, indulged its bent for
Credu.ity.
Business in psychics was brisk; and the
man from the east had an inspiration. He
knew that love affairs were universal, and
that they led to puzzlng situations. Psy-
cfjcs. applied to love, would appeal to a
tremendous clientele. He became a spe-
cialist.
Just by way of getting his hand in and
showing what he could do in the way of
adjusting matrimonial events, he married
a real princess, who made up In pedigree
what she lacked in fortune. incidentally
he promised her TO give up medieval
! clothes and long hair. and was obliged to
face the spirits OF the invisible world in
a frock coat and patent leather pumps;
but he kept his occult expression and his
symbolic poses and his incantations. He
! announced that, with the aid of Sister
AldegCnde. nun who had renowned the
| veil and had consented 10 be medium
for his supernatural power, he could de-
| liver any ysung woman from the demon

spells in his black books. Paris was an
excellent place for his business, and he
prospered from the start. Now every one

one of his recent triumphs was in the
case of an illustrlous family in the Fau-
bourg St. German. The pretty young
daughter of the family has given her par
ents no end of trouble, and defied all
French family traditions. She was madly
in love with a disreputable and utterly
Ineligible lieutenant, and would not lis
ton to reason. The infatuation caused
much scandal. The girl was punished,
scolded. nagged, trotted about Europe, but
stubbornly held to her lieutenant. Final
w. she became seriously i'll. Her parents
were in despair They couldn't permit so
helpless a mesalliance, but they couldn't
see their daughter die. Then Madame
la Comtesse, the mother. heard of the
Master of Applied Psychics. AS a last re-
sort. she appealed to him. Now the young
lieutenant goes sorrowing the girl is
heart whole, and the Master of Psychics
rides the topmost wave OF popularity and
is working over hours. Unfortunately the
press Of affairs has exhausted his medium,
and he is searching vainly for some SEN
sitive virtuous and mystical young wo-
man who can share the tired nuns duties.
