Your past, your present life and your
| entire future and everything can be told
by consulting Professor De Matthew, the
World Eminent ClairOyant and Scientific
Palmist, who is the greatest master of
occult science and psychic forces the world
has eve produced.
His predictions are always correct, and
never fail to come true, as many people
in this city and elsewhere will testify.
All the events of life are written In yOur
hand. Changes in business, sickness,
family troubles and personal affairs OF
whatever kind are absolutely recorded.
Many owe their entire success to wise
counsel given through .PALMlSTRY, the
only scientific method of reading the
present and future. When all other means
fail. and you are in doubt, it will point the
way. Mistakes can be avoided, enemies
outwitted, and success attained. There
are always two paths in life: a little more
knowledge and victory will be yours. 1t
is worth, trying. as thousands are con
stantly doing. Prof. Matthew, through
| years of study and travel, combined with
psychical gifts that have won the admira-
ton of the world. can guide and direct
| you. He gives you the exact facts and
advises you as only a thorough student
cam. Thousands in this and other lands
indorse his wonderful powers as a bust
ness and social adviser.
If you are contemplating a change. are
unhappy or seemingly unfOrtunate; If
things go wrong in your affairs, an inter-
| view with him will set you right.
FLORENCE MARRYAT says:-"Professor
| Matthew saved me serious mistakes. His
predictions have been fulfilled. / was
amazed at his accuracy" Thousands of
others say the same thing. There is help
for you.
Prof. Matthew has been consulted by the
Gear of Russia. Queen of England, Emper-
ors of Germany, China and Japan; also by

| walk of life. He has in his possession a

NO CAUSE IS KNOWN.
Strange Suicide Of r. A. Scott at To-
peka Last Week.

The Topeka State Journal says;
s'Reu Den A. Scott, the one armed old
soldier who committed suicide Thurs
day by hanging himself in his barn
at 1926 Buchanan street, LETT no clew
to lead to reason for the deed.
"About half past two o'clock he
suggested to his wife that she 60 to
one Of the neighbors to call. She
started but found she had forgotten
her glasses and returned and asked
her husband to 60 up stairs and get
them. He gave them to her and
she went to the neighbours for a few
minutes expecting to find Mr. Scott
when she returned. She was gone
but a short time and when she re-
turned to the house he was not there
She looked in the yard and not finding
him there went to the barn and found
him hanging by rope from rafter
on the first floor. She called for help
and l. Hardy, colored man employ
ed by the street railway, ran to the
yard. My husband is hanging there
in the barn. said Mrs. Scott, and
Hardy ran in the barn. He saw Scott
hanging there dead. Coroner Hoge'
boom and Deputy Sheriff Carl Lawson
were summoned. When they arrived
Scott was cut down.
"He had placed board from the
top Of the manger to the rafter and
crawled up the board to tie the rope
He probably placed the moose around
his neck and jumped from the board
as his neck is broken and he was
hanging in cramped position with
his legs bent under him and his feet
touching the floor.
"Mr. Scott owned the place where
be lived, a farm in Jackson county
and some property in Abilene and
drew a pension Of $45 ia month. He
had not been employed for some time
but was in very comfortable circum-
stances. He was 6S years OF age. He
had not been we'll of late and the
fact that his health had been poor is
the only reason assigned for taking
his life."
MIR. Scott was well known in this
county and city and had many friends
who will extend sympathy. Mrs.
Whitney of Talmage is his daughter
and Harvey Scott, formerly drug
gist here but now of Pttsburg, is his
son,
