reading. and in speaking to the editor

said he, "and it may seem little ex
aggeration, but she described my wife
in build. complexion, disposition, as
well as if she stood before her. This
to me. seemed very strange, for Madam

not all. She then began to describe
these gentlemen. Some are 600 miles
away and others 1000 She told me

lost part of it. Now, that" said he,
you, as well as many Of my old friends
know, is absolutely correct. Say what
you please about being a skeptic. I

Ripple is one of the most gifted PALM
lists of the day. l was skeptic unfit

edge the color. Madam Ripple is full
of kindly sympathy, and it is pleas
ure to meet and talk with her. either
on her work or any topic of the day.
Thoroughly we'll read and conversant
with the questions of public interest,
