AN OPTICAL ILLUSION.
One of the Tricks Performed by the
Fnkirs of India.

One of the Tricks Performed by the
Fnkirs of India.
The falirs of India perform some re-
markable tricks. The following one
was witnessed by an Englishman who
was himself an excellent prestidigi-
tateur:
The apartment being filled, the ma
gicians began their performance. The
audience sat on the floor about the
fakirs, so that they had no way of con-
cealing themselves or of hiding any
thing. At their request l examined
them and satisfied myself that they
had nothing about them. Then one of
the women stepped into the inclosure
the rest remaining behind the spec
tators, who formed a close ring about
them. The light was now turned down
n little, and in n moment the woman's
face began to be Illuminated by a
ghostly light that extended quickly
over her entire body.
She then began to move around and
around, uttering low, murmuring
sound the while, gradually quickening
the pace until she was whirling about
like top. A moment of this, and the
light that had chung about her seemed
to be whirled off by centrifugal force
and assumed a pillarlike form beside
her. AS soon as this was accomplish
ed she stopped, turned and began to
mold the light with her hand, and,
though could distinctly see her hands
move through the light as If it We're n
cloud, it began to assume human form.
We saw the arms, hands and legs all
nodded and finally the face and head
gear. She next called for light, and,
the candles being relightcd, there stood
an utter stranger. native seemingly,
evolved out of cloudland. He stepped
forward and grasped me by the hand.
Ills hands were moist, as If with per-
SEPARATION, and he was very healthy
spirit.
After he had talked and drunk a
glass Of arrack he took his place beside
the woman again and began to whirl
about. The lights were dimmed, but
not so that we could not see and i'll n
few minutes the figure began to fade,
Soon assuming the appearance of n
pillar or form of light and then attach
Ing itself to the woman and seemingly
being absorbed by her. All this was
done in very short space of time be-
fore the eyes of at least 30 people and
not ten feet from myself. The girl APP
peared greatly exhausted afterward.

pose the doctors must have their way.
Miss Grahame, l saw you in saddle in
the park yesterday. and I envied your
escort" The general was nothing If
not gallant Wonderful how some
men recuperate from wounds received
In battle" continued the double star
red veteran and gazed impressively at
Miss Grahame and glanced at Lang
don, sitting erect half way across the
field. 1t seemed to the commander that
he had put 1t very neatly, though the
lady failed to appear profoundly i'm
pressed.
She wished to know the cause of the
delay, for the Washoes We're now stand
ing at ease. "Oh, the governor and
some of his people" explained the
chief, with slight annoyance in his
tone. ut seems they have been enter
tanned over at the post, but they're
coming now," he added as two car
riages, escorted by three or four horse
men, came sweeping over the brow of
the northward height. Impatient eyes
glanced thitherward, and presently
half the waiting line in khaki and doz-
ems among the carriage loads of look
ers on were aware that there was
hitch of some kind up toward that end
of the field.
Hello" said the general. whats
amiss yonder?" for all on a sudden the
carriages of the approaching dignita-
ries had stopped at the sentry line, and
there We're running and commotion.
Then Langdon was seen to spur rapid.
ly to the spot, and in one minute after
his appearance on the scene of violent
scuffle matters were Strengthened out.
The carriages, with some fiustered
looking civilians, were driving down
to the reviewing point, and the colonel
galloped back to his post. Three horse
men presently rode slowly back toward
the garrison. and curious crowd sur
rounded little knot of angered and
excited men. All in that brief space of
time an odd thing had happened.
1t seems that Nathan had rendered
certain hospitalties to the governor
and his attendant officials, that there
had been champagne breakfast pro-
longed beyond the limits. that Nathan,
his adjutant and orderly essayed to es-
cort the carriages of their guests to the
reviewing point and that when they
reached the sentry lines brown cheek
ed, stalwart young fellow had present
ed arms TO the governor, but lowered
his bayonet and said Halt" to the
major.

vate, university lad who knew where
of he spoke. but my orders are imper-
alive. The governor and the state otfi-
Gals can pass in their carriages. All

QUESTION ANSWERED.

Yes, August Flower has the
largest sale of any medicine in the
civilized world. Your mothers
and grandmothers never thought
of using any thing else for indi-
gestion or biliousness. Doctors
were scarce and they seldom
heard of Appendicitis, Nervous
Prostration or Heart failure, etc.
They used August Flower to clean
out the system and stop fermenta-
ton of undigested food, regulate
the action of the liver, stimulate
the nervous and organic action of
the system, and that is all they
took when feeling bad and dull
with headaches and other aches.
You only need few doses of

there is nothing serious the matter
