He was surprised at the meager

forth Blair. to whom Kendall made
himself known.
The Office was large and dreary

There was a broad couch in a corner
with a pile of cheap sofa pillows,
against which the doctor had probably
been reclining. At the foot Of the
couch and oddly propped against the
back of a chair was single silken
pillow beautifully embroidered. From
a professional standpoint the room
lacked many things that money can
buy, and to Kendall, who was so far
removed from the need Of fees that he
had almost forgotten the possibility Of
any doctor having to subsist upon
them, the place spoke loudly of pow

successful hypnousts who have been
favorite entertainers in the west for
many years, opened a weeks engage

is the first time the Flints have been
in Topeka for three years, but their
exhibitions have not changed to any
great extent. The show consists Of
hypnOtizing subjects chosen from the
audience, and putting them through
some funny maneuvers to the great de-
light of the spectators. Some paTtic-
ularly good subjects were secured last
night Some better ones remained
concealed in the audience

evening was a trOtting race. participant

the overcharged minds of the victims.
