ly true, but it isn't ON record that
this mystiter Of men had amy more
luck in telling the future than can

chance. Today tbe oracle would

la Washington there are fortune

To the half religious rites of the
psychic professor. They do their
work ia quiet quarters, some of

OF persons are the sum total OF
the money pail by Wa-hiugtouims

speak of permitting them to earn

doing. There are many men, and
hard-headed men, who would laugh
at the suggestion that they would
consult "a seeker of the future i'm
anything but a spirit of. jest Yet
there are many of these men who
visit the scanccs of mediums, who
even pay visits To- the common, or
