real estate-you are about cast vote and
hope that you will show your party loyalty by vot

MEATH a shaded, swinging bronze
lamp in his favorite corner of the
studio, Astro the Master of Mys-
teries sat with half-closed eyes,
seeming to browse over huge
vellum bound folio whose leaves
bore lines of Arabic characters.
But, though his dreamy eyes ap-
peared heavy and dull, his index
finger sped with such rapidity from
line to line as to reveal that the

his other fist was clenched His forehead was lined
with vertical wrinkles.
Astro, still unperturbed, looked at him gravely,
his quick eye dartng from point point of the young
mans clothing Finally he said languidly, with an
almost inperceptible foreign accent My dear sir,
the Turks have proverb, He who is in a hurry IS
already half mad If you in such haste to
me, you should have taken-a cab to come here and
street to go to the central police Office instead
of having done the exact opposite"
The young man pulled himself together, sat up,
and stared hard at the Then his face relaxed,
as he said, with tone of great relief, nodding his
head That's wonderful! It's exactly what did.

der hand 1T is not question of brains, my dear
sir 1t is question of the right comprehension of the
forces of the occult, of undeveloped senses and
powers. Men need sgnboards to show them the
way from town to town. The birds wing their
straight paths by instinct. 1t is my fortune to be
sensitive to vibrations that most minds do not
register Where you body, see spirit, life

Ill 60 insane. The police prove nothing,
their own suspect What motive there could have
been for such crime 1 can't imagine; it seems SO
unnecessary SO monstrous!' He had worked HIM
self again into fever OF excitement.
Astro and walked over to his visitor. Placing
his two thumbs muscle in the young man S
back, the spinal column, he manipulated the
flesh for few His clients hysteria gradu-
ally subsidized, and he became calmer
Now, said Astro, sinking back into his chair
and taking up the amber mouthpiece IF his water
pipe, give the details of your story, beginning
at the beginning. You need not mind my assistant;
she is quite in my confidence and may be trusted i'm
pcitly.'
Valeska had entered, and sat at a table prepared
to take notes of the conversation. Astro's eyes
turned indulgently the pretty blond head as it
bent seriously over the writing pad
THE young man spoke now as if he had the history
already clearly mapped out in his mind. He
used occasional impulsive gestures, displaying an
ardent and intense temperament.
