"Men are never so modest as when
they go to use a dictionary" remarked
an attendant at the public library.
"As a rule. when you see a man go to
a public dictionary or one In any place
where other people are around you'll
see him look about furtively as II IN
fear somebody might see him. Mer
who make no pretensions at havins
any great amount OF knowledge never
theless seem 70 be embarrassed q
have any one think that they do not
know the pronunciation OF meaning OF
some English word. The next time
you see a man looking up word IN
the dictionary just ask him what It IS
he is looking up and see II he will tell
you. You'll find In at least nine cases
out Of ten that he won't tell you. He's
afraid you'll know II and have the fun
OF enllghtening him" Plain

BY Tom D0lan.


themselves honestly if they would have fol-
lowed him in that frail little boat to an al
most certain death for the sake Of our flag,
we believe their answer would have accorded
his remarks more respectful hearing.
The Weird Experience of Mrs. McNulty of
New Britain, Conn.
Those who enjoy the occult will find the
story Of Mrs. McNulty calculated to make the
border-line between the spirit world and ours
very, very shadowy and vague. During pc
Rod of suspended animation lasting several
hours recently, she is convinced that she v;s
tied the actual land Of Hereafter and talked
with her dead mother and another relative
who died many years ago. The Doctor has
made affidavit to the effect that Mrs. McNul-
ty was "as thoroughly dead, for one hour as
she can ever be-" though since she did finally
return to life, it is difficult to understand NV
he can quite come to such conclusion. Mrs
McNulty claims to have seen that eight which
never was on land or sea-" though she de-
scribes it crudely enough, as "dazzling, a
hundred times more so than the sunlight, but
it was not like the light Of the sun. It was
a flaming brilliance that pervaded everything
but did not come from any one place in partic-
ular.
"When the light was at it's brightest
found myself in the midst of an endless crowd
Of people. They were all moving, too, and oh,
how happy they seemed [ would have been
perfectly happy to stay there forever myself.
Suddenly [ saw my mother and beside her a
distant relative who died thirty years ago. ]
was talking to them when the light seemed
to go out again and everything was in dark
ness, and I lost consciousness. When
opened my eyes I saw DR.. Mulhgan bending
over me.
"The crowds Of people did not seem to be
in any place particularly. That is, they were
not confined by any walls or buildings and
there was nothing that might be called land
They just seemed to move to and fro at will. y
DR.. Mulligan states that her mind is per-
fectly clear and that she will in time recover
her health.
One thing is no more wonderful than an
other, after all, when you come to contem-
plate them. If there is an all pervading
spirit world, perhaps we bump into it oftener
than we realize. While merrily roller-skating
with bevy of fesh-and-blood friends, for in
springs up and pastes US one behind the left
ear, and 10, the dazzling light is all around us
our friends are far away, and we seem to be
walking about on just nothing at ALL There
may be a deeper significance in this, consid-
