The first thing a fortune teller tries
to do with a customer is to gain her
complete trust and confidence. The
best way to do this is to make her
believe that he can tell her her name
or her wish. Therefore, he asks heI
to write these two things on a little
piece Of paper which he hands to her
folded.
She writes.
Then he takes the paper from her
and standing in front Of her, he seems
to place the paper in an envelope. AS
matter OF fact there is a slit in the
envelope and he slips the paper
through that into the palm OF his 9th
er hand. Down In one corner OF the
envelope, however, he has placed a
folded piece OF paper just like the one
on which she has written. He strikes
match, holds 1t up behind the en-
velope and shows the woman the out
lines of the folded paper which she
thinks he has just placed in there.
Then he lights the envelope with the
match and burns the envelope and It's
contents.
Now he has the paper in his hand,
It. He will hand the woman a book
or a pack of cards or some other
thing TO hold her attention while he
gets behind her and reads what she
has written. Or II he thinks the wo-
man will stand for 1t. he will tell her
to put her hands on his shoulders and
close her eyes.
While she does this he will place
his hands on her shoulders. One of
his hands will contain the paper with
the writing on II, and, holding the
paper somewhere In the neighborhood
of her ear, he viii read what she has
written, right over her shoulder
At last. after he has read her name
and her wish. he Is ready to begin to
fool her. He keeps talking to her all
the time about her having confidence
in him.
81 can do anything you want me to
do" he keeps saying, If you VIII only
have complete confidence in me and
do what | say
Then he will read her palm. Some
where during the reading he will
probably call her by her last name,
In a matter-of-fact way. This Will as

as II 1t we're a very small matter
Then, after a time, he will mention
the wish. saying, Il could make your
wish come true, II you would only
have enough confidence in me.
OF course, this has great effect
upon the woman. Usually, the for
tune teller will hold back any men
ton OF the woman's first name, but,
Just before she goes, he asks her.
Now. have you got complete conf
dence In me? Haven't / done every
thing promised to do?"
The woman will probably say, We'll.
you've done pretty well, but you told
me only my last name"
The fortune teller scowls and says.

All the time, of course, he knows
her first name, because he read II
from the piece OF paper. He scowls
and frowns and tells her TO look him
in the eyes and tell herself that she
has complete confidence in him and
believes that he can do anything she
wants him to do
Then, all of a sudden, with smile,
he says:
"Ah, that time you did better Your
confidence was complete, and | was
able to discover that your first name Is
soand-so.'
This last trick usually wins the vic.
tim. She Is persuaded that the man
really has powers that she doesn't
understand and that he can use them
only when she puts her confidence
and trust in him.
Now comes the big moment for her.
II there is some one thing she wants
more than anything else, she is very
likely to tell her wish TO the fortune
teller, just about this time.
Maybe the wish that she wrote on
the paper was: Il want to be mar
ried"
Now, the fortune teller will probably
believe that there Is some certain
man she wants. Having gained her
confidence. he gets her to tell him II
this is the case. Nine times out Of
ten, IL she won't tell him on the first
visit. she'll drop around the second
time, after she has thought the thing
over. and tell the fortune teller her
secret
All right" says the fortune teller.
I'll get him Cor you. I'll make him
come to you and propose. I'll make
him stop going with the girl he goes
with now and turn his attention to
you. But it will cost you money and
you will have to have complete con-
fidence in me"
After that she's hooked on. I've
had women who paid me $25 week
for stretches of six months to get me
to win some man for them.
And worse than that, I've had mar
ried women. lots OF them, who want
ed me to have the evil spirits remove
their husbands.
The first experience | had of that
kind nearly scared me to death. I'll

THE REUNION
A Story of a Thanks
giving in a Tourist
Tee ss - - -
N0I
BY MINNIE e. oLIPHANT.

Genevieve and l were riding in a
tourist car, headed away from Los An
geles, and slowly creeping across
Death valley. Our thoughts were with
the folks at home, who were getting
ready for the Thanksgiving dinner, but
we were talking of other things. Words
are slow unless thoughts are produc-
ing them, and, therefore, the conver-
sation Jagged.
Finally, Genevieve turned to me
with the smile she always wore when
a good plain plan had Just struck
her.
Lets make believe" she suggest
ed that the passengers in this coach
are all relatives, and let's have fam
lily reunion and Thanksgiving din
ner."
How can we?" l asked.
'Tll 20 around and tell them that
this is Thanksgiving, and we are all
relations. and they are invited to our
section for a family reunion, and that
they are to furnish their own share OF
the dinner"
sr, looked around the car to see what
our relations" appeared to be like.
Just back of our section was young
man with a fretful baby, and little
three-year-old girl. He seemed so
tired, but patient, though awkward,
with the children. had heard him tell
the young man who wore striped
sweater and sat across the aisle, that
he had Just lost his wife and was TAX
ing the children back to their grand
mother in Ohio The young man in
the sweater lolled around in his sec
tion, dividing his time between a mag
azine. the Los Angeles papers and the
desert scenery outside. Back of him
sat a middle-aged Jew, who talked to
no one, and looked at nothing In par
ticular, as If he had forgotten where
he was. Just before us was young
lady. and all we knew about her was
that she had golden hair puffed out in
The Greenville journal. [volume] (Greenville, Ohio) 1850-1918, 1910-11-17

is Thanksgiving, and we are all away
from home, so my sister and decided
to play that you, and everybody else
in this car, belong to our family, and
to invite you home to our section, for
a Thanksgiving dinner"
He saw what she meant, and the
baby reached out toward her, as If 1t
understood, too. Genevieve took the
little one in her arms. "You see that
the baby is willing, and little child
should lead you"
"Oh, of course, We will be glad to
accept your kind invitation. If my
children won't disturb the party"
mo, indeed" she assured him, 1--WE
need children to make Thanksgiving
dinner complete" and, with the baby
in her arms, she walked down to the
golden-haired lady.
"Will you join us in our dinner
party?"
Thank you," returned the girl, "but
l have my dinner with me-"
Very good! We want you to put
your dinner in with ours, and from the
size of your basket, l should imagine
you have more than all the rest of us
put together"
But l am going to Chicago" the
young lady protested, "and l must
make my lunch do for all the way"
"Oh, l see, you are afraid we will
eat too much of it." She laughed, sit
ting down beside the girl, and still
holding the baby in her arms. IF you
will eat with us, you won't need to
open your basket. It is not your food
we want, but you"
The girl still hesitated. "My moth
er told me not to get acquainted with
people on the train, for fear some
thing might happen, because I have
never been out of California before,
and she is afraid for me to take such
long trip alone"
Are you afraid of me and this
baby?" asked Genevieve.
"Oh, no, I'm not afraid of ladies.
but mustn't speak to gentlemen, un-
less l am introduced to them"
well, my dear girl, we won't enjoy
our dinner party just behind you here,
knowing that you are eating all alone"
The young man in the sweater told
of his last Thanksgiving in Alaska,
and our Jewish relative" brought out
the best jokes he had in stock. We
laughed in the proper places, and
asked for more. Then we agreed to
name over some of the things we were
glad about.

the family and guests (and there are sure to be
guests in country at country Thanksgiving din
ner) troop into the long dining room, to find the
repast not only ready, but served with all the
pomp and state the feast deserves.
The turkey is placed before the host, while
the roast loin of young pig graces the opposite
ter, fanked with mashed white and baked sweet
gravy and bowls of sauce within easy reach of

each end of the table, and the oftener this re-
peated advice is followed the more the face of
the good matron glows with satisfaction. The
great pitchers Of foaming cider pass along the
board and the diner at farm Thanksgiving feast
finds it all so novel and good that the vision
comes up before him frequently while struggling
with a complicated menu at his club or some hotel
mincing through the series of problems pre-
sented at French Italian table d'hote dinner.
