BABY'S HAIR ALL CAME OUT

when my first baby was six months
old he broke out on his head with little
bumps. They would dry up and leave
q scale. Then it would break out
again and 1t spread all over his head.
All the hair came out and his head
was scaly all over. Then his face
broke out all over in red bumps and
It kept spreading until it was on his
hands and arms. / bought several
boxes Of ointment, gave him blood
medicine, and had two doctors to treat
him, but he got worse all the time.
He had it about. six months when q
friend told me about Cuticura. sent
and got a bottle of Cuticura Resolvent,
q cake Of Cuticura Soap and a box OF
Cuticura Ointment. In three days
after using them he began to i'm
prove. He began to take long maps
and to stop scratching his head. After
taking two bottles of Resolvent, two
boxes of Ointment and three cakes of
Soap he was sound and we'll, and never
had any breaking out Of any kind. HIS
hair came out in little curls all over
his head. I don't think anything else
would have cured him except Cuti-
cura.
II have bought Cuticura Ointment
and Cuticura Soap several times since
to use for cuts and sores and have
never known them to fail to cure what
] put them on. Cuticura Soap is the
best that I have ever used for toilet
purposes" (Signed) Mrs. F. e. Har-
mon, r. F. d. 2, Atoka. Tenn, Sept.
10, 1910. Although Cuticura Soap and
Ointment are sold everywhere, a sam
pie of each. with 32-page book, will
be mailed free on application to "Cuti.
cura," Dept L, Boston.

Ghosts and Hallueinations.

FROM BamptQn's
The modern theory OF ghosts insists that
invariably, when they are real ghosts and
not the spurious product Of credulity and
deception. they are distinctly subjective in
character. and exist only by virtue of con-
mind of the. person or persons seeing
them. In other words, a real ghost is
never an objective phenomenon like a tree
say, it is always a "percept having no
basis In external reality Less learned
ly, 1t is always a case of seeing things
where they amt" That is to say, it is an
Authorization.
Indeed, the old objective view of ghosts
was doomed the moment psychologists
and psychical research students began to
inquire seriously into the frequency, ma
ture, and laws Of Authorizations.
1t has been conclusively demonstrated
that one person out Of every 10 has ex-
perienced at least one hallucination at
some time In his or her life.
Proof of this results chiefly from a re-
markable census OF Authorizations orig
mated more than 20 years g at the In
ternational Congress OF Psychology; and
member Of the Society Of Psychical Re-
search-in the United States, England.
France, Germany and other countries. To

yourself to be completely awake. had a
vivid impression OF seeing or being

preston, SO far as you could discover,
was not due to any external physical
cause?" OF the q, 1889 replies received to
this question no fewer thar 1926 were in
the affirmative.
In every case those who replied afhrma-
lively were requested to give details, and
searching inquiry was made to determine
the actually Of the experiences reported.
All doubtful cases were eliminated, yet,
after every allowance had been made for
errors Of memory and perception, there
remained a surprisingly large proportion
of strongly attested cases.

CHAPTER XII.
A CONFERENCE WITH CELIA
MADE

MARE.
What have we here? ?" cried q voice
from the staircase. I could perceive
no one because Of the darkness, but
knew from the accent that the speaker
was not a Frenchman.

that I could do nothing against an an
tagonist hi remained invisible.
Enter. and we shall doubtless be able
to arrive at an explanation"
"Ah. ah!" cried the voice again, "but
I do not know you, monsieur. Stay;

vanced a step towards the door. "a
have you covered with two pistols, and
/ desire you to remain where you are
for the present. 1 might miss with
one, but I should surely kill you with
the other. Now, pray tell me what you
are doing in this room"
II heard a lady cry out in Distress
I answered, rejecting rapidly that the
statement Of this simple fact could
compromise no one and that 1t was
necessary to gain time. II ran up the
stairs, broke open the door. and cut
down. a scoundrel whom ! found chok-
ing her."
"And where is this lady, may I ask %
inquired the voice in an anxious tone.
I'm the corner there, and / doubt not
in great need of attention. But I am
growing weary Of this questioning,
monsieur" and I made another step
towards the door.
"One question more" said the man.
Did you accompany the lady hither?"
Yes" I answered, without hesita-
ton.
Then everything is as 1t should be-"
he cried, and you have rendered me a
great service. Come, put down your

moral consequences, and very shallow
moral Impressions, In the long run;
but there they are, none the less, its
almost inevitable Accomplishments. II
Is almost unavoidable that this should
be so. Even il the novelist attempts
or affects to be impartial, he still can
not prevent his characters setting ex-
amples, he still cannot avoid, as people
say, putting ideas into his readers
heads. The greater his skill, the more
convincing his treatment. the more
vivid his power Of suggestion. And II
is almost equally impossible for him not tc
betray his sense that the proceedings
of this person are rather jolly and adj
mirable, and of that, rather ugly and
detestable. l suppose Mr.. Bennett, for
example, would say that he should not
do so; but 1t Is as manifest to any dis
interested observer that he greatly
loves n admires his Card, as that
Richardson admired his Sir Charles
Ward considers her Marcella a very
fine n estimable young And
I think 1t Is just In this. that the novel
is not simply a fictitious record Of con-
duct, but also a study and judgment Of
conduct, and through that of the ideas
that lead to conduct. that the real and
increasing value-or. perhaps, to avoid
controversy, I had better say the real
and increasing importance-of the novel
and of the novelist in modern life, comes

The old man sees the pictures of Dorothy, a young American girl, and he falls desperately in love with her. He sends home to his nephew, and asks him to go and court her for him. The young man falls in Ioee with the girl on his own hook, and writes letter telling his uncle that She girl is homely. drinks. smokes and has other peculiarities, and thus the old mans love story ends at once.

 The Man, the Girl and the Piano" is proving one of the greatest sketch
 es of it's kind that Princess patrons
 have enjoyed for many a day. It is
 not every man who possesses the
 rich voice that ilhe masculine end of
 this act can boast of To look at him one would not think that he could sing to any great extent, but when he "cuts loose" there is such sweet volume of sound and perfect
 harmony comes from his throat that
 the audience is pleasantly startled and realizes that they are listening
 to one of the finest and most cult.
 vated voices in vaudeville.
 "The longest coon in captivity is term that could aptly be applied to the one doing the "blackfaceT in the act presented by the Telegraph Four that quartette of messenger boys, who do everything but take or deliver telegrams. They make up for it, though, in their comedy, and their singing and dancing hasn't been equalled here this season.
 There is another act that offers excellent opportunity for display of vocal ability and that is the enter taTing sketch presented by Bessie Greenwood and Cortland Marsden. Miss Greenwood has demonstrated that she has the right to being des ignated as the woman possessing the highest soprano voice in the world. and her singing is a positive sensa- tional treat. Their sketch. When Dreams Come True" is one of the prettiest that one would care to look at offering as it does so many oppor tunities to get away from the ordi nary and realize the beauty of the respective vocal numbers and the | glory that can be brought out in their respective songs.
