A :. "a

chased In Madrid two winters ago. when
she spent months vacation In Italy
and Spain. 1t is an old Spanish court
costume. and Miss Nelson bought II
wi.i the vague hope that she might
sometime appear In a play OF Spanish
court life. She had her maid unearth
the gown from a seldom-used trunk. But
when the script was delivered to her

cry that the costumes described in the

French Aeroplnne Artists Torme ntc,
by Feminine Enth usiasts.

London, Jan. 17.-Pesoud and B. C
Hucks, the loop-the-loop aeroplane pilots
are both tormented by women who wish
to enjoy the sensation OF an upside-down
flight. One of these women has offered
the French inventor of the feat 500 for
a single loop.
Another young woman has sent Mr..
Hueks three appeals in a fortnight. The
following are extracts from her letters:
1T Is the ambition of my life to loop
the-loop with you. read that you are
not flying again at Hendon for the pres
ent. but will be visiting provincial towns
This Is a terrible blow. The wisir to
loop-the-loop with you is becoming a
perfect mania with me. I can think OF
nothing else. Now. will you be kind
enough to let me know il there is any
chance at present. or at some future
date. Of my participating in this glorious
experience? (But, OH don't say there
is no hopeD Please remember that my
nerve is unimpeachable"
After this cumulative appeal Mr.. Hucks
has had to reply that he is arranging
for looping machine which will carry

some MENTAL TELEPATHY PHASES

| mand. II the exercise of thought is vibra
| ton and fundamentally similar to sound
why should IL not have effect In any
other mind or minds? The answer, OF
| course, is that as in wireless telegraphy
there must be certain corresponding
sensitiveness and receptivity in the other
mind. In wireless 1t is called attune-
ment; in telepathy it is nothing more nor
less than sympathy. the deeper the SYM
pathy the more facile is the reception
of thought waves.
i dare say that many OF you who
have had profound friendships have ex-
pericnced telepathy-particularly when
you and the other have been together
in thinking OF the same thing at the same
moment, or perhaps, by answering a
question that actually has not been put
This is the simplest telepathy. this is
the result OF great telepathy. which is
nothing less than an unconscious con-
centration of thought upon the one with
whom you are in sympathy.
Again. there is the woman land oc-
casionally the mani who possesses intu-
ition-realiy Possesses il. and not mere

About Developing Power.
Now, how far you and l may develop

and one upon which ! dare not profess
10 any particular knowledge. But il does
appear evident that great development
is possible.
III I have made my explanation plain

or small and unimportant one. but il
has very dangerous possibilities for many

George Arthur Makes Strong
Plea that the Power Of
Thought Be Accepted as
Proved Fact.

| Teiepathy has nothing whatever to do
with occultism. says George Arthur in
the Cleveland Plain-Dealer. Merely be-
cause the power of thought cannot be
seen and felt, disproves nothing. You
who scoff are ready. perhaps, to give me
| an answer to this.
You believe that the sun is hundreds OF
times larger than the earth: that II Is
molten and OF the intensest heat, and
that II II hundreds OF miles away.
How do you know? Your scientists tell
! you so. Is that all? And IL that is all
why y not acknowledge the fact OF
telepathy which the same scientists in
| their thousands accept? To be quite
frank. you have neither a right nor rea-
son to cast doubt upon the power Of
thought. The power of thought-that is
all it means. The power of concentrated
thought. and IL anything will influence
you toward a thorough belief in It, you
have to use your common sense and rea-
son out why the face of a deep thinker
is ever and always lined and furrowed.
Why? Ask yourself the question now.
One and Only Answer.
The one and only answer is that great
thought is strong enough to have an
apparent and deep effect upon flesh and
bone.
Now for another little step forward.
Surely Won must admit that the brain
is more positive than your framework
of bone and muscle. Then you are posi-
tive with me that thought has sufficient
power TO leave an effect upon something
FAR more sensitive. and from which a
response may be gained with far greater
facility.
So far so good. Here is a further ex-
PLANTATION. There is no such thing as
absolute silence or stiffness upon earth
Everything Is moving and movement
skaters silence. You, you cannot be truly
silent for you are composed of millions
of tiny atoms which are ceaselesSly &C
tive. The finest piece OF steel is nothing
but mass OF atoms which have sepa-
rate and distinct movement
The essence of the world is vibration |
An explosion, a shout, singing and whis- |
pering are vibrations. The explosion of |
a cannon will shatter a window; an 4
exquisite song will raise response in |
your emotions: sharply struck note on !
violin lying in the same room.
Matter of Vibration.
1t is a matter of vibration and re-
Spouse to vibration. Thought is a yibra-
ton: movement, II you like that word
better. 1t must be simply because it is
of humanity and an activity.
And so telepathy is merely the vibra-i
ton of your thoughts setting I'D a cor
responding vibration in the mind of an
other.

It was said 80 of them were present,
