Subsequently while they were liv-
ing at MorrelI Park, Mr. Snyder ad-
mftted to his wife that he had been

in I'd her testimony, and she threat
ened to leave him.

taeious diseases in Queens and The Bronx
The Board of Estimate has authorized the
construction of the first unit of the Queens
institution on site which the city has owned
for eleven years. The building is now near
ing completion. AS for the Bronx Hospital,
the Board of Aldermen has sanctioned the
purchase Of the Seton Falls site, and there is
available for construction Sl25,ooo. Request
has been made for sufficient sum IN addi-
ton to make possible the completion OF
group of three buildings which will enable
the department to discontinue the transfer OF
sick children to North Brother Island, prac'
tice that has evoked a storm OF criticism
During the year system OF tollow-up WORK
has been instituted in the case OF patients dis-
charged from the contagious diseases hospi-
tails and from the tuberculosis sanatorium OF
the department at Otisvlle and the state sana-
torum at Raybrook The object OF this, ct
course. is to learn how these former patients
fare after leaving the institution, and accord
ingly to regulate and extend the treatment to
be received in the institutions themselves.
And then there is the advisory council, to
which the Mayor devotes paragraph OF his
congratulatory letter. Organized early in the
wear. this council consists OF representatives
of the various trades that regularly come I'M
der the supervision of the department and 1t
also includes in its membership persons identi-
fed in some way with public health admins
tration and those identified with institutions
and private societies whose objects are akin
to those of the Health Department
The council is divided into committees cor

psrtment. Whenever problem arises in the

IL the fairy" understood this law and could thus
affect the light waves, destroying them for tho
time, then invsibility would be at once estab-
lished.
It is quite possible that on the eve OF
again discovering how TO effect this transforma-
ton by the occult of the will!
A story was once related to me Of a lady who
strongly objected for certain reasons to having
her photograph taken. One DAY she died; she
was laid to rest in her coffin, where she remained
two days On the second day photograph OF
her was taken by the local photographer Next
day she was buried. Two days later the photogra-
pher came around in a great state OF excitement,
saving that although he had carefully developed
his plate not a mark was to be found on ".
Where the face should have been was blank
space! Now the possible explanation IS that the
still active will of this person was being exercised
in some such occult manner, to the end that she
interfcred with the light rays coming from her
face sufficiently to prevent its image being re-
corded.
These experiments in thought photography are
farreaching in their effects and significance TheS

Meeting matter and mind-the material and

progress slowly but surely, and do not hesitate
TO say that these experiments in thought photog-

will offer the key to many scientific problem

predict that within the next ten years results
of the greatest importance will .e obtained; that
possibly a spiritual world will be scientifically
proved, and that this result will have been brought
to pass very largely by these experiments in
thought photography!
