Mind Reading Made Easy

Out of the mass OF humbug and
charlanry about mind-reading, fortune
telling, clairvoyance, etc, there emer-
ges an occasional definite fact appar-
emily proving that the human intellect
may possess psychic powers. A case
in point is the exhibition OF mind-read-
ing made by prof" Bert Reese I'm
Judge Rosalsky's court. Arrested and
previously convicted I'm a magistrates
court for posing as fortune teller,
Reese strikingly demonstrated his pos
session OF clairvoyant powers. He
read names written on concealed slips
Of paper. gave the amount OF the
judges bank balance and performed
other feats showing familiarity with
what was passing I'm the minds of his
examiners.
Obviously, man who can do these
things under conditions making collus-
ion impossible shows himself endowed
with mental gifts as rare as they are
ineXplainable. Washington Irving
Bishop possessed them in even greater

Miller, a ten-year-old Rhode Island

great scientific expectations. What
has become Of that psychic child
whose ocult mind was 60 be utilized to
explore the infinite?
The mind-reading feats which won
Reese his liberty unfortunately will
give a new impetus to imposture. But
on the other hand they simulate a legi-
innate interest in questions relating to
the possibility OF the development OF a

which science may some day solve the
