THE 0uuA BOARD

A young lady writes to ask what /
know about the Ouija board, and if |
would advise her to buy me-.
Why no-my dear girl, / cannot
consistently advise you to buy one
while cedar wood and sagebrush are
so cheap. Personally, l prefer cedar
for kindling. but / can use sagebrush
mingled with a few hot words and
get along fairly well. but if l had a
box full of kindling and was in the
act of building a fire and the Ouija
board should show its face in my
house, between you and me. that Oui-
ia board would catch h.
My honest opinion is that the Ouija
board is a very silly thing. but there
are others and they are becoming so
plentiful of late l cannot see how in
thunder they are going to be worth
anything at all in the Spring.
The Ouija board is nothing more
or less than a very slow and clumsy
counterfeit of that old time spiritual
istic tool of so years ago known as
the planchett.
The spiritualists delighted
with it and pronounced it a most val
liable instrument for obtaining COM
munications from the spirit world
and assured US they would loon have
the device so perfected that they
would be able to give us the NORM
ing news from the Heavenly papers.
/ have waited a long time without
seeing anything to prove that they
were making good. My paper is the
Salt Lake Heard, a Republican pa
per, and it certainly don't read like
it was en- rapport with any of the
Heavenly issues. / sometimes think.
however, that it may have exchanges
from another section of the Great
Beyond"
HoNng for your full and speedy
recovery. l beg to remain,
Most sincerely yours,
FIZ.
