who, in his lifetime, was we'll known
as successful physician in Wash
ington. This picture is so curious
that it certainly deserves considera-
ton upon any theory. Whether or
not these things can be taken seri-
ously depends upon the mind OF the
investigator; but here at least is the
photograph, which needs to be ac-
counted for satisfactorily, whatever
it may actually represent.
Shows Large Group.
Another photograph showed a
large group of people, many of them
quite disproportionate, being rela-
lively too tall or too short for 9TH
ers, yet overlapping each other in
a singular and interesting manner
(and which have been assured by
expert photographers would be ex-
tremely difficult to reproduce pho
tographically.) 1t was taken and
developed by Mrs. Dupont Lee her
self. In this case, no camera was
used at all. The plate was bound
to her forehead and left there two
hours.
Another experiment resulted in
the figure of a known man, holding
his hat. He is the late Mr.. Bo-
cock-well known to Mrs. Lee in
life. This plate. we are told, was
held in the hands of Mrs. Lee and
DR.. R., the we'll known physician
above mentioned, and developed by
them at once-with the result that
this figure was found upon the
plate. 1t was held in their hands
in the dark for about half an hour
of course, no camera being used.
The so-called photograph" looks
strikingly like drawing; but, what
ever it may be, we give the results
as reported; and whatever we may
think of them, we cannot bring the
charge of conscious fraud in this
case, without duplicating the two
principals themselves--which seems
hardly possible under the circum-
stances.
Prof James H. Hyslop, in the
Proceedings of the American So
ciety for Physical Research, has
published Q9lD "a long account OF
some of the earlier experiments OF
Mrs. Dupont, Lee in this connec-
ton, and travelled to Washington to

graphs which had then been taken.

with a single preoccupation i'll life; !;
and delight. Anything that will give
him strength to carry on his labors
he will keep at any price. Convinced
of the value of exercise and the
simple diet, Clemenceau has made

Thanks to them he is today the

passed through the grueling months
of mental strain and nervous tension
attendant on the mission of peace
making without single days rest or

can accomplish i'll the upbuilding

Eighteen years ago, when M. Glenn
enceau retained my services as a.
health expert, he was a broken and
aged man, worn out with the rigors
of life passed in unceasing mental
labor uncompensated by any physi-
cal occupations. He was a semi
invalid, suffering from chronic dys-
pepsia which had reduced him to a
starvation diet. What little he
dared to eat he only managed to
assimilate by the use of powerful
artificial digestives. Long years of
sedentary pursuits under tremen-
dous nervous tension had brought
on a condition of physical atrophy.
Considered Self Incurable.
II consider myself incurable," ne
told me on the day he engaged my
services.
The treatment l prescribed was
neither new or complicated. Twen-
ty minutes of light scientific exer-
else in the bedroom, with the win
dows open, followed by a brisk
rundown. In addition, a simple,
sturdy diet, with no wine, coffee
or tobacco. The only apparatus
employed was an ordinary plastic
exerciser.
Not every man has the force of
mind of M. Clemenceau. Few in
dividuals, in fact, will adhere for
a period of years to the simple
regime which is within reach of
every man, fundamentally sound,
who seeks the road to health. The
indomitabie determination of Glenn
enceau triumphed.
Day in and day out he met me on
the dot of 8 o'clock stripped to the
skin, and went through the familiar
bodily eontortions and pulley exer-
cises which every schoolboy knows.
He missed neither Sunday or holi-
days. Only downright illness or
urgent state business ever interfered
with his health program.
Improves Second Year.
During the first year an ordinary
nam would have lost all faith and
given himself over to the forces of
disease. There was scarcely any i'm
provement noticeable. The second
year, however. began to bear fruit.
The Tigers" appetite began to
show some slight improvement and
his muscles, until then fabby and
shapeless, became, slowly but per-
ceptibly, more rounded and firm.
1t was not, however, until the
completion of the fourth year of
treatment that a radical cure could
be pronounced. From that time on
there was no further trouble beyond
an occasional restless night or short |
fits of indigestion.
But the treatments were not
abandoned. The diet was not re-
linquished. The Tiger" is = man

was placed either between the
hands of the medium or against the
forehead or the "solar plexus'' and
definite thought was impressed
upon the plate at the will of the
experimenter. In all these cases,
DR.. Ochorowicz supplied and de-
veloped his own plates, and they
were never under control of the

during which she placed her hands
upon them.
Astral Hand on Plate.
These experiments of DR.. Ochor-
owicz's were conducted in the dark
or in feeble red light; and, the sub
ject being in trance, was requested
to project an astral form or hand
from her own and place this upon
the plate held in the air by the ex-
perimenter at some distance from
her body. The results of some of
these experiments are thus de-
scribed by Dr. Ochorowicz:
Il hold plate at distance of
about one metre from her right
hand, which is held in front of her.
The red light is turned slightly low;
the somnambule sees shadowy
hand detach itself from hers, which
is at the same time also attached to
very long, thin arm, which ap-
proaches the plate. The hand is
very large. she says, and is right
hand. 1t places itself over the plate,
which | thereupon remove and de-
velop. A large hand is distinctly
visible upon it. Finally | hold a
plate two and half metres away
from the mediums hand. The SOM
nambule shivers and feels cold in
her lower limbs, despite the fact that
my laboratory is very warm. She
again holds out her right hand, and
left hand, attached to long thin
arm, is seen by her to detach itself
and place itself over the plate held
in my hand. Upon being developed,
the impression of a very large left
hand was found upon the plate-so
large that only portion of the hand
could be seen (the whole of the me-
dium's hand could easily be placed
upon the plate.) These are very
similar to the enormous hands fire.

Before War Experiments.
Shortly before the war, Prof. Fu-
kurai Of the University of Toxic.
published = large book, giving the
results of his experiments in psychic
photography. (This is in Japanese,
and as yet has not been translated.)
So far as we can see, there was no
possibility fraud in connection with
these photographs. They were taken
in the presence OF a number OF
scientific witnesses-from FIVE to
seven, usually, and no professional
medium was employed.
He first of all experimental upon
two ladies, both of whom are now
dead. He afterwards, experimental
more successfully with the wife of
a fellow-professor in the university.
No camera was employed in any of
these experiments; but the plates,
wrapped in opaque paper, were held
between the hands of the subject,
and several plates, as rule, were
piled one upon another. After the
pile had been arranged, the plate up
on which the impression was to be
made was selected. For example,
on one occasion, Prof. Fukurai, after
handing plate to the entranced
psychic, said, II want you to i'm
press upon that plate, by an effort
of your will, the words 'Myo Ho'-
meaning marvellous processes.
The subject then stated that she saw
the words before her--in the air as
it were-and that she was trying to
impress the outlines of these words
upon the plate in Japanese charac-
ters. A few moments later she said,
They are taken," and handed the
plate to the professor. Immediately
upon the plate being developed in
the dark room, it was examined, and |
the words "Myo Ho" were found
upon it'll
Writing Through Plates.
More difficult tests were then un-
dertaken. A pile of a dozen wrapped
plates was placed upon the lap of
the psychic. She was asked to I'M
press a plate several down the pile
that is, not the top or the bottom
plate. She made an effort at will, and
in few minutes exclaimed, 81 have
