,,-b,cb she was a sort of priestess, and
botc she had thus come in contact with
+ba Duval girl. This girl had a ''wOn-
derful gift of prophecy" and at prl-
yate sitting with her had gone into
,rance-and had given out that Mrs.
Delario was zone of the choSen"-one
Of the disciples elect of the Mystic
Cnl+ of the Crystal Sphere, whose
Headquarters were lamasary in
Tibet, and had then predicted that she
was shortly to receive the mystic
sign of initiation" and gift-cOn-
veyed through space by spirit influ-
enras-of seven bloOd-red gems, which
she was at liberty TO dispose of and
convert into cash if she desired-the
sacred masters not dealing in lucre hui
only its sublimated equivalents-and
auply to her personal needs and the
fnrtherance of her work for spiritual
ism.
On being pressed by Mrs. Delario to
tell more-name the time and place
NJ the gift-the girl had declared that
the stones would be in a small OblOng
box which Mrs. Delario would "dis-
4 cover among her things when the time
came" and that she would receive
them secretly-without NOR
tai knowledge of how they got there
and they would probably be given to
her In Paris. Beyond this the girl was
unable to go.
But Mrs. Delario accepted the pre-
3iction and greatly elated and excited
watched for the hour that was TO mark
her initiation into earthly wealth and
occult glory. The hour did not come
In Paris, and she returned to America

tant.
She unpacked. She found a slipper!
Where could be its mate? Absent
mindedly she thrust her hand into it
and found-her gift!
And you see the prophecy was full
filed she told me. II had been cho-
ken--as the Duval girl said. Every
thing came out precisely as she pre-
dicted-the diamonds really came to
me in Paris, though l didn't know it
at the time; there were seven; they
were worth enough to make me finan-
cially independent, so can go on with
my work for spiritualism; they came
without human knowledge; I found
them among my things-every detail
was correct"
1t was a frank. straightforward
story, told with heat of conviction
that think prevented her reading the
establishment that must have kept
growing in my face all the time.
II was amazing every way l looked
at 1t; the thing that struck me most
was how her memory had slipped one
little cog and allowed her belief to
roll smoothly off and land her-in
Tibet! She thought the box had been
sent to her in Paris, but she had

An Important Ownership.

When l left her house this was my
situation with Mrs. Delario - she'd
given birth to the incorrigible belief
that million dollars worth of dia-
monds had been presented to her by
an unknown lama in Tibet; sent her
through the air; glued into the toe of
her slipper, and this in answer to
prayer. And | had to reckon with it
