 spirits, who have come to me in my dreams and told me what to do.' When he was building the route of the Kansas City Southern, MT. Stilwell
 said he was warned by his spirits not to build the terminal at Galveston, as Sabine, where he built the terminal of N.a disaster, but to terminate it at Lake Port Arthur, which he named after him.
 -Four days after the terminal was
 completed" he said "the great tidal
 wave wiped out Galveston" MT. Stilwell said that nearly all his | life he had made secret of his powers because he feared that people would think him nut" For years, howev-
 CT, some of his friends and many di- rectors in companies associated with
 him knew the source of his inspira- tions and believed ill his spirits. q have transcribed scores of poems which have been dictated to my by spirits. I have written the music of
 many songs which have been dictated
 to me by spirits ask them why they choose me. They say, for some reason 1 it is easier to communicate through you than through others. You don't | know why and neither do we.

 P|MPLES AND fIi;ojHH fI,.oHH
Says Sulphur is Quickest to Clean
 Up An Ugly Skin

Any breaking out of the skin on face, neck, arms or body is overcome quickest by applying Mentho-Sul- phur. The pimples seem to dry right up and go away, declares a noted skin specialist.
 Nothing has ever been found to take the place of sulphur as pimple remover. It is harmless and inex- pensive. Just ask any druggist for a small jar of Mentho- Sulphur and use it like cold cream.
