CHAPTER II.

This seance was in July, 1919. Ar
thur walked to their apartment Myra
was amused by her mothers bewilder-
ment.
Don't worry, dear" she said. "The
message should have promised a few
thousand dollars for Myra's fingers so
I could support us both while ] build
up practice as an NJ D."
Mrs. Farnham sighed. She was a
small wisp of a woman, always In
black, though Myra knew of no deaths
to mourn. The girl had discovered one
day in indianapolis, when she was only
16, that her mother was straining body
and mind, as a dressmaker, to keep her
at school. She announced the next day
that she had gone to work in a medi.
cal publishing concern and that hence
forth she would look after the house.
Gently, deftly, Myra took all burdens
on herself, Subsequently she decided to
become physician, began by train
ing as a nurse, then took her mother
aud herself to Chicago where she stud
led at the university. When the war
broke out she Joined the Red Cross,

she did one third the work at three
Myra was twenty four now with a
straight, 1.-THE body, vigorous health and
a free swing to her step. She was sup
porting them both and had money in
the bank. Her mother, with a mind as
wispy as her body, had given up the
long, wearying struggle and kept her
worn, rusty eyes on the life beyond,
tired out, not unwilling soon to well
come her own translation.

CHAPTER I.

BIyra's fingers were held warmly in
in Arthur's hands. Miss Campion had
not expected that Mr.. Brownson would
take such an advantage Of the mediums $
order to touch hands lightly on the table
in the dim room. She was sure his
other hand did not press as closely
The thrill she felt at contact warned
her to withdraw them gently, but that
would have broken the circle. So she
was glad he could not see her color
ebb and flow to the fux and refux Of
his unconscious pressure. No word Of
love had been spoken between them.

and was happy.

Myra was sure she must have benz
over his bed after he was gassed at

To her surprise Arthur Joined Mrs.
Farnham in urging the visit to Mrs.
Atwater. So now they were in the
semi darkness about the big table. Mrs.
Atwater had greeted him as friend.

BLOOMINGTON, Jan. 17.-Eighteen-

EDITORS NOTE-Can the living
communicate with the dead? This
fascinating tale deals with that big
question. It is a skillful piece of en-
tertainment, filled with surprising
twists and vivid as a three-act play.
Spirit connection becomes an aid in
untangling an apparently UnsOlvable
mystery. The story is different from
the kind you usually read, and will
be altogether worth while Start
