Junior could hear the steady squeak
squeak of the Swaying ropes IL
would be Isabelle, curled and berib-
boned. daintily holding her big doll,
likewise curled and beribboned. Just
what there is in the contemplation
of an Immediately clean, piously
good little girl to rouse the ire of
a semi -soi!ed. ungodly little boy is one
with the mysteries of the sphinx.
Junior. at thought of Isabelle sitting
placidly in the hammock, was seized
with an uncomfortable desire to
startle her out of that state of calm
ness into one of sudden agit9 ton.
So he crept through an opening in
the hedge into the Thompson yard,
pausing, with an imaginary dfstended
tail. to crouch and spring at robin
in the grass. Failing to capture his
prey. he crawled noiselessly toward
the porch. placed his forepaws on the
latticework, and emitting a low
whining purr, peered through the
vines.

WITH X-RAY EYES.
CONTINUED from First Page.)

wealthy callers Schermann makes a
charge; to those without means he
extends the use of his marvellous gift
free if he discerns any merit in their
cases.
0NE day L called at his apartment
" and asked him to explain his gift
of second sight.
Il have no explanation" he said.
"Al 1 know is that my gift was born
with me. When l was still a baby l
was irresistibly interested in any
thing written. l picked UP thrown
away envelopes and searched scrap
baskets for letters. l found pecu-
liar pleasure in gazing at these
things even before l could read and
write. l looked at written charac-
ter as a kind of mysterious image.
When / was nine years old some one
put a slip of paper in my pocket on
which was written: Teacher is an ass.
1 studied the writing and j decided
which of the boys wrote it. When
approached him he was so perplexed
that he admitted it.
Later on, to my great astonish-
ment, 1 discovered that when 1 looked
at a sample of writing, any writing,
1 could see its author-not only his
face and figure. but his whole life, his
background. his destiny. l could not
describe just exactly what form this
sight took with me until 1 went to a
motion picture theater for the first
time. Then 1 had the term. l saw
the lives of people whose hand
writing 1 studied in long reels of
mental motion pictures. as it were.
But it was not necessary for me to
see handwriting. If a person touches
a piece of paper before ! get it, ii
works the same way. The impor-
tant thing is that this relation be-
tween ME and other people-a rela-
ton that / cannot understand any
more than you-is transmitted by pa
per.
When l touch a piece Of paper like
that L can tell whether the person
who touched it before me was in
good or bad humor. l feel what he
has been doing and what he is going
to do next.
Don't ask me who gave me my
power. l don't know. All / know
is that 1 have it. You may say it
was bestowed on me by God or by
some mysterious cosmic force. But
there is something in me that keeps
on telling that I must utilize this gift
| of mine for the public good
1t is a fascinating experience to
talk to Schermann. 1t is also rather
disc"ncerting. For he looks into your
eyes and tells you what you are think
ing. More than that. he tells you all
about your past-things which you
have forgotten yourself and which
! are conjured up from oblivion by this
unique magician.
