the statesmen keen discern that he has

him as he walks and razzle him with
brilliant talks. They take him riding
in their cars. refreshing him with good
cigars; they show him every kindness

And so he buys nine lots or ten, and
pays for them with iron men. He

thousand fall guys 60 back East, their
spirits soured. their tempers creased and
make this sort of roar each year and
people shudder when they hear. But
if the fall guys would upStand, when
statesmen come to sell them land. and
say, There nothing doing. lads, you

show they mean just what they say,

NEW YORK, February 1.-Olga
Petrova. actress. novelist and play
wright, believes that the theory of "vi-
brations" offers plausible scientific
basis for spirit communication"
Nine. Petrova spent several months
In Europe last Summer. during which
time she conferred with Sir Oliver
Lodge. Sir Arthur Conan Doyle and
other noted exponents OF spirit commu-
nication.
In explaining her theory. Nine.
Petrova drew a parallel between the
ripples created in a pool OF water by
the tossing of pebble with the vibra-
tions set up by the human voice.
Suppose, then." she said, some one
were to die whom loved very dearly
and between whom and me there had
been deep, tender sympathy, and
understanding in life And supposing
wished to communicate with the
spirit of that person.
II would know In the first place that
this person was not in the last analysis
dead for the energy created in space
by his life force while he existed In
the flesh would still be alive, would
still be vibrating. would still be Suscep-
tible Of perception.
And certainly this would be part
of him. And for me this would be his
spirit and / believe 1t not altogether
implausible that could receive and
understand impressions or messages
