Camille Flammarion, the French as
tronomer and writer on psychic sub
| jects, has cited Camille Saint-SaenS, the
great French composer, as an example
Of the independence Of the soul rela-
lively to the body"
He died on December 16, 1921, aged
S6 years." says Flammarion. ION the
| previous 18th of October he had lunched
at my table at the Juvisay Observatory.
IL His spirit was as young as
| it had been at 20, yet he complained Of
the failure Of his organism.
He suffered from his legs. At
! the same time lie Menastral published
an article full of the spirit of youth
| from his pen on Berlioz. While his
body persisted his soul remained in full
force
In view of the celebrated scientists
| statement, it is interesting to note that
Saint-Saens himself rather vigorously
combated the idea of there being q
soul or God. Perhaps. having per-
petuated his inner being in his immortal
symphonies, he felt it unnecessary that
1t should survive in other form, and so
was not interested in the subject of the
hereafter. Nevertheless, he was not
unaware Of psychic phenomena, al
though his impressions do not clothe
such phenomena in supernatural at
mosphere.
Perhaps the most striking of Saint
Saens' psychic experiences concerned
the writing of his Requiem"
The "Requim" was begun in 1871,
more than half century before the
composers death. He was then SO years
Of age, and a soldier in the French
army, which had just been inglor.ously
vanquished by the conuuering Germans
Very likely he little thought that he
would live to see the day when the

it is related to his friend, Flammarion:

day OF the war. was at an outpost Of
Arcueil-Cachan. We had just dined off
an excellent horse, of which we had
made a stew with dandelions we had
gathered ourselves.
"Our dinner had entirely satisfied us
and we were as gay as one could be in
similar circumstances, when / suddenly
heard in my head a plaintive musical
theme of dclorous Chords-wf1ich / have
since used for the commencement OF my
'Requiem'-and felt In my inmost be-
ing presentiment Of some misfortune.
"A profound anxiety unnerVed me.
THAT was the very moment when
Henri Regnault. my friend, to whom I
was very much attached. was killed.
THE news of his death caused me
such grief that fell Ill and had to re-
main three days in bed.
IT thus proved the reality Of 'tele-
pathy' before the word was invented.
You are indeed right in saying that
classic science does not know the humen
being and that we have everything to
learn"
Saint-Saens' narrative does indeed
seem to be concerned with telepathy.
| But the principal facts he presents give
cause for all sorts of speculation.
In the midst of physical and mental
contentment he was seized suddenly by
profound anxiety and presentiment Of
misfortune.

Your Baby and Mine
BIZ MYRTLE MEYEn ELDRED.

Mrs. D. J. M. writes: 81 wonder why
9 am. Is picked by ell authorities as the
beginning Of baby's day. Since most
peop,s have supper at 8 pm. IN this
country, I think the schedules are most
inconvenient II there are children OF
school age who come home to lunch,
one cannot nurse the baby and have o
meal for them by 1880. Baby Is the
prime consideration, but the other
members Of the family have some rights,
too, and one Of them Is meals on time.
I wish you would write about this, as
many new mothers do not dare change
the schedule from 6, 10, 2, 6, no matter
how it upsets the family"
Answer-It is hardly possible that
authorities arbitrarily set upon 6 am.
as the beginning. of baby's day and
made q rule about 1t. It Is far more
likely that Observing hundreds of small
babies, the authorities discovered most
of them Wakened at this hour. The
Summer baby especially wakens as soon
as 1t Is light, and so that starts the day
of, and II one sticks to regular sched-
ule that would automatically set 1t at
6, 8, IL, 3, or 6, 10, and 6. The
Winter baby is very likely to waken
later, 50 his schedule might very easily
fall into that beginning and ending
at Z.
The only important thing in any
schedule is that 1t be kept regular. The
actual hours should be chosen to at into
the baby's own household. Mothers Of
small babies do not all have children In
school. Families do n@ ell eat dinner
at any more In this country than
any other country. Such an assump-
ton is rather q limited one, don't you
think? and probably encompasses your
immediate neighborhood or family. 1t
certainly does not hold true in any fam
lily in which the husband works until 8,
or In large city where 1t takes some
times an hour or more to reach home
after ONCE or store Is closed. It re-
mains, then, for the mother to adjust
baby to her own household, since regu-
lation is begun the first weeks Of baby's
life. and can be as easily regulated to
rations are suitable and satisfying.
In making any rules for the care Of
babies it is taken into consideration that
they can be changed If the change
makes it more convenient for the
mother. We have to suggest some
schedule, and those suggested have been
found to fit more babies and more
households perhaps than any others. I
do think you are quite right in saying
that new mothers are terrified when
they deviate from rules. honestly
believe that the mother of first baby
will do better, though. and make fewer
mistakes If she continues to cling
closely to rules. After this first expert
ence she will know better how far she
may trust her own judgment. but until
experience has given her some idea of
what can be expected of a baby good
rules are not to be scoffed at.

Planning Your Estate.

In the event death should overtake
you, in what shape would your estate
be left? None Of lis like to think Of
death, but as We grow older we sense
its imminence and the need Of being
prepared for the inevitable. It is then
we think of our estates, their compost
ton and condition.
II ones husband has had q major
share In developing our estate and he
survives, most any wife would be de-
sirous of bequeathing him the residue of
the estate. IF ones husband does not
survive, there will be the question OF
disposing of our diverse effects.
This problem Is simple when ones
family is no longer dependent. In such
an event there Is only the question of a
fair distribution of ones effects.
The woman whose problem Is most
acute Is she with q family Of young
ones to provide for when she Is gone.
OF course, her dependents may also be
older ones. In any case she will wish
than parcel out her estate.
In order to do so 1t will be necessary
to organize ones estate. Such an estate
must be so planned and managed that
1t will also make satisfactory yield
during ones own lifetime.
There are these essentials to consider
in planning ones estate: First, one
will require cash for emergency as well
as daily use. Secondly, one viii require
that q fair portion of ones estate be
invested in easily and quickly market

QUAINT PATTERN, SUITED


Patchwork porch pillows are smart
this season, especially when made Of
glazed chintz. These pillows also make
excellent chair cushions If one has a
canoe or a boat Of sufficient size not to
be drenched with spray frequently, the
cushions are just the things to have
aboard. Whether made of glazed or
soft-f1nished surface. these pillows and
cushions are delightful for old-faShioned
rooms. They are used also with mod
ern furnishings. They are a bit con-
sentative and conventional, however, to
be put with ultra-modern furniture.
There is beauty of tradition in most
patchwork. An interesting pattern is
given today

and spreading diamonds on the four
sides goes by the alluring name of

imagination it is. not hard to discover
that the diamond arrangement suggests
the wings of birds, while the large and

A Sermon for Today
Health and Happiness.
BY REV. JOHN b. GUM.

Health and Happiness.
Text-"A merry heart doeth good like
medicine. Prov, xvii.22.
Here's to your health and happiness
is toast we often drink to our friends.
But how many Of us ever stop to think
how closely these two things are related
and how surely they usually 60 along
together. One may possess happiness
in spite Of poor health, though health
is wonderful contribution to happi-
ness. But without happiness one can
scarcely hope at all for good health.
All things else being equal, where
you find merry, joyous heart you are
likely to find health of body. There is
no better health tonic than cheerful
ness. Modern medical science has dis
covered that the emotions of the heart
have a very direct and decided influ-
ence upon the functions of the heart,
lungs and kidneys. But 1t did not re-
quire the experiments carried on by
research workers to prove this fact.
Thousands OF years ago Solomon said,
"A merry heart doeth good like medi-
cine
This is something we have all OBJ
served and experienced. We require no
scientific proof to be convinced of the
close relation between happy frame Of
mind and healthy body. Yet this fact
is one that many ignore. We go ON
dosing ourselves with medicine when
what we really need is only a good dose
of mirth. Indeed, instead Of cultivating
rnirthful heart some of us seem rather
to cultivate the most miserable. sort of
moods possible.
In vain do we wish for health until
We learn to PUT into practice what both
science and experience teach us-that
to be healthy we must be happy. And
with this here's wishing you again
health and happiness.

One mother says:
When my little daughter was about
1 years of age she quite suddenly devel-
oped the habit of pulling her ears when
angry or crying. tried every known
c,lre-spanking. petting, persuasion. Of
fering of presents. Everything failed.
I was about to admit myself whipped
when one time when she was having
an unusually bad tantrum was seized
with q sudden idea.
Catching hold of her two ears, be-
gan pulling with short, vigorous jerks.
Mother, will help you, dear. Come on,
pull hard now" And suiting action to
words, did pull hard, though no harder
than she was accustomed to do. This
unusual performance caused her to stop
crying and stere at me IN wonderment
Then, when began to hurt, she starte;,
crying again, begging me to stop. After
the third repetition of this cure never
had to resort to it again. Perhaps SIM

Everyday Psychology
Systems Of Completes.
BY DIR. JESSE W. srRowLs.

According to psychoapalysis, each
person has his mental completes. Take
these completes ell together and YOU
have what is known IS personality
sometimes as character.
Some OF these mental completes are
so apparent that you can detect them
Immediately. For instance, you may
tell from a strangers conversation what
his profession or politics Is. School
teachers, ministers and travelling sales
men seem to be unable to conceal their
identities as such. They possess COM
pick of attitudes, expressions and even
bodily habits that betray the entire
trend of their visible personalities. The
completes that make up the visible per-
sonality are really nothing other than
the habits that the person In question
has acquired.
But the visible completes are after all
the smallest part Of any individual.
there lies hidden from ordinary OBJ
servation vastly more important group
of completes. These completes are so
well concealed that the individual who
has them is really not very well aware
that they constitute the essence of his
real self e., his character. In fact If
you point them out to him he is pretty
likely to take offense. No one really
wants to see himself as others see him.
No one really wants to see his real char
acter. which is composed Of the hidden
completes.
These two systems of completes exist
in every individual There is no escape
from them. When you refer to some
ones personality. you refer to what's
on the surface, and to what he is con-
tent to display. When you refer to ones
character, you have In mind system of
completes which you know only after
having been acquainted with the indi-
vidual over long period Of time.
Perhaps you have had to adjust your
estimation OF some individual from time
to time. You have then learned that
first impressions are unreliable. That
all came about because you confused at
first the two systems of completes.
