Perhaps William James Stillman, the
American journalist and artist-better
known, perhaps, for his writing than
for his painting-noted an unusual
number OF supernormal occurrences be-
cause he was on the lookout for them.
He was, indeed, an eXperimenter in
psychic matters, but his conclusion was
that he had obtained no valid evidence
through professional mediums.
OF many happenings inspiring specu-
latiOn which Mr.. Stillman has noted,
none is more interesting than those in
the case of Mrs. H. K. Brown. wife Of
the noted American sculptor, and John
RuSktn, the English art critic and
author. OF Mrs. Brown 1t should be
said that she was a charming woman
of remarkable intellectual powers Not
only Mr.. Stillman, but William Cullen
Bryant. the American poet, and others
testified that she possessed the ability
to read thoughts.
"She has reeounted to me events in
my past life unknown to any living
person but myself" Bryant told Still
man.
In her presence there was nothing
In my past life beyond her perception, I"
He recounts, too, that "she answered
readily any questions proposed in the
minds of her. interlocutors, often even
before they were completely formed"
Mrs. Brown claimed to have an inner
voice which formed words stating con-
ditionS or situations which she did not
herself know. Like Socrates, she was
able to obey this daemon with conf
dence.
A trivial incident reveals the man.
Aer In which this inner voice even spoke
contrary to her conscious observation.
: On fishing trip in wild part of
New York State, Mr.. and Mrs. Brown
had breakdown while returning to the
railway station. and had to take their
wagon to a blacksmith for repairs. They
were still some distance from the sta
ton when Mrs. Brown said: I'VE will
lose our train
The inner voice spoke up: mo, the
train. is late: you will arrive with a
minute to spare"

Was barren and dry, and unpopu-
Before the days 1t was irrigated.
But now like a rose in the morning

She's a thing Of beauty. this Valley

With her fruits and palms and
