A lot of Indiana voters will remember in two years from now when Jim Watson is running for the senate that to went to Maine and assisted Brewster and the Klan. Guess a few mornings like this will make you talk it over with the coal, man Just as sure as the house stands for a month or two now you are going to neeu at least enough fuel to take "the chill off. This is the time when the fuel bins ought to be filled. John W. Davis, democratic candidate for president, will speak at Fort Wayne Saturday night of next week and the first big rally in this past of the state is to be staged. E. G. Hoffman, well known leader and former member of the national committee from this state, has been named as chairman and is now completing the plans for the big event. Ralph Brewster, klan-picked candidate. was, yesterday, elected governor of Maine, defeating William R. Pattengall, anti-klan democrat, by a majority, estimated this morning at 35.000. Two years ago the republican candidate won by 65,000 while the normal republican majority with the women voting, is about 50,000. Democrats had hoped to reduce the majority below 25.000. Indications are that the election is about a draw so far as it is a barometer and now they will have to go ahead and hold the November elections.

Face to Face r. With HOPE EDEN The Mind Reader s (By Joe Mitchell Chapple) * On the stage Hope Eden seems a like a tiny slip of a girl in her U 'teens, refuting the (general idea - that mind readers must necessarily jbe queer looking people. Face to I face, we find Hope Eden is a sweet I looking, natural and clever young , woman whose remarkable work has brought her the most astounding letters from many people prominent in public life, whose names m-sroly mentioned establish confidence. By whatever it may be called, her work lias the elei ent of mystery that fascinates eve y human being to we extent. “There are only about three men in , the United States with whom I can work and one of them is Norman Frescott. my h'.sband," she smiled, as she introduced him. “His mind I ' is attuned to mine, and it is possible for me to transport questions from his brain to my own.” 1 In a photograph of Hope Eden when she is reading minds it is difficult to tell whether she is asleep 1 or awake. Her eyes have the ap- I pearance of both states of conscious- 1 ness. Thomas Edison has given big en- ’ dorsement of telepathy Hope Eden 1 herself says in reference to this * power of the mind: • “Mind development may yet revo- ‘ lutionize human relations. In two ' persons whose souls are completely) 1 in harmony, telepathic powers can ‘ be developed by constant trial and experimentation. Suppose your bus-! • band is passively reading, smoking/ his pipe or cigar, letting his mind 1 completely relax. Stand near him, f but so as not to attract his attention; 1 or impress him with the nearness of 1 your presence. Concentrate your; mind on a single idea. Fix it firmly 1 before yoar mental vision. Deter- > mine that this single idea shall be 1 projected into his consciousness. 1 > Various influences may militate 1 against immediate success, but keep on—concentrate! Picture him doing 1

Be sure to hear him this week if you can. , While the political workers will make every possible effort to ascertain just who is not registered to vott I in this county, this can not be done one hundred per cent, without the as- , sistance of every voter. If you know r of some person who is not registered , and who should vote, be sure to remind them of the fact that the only . day for registration in this county is r October 6th. If you are a first voter, v if ycu have never voted or register- - ed, if you have moved from one pre(j cinc.t to another or are a new arrival n here, you must register or you cannot ! vote. Remember this assist the e committees in securing a complete e and accurate registration. There are three ways to register, by filling out 1 the blank and having it acknowledged ? before a notary, by using two witnesses from ynur precinct, by calling t at the voting place on October 6th and ; s filling out the blank. Do the one most.

the thing you want him to do- Suppose it is to rise from his chair, come over to your chair and kiss you. It has been done. Mind will confer with mind in telepathy: which even goes a step further than the radio, making transmission of thought entirely independent of any mechanical device.” Hope Eden wears her hair bobbed Egyptian style and was the youngest mind reader on the stage. Not many years after her birth in Boston at the home on Falmouth street in the Back Bay district, little Hope Eden insisted that her childhood chum was a little spirit boy, the dead brother she had never seen. Her weird ability in mind reading early attracted attention, and she has been reading minds ever since that day when, playing with her dolls, the spirit of a little playmate came to her. Scientists and mediums have given her tests. At the age of five a famous doctor tested her powers and referred to her as the child medium She does not claim any special credit for her gifts, because they come to her naturally. “Mind reading appeals to me now because I see where I can be of help to others. It is as simple for me to tell the answer to a question about the future as it is to tell about something that I have done in the past. The answer comes to me like a flash, without any deliberation.”

But the nights are getting cool And its nearly time for school. And the golden red the sunset glorys share.
