c&nfME MEDIUMS THURSTON America’s Master Magician. mT IS presumptuous on the part of one person to endeavor to materially change the thoughts of others, especially relating to religious - subjects. In giving rny conclusions after a quarter-century Investigation of splritims, I am not expecting readers to accept them, but venture to state them because of the Unusual opportunities I have had as a magician to Investigate psychic phenomena in many parts of the world. It may therefore be interesting to know tljis; I believe there is an Intelligent force that can manifest itself to certain people, under certain conditions, both phj'sically and mentally. I do not claim this intelligent force to be the direct manifestation of those who have departed. On the other hand, I feel firmly convinced that everything that is done in public for money, regularly, or on a stated time, in the way of psychic manifestations, is accomplished by trickery.

would be promptly paid by his secretary, Mrs. Atherton. He stated, however, he had nothing to do with Miss Bradford, and Would not be responsible for any debts Incurred by her at the hotel. The manager- told me that •when he sent this telegram up to Mrs. Prescott's room, -there was a great how-to-do. YQUr mother-in-law insisted she was jstire Jack had nos! written the telegram. She said it sounded like Fou, and you had probably written it and signed Jack’s name. This made Miss Anderson quije indignant, and she told the , manager to cot firm the wire by a telephone conversation with Mr. Prescott, charging the same on Mr. Prescott’s bill for his mother. Jack told him jou had nothing to do with it, and insisted that his orders should bfe carried put. The manager then wrote a polite note to Miss Bradford, saying he had made some mistake in ler room, and offering her a cheaper one, enclosing a bill for SSO for her five days in the suite she was occupying. Miss Anderson told me the fracas that then ensued was as good as a fareg comedy. Miss Bradford came rushing into your mother’s suite saying she had been told to leave a hotel for the first time In her life, and she called upon all her ancestors, from Governor Bradford down.
to bear witness to her respectability and the enormity of th# insult. As soon as things quieted <V>wn a little, Miss Bradford said: will 1 do now? You know, my dear Mrs. Prescott, 1 have not the money to pay this bill. I certainly thought I was your guest." This brought things to h. climax, for you must have knoWn by this time, Leslie, that your mother-in-law Is rather close. She hangs on to all the money she gets, end you and Jack pay most of her bills. While, she thought Jack and you were going to settle for Miss Bradford, she did not worry about her. She liked to have her a'round to stir up things. But she certainly did not jeliah paying t>er hotel hill of $lO a day out of her own very generous allowance. At the first hint of such a thing, she turned face so quickly that Miss Anderson said she had to hide her smile by looking out of the window. “Dear Priscilla.” said your mother-in-law, must be some great misunderstanding, for I thought of course you were paying your own way at this hotel. You will remember when you said you wanted to come and visit me, I invited you for two weeks. You had stayed six weeks at the apartment wher\ I moved here. It didn’t enter my for one minute that you -were my guest after you left the apartment. "But. my dear Mrs. Prescott.” said poor Priscilla, "you had Miss Anderson make all the. arrangements for me here.” / "Naturally I wanted to save you as much trouble as possible.” “Well, all I can say."said Priscilla Indignantly, "is that you have gotten me into mofe trouble than I expected I would ever have again.” (Copyright. 1924, NEA Service.

Martha Lee Says Wife Fights to Prove Innocence to Husband
A husband, who probably prides himself on his bigness of soul, is trying to force his wife to confess to something of which she is innocent. To be sure, he believes her guilty; but, instead of giving the benefit doubt to* which even the prisoner at the bar is entitled, he is believing her guilty until slie proves her
innocence. But he really cares littje about this proof. What he wants is a confession of guilt. If she would confess, he tells her, he would forgive her. In the meantime, he makes her suffer, mentally and physically. Cruel? He would deny such an accusation vigorously. He thir.ks himself “just.” He believes he loves his wife. , He probably even believes he would forgive her if she confessed. But the "forgiveness” of such men usually is a matter of w T ords, soon forgotten. All that her “confession” would do be to give him a sword to hold over her head. It would mean a “life term” for the innocent "prisoner” who pleaded "guilty” under the dread “third degree.”
*Not Guilty’ Dear Mies Lee: I have been married eleven years and have four ehildren. Until two years Ago we were happy. I loved my husband better than life itself. He worked away from home. He eatfie home one morning: about 3 o'clock. There were tracks where someone had driven into our place. We live on a State road. He asked me who was there, and I told him no one. When 1 tell him that now, he just gets mad alia makes threats. He oalis me names and has hit nte several t‘mes. I want, our home and want him to know more than anythin? that I always have been true I could prove it by ?oin? to court, but 1 don’t want to do that unless X just have to. ttlease advise me what to do to convince him. He says he would forgive me if I would confess, but. of course, there is nothing to confess. He always was a good provider, but now he doesn t seem to care. He says he doesn’t care for me or the children, but I think he just says that when he is angry He says he never did doubt my word before. WORRIED WIFE. It seems to me that, even if your husband had anything to forgive, the scales wot Id be even now, after Ms mistreatment of you. Do your past record, your reputation, and your character, mean nothing to him? They would in a court rocm. "So I suggest that you go to him with a unique proposal. Ask him to. let you take your case before a "judge” For the “judge.” get someone whom you both trust, and who will be fair. Then present your case, with your husband as prosecutor and you as defendant. If this does not convince your husband, my advice is to take yor cdse to a real court, where, you say you know yon can prov? yqur innocence.
