MEDIUM JUST SICK, WASN'T ECTOPLASM Scientists Finally Found Out Her Stomach Was Out of Order. INTERNATIONAL NEWS SERVICE PARIS, Sept.-It took four Sorconne scientists more than three months, meeting once a. week, to determine that little Evas' had vomiting fits. If "Little Eva" had been just anybody, any common physician might have arrived at a vulgar conclusion In one "visit". But "Little

"Little Eva" and the group she had gathered abut her called her fits 'seizures," and told the world that she emitted from her mouth an "ectoplasm" which, assumed the hape of Individuals long since dead. Believers In the occult brought "Little Eva" to the attention of the psychology department of the Sorbonne. Professors Georges Dumas and Henri Peiron, of that department; Professor Louis Laport. physiologist and Dr. Langier, chief of the physiological laboratory, determined to investigate. "Little Eva" held for their benefit fifteen seances. At times she

It may be that our sight is not just what it used to be, but it seems to us as though all the magazine heroines are beginning to look a good deal alike. We picked up a magazine the other evening and in three stories the heroines were Margery. Helen and Beatrice. No it was natural to suppose that no relationship existed among these girls at all. There is scarcely a chance that they could ever have, met because the scenes of the stories were laid in different countries. But they looked as alike as triplets. One of them could have stepped out of one story into another, and none of the heroes who loved them could have told the difference, which situation in itself might have led to

Writes Mrs. Hardee Regarding Lydia EL Pinkham's Vegetable Compound

Foolish people used to blow out the gas. Now they step on it,

At one time it was believed that these phenomena were a sub-con-scious attempt on the part of "Little Eva" to imitate the convulsions attendant on child-bearing, but this hypothesis was dismissed. Finally after many vain attempts the "ectoplasm" appeared! In the light of a pocket lamp "It" was seen to be a filmy substance, which hung from the lipe of the medium, finally re-entering the mouth. But of all those present at the seance only one a confirmed spiritualist, saw any likeness in the "ectoplasm" to a human1 shape. The experiments were continued until the mysterious substance appeared a second time. This time the professors declared that it was apparently composed al-

Relieve Congestion Through Courtesy

Drivers who complain that others at the wheels of motorcars refuse to give them one-half the road should ask themselves whether they grant that courtesy to other motorists. The congestion of the highways can be relieved by driving courtesy, declares William G. Fisher, salesmanager for the McGlll Motor Company, distributors of the Gardner Light Four. "The driver of one car never knows what brings the driver of another car out on the highway," said Mr. Fisher. "It is often true that the big tar is rolling along for pleasure while the smaller car is speeding with some doctor in what may be a life or death case. Since we cannot know, it behooves us to be courteous at all times.''
