NEW YORK. Feb. 10.-- When Sir Oliver Lodge, now in Now York beginning a national lecture tour, first began his investigation of psychic phenomena. it was with the view to
expose fraud and hallucination. He
was far from a believer. He is now a confirmed spiritualist. Born in Staffordshire in June, 1851 he received an average education until at the age of fourteen he started to work in his father's business in the potteries. He very soon found this uninteresting and after attending a course of six science lectures by Prof. Tyndale, he began to study the subject at home and at evening classes. Disapointed. but deeming it best to let him follow his bent, his father sent him to University College, London. to continue his studies. Sir
Oliver b'arne demonstrator in phy-j
sies at the colbrre anrl befou lonK I his name was continually before the! public and the scientific world. I'-iily l'ndcistandablc. '
Hi.-' vreat xift is that of making smnller intellects understand thoroughly the subject on which he is speaking. Despite his own masterful Kt 'e of science, he is able to tiefer to the viewpoint of his hearers -o that afp r his rr marks their in-
.-aht into tlie j.ai tii alar phase under!
ii j.-M.:s.-;ion ,s probably as clear as his own. His interest in psychic matters extends over a period of 30 or 4 0 years, and now in professing himself a believer in spiritualism whib- acknowledging tiiat th re is always a. d.meT in n ' o'i n t int," experiences or in drawing inferenees frotrt them he proclaims that "in matter of bare fact" he is- able to '-rive a verdict. "If a man drives ::o or 4't years of his life to investitfatir.K a. thimr." he says, "be is entitled to state the result that lie has arrived at. My conclusion is that we are surrounded by beings working with us cooperating, helping --such as people in visions have had some perception of. That whiih religion tolls us that saints and an-'els ;im with its I believe is iiteraliy true." For the preterit, at least, Sir )lier is not in favor of th practice of spiritualism ,y the masses. In this he differs from rir Arthur Conan IoIe. who is touring Ihitain with a b w to con ci ting his fellows to a practical belief iti spiritualism. Sir diver cinsidrs that practical application of (I is( i cries will hae to roniain in the hands of experts, as they aunot be absorbed bytbe multitude n it bout da n -. Au I iia-stimiii Saxant.
Ferone who has heard or known Sir Oliver a-rees that he is essentially a. man m earnest-- simple, tltoro'iim and feailes. His .status as 1'iesidtiit of mathematical and physical section of the Uritish associationthe highest possible Mritish t st of attainment proclaims him beond doubt a "trreat saant" and ct his loks l.elie this P scri jt ion. There is a humorous twinkle in Iiis deep-set ryes, around his mouth are hues whih denote his human seiisitieness. and in talking with sceptics Iber is a note of kindly tolerance in bis bell-like oice. The b. arjied rof ssor of jdiysical seien e is an eica tit uphobb r of psyihbal res.;wadi. 1 la in sitislic J himself as tu the results (f tins; re
search, iie doesn't try to force his views on others. In any public utterances he always says words to' the effect that he is merely expressing his own convictions, based ,upon many years of scientific inquiry. It has been sraid that his deeprooted understanding of the artisan mind makes him tolerant of sceptic
ism and undesirous of forcing belief.
Indeed he has himself said that this attitude is a safeguard nirainst superstition and cranks-, even though he Malices that "people cannot receive proof as lon-- as they shut their minds to the evidence." Kiiwrts Hostility. However, so convinced i he as to his own discoveries he is content to po on working exclusively at psychic lesearch. "I do not expect a favorable scientific atmosphere in my lifetime," he once remarked. "I expect a continuance of hostile prejudice. Nevertheless I feel entitled to state the results of my experiments for what they are worth and leave judgment to posterity." He does not expect to be able in his life time to do all the work necessary, but firmly believes that ether and matter will prove to have psychic bearir.KT-and if, he does not live lonfT enough to provide final proofs lie hopes to make sufficient pro'-;rt -s alon the road of discovery to warrant its being pursued by his successors. He says: "The boundary between the two states the present and the future is still substantial, but it is wearing thin in places, and like excavators ensued in boring a tunnel from opposite ends, amid the roar of water and other nois-s, we are bes:inninr to bear now and again the strokes of the pickaxes of our comrades on the othT side." According to Sir (!ier Lodge, the spirits are just as eager to v;et into communication with earthly beings as he is to got into communication with them so that the inllucnce works from both sides. Favorite With Students. He is a great favuYite among science students. Though not too leni -nt a. master, his method of keeping his pupils up to the mark has a touch of humor. One of the young men attending his lectures once gave considerable trouble. Taking him by tiie s ruff of the neck ir Oliver inietly and quickly landed him outside the door. "If yuu behave like a schoolboy. 1 must treat you like one." he ex
plained. on another occasion he heard one of his students remark that he had a great contempt for I'lato. Sir Oliver
retorted: "A contt-mpt, I am utraid, not bred by familiarity." In response to a rpues-tjon as to the kind cf food he most favored h replied: "No time to think about it. I eat whatever comes too much rrobably." As regards drink, though h rs not "dry" h e sa.ya he drinks "next to nothing except on occasions of hospitality," when he takes "whatever is goir.fe-." He did not smoke at all until 40 years old and very littlo since; but in all these matters he shows tho broad tolerance of the master-mind which goes well with his line upright physique. IMontvr of W "irolos. Fir Oliver is one of I'nirland's foremost electricians and a pioneer of wireless. He hrus published many works on mechanics, educational systems, and general science. His last book was "Raymond" the muchdiscussed spiritualist book purporting to bo a series of long- conversations with his dead son. Raymond. This book called forth much criticism from his scientific friends, but to them i?lr Oliver shows the suune spirit of tolerance which characterizes his attitude to all sceptics. Confident of the result of his own discoveries and the truth of the beliefs which he has built thereon he is content to let the rest cf the world "wait and see."

cA fact:
The Reason? "Just Enough Turkish" College men were amon the first to recognize the merit of Fatima's blend, and to carry their preference for it into ever wider circles -of society and business. Today, at nearly every big hotel, and at more and more of the exclusive clubs, East and "West,Fatima is the leader solely because its skillfully balanced blend appeals to discriminating emokers. Neither too much nor too little Turkish tobacco, m "just enough Turkish" jre is the secret of Fatima's distinctive end ever-pleasing taste.
At Yalo as at Harvard, Fatima teach. According to the widely-known tfYale Record," Fatiina is the largest-selling cigarette at the stndent grills in Dwight and Byers Halls, as well as at popular tohacco shops around the Campus.
