COBB TN THE spring of 1919 a few months after the Eighteenth Amend ment went into effect a Texan passed from this life. While the funeral services were in progress at the late home of the deceased, two of the men mourners stood on the front porch of the house lamenting the passing of their friends and praising his virtues. Said one of them: "There wasn't no finer feller anywhere than what Bill was, but the main trouble with him was he wasn't forehanded. He had a wife and a whole pas?el of children and he should a-bot n more saving than wftat he was. He might a-knowed he couldn't live on forever. But no, he lived up to everything he made. And here now, right in the very prime of life, with a family on his hands, he haulo olf and die.? without leaving no state as I knows of." "The hell he didn't leave no estate!" exclaimed the other.

Experiments which ho rays mathematically prove the existence of telepathy were made public by Trof. Rhine, of Duke uni versity. The odds against cliaiuc be ing the explanation of these results he says run into astronomical fig ures, not merely ot millions or bil lions to one against, but up in the quintillions or sextillio-is. Dr. Rhine has been making tele pathy experiments for five years and thes.T new results come from ter.ts set up to nuet criticisms of other scien tists that the former proofs might have been due to involuntary whis pering, sensory clues or habitual symmetry 'of mental patterns. The telepathy was based on a special deck of 2") cards, whose faces bore one of five designs, a star, a plus sign, wave, reck tangle or circle. There were live of. each in the pack. Miss Sara Ownbey, Duke psychol ogist, imagined these cards, one after another, as they might lie in the pack. "GZ" another Duke psychol ogist, a man. sat with eyes closed, in deep abstraction from his surround ings, and told card by card what Miss Ownbey was thinking. He did not always read her mind.
