Prophecies Which Have Come True
MADAatE DB THEBES, the well
known rarlslan Vaeeress," prepared
a, forecast fbr 1914 In an American pnper,
and In view of the great European war.
the Pope's death and other notable cur
rent events, It Is Interesting to turn back
and glance at the same,
"In Italy I foresee a new Pope," she
wrote. "Great changes wilt come with
him and there will be n deielopment of
friendly relations between the Vatican
lind the Italian Government."
"The tragic hnndB which I have 'exam
ined are among people from Southern
countries. It seems to me that It Is In
that direction we shall see the sacrifices
demanded by Moloch. The victims of
revolution and war will be more numer
ous there than anywtiere cine "
"Germany will be disturbed by the sen
sational (light of an Illustrious person. It
Is an omtnoua year for the Kaiser of
Germany, and no glory will accrue to
him from Its momentous events."
"The hands of Austrlans which I have
examined aro very menacing. Death and
run threaten the venerable Austrian Em
peror. Bloodshed, riots and 'conflagra
tions will umict the Austrian empire. The
hands of Hungarians aro even more terri
fying than those of Austrlans. From the
direction of Dohemla a more violent re
bellion against German Influence than has
ever been known before Is threatened.
The Austrian empire Is tottering to Its
ruin. Nothing can nrrest the march of
destiny."
"The many hands of Americans whlcn
I have? examined," continued Madame de
Thebes, "convince me that 1914 will be a
"year of extraordinary misfortunes for
thejUnlled States. For South American
countries It will bo a year of good for
tune. But everything points to disaster
for the great republic of the Northern
Continent.;
On this question of a "sixth sense." as
It has been popularly called, much has
been written and much controversy has
been aroused. Hut one thing Is certain,
and that Is that some people do seem to
have this pocu'lnr gift, this "sixth sense."
or, os It Is sometimes called, "second
sight." It Is as If they had the peculiar
power of raising n corner of the Impen
etrable veil uh'lcli hides the future, and
of glance be- oiul.
In the Ion stands which lie off tho
west coast u. .Uotland, and which are
known as the Hebrides, there dwell many
old folks who seem possessed of this pe
culiar gift, I have talked with them 111
so far It is possible to talk, for they have
only a broken-English method of con
versation and then relapse back Into
Gaelic. Vet their powers of telling past
events and foretelling future events ale
wonderful More than that, they ni pos
itively uncanny! There Is something In
tho loneliness of these western Islands,
with the sound of the wacs breaking on
the rocks and the calling of the sea birds
for company, which drives the mind back
on Itself and renders perception curiously
acute
In the west of Ireland It Is the same,
too. The old peasant women, with faces
which aro tollworn and ueathcrbeaten,
yet have a curiously peaceful look, as if
they were at one with nature and had
learned the secret of Infinite calm. The
poverty may bo appalling, they may ho
living In llttlo peat huts, with a rough fire
In the centre of tho room and a hole
stuck In the roof to let the smoke out
er, as generally happens, the rain In
but poverty and mud floors matter little
to them when the mind Is culm and the
are living In predictions of a happier fu
ture. But as for us ordinary mortals well,
wo find happiness In more material ways.
And the lifting of the veil which hides
the future Is a thing not given many of
us to nttompt.

brand-new trowel, an equally new
spade, a rake and a package of nastur
tium seeds. "There now!" she said wjth
a, big sigh, "I think I have everything,"
"Tou surely have," replied her mother
laughingly, "and now that you have
everything, what are you going to do?"
"I Intend to make a garden," said Mary
Jane with dignity, and out toward the
back yard she started.
Arriving there, she picked out the
beat corner of the spot mother had said
she. might have for her own and began
working. Oh yea, she knew exactly what
to do! Hadn't she seen father and
brother Ned make a garden many a time?
This time she meant to fool them she
was going to have her garden all made
and planted long before they even
guessed what she was about! You know
yourself what fun It Is to fool grown
folks especially when they have an
Idea taa the grown folks In Mary Jane's
family had) that little folks can't do
ihjngy Just because they are not grown
up!
She laid her seeds, her trowel and rake
on the grass near by and began opera
ttoru with the spade. But something was
wrpnr with the spade evidently for the
queer thing wouldn't go way down Into
the ground as it did for father! Mary
Jane, stopped and looked at it thought
fully "You look all right," she said to
It Anally, "but you surely don't go down
deep Into the ground as you ought to.
Why I have seen father turn up a great
spadeful of soil and then dump it down
Into little lumps!" She thought a mln

up the spade, dug up Mary Jane's gar

then slipped into the house for his

Hardly was he out of light tilt Mary
Jane waked up. (Maybe the lunch time
had something to do with her waking,

Mignon's Political Instinct
Ruth's retinue of ex'schoolmates was
paying her a Mslt at the Exfctutlve Man
sion, ihe homo of her uncle, Stephen
Thorn, Governor of tho Stnte, likewise i
guardian of Ruth. Sometimes It was dif
ficult for him to determine which of
these positions presented the more In
tricate complications.
He was past Ills nuth, but had not
yet npproached middle nge Tho ex
school friends found him awe-Inspiring
and regarded him from a distance with
romantlo Interest.
' That little silvery patch on each tem
ple Is so distingue,' aidently declared
Lucilo.
"Makes one think of the lending man
In a play when 10 years ute supposed to
elnpse between acts," jljgicil Mlgnon
Gray.
It was a source of delight lo the others
that even Mlgnon felt the influence ot
their host's demeanor and lefiained in
his presence from Indulgence In filv
olous conversation.
To Mlgnon It was a matter for chagrin.
Sho fortilled herself lontlnuully bj im
pressive reminders that he was of the
people, for tb,o people, by tne Dsuple, uon
as she, and that a Uuoiuur "was not ho
much, anyway, but the gubernatorial dig
nity hung around h.m still, und hei
forced courage oozed uva whenever lie
addressed her.
One morning the retinue, with the ex
ception of Mlgnon, Hooped away to Hie
golf links. Mlgnon remained at home to
write letters, but wnen she knew her
self to be alone In this big, stately
house, she suddenly oxpcilenced a sen
sation of her childhood days, and 'was
impelled by an Irresistible uisliu "to be
naughty." The daring Idea of calling
upon Ruth's uncle seized her.
"I'd like to sec lilm on duty," she
mused. "1 mUlit yes, I will go Incog
nito." There was a chest upstairs containing
garments belonging to Ruth's depaited
kin.
Presently there emerged from the ex
ecutive mansion a qu.ilnt little figure,
clad In nn old-fashioned flower-sprigged
skirt, a lace mantllln, a neat straw bon
net and u lace-edged veil.
Tho Capitol was only a short distance
from the Executive Mansion, and Mlg
non met few persons Tho guard, who
stood in tho bioad corridor as she en
tered, did not vouchsafe her a second
glance as he directed her to the execu
tive olllce.
Mlgnon did not follow his directions.
Ruth had told her how she gained his
private sanctum when she v. as In a hur
ry and did not have time for tho led
tape channels of approach through pri
vate secretary and messenger She
slipped Into the "Governor's Parlor," and
boldly opened tho door from there Into
his private olllce.
The Governor chunccd to be alone, and
ho turned m surprise to see who was so
bold in Intrusion.
"Did you wish to see me, madam?" he
asked In courtly manner, placing a chair
for the visitor.
"You arc the Governor?" asked a
queer, hli?h-pltched voice.
"I am," he admitted.
"I came to see If you would give me a
position In tho Capitol. I am the widow
of a soldier and I pay taxes "
"A soldier's widow?" asked the Gov
ernor with Interest. 'In which war did
your husband serve. Civil or Spanish
American?" There was a moment's hesitation be
fore Mlgnon decided to locate "her hus
band" in the Civil War.
"What was his company, and In what
regiment did he enlist?"
Silence.
"Don't you know the number of his
regiment?"
"Oh, yes; thirteen."
"And what State?"
"Pennsylvania."
"And what was the letter of his com
pany," he asked, beginning ,to make a
memorandum
"Why R!" triumphantly.
His pencil poised.
"The companies were only lettered to
K, forJnfantry, you know."
"Then probably It was K," she said.
"K looks like R, you know."
"Yes, sometimes," ha admitted, "but
what kind ot a position did you wish?"
"Any position!" desperately.
"What experience have you had?"
"I have copied legal papers," remejn
berlng a brief she had once copied for
her father, who had wrathfully con
fined It to the flames with the criticism
that it resembled his Chinese laundry
check.
"Have jou. Indeed!" he said In evident
surprise, and Mlgnon felt that she had
acquired Importance In his regard The
Governor seemed to be absorbed In medi
tation, and Mlgnon began to feel the
silence embarrassing.
"I don't know of any vacancies or
openings at present," he finally remarked,
"but if you will make a formal applica
tion and leave It here on file, I will
communicate with you as soon as the
opportunity offers,"
"Oh, thank you!" she said gratefully.
"I don't seem to have any blank
forms," he said, looking over the papers
scattered on his desk. "However, I'll
write one out nnd you can lgn it, and
leave your address also."
Mlgnon had already decided upon a
name and address, so when he presently
handed her a paper he had written, she
removed her glove and on the lino Indi
cated she wrote: "Nancy Bettens, 611 L
street."
He studied the signature carefully.
"And what was your husband's flrat
name. Mrs. Bettens?"
"Adam," waa tne gUD response.
"You'll hear from me soon, Mrs. Bet
tens." Mlgnon took this as a dismissal and
rose to go.
"Do you think there Is any hope?" she
could not resist asking as she gained the
door.
"I do, The fact of your being a sol
dier's widow and your having had experi
ence In office work will lead me to con
sider your application favorably, I shall
offer you a position very soon," he re
plied earnestly.
"What fun I shall have telling the
girls'" thought Mlgnon as she sped home.
When she had made a change of costume
she discovered, to her dismay, that It
was too late to Join the girls at the coun
try club for luncheon, as'she had prom
ised. White she was reflecting on this
change in her program the library door
opened and the Governor entered.
"Oh, there Isn't any luncheon!" she
said. "The girls are at the golf links.
Mrs. Farham is Invited out for the day
and I I made a mistake In the time and
didn't meet them. You weren't expected."
"I didn't come for luncheon," he re
plied, "but what will you do?"
"Oh, the cook will see that I don't go
hungry," she laughed. Borne way, her
fear of him had vanished,
"Let me see to that instead of letting
the cook. Will you go to luncheon with
ma now?"
"What have you been doing all the
morning?" he asked, as. the sat at a
little palm-screened table.
"I've been writing," she replied in a
ruminating tone.
"So have I, and I feel the need of
recreation. WJ1I you drive with me after
luncheon?"
Mlgnon decided she would not tell the
girls of her morning- call. As the days
went by (ho became the companion of
the Governor in his hours of ease Ono
evening, a she sat alone In .the library
he suddenly appealed and laid a paner
before her She caught her braih. It

"I hae come for the fulfilment of your
promise," ho said gravely.
Sho had not read the paper that morn
ing In his office, as he had given her no
opportunity to do so. With burning
cheeks she now perused tho startling ap
plication: "I do hereby faithfully promise that

"Well?" ho asked cntrcatlngly.
"It Isn't legal or binding," she said do
flantty, "because you see It Is signed by

"Will you not remedy that defect?"
"I prefer," sho Bald softly, "that you

The Beauty Doctor
on Cold Baths
"I always take a cold bath every morn
ing In spring and summer," remarked a
girl to me tho other day. "Somo one tol.l
me cold baths act as splendid skin and
complexion tonics, and yet look at my
muddy skin!"
And her skin was muddy, very much
the color of putty, with the addition of a
slight bluey tinge, which spoko of a de
fective circulation.
"You are not the subject for cold
baths," I told her. "Your circulation Is
not good enough In future take warm
baths Instead."
"But my friend swears by her cold
tub," she persisted, "She says tho regular
taking of it has done her no end of good."
"That may be, but ono person's meat
Is only apt to be ( nother person's poison,
nnd because cold baths agree with her
that Is no reason why they wiuld agree
with you. Here Is a test. If your cold
baths are doing you good, you should
feel a pleasant, warm glow all over your
body after your rub-down."
"Good gracious!" she Bald. "I never feel
warm after a cold bath, I feel simply
chilled for hours."
Well, her words bore out the truth of
what I had eald. If you feel cold and
shivery nfter a cold bath, give up takimr
cold baths for good and all; they will
only do you harm, ruin your digestion
and your health and perhaps also cause
actual heart weakness In time.
But you can have the Invigorating ef
fect some people derive from bathing in
cold water by a cold sponge-down after
your warm bath.
Just before you are going to get out
of the bath It's a good plan to hold a
sponge full of cold water to the nape of
your neck and squeeze the water out.
allowing it to run over your shoulders.
You've no Idea what a tonic this Is and
how fresh and vigorous It makes you feel.
But the best tonic of all Is the brisk
rub-down. with a rough towel after the
bath. You should rub and rub with the
towel until your skin glows.
A little ammonia In the bath Is very
refreshing. Bath salts aro good, too, be
cause they soften the water, causing the
soap to lather more freely than It other
wise would.
It Is always better to take a hot bath
at night If you can manage It. If you
take it In the morning Just before going
out you are liable to catch cold. A warm
bath at night Induces such a restful feel
ing, too, after the work and worry of the
day, only don't take It too soon after a
big meal, Sometimes It la actually dan
gerous to do this.
Two or three spoonfuls of eau-de-cologne
added to the bath water as a lux
ury every now and then, say before go
ing out to a party, make It dellciously
pleasant and aromatic. Eau-de-cologne Is
always refreshing, too, as you know.
An occasional Turkish bath does good
In many cases, but never on any account
take one without consulting a doctor, for
they aro actually harmful a many con
stitutions, and if they are unsulted to you
they will only Injure your health.

or black-nnd-whlto creation
was striking enough, but It was far from
becoming to the majority of women.
Tho thin woman looked thinner still, nnd
her stout sister looked grotesque. The
candy strlpo Is moro becoming to tho
averago woman, because, In tho case of
silks, tho backgrounds aro usually dark,
and this has a tendency to minimize one's
defects. All the fashionable colorings aro
shown In these materials tans, grays,

background of navy or midnight blue.
Ono of tho prettiest striped gowns seen
this season Is shown here. It Is a model
from a well-known designer, and, of
course, Is mado of navy bluo taffeta.
That goes without saying this season.
Tho practical lines of tho dress mako It
ideal for street wear. Tho blouse Is full,
with nn upstanding collar of the slrk,
faced with a second collar of white tsf.

Tho skirt was Just the simple, striped

from practical for everyday wear. The
hat worn with this Is a chlo tailored
model, faced with midnight blue velre't,

Memories
Once moro, onco more, my Mary dear,
I sit by that lone stream,
Where first within thy timid car
I breathed Iovo's burning dream.
The birds we loved still tell their talo
Of music, on each spray,
And still tho wild roso decks tho vale-
But thou art far away.
I stem to hear thee speak my name
In sweet low murmurs now;
I seem to feel thy breath of flame
Upon my cheek and brow;
On my cold lips I feel they kiss.
Thy heart to mine Is laid
Alas, that such a dream of bliss
Llko other dreams should fade!
