Tho strange gift has proved of wonderful service to tho father in tho practice of his prpfoa tilon. When u patient has some for eign substance dlstuibiitg Ida vitalH, or some anomalous condition ha til log tho parental skill, tho boy with tho X-ray eyes just glances through tho man's system and locates tho trouble at once. Now this suggeats what might bo an important innovation in tho mining Industry. Suppose tho doctor should turn his kid looso iu snnio mining district, the magnetic locators wouldn't bo iu it. Mind lodges would forthwith acquire vision, and tho hidden wealth would come into plain sight. TIiIh youth could gao into tho bowels of tho planet, just as he does into thm-o or a human being, and toll the mining man where to dig, just as ho tells his proud pa. It would bo a groat thing. Again, the doctor might bo able to hypnotize other kids and impart to them the high power teloHcopic eye. And if so he could become the founder of an industry which' as a money maker would erlipso the Standard Oil. Mining men should communicate with the doctor and see what can be done. The importance of this matter eiiuiiot be overestimated, and it demands immediate attention.
