To give a few in- stance. A lady in crystal gazing saw a bit of dark wall covered with whit flowers. Khe waa co ti scion she must , have aeen It somewhere, but had no recollection where. Hhe walkl over the gTonnd alio liad jnnt traversed and found the wall, which she hud passed unnoticed. ' She took out ber Ixinklxxik another day. Shortly af ti-rwanl she wa gazing at the crystal and saw nothing but the number one. Kho thought it was aome hack number, but, taking up the bank book, found to ber aurpriso it waa the number of the account At another time she dmtroyed a let ter without noting tho addnwe. Hho could only remember tho town. After gazing at the crystal some timo she aow "821 Jefferson avennu." Hhe ad-drewK-d the letter there, adding tbe town, and found it waa right. A lady sat in a room to write where sho hnl sat eight year before. Kho felt her feet moving reHtlesttly under tho ta ble and then remembered that eight year before she always hud a fuotMtool It was this her feet were seeking Psychical research brings to light many caacs of slmilnr strange tricks of memory.
