Kill; I Spiritualism la one of the resorts In which the 111-at-ease find rest. So, at least. It Is In the case of Mrs. Stanler. a scion of nobility, whose Jlfe has been scarred almost beyond recognition by misfortune, dleease and poverty, and who has found ; respite in seeking, the spiritual. . - -t Mrs. Stanley Is now a medium. 11 vine- is a small, poorly furnished room, mak ing barely enough to pay her room rent and give her bread and milk to live on. Sometimes she does not have the milk. bat "graham bread- la good," ahe ears. Her clothes are given to her by friends, of whom there are few, and shs sees few people from day to day. Tet she speaks cheerfully of her lot; "thanks God for what she- has," Is cheerful, though rem iniscent, and credits all her happiness to her "wonderful powers of spiritualism,'' as she modestly calls them. - Mrs. Stanley's ancestry could hardly be guessed from her surroundings. One would never think that she comes from one of the best families of America, and that her relatives are well to, do, al though their minds forget her place -In the family tree. She etill retains her pride In her family and when asked about It, saysi "I have It all written out In my trunk" and she baa one In plain sight, ' although you cannot see what Is -la It-Vbut you can see It bet ter on my arm, where It la written." - She rolls us her - sleeve, and there. tatooed on her arm. Is the deml-lion and ducal coronet of the Adams - family, when It lived- In France. Below la the shield with -the blood-red cross and five mullet or stars, which 'show the rank of the family, and below that the motto on a scroll, "Loyal an Ifort." She explains at length, In a low, sweet voice; .shedding now and then a tear, that the family name was first Adam. and" that they were adherents of - the Duke of Burgundy; that, as Huguenots, they were driven to England. - where later the "s" was added to the name, and that In this generation of refugees m the - great-great-grandfather of John Qulncy Adams. In later yeara John Adams went to England and erect ed a monument to his ancestors. The descendants migrated to America.' Rob ert Adams settled In Virginia, John and Samuel In .Massachusetts. The two presidents were from the John branch, and Mrs. Stanley Is from the Samuel branch. ' In Quinoy, Massachusetts. there are lot of. Adamses living, but none of them help this relative of theirs.

Mrs. Btanley has many grievances to stale against the. world, but she speaks of them generously. She had property, she- says married a man who got away with it all and then left her to marry another woman without first .procuring a divorcer She dropped his name and resumed .the name of her former hus band, "for- that, one was not worthy .to have his name beside mlne she say a 'I don't want his name brought in and don't wish to make him any trouble. He has gone out of my life." ... Nine 'years ago, - when her financial conditions were becoming threatening, she brought her consumptive son to Colorado, where hi died. ' "He often comes to see me new," she says, "and-ad vises1-me in my work and tells me about, people X didn't know about? ii r. v ,.;..- r , Slnoe then her health has failed stead ily. She lute had 11 operations and the last: one, -performed free of charge be fore a class of medical students, left her head a little weak, as she readily confesses. The only sign Is an In clination to ramble slightly, and maybe the tattoo placed there for memory. .The operations nave taken all bar money and ahe has only what little she makes to depend on for a living. 'But I pay 10 Cents a month for ray funeral expenses, so that when I die I will be burled dedently at my own ex pense. The only thing I have a horror of Is the poorhouse and a funeral from the town." . - And eo she lives from- dsy to day, In one little room, cooking her meals on -a gas stove, -if she has anything; to cook, ana nnaing ner one pleasure in looking Into the future; In appearing before people at unexpected tlmee In spiritual form, and In reading the. letters that her -admirers send her. "And death haa lost all Its horrors for ms sines I found out my wonderful powers and was able to see Into the next world.. , Many - have eald that I haye only to put my foot over and I will be In' the next world,' , My people will not give me any help, and I have to etruggle along as best I can; but I think I can' live until the time comes for me to pass entirely over. I am, not afraid, for too often have X eaught glimpses of the beyond when I have been under the anaesthetic and I havs heard, the angele singing oh, so sweet ly.
