HIS
TELEPATHIC
WOOING
By JAMES BUCKHAM
( kr Short SUrr Puk Co.)
DOCTOR AMSDEN wa utterly
and hopelessly In love with
beautiful Miriam Foote. Hut,
' In spite of hi sit feet of Iplcn
dld manhood or, perhspi, because of
them the young doctor waa so timid
In the presence of the fair sex, and
purtlculurlyln the presence of the fas
cinating Miriam, that he could no more
bring himself to utter sylluble of
sentiment to that young woman than
be could walk up to the venerable and
dignified president of the Stat Medi
cal association and tweak hi nose I
The two thing seemed equally pre
posterous nd Impossible.
At this juncture of affair, curiously
enough, there fell Into the hand of
Doctor Amaden book that offered a
magical solution of the problem tbat
perplexed blm viz., how to mak lov
to the woman who hsd ensnared hi
heart, without being conscious of do
ing It, This book wss called "The Law
of I'sychlc rhenomena," and It cen
tral theory wa that the "subjective
mind," or soul, of any person, by a
process of autosuggestion, may enter
Into communication with the subjec
tive mind of another person, it any
dlitanc whatsoever. A condition of
sleep, either cstalrptle or nstural. Is
Induced by the agent In blniaelf; but
previously to falling to sleep he must
cunrentrsle bl whole mentsl energy
and will power upon the determlnstlon
to convey a certain Image, or message,
or both to the subjective mind of the
person with whom he wlshee to com
municate. Then away goe hi svlrtt
hi phantasm while be la buried In
unconsclou (lumber, tppear In hi
very Image to the person designated,
and deliver tb message with bis very
voice and manner. Truly, a marvel
ous theory, and of untold ilgnlnranc
to timid lover and baahful solicitor
of tvery kind.
According to thl theory, .Doctor
Amidon, In order to mak telepathic
love to Miriam Foote, need almply
drop to deep, on a certain night, with
a strong determlnstlon to send his
phantasm to tit young women with an
eloquent plea of affection. That was
all. It wa not even necesaary for blm
to furnish the general aubatance, In
troduction, or sny portion ef this glow
ing address. He need simply specify
that It ahould 1 pasalonate and rich
In verbal colorordering a proposal
much at be would a dinner; -t first
class hotel, with perfect confidence
tlist at the proper time It would be
served la proper form. To be sure,
thl method of wooing wit not In Uriel
accordance with the traditional eti
quette of inch affaire. It might even
be considered tbat thl proposal by
sort of phantasmal proxy waa hardly
fair to the object of the experiment A
ghost Is. after all, but a ghost, whether
It be attached to bodily tenement or
be almply a spirit at large, and even
the most heavenly minded young wom
an might cherish a prejudice In fsvor
of a fleshly lover. On tbe other hand,
however, the choice ley not between
two methods of wooing, but between
this and none at all; and how easy,
bow delightful a method of making a
propoaal of marriage. It could all be
performed. Ilk a painful aurglcal op
eration, during merciful sleep. Then
the lover when next he met the lady
In bla everyday person would know
by ber manner whether she had ac
cepted or rejected him. The more
Doctor Amsden considered this fssci
natlng project the more trivial seemed
hi scruple sgalnat It fulfillment
Indeed, h puked himself Judicially,
wi It not a fundamental doctrine of
mctaphyilc that only the. soul was
real, and ao-called matter waa almply
the shadow cast by the spirit T This
being the case, hi vulgarly .named
gboit wis In reality no ghost at all,
while hla bodily presence wa th real
phantasm.
Having arrived at thls comfortolile,
though to th lay mind" slightly i fr
it ruse, conclusion, Amnion wavered no
longer. "I will do It" he said, Jump
ing to hi feet "I will do It tonlghl
no no, a few dy must be given to
subduing the flesh and concentrating
the energlea of the luhjectiv mind.
On Saturday evening, at the time of
my regular weekly call, I will make an
end to till painful uncertainty,
Though 1 cannot but bop that alt
look upon my suit with favor, I ihall
never dure to broach the tubject Of
lov openly In the flesh. My ghost
or, at least, what 1 vulgarly known
a a ghost shall speak, and I will
abide by the result"
On hla return from dinner thnt eve
ning Doctor Amiden locked all the
door and darkened all the wludowa
of hi apartments. Then, after amok-
Ing medltatlv ctgnr, b went to bed.
It wa barelj eight o'clock In th eve
ning when bl bead touched th pil
low, but a b had planned to send hi
Imag to Mil Foote at precisely nine
o'clock, before that young lady should
havt retired to her chamber, he
wished to liiv ample time to get blm
self to sleep, besides, he wa really
tired and drowsy, which wa certainly
favorahl condition for hi experi
ment He had feared thnt h would
be excited and nervous ; but already
the suggestion of sleep which be had
been conatantly reiterating for the
past hour wni beginning to tell upon
hi brain. The formula, "I am about
to go to deep, I am becoming sleepy,
I sleep," wa having a mott magical
effect
Doctor Amsdeni. dropped Into th
misty chasm of slumber In lei than
fifteen minute after getting to bed.
Hut that fifteen minute had been
pent In strenuous command, on the
part of the objective mind, that the
subjective mind should go, st precisely
nine o'clock, to the borne of Mis
Foots, present itself In the exact and
correct Image of the lover, and mske
an ardent sppeul to the affection of
Hi ludy.
In shout two hour Amiden swtike,
bathed In perspiration, and feeling
thoroughly exhuusted. He wa not
conscious of having dreamed at all,
and yet It teemed to blm as If he had
Juit iliukrn off a most horrible night
mure. He rose fcom hit bed and con
sulted his watch. It wai Just ten
o'clock. "Thank heaven," he cried,
"I did not wuke before the timer He
went back to bed, and fell Instantly
Into the deep aluiuber of complete ex
haustion, from which he did not wake
until late the noxt morning.
For two dayt he did not aee Mli
Foote. Then he summoned up four- f
age to call upon her. She came do..n
atalrs looking pule and anxious, snd
the moment that Amsden'i eye fell
upon ber bl heart began to throb with
(uffoeitlng violence. Undoubtedly bl
experiment had lucceedod far ss
tb proposal wa concerned but
should hi attitude be that nf the
repted or rejected lover?
Hardly noticing bla t nmerlng ex
pressions of solicitude for her altered
loojis, Miriam led the way. lulo the
drawing room, and, motioning blm to
a chair, tested herself In a dim comer
at the other side of tbe room. Then,
wltli ber blue eye lowered and ber So
ger twisting nervously, sh said:
"Doctor Anuderc I owe you in
apology. When you Called two night
go and (iked me to be your wife I
wi too much agitated to anawer you.
To tell the truth," aba continued, red
dening a little, "the eloquence of your
words, their poetry and melody, so
surprised snd overcame me that I
could not anawer ae you deserved. .
Wben I left you and walked to the
ft her aide of the room It was only that
might gain possession of myself, and
when I looked up and found you
gone"
"Gone!" exclaimed Amaden, groan-
log audibly.
'Tea, gone like a spirit (here-Mis
Foot paused, while Amaden clutched
at hi chair, feeling aa though bl
whole body were tarulng to innd and
dribbling down upon tb floor) with
out a word of good by, I feared that
I had mortally offended you and that
you would oever come back to"
"Then you were not angry becauae
my ghost becauae I left like ghost?
Yon winted me to come bickt But
whyl"
"I I think you ought to know," laid
tb girl, blushing.
And the next moment Doctor Am
den waa kneeling at ber feet
"I did It In a dream no, I don't
mean that I mean thl la a dream.
I ought to explain."
"No, don't try. I understand," laid
Miriam softly.
The girl heed sank forward on bl
shoulder. Sh waa crying little, but
he tuffered ber lover arm to illp
around her wabrt. and Into hit trem
bling hand ahe preaaed ber own.
It wai dnijc, th Impossible, the In
conrelviblet And even Amiden felt
In hi heaving heart that be bad never
don anything ao eaay and ao utterly
delightful In bla whole life.
It wst true thst Mlrlsra did not un
derstand, but Amsden felt that at such
a Juncture any explanations would be
not merely out of place, but even In
delicate, To hit credit be It aatd, however,
tbat on on occaalon before bl mar

Whereupon Amsden wa obliged to

that It was hi best lelf that had

And build your castle all a gleam.
For, after all, It' all a dream.
Yet, for th merry ,nd th bold, th

One day I found a pot of gold awaiting
at the rainbow' end.
When I might dream a thing or two,
Yes, almost snythlng come true,
When one so poor wai rich again,
What think you tbat I dreamed of then!
With alt thing unattainable, I used to

But now. It' rather si range to tell, I

When anything I well might own
I do not dream of wall of (tone,
For now I want a roof of thatch,
A humble home, end friends to match.
