VELMA'S MEMOIRS.
Secrets of great men and tragic women; prophecies of history making övénta and intimate pen pictures of auch figures as the ex-Xaisor, the Into Taar of Russin, Lord Carnarvon, Mrs. Cornwallia West, and De Valera, and a delightful little aketch of our own Duchess of York, provide the foundation for the Intent book of ̧ ̈ momoirs, ⠀ ⠀ “My Mysterics and My Story: & Book on Palmistry" by Velma (John Long b. new,
Whatever one's views on the sub-
jeet of palmistry, crystal gazing, and the like, the greatest coptic must find good reading in this book Leave out all the palmistry and the pictures seen in the crystal if you will, and thero is still loft a tale worth the telling
One thing in particular sooms to emerge from this book and that is that the greater the man, the greater his mysticiam, superstition. or gullibility as you will.
The Ex-Kaiser's Anger.
It was in 1908, while walking in the Binck Forest, that Velma came face to face with the ex-Kaiser. After mutual recognition. the "All Highest" informed the seer. that yoara ago Kypsy had told his august ancestor that greatness would be heaped upon greatness for his family for decules to rome until there would arise an Emperor who would mount his horso upon the wrong side and would bring about the ruin of his.

In 1904 Velma was commanded to read the hand of the Tear. This monarch complained that palmists who read his hand all told a different inle, but all worn flattering. Gaining the permission of the Tsar to tell the truth and nothing but the truth, Velma took his hands. "Nover shali forgot dono handa As I noted the curious complex character they revealed, I was profoundly thankful that I had permission to speak the truth, and I felt there might be some good reason why my predecessors had taken refuge in flattery-especia ly if they had to live under his authority.

Velma foretold the fato of Lord Car narvon, and warned him againnt risking the ire of the dead kings of Egypt When the body of Tutankha- men was rovented a mark was found on his face. The mark left by the fatal mosquito bite on the face ot Lord Carnarvon was in exactly the same position.
Lord Carnarvon's premonitions, of ovil, Velna's prognostication of pecult influencos at work through the centuries, and much more in the same train, provide entertaining! reading for the sceptics, and provide food for thought for the studcuts of the mystir.

A Zealot.
Benighted during the troublous times in Ireland, arrosted by the LR.A. and held prisoner in a lonely cottage, Velma met De Valera. "A slight figure in a heavy, military coat, a determined expression, thin | tightly-shub lips......his cyon glowed staong, hard, aud fanatical" Hearing who the prisoner was he "shol a bony hand across to where I was and 1 Baw that this man was 12 zealot first and foremost, a man of the stuff of which martyrs are made."
