CUI BONO ? '(FOX WHOSE! ADVANTAGE? TO WHAT END 7) THERE IS SOMETHING IN IT. My Dear 'People. - Sir Arthur Conan Doyle has no medlumlstie powers, l>ut employs those In the trade when required, as lie is not keen to lose 100 inu<-h flesh, as It would interfere with his good commercial work. The me'linmistlc trade, knowing this and his susceptlDllities, cater for his requirements purely on commercial lines, for sentiment or lialr-stlfTeners, as the case may tie. Does It not occur to you: Why should there lie this tied house monopoly in communicating with "spirits"? Though Sir Arthur stated .he never met ani evil one, yet he was severe with Hie. people not taking him seriously. Do they not come under this category? With wireless telegraphy the mechanism is Ileshly. i.e.. manufactured by man, and no monopoly ■beyond a royalty, and absolute fw ts transmitted. 'Sir Arthur has chosen n very opportune time for these Imaginary manifestations, and i.s apparently working on susceptibilities. No doubt there will be some flesh lost tills week, hut there is one consolation: You will have no difficulty In gettlnj; in touch with V., Auckland (without medium*, alias agents), to ask him to stand by with the needful 'Muscle and Courage-Raiser Flour aud Standard products to restore flesh if vapourised.
