Apparently en s Shoes there are few secrets withheld from him, as he asks no questions, but seems to work like a human radio receiving set. As thoughts flash through one's brain,,, they are readily picked up by his, and the results are astounding. If you have not witnes- sed his work you have missed some- thing. If you have already seen him you will doubtlessly 'wish to see him again. If you desire to consult him re- garding missing friends, or diagnose some trouble or illness, he is at your service. Sceptics are especially invited by Mern-o-rea, who offers at each and eery demonstration, a reward of v i00 to any person who will prove that he has any accomplices in his work.
