The following morning I awoke re-
freshed in mind and body. But my
strange malady—if malady it can be
called—persisted. Not only did the
emanation surrounding my wife seem
more clearly defined, but I noticed that
a similar apparition surrounded the
maid as she served the breakfast.

That evening I made u discovery.
The maid had, 1t appears. broken one
of my wife's choice vases while dust-
ing. Mrs. Stanton discovered the loss
and called the maid before her. The
girl denied the charge. But 'whilo she
kept a straight face and lied Iustily
her aura changed color,_ bright red
spots appearing over Its entire sur-
face.

I studied the phenomenon carefully,
figuring it out from every diiferpnt
angle.

Then suddenly the truth flushed over
me.

Through some strange frock of cir-
cumstance I had been given the power
to see into men's souls!

That which I took for on optical il-

lusion was, in truth." their consciences. '

turned to a milky white. A tiny false-
hood in'whlch I trapped her caused
the some red spots to uppeur that I
had noticed in the case of the maid.
An expression of love brought out a
rosy pink. ;

Spring arrived. I went out of the
house but little, spending my time in
studying those about me. pleading ill
health as the euro of my continued
absence from the office. Naturally
Burt was ~oolicitons. Yet so expert
