Guinness?
Hold the paper about a foot away
from your face.and gradually bring it
nearer and nearer: You'll find that the
hand' appears to approach and grasp
the glass of Guinness, (Another way
is-to ask a friend to have a Guinness.
See how quickly he grasps it.)
Yes, Guinness is the real thing. It
has all the

body' and strength you
need, yet the. taste has a welcome
invigoration that makes it quite 'un–
mistakable. And as a-natural tonic,
Guinness has no equal.
Grasp a Guinness yourself tonight.
Guinness is good for you.

But I no longer sought my child in it.
I looked now for her seducer. Mter
some fruitless efforts I succeeded.
"Seven years ago myoid teacher
died. He left me the box with the
crystal. And so, year by year, I
continued to follow the course of
this man's life. Onlyoriething I have
never learnt in all that time: who he
was-his name-and where he was.
"Then one day-not quite three
months
'ago-
I saw in the crystal
this picture: the man I hated stood
idly gazing towards me. Before him
was a row of ancient cannons, behind
him rose the walls of a building l.j.ke
a fortress: And now at last I knew
where to-look for him. He was in
London; standing in the shadow
of the Tower. There was no possi–
bility of mistake. A photograph of
the Tower used to hang in the
office of an English
firm
in

with whom I had done business. for
many years.
"I. cannot tell you what a fever of

moment.
If
it is tIile what our sages
teach us, namely, that powerful
emotions can often span great dis–
tances, tl;ten at that instant the force
of my hatred must have hit hard."
The old man had suddenly lost
all his self-control. He sprang to
his feet and brandished his -fists
against his invisible enemy.
Only after a long pause did he
end his story in an exhausted voice:
" Immediately upon my discovery
I sold all my possessions and drew
