MENTAL' MAffi
Jap Writes With Both Hands
j Jalks and Doqs' Other
Things at Same Time
ONLY TWO OTHERS LIKE HIM
H Can Think and Do a Number cf
Diverse Things Simultaneously
Was Anything but Phenome-
non as a Boy.
London. An amazing person Is
Tnineo K.ijlyiima the Japanese men-
tul marvel who lias been appearing
t the London Coliseum. Most of us
lu.ve been taught that no one can io
more than one tiling at a time. Kaji-
viima 1s a (striking instance to the
contrary a writer in the continental
dltim of the London Mail says. He
(It-lies all copyhook maxims nbout con-
leiitrution on the one matter In hand
iml no mor. Lie can think ami do
ii number of totally diverse things si-
multaneously. Wliile under a lire of
questions he reads a paper and writes
liarkward on a screen with enormous
rapidity ot the news of the evening.
And all 1 lie time part of his mind is
husy solving arithmetical problems
M't Idni by I lie. audience Involving the
fxtri;ctln of cube roots of various
numbers lie writes with equal facil-
ity with either hand or with both
bands backward forward or upside
down different .sentences at the same
moment that he is talking about some-
thing else.
Hts asks his audience for five names
or seven letters. They shout them at
Mm: Itamboda I'ortsea llolmrts.
Eleanor Mr. uric. In a Hash lie writes
backward a Jumbled mass of charac-
ters containing all the !!f letters.
These resolve themselves iu precise
progression Into the live names
chosen.
I have only known of two cases lu
uny way parallel to It.
Only Two Others Like Him.
One was a Calm station master In
India Who would send off telegraph
messages with his foot while he was
taking down another message with his
typewriter and at the same time talk-
ing about other matters.
The other case was that of the late
Rev. Slalnton Mows founder and
first president of the London Spirittir.l-
nalistic "alliance. I have seen him
writing different messages with both
bands while he was talking to me. In
his case he ascribed tiie faculty to
supernatural agency and believed his
hands to be controlled by spirits.
If Kcjiyama whose powers are far
In advance of these two claimed su-
pernatural assistance many people
would believe Mm. He might have
been burned at the stake In another
nge but now assuredly he would be
feted by spiritualists.
But he makes no claims of the kind
nor does he think that he possesses any
faculties that might not be acquired
by anyone else wlio takes the trouble
to cultivate them.
Thirty-six years old with a quiet
unassuming almost deprecatory man-
ner pleasant dreamy voice aud weird
eyes all the mystery of the East Is
concentrated In his subtle . counte-
nance. He speaks slowly' melodious
ly end softly. You might imagine him
a lotus eater and never guess that
beneath the calm exterior a quick aud
nglle brain Is working at a speed and
In a manner that to the ordinary man
seems little short of miraculous.
Was No Boy Prodigy.
He is a teetotaler and nonsmoker
tind Is married to an Englishwoman.
As a boy he will tell you he was
anything but a phenomenon. At ten
he could not do the simplest sums In
l.rithinetic. He bad a stern father
who used to mete mit punishment just-
ly and unmercifully.
They Icive a pretty little method in
Japan. It consists of putting little
bits of burning flax down the neck.
Kajiyama had frequent experiences
it this torture and bears the marks
:n Ids' body. Hut the strict discipline
of his early youth brought out his
qualities. Ambition awoke and with
It a passion for knowledge and long-
ing to do something a little better
than bis fellows.
.Mental concentration is an exercise
much prized in the Last aud Kaji-
i'auiii learned to concentrate. It was
u slow process. A lit Lie more every j
Jay. something fresh every day. Now
he can command at will the capacities i
jf his brain switch off or on I lie va- j
rlons currents of thought and make
each cell of the gray matter perform" i
Its desired functions. He Is master of
tils mind.
Kajiyama has n theory that there
ire all sorts of unexplored possiblll-
lies lying dormant in the brain lie
'Iocs not think he Iirs come to any-
thing like the limit of his capacities.
He is always experimenting. He Is
willing without charge to explain
bis views on mental efficiency and
concentration to schools or to eduea-
liotial authorities.
Robins Eat Too Many Worms.
South Xorwalk Conn. Robins in
Norwalk have the gout so Thbmas F.
Walsh the dog warden and well
known local naturalist says. The birds
have been noticed to he favoring one
or the other of their legs when alight-
ing on the ground or on the linb of a
tree. Examination showed that the
gout was due to high living. A super-
abundance of w.irius brought to the
turfaee of the ground by recent rnlim
have caused ti.e robins to gorge tlieui-
bilvcs '.ho uaturfcilst says.
RIOT OF COLOR TAKES PLACE
ON TINSEL FOR WINTER WEAR
By "M'AItJOHIK"
Whither away with all the trillion
yardH of tinsel metallic 'thread.-!
beads appliques stencils and gaw-
gaws of every sort that have 'hoi n
flaunted tipon Milady's suit and coat
these pant few months It Is a curi-
ous fact that from the day when the
first New York store enumerated
how many slumping days there wen
before Christmas suits and coats
seemed suddenly simplified. The cm'-
mis are wondering if there was not
enough tinsel for both old Daiiic
Fashion and the Yule-tide trees.
Whatever the cause the fact !-:
very evident that the better shops
are now showing garments' almost
entirely free from the burden of
superfluous trimming that has been
in evidence since the opening of the
fall season. Fifth Avenue shops are
showing suits very chic 1" line and
very simple. Really good furs are
used for choker collars and an oc
casional motif embroidered or bead
ed may lurk on collar or cuff. But
the ornateness and garishness that
characterized everything only a fe.v
weks ago Is rapidly disappearing.
Kven so the shops look no less
like an Arabian Nights .(bazaar fur
there is enough gorgeousness of i.'.l-
oring and fabric to atone for the
lesser quantity of t insel. Sol't-pilt d
fabrics such us reldyne duvet te
laine peachbloom and velvet nr
much in evidence and there are won-
derful new shades of copper wistaria
blues and greens. These gayer
shades are used m.tinly in dressy
afternoon or evening suits but the
street and business suits exploit
quiet shades of taupe and brown
blue and gray.
Albeit that suits and coats hae
been trained Into the way that they
should go the many "oilier things."

j siderable "toning down." liven lin-
gerie becoming garishly giddy and
is allowing Its true colors of hei.tio
greens blues violets and rose. The
most up-to-snulf lingerie is of bla. k
luce or net garnished with metallic
I or silk flowers. This vogue Is found
from corsets to lounging robes. All
I the liectlc Oriental coloring seeni i
j to have betaken itself to negligee:;.
Fashion permits every woman to !
a vamplsh "Serpent of the Nile" in
the' privacy of her own boudoir. The
favored robes are of dark-lined 'bro-
caded satins encrusted with sten-
ciled flowers of garish hue. Black
brocades embroidered in huge gold
roses of lotus lilies ure very 11 faut.
Trinkets of hammered bronze or
copper dingle from girdle a;id
sleeves. Opulence gledms in everv
fold of these new boudoir robes. Vel-
vet batiks cut a la Mandarin coma
in rich hues of rose and purpK
green or orange. Jeweled girdles of
roughly cut stones are found oi
others. Bands of preceless ermine or
minsk garnish others and even the
most ordinary negligee are dressed
up with trimmings of colored brtiKiv
ed wool for rich bandings.
The trouser cut is found in many
of the negliges. One of the most
striking' seen upon the avenue used
black satin brocade for the bloomer
part and gold lace for the overskirt.
Flowers fashioned from heads and
wool were dotted over the trans-
parent lace. Some of the models
make no pretence of being sanscu-
lotte. The pnjamu lounging robe fs
featured heavily by the retailers. It
comes in the same gorgeous colors
and rich fabrics as do the bona fide
robes.

Rijht from the start Spurs let you know what you're smok-
ing. Plain as day on the back of the'package k says: "In Spur
Cigarettes the good' tobaccos from the Orient are properly mixed
with Burlcy and other home-grown tobaccos." '
lu your language that 'means" "good old-time tobacco ta.ste."
Haven't you just about been hankering for it?'
Those good tobaccos are rolled in satiny imported paper and
crimped not pasted. That's something to know too. Jn smoker's
talk crimping means "easier drawing slower burning- k- e-r
taste." Examine a Spur and see 'h-j-w it's made.
