NEW DISCLOSURES.

Emanation Round the Human Body. I • London, January 16. New discoveries about the aura, or emanation which surrounds the human body, v.'ere discovered this week by the scientist who is carrying on the work of the late Dr Kilner, of St. Thomas’ Hospital, pioneer explorer of the aura. Kilner sensitised his eyes with dicyanin, which enabled him to observe with the naked eye the actual “waves” of the aura. A new si nsitiser has been discovered by the present investigator (V:tio refuses to allow his name to be published) which enables him to see ! waves of 300 millionths of a milli--1 metre, nearly a third shorter than I those visible to Kilner. This is the i I same wave-length as that of the | shortest rays that reach the earth ' from the sun. The investigator believes that he has actually seen the waves of thought. “I have been able to verify Kilner’s results and to discover an ultra outer aura —something quite distinct from the inner, outer and extra-outer auras described by Kilner,” he stated. Its significance is that it may be the emanation from the brain. “When I have fully established its existence and qualities,” he declared. ‘‘l shall have brought transmission of thought from a possibility to a scientific probability.”

Connors and Paul Company.

This big musical revue will be staged at the Stratford Town Hall next Saturday, February 13, and seats can be reserved now at Clark’s Music Shop. Reviewing this attraction, the Wellingtoh “Evening Post” says: A crowded house greeted the Connor sand Paul revue at the New Opera House last night, when “Calling All Stars" provided three hours of rousing merriment, with rich variety in the turns, which followed one another in rapid succession, sustaining the en-

tertainment throughout. George Wallace ,the inimitable comedian, proved that he has lost no whit of his popn- ' larity with Wellington, audiences, and - kept his public laughing heartily with his breezy gags and jokes. “Calling All Stars” has a quantity of new ■ sketches made famous by the subtlety j of the way in which they are put : over with a bang and a sudden black- ! out, Associated with him is a com- , pany that keeps the show going at a j pace that leaves no .cjull moment.

George Wallace was assisted in many of his sketches by Mike Connors, Will Miller, Leo Trenette, Jimmy Coates, Lalla Fanning, Laurel Streeter and Edna Hardy. Leo Trenette, a teiftir, sang “I Hear You Calling Me,” and Lulla Fanning sang "Edie was a Lady,” in an apache scene. Nellie Kolle became an instant favourite with her impersonation of a naval officer singing songs of the sea. Minnie Love achieved popularity quickly with clever burlesques of Maurice Chevalier, Garcie Fields and Will Fyfe. Rex and Bessie, in tap dances and Tyrolean dances by Delaney and Butt, were enthusiastically received, and there was warm applause for the novelty saxophone solos of Jimmy Coates. Mike Connors and Queenle Paul contributed catchy songs, and the Russell Brothers were effective in silhouette gymnastic turns.'The Sunkissed Ballet contributed much to the enjoyment of the evening. Cleverly conceived was a number, "dancing cheek by Cheek,” in which eac hgirl was frocked as a girl on one side and dressed as a man o lithe other, giving the impression that two figures provided the costume. The music was in the capable hands of a large orchestra

Industry,” is not seen in print or heard from the platform so frequently as it used to be, simply because local industry is encouraged and that to a most gratifying extent, in New Zealand to-day. Workshops and factories are springing up in the various centres of population, where goods in everyday demand are turned out equal to anything imported and in some instances a’ctually better! Tobacco is a case in point. Grown and manufactured within the Dominion, this indispensable commodity for quality is second to none. The raw material is produced under ideal conditions. Climate, soil, highly-skilled labour, and the most modern methods of manufacture combine to make the five brands, Cut Plug No. 10 (Bullshead), Cavendish, Navy Cut No. 3 (Bulldog), Riverhead Gold and Desert Gold, the perfect tobacco. One of its extraordinary merits is that it is toasted. That remarkable process (the manufacturers’ own) eliminates the nicotine in the leaf and renders the finished product practically harmless—something that cannot be said of even the finest imported.
