"I'm a fortune teller you were born

had crent croesese got two bits about
you?" This was tbe usual preliminary
to "Dr." Robert Allen's method of tell
ing fortunes. Tbe "doctor" tells fates
by tbe stars, tbe lines in tbe bands and
tbe gullibility of tbe purse. He is an
extremely voluble gentleman, with a
conversational breatn and a flow of
speech that adapts itself to whomever
ha been unwise enough to submit to
tbe ordeal of fortune telling. "Dr.
Allen came in on a flatcar last week.
He liked the weather pretty well and
formed an unfortunate attachment for
the beverages that cheer today and
sadden tomorrow. The "doctor" never
allowed himself to become sad while
there was anyone io town with a past
resent or future. He also olaimed to
be a phrenolsgist of rare gifts, and those

Harpers Weekly
13 1897
With the end of 1896 HARPER'S WEEKLY
will hare lived forty years. In that time it has
participated with all the zeal and power at its
command in the great political events of the
most interesting and important period in the
history of the country, and it has spread before
its readers the accomplishments of science, arts,
an? letters for the instruction of the human
mind and the amelioration of human conditions
and of manners.
What the WEEKLY has been in its spirit and
purpose, as these have been manifested princi
pally ia its editorial pages, it will continue to
be.
It is impossible toannounce with precision all
that the WEEKLY will contain during the year
1897. It were as easy to announce what is about
to happen in the world, what triumphs for
gx government are to be won, what ad
vances of the people are to be made, what is
to be the outcome of the continuous stnis-trle be
tween the spirits of war and peace, what is to
happen in the far ast, what is to be the state
of .Europe twelve months hence, what hew
marvels of sciencb are to be revealed, or what
are to be the achievements of arts and let
ters, for the WEEKLY is to be a pictorial rec
ord of all this.
Cartoons will continue to be a feature.
Serial Stories, a New England story by
Miss Mart E- Wilkins, will begin in January.
A tale of a Greek uprising against the Turks, by
Mr. E. F. Benson, the author of "Dodo," will
follow. A sequel to "The House-Boat on the
Styx," by Mr. John Kendrick Banas, illus
ti ated by Mr. Peter Newell.
More Short Stories will appear in the
WEEKLY than it has been possible to publish
during 1S96.
Departments: Mr. W. D. Howell's "Life
and Letters" have been among the most charm
ing features ot periodical literature, Mr. E. S.
Martin, and others will contribute observa
tions on what is going on in "This Busy World;"
"Amateur Sport" will remain the most import
ant department of its kind in the country.
The w EEKLY will continue to present to its
readers the world's news most interesting to
Americans, to make important advances in
both the literary and artistic features, and to
retain for itself the leading place in the illus
trated journalism of the world.
