Screenland (May–Oct 1927)

burnished copper, the folds of a soft coral negligee, clinging and trailing around her. It is the costume she is wearing in a scene for "What Every Girl Should Know". The gown is just a fascinating froth of lace and chiffon. The heels on the gold slippers absurdely high. But so very French! So irresistably frivolous and feminine. Again the Lamp is rubbed. And from out those apple-green silk curtains, so like the magician's high silk hat, appears a delightful "tea for two", with everything com' plete — china — silver — linen! "I love to keep house — in miniature," says Patsy as you feast "upon strawberries, sugar and cream" deliciously dainty sandwiches and luscious little pastries. And in this miniature house of hers you see an outline sketch or two upon the wall, a bowl of flowers, a case of books full to overflowing. All kinds of books from Balzac to Anita Loos, for Pat is never without a book. From then comes her greatest enjoyment— books and music. "And when I read or hear something that specially appeals to me, I want everybody else to see it just as I do. I don't know how many different copies of favorite books I have farmed out among my friends and acquaintances." "In fact," she laughs, "I conduct a regular circulating library." In one of Wilde's "Fairy Tales," wherein he depicts human traits so clearly and delicately teaches such a beautiful philosophy of life, there are a group of people, who, when they were glad, bought a caged bird and set it free to make their joy the greater. And you feel something of this in Pat, that she enjoys a thing the more when she has made someone else enjoy it too. And when "a fella needs a friend" Pat is right there. She has an impulsive sympathy that would bring home to dinner, all those whom she meets . . . that seem "lonesome and strange and far from their own fire-side. But the best of parents have a way of objecting, and the best natured cooks of leaving, so to keep peace Pat has to somewhat curb her impulses. With tea even "tea" one talks of many things. "Of shoe and ships and sealing wax, and cabbages and kings". And you find yourself liking Pat more and more. A good sport, she takes things as they come — for better or worse. Temper she has, when it is needed, but there are no fits of wild temperament. "Oh! I used to have them," she tells you. "I had a terrible temper. But I made myself get over it. "There was one grand climax when I was about twelve. "We went away for the holidays, and a governess was taken .along to chaperon me. To my way of thinking, I was far too grown-up and important to have anyone tagging along and telling me what to do. So after a few attempts on her part to display authority, I couldn't stand it any longer. I was furious, and I went after her with the hairbrush. "I wore myself out and the next day she departed with all sorts of threats, and several black and blue marks to remember me by. Of course I was relegated to bread and water, and that, from the mantel-piece. I wasn't a bit sorry though, for what I'd done. "But I began to do some deep thinking on the subject after that. And I decided that such outbursts hurt me more than anyone else, and didn't do any special good anyway." SCREENLAND ASTOUNDING ~ YES! Wherever This Man Goes Seeming Miracles Occur Miracles — NO. But what is this astounding power that is so driving, so all-embracing, so all-conquering, and yet so simple, so easily understood that any man or woman can work wonders with it?

Smith, of Somerville, Mass., writes him. Another says, "I was making no money, my health was bad and I was heavily in debt. Now I have a stoie of my own and am doing a good business. My family and myself enjoy the best of health." A man who learned of this power in Pittsburg — he had never earned more than $25 per week — stepped out the first month and made over $1,000. Another: "I was always told that I had no memory. I have never been able to memorize a piano composition to play it all the way through. Through Dr. Bush I started to work on my memory, Partial List of Contents Psycho — Analysis and the Subconscious. How to Have Amazing Memory.
