    Right to be scared
    (cont. from page 1)
    ps5.gif Aelfie remains unaware that his nemesis, Dr. Louis Blayze, a much more unscrupulous physician, who has had strange dealings with Edmund, has finally caught up with him and is leaving calling cards around.
    ps5.gif Why is the elusive Dr. Blayze trying to impersonate Aelfie?
    ps5.gif Is he responsible for the failed physician's bouts of amnesia?
    ps5.gif Next our clueless hero found brief refuge in Wyvern Tower, where he began to understand that his presence in Drakesheath is not incidental.
    ps5.gif At first it seemed to him that a relentless force dragged him here, but now he feels there may be TWO forces pulling him in opposite directions!
    ps5.gif While he and Miss Artemis Maximus were trying to escape the Adversary, they were chased by creepy Watchers. ps5.gif He was thrown out yet again and now wanders the countryside worrying about Artie's fate and generally plagued by angst with the mysterious purple vial tucked inside his jacket.
    ps5.gif And he has every right to be scared because we know the truth!

    Paris Exhibition
    (cont. from page 1)
    ps5.gif Londoners, who have enjoyed the use of an underground transportation system for several decades, can join together to wish their Parisian neighbours ‘bonne chance’.
    ps5.gif Over 83,000 exhibitors are expected to take part in celebrating the theme: ‘A Century in Retrospect’.
    ps5.gif As may be expected, much attention is being paid to the many scientific advances that have been made and the Palais de l’Electricite, a magnificent structure crowned by stars and illuminated by electricity, acts as Science’s Holy Temple.
    ps5.gif Even the Universe has found a place. In front of the Eiffel Tower stand three spheres, roughly 50, 40, and 9 yards in diameter, one inside the other.
    ps5.gif The outer layer represents the universe, the middle layer the stellar system, and the inner layer the earth.
    ps5.gif By means of a spiral staircase, visitors will be able to climb to the ‘North Pole’ where they can bask in a glorious painted firmament that spins about them to the accompaniment of Saint-Saens’ inspirational organ music.

    ps5.gif Along with celebrating the scientific advances already made, the Exposition will also explore those to come.
    ps5.gif Trade cards show such futuristic considerations as flying buses, news by radio, and homes heated by radium.
    ps5.gif Aside from the exhibits, numerous speakers will be on hand, perhaps the most exciting of whom is the Russian scientist Mr. Constantin Perskyi who, will present his edifying lecture on a theoretical device he calls ‘television’ which, should his profound reasoning be correct, will astound us by transmitting both pictures and sound over the aether!
    ps5.gif Such wonders may never appear in real life, but surely this is all the more reason to visit Paris in the next few months: to witness dreams in the making.
