KENYON, PRINTER. DES MOINES. DIRECTIONS. The person who is to reveal the future to some enquir- ing mind, should use thirteen cards in connection with this book, bearing respectively the numbers from one to thirteen. The one who wishes to know his future, should have in mind some loved one. He then draws one of the thirteen cards. The number being obtained, it is handed to the revealer of his destiny, who finds opposite this number, under the list of "The Gods," the god who will answer the question asked. For example, if you were seeking for an answer to question III.— "Does He Love," and should draw the card bearing the number 9, the god presiding would be Cupid, and the answer given by him would be : "I have loved you night and day For many weary months." Proceed in this way with each question, always return- ing the card just used to the remaining twelve, which must be thoroughly mixed before drawing again. It will be much more impressive and effective if done in a darkened room, for in the silence and the shadow the future is more fully revealed in all its mystic charms. The Authors. I QUESTIONS. I.
