TnE MIND Is THE MAN-Thc mind
is the man. The body Is simply the
instrument through which the mind
manifests itself while on earth. The
mind is manifested through forty or
more organs Each is primary and
independent in ITS function, doing its
own work and not doing the work Of
any other. Each of these powers is
manifested by or through particular
organ or portion of the brain. The
power of each organ, all other things
being equal, is in exact proportion to
the size and quality OF that portion OF
the BRAIN through which il is mani
tested. The mental powers are pos
scssed originally in different degrees
by different individuals, and also by
thc same individual. One possesses
ten talents, another five, another one.
Each mental power grows stronger
and becomes more skilful by proper
exercise. Our accountability is Just
in proportion as we make q good or a
bad use OF these talents. Each men
tai power was created for the purpose
Of doing good. and was intended to be
properly used.

Each colony from its infancy regulated

more efficiently than Federal bayonels
We will not be led by our repugnance

not expect Congress TO cure it, or TO

this Utah bill has the vice of most of

who practice bigamy, concubinage
