WHAT Is LIFE?
A Discovery by Prof. Gates
OF Washington, Which
Answers the
Question.
AN INTERESTING SUBJECT.

What Is iife?'' T1is question has
been asked during ali ages, but il has
never until now been successfully an
swersd- Professor Elmer Gates, OF Wash
ington, who has been making great ex-
periments with the microscope, has made
virtually. double microscope; in other
words, he brings the image Of the first
microscope on the lens. which picture on
the lens is enlarged by the second micro
scope so that many Things which it is i'm
possible 10 see with an ordinary micro
scope are revealed. In this way he is able
to see the smallest cells OF the body in an
exceedingly large form. He says: .'Cut
piece Of protoplasm into a number OF
pieces and each piece will still be alive. .
thus proving that TIE germs OF life exist
In even the minutest particle CT the
body.
But ne goes farther and says that he
believes mind is life, ana that mind is
present in every particle OF the body.
This IS new, startling, a wonderful
theory and ii may lead ID a revolution
on the subjects Of disease, health and Of
happiness. 1t explains clearly one thing
and thst is. why the mind is frequently
affected when the body is disordered.
and it brings home the question of
health or disease very forcibly.
1t becomes plain that in order to have
a clear head and strong mind. one
must nave body that IL in perfect con-
dition. When the body is dersnged the
mind cannot work rightly. With pains
down sensations and ali the symptoms
indicating a weakened condition of the
kidneys and urinary organs, there is GER
tain 10 be ciouding of the intellect
which calls for immediate action. This
action can only be successfully taken by
using some grest, modern discovery that
is certain to put the cell tissues In per-
feet shape. There is such a discovery
and 1t is doing more to counteract pain
and establish health than anything
known to modern times In speaking of

London, says: 'T emphaticaIly state
tnat have been able to give more relief

Warmers Safe Cure than by all the
medicines in the British penarmaco-
poeia." Doctor r. A. Gum, dean of thc
United States Medical College, says: 81

both acute and chronic Brights disease
and commend it most frankly"
Such statements should convince any
man or woman that there is no need Of
farther suffering, if prompt use is made
of the remedy that is commended SO
highly.

of five minute paper by Miss Emma

Miss Mclaughlin and Mr.. ]. n. Allen

Miss Kelly.
"The Contending Forces IN the Build
ing OF the Constitution, by Miss Dick
erson; THE Constitutional Convention"
Oy Miss keith. and Individual Impress
as Shown in the Constitution" by Miss
Wagner, were each well received. Glow
ing tributes were paid Washington, Mad
ison, Hamilton, Franklin, Norris and
others Gladstone has said: "As The
British constitution is the NEST subtle
organism which has proceeded from pro-
g-essive history, so the American con-
stitut:on is the most wonderful work
ever struck Off al a given time by the
brain and purpose Of man."
The last and crowning effort Of the
morning was by Mr. J. s. Carson on the
subject The Element Of Growth in the
Constitution. Mr. Carson IS a pro-
found student Of the political history not
only OF our own country, but ais the his
tory OF all the countries that have con-
tributed anything along the line Of ad-
vancemen-. He said that the three ele-
ments Of growth in the constitution were
religion, intelligence and Hberty-that
these elements had proved phenomenal;
that they had withstood many antagon-
istic forces. But the American consti-
tutfon," he said, ''is worth all that it
cost. It's most luxuriant growth was in
the troubled days from 81 to 50. Like
the cedars Of Lebanon that wrap their
roots around the mountain boulder, so
the constitution has left the paper docu-
ment on which it was first written and
growing in blood has wrapped its roots
around the bone and sinew OF the Amer
ican people. Liberty and Union have
grown into 'one and inseparable, now
and forever"
Those taking part In the general dis
cussions of the several topics were as
follows: Misses Anna Mason, Eva Phil
lips, Ella Taft, LYDIA Mills, Lizzie Dick
enson, Mrs. Moorehead, Messrs. J. n.
Allen. c. F. Adams. T. r. Dyer and r.
F. Knight.
After announcements and some gener-
al instructions from Superintendent Dy-
er, the meeting adjourned.

SCOTS Emulsion of Cod
