LIFE AND HEREDlTY.
DR. AUGUSTA BROWN GIRARD GIVES
HER THIRD PARLOR TALK.

rs NOT THE CHILD SIMPLE EXPRESSION
OF THE PARENTS LEADING THOUGHTS
AND PHYSICAL CONDITION.
Dr. Augusta BrCwn-Girard gave yesterday at 3
o'clock her third lecture on the body, from psy
Geological standpoint, her subject for the day
being "Heredlty." She began with the statement:
Whenever and wherever we find life we find
heredty Every cell in the organism IL endowed
with "A certain kind OF life-mind. thought-that Is
transmitted through the parents TO the child.
And TO substantae her theory she argued as fol-
lows:
Science is constantly bringing forth new facts
and possibilities. We have been taught that when
one makes his advent into this mundane world
the die Is that shall govern his future poss-
bilites. but experience teaches US otherwise We
all know that there times when We accom-
plish in one hour than in days at another
time Yet one must admit that every being II
ugller than he has any business to be. for all ex-
isting prenatal states are stamped upon the on
spring Sometimes these imprints are mental
sometimes physical Condition well as blood
will tell.
why do the children OF the same parents differ
so widely, II not from temporary moods OF the
parents? II a wish. fear or JOY can make
Impressions the unborn. can II be that the
anguish. the misery. the state Of mind that takes
possession Of some mothers in unwecome mother
hood fail to impress a lifetime effect upon the
helpless unborn? II the moods. different condi-
tions OF mind. health. habits Of parents, made no
impression. the children OF the same parents would
be identlcay the same.
1T is a well-known fact that the children Of
nervous parents do develop epilepsy. intemperance
and debility in various forms for generations
Patti is a good example Of the brighter side OF
heredity. On February is, 1873 her mother sang in
