Matter and Mind.-How Ideals and Char
acter Are Formed-Thought Waves
From Million Brains.
(By w. C. Cope.)

(By w. C. Cope.)
"What is mind ?-No matter!" What
is matter ?-Never mind" was the old
metaphysical bubble we boys used to de-
light in at college. 1t was definition that
was pleasing alike to the Idealist and the
Materialist in its ambiguity.
Since Bishop Berkeley in the 18th cen
fury "destroyed this world in two volumes
octave" as Sidney Smith puts it, the doc
trine of Idealism has had numerous advo-
Gates. This doctrine, the largest number
of its adherents today being the Christian
Scientists, is that we are concerned only
with ideas and are ignorant of everything
else Idealists argue that what our senses
convey to us is not evidence of an exter-
nal world, but only of our sensation. Fur
ther, we are utterly ignorant and must
ever remain so of matter itself, and that
it is easier to conceive that God directly
causes our sensations than that they are
conceived to us through the unknown
world Of matter.
Materialists aver on the other hand that
little as we know about matter in its es-
sences, we are conscious of its existence
ana LnaI we CANNOT 90 DUCK VI coHSclouo-
ness Our eyes, it is true, are only sensi-
tive mirrors connected with nerves, which
convey the impressions received by the
eyes of the brain, the same being true OF
all the organs of sensation. But when the
five senses all agree in conveying to con-
seriousness a coordinate impression, the
evidence is about as complete as anything
can be. Take pot of coffee, for example:
The eyes see it, the nose smells it, the ear
hears it boiling, the hand touches it, and
the tongue tastes it. IF this is not suffic-
lent evidence, we can call in any number
Of persons and their consciousness will
give the same report. So the Materialist
claims that the fact of the material exist
ence of the pot of coffee is certain. And as
a further step in the same direction, he
claims that we really know nothing outside
of matter and force, the latter being ex-
erted only by matter Thus, thought is
force exerted by the brain and has the
power to influence other brains in proper
ton to its strength and the resistance Of
fered by the other brains. And if thought
finds its analogy in electric force, the
subtlety of which it so closely resembles,
the brain is a material body that hasmany
of the qualities of the electric battery,
though possessing many other qualities

which no artificial electric battery pos
sesses.
As Materialist, / believe that human
beings are the sum-total of their heredity
plus their environment. Heredity explains
those family traits which Theosophsts ac-
cept as proving reincarnation, while en-
vironment accounts for the differentiation
of the individual from any of his ances-
tors. 81 am a part of all that 1 have
met" Tennyson says. The thought waves
sent out by million brains acting upon
the natural bent received through hered-
ity form the ideals and the character of
each human being. There is no such thing
as freedom of the will in that large sense
in which most new thought advocates ac-
cept it, and yet 1 think there is no real
antagonism between Materialism and new
thought.
To explain my position, let me quote
from Thomas Hobbies, who was the great
est metaphysician of his time, and whose
language Macaulay characterizes as more
luminous and precise than has ever been
employed by any other metaphysical wri-
ter:
"The question is not whether man is a
free agent, that is to say, whether he can
write or forbear; speak or be silent, ac-
cording to his will; but whether the will to
write or will to forbear come upon him ac-
cording to his will, or according to any
thing else in his own power. | acknowledge
this liberty that I can do if I will but to
say / can will if I WILL take to be an alb
surd speech 1t is true that very few have
learned from their teachers that man is
not free to will; nor do they find it much
in books. What they find in books, that
which the poets chant in the theaters, and
the shepherds on the mountains, that which
the pastors teach in the churches, and the
doctors in the universities, and that which
the common people in the markets and all
mankind in the whole world do assent unto,
is the same that l assent unto-namely,
that man hath freedom to do if he will;
but whether he hath freedom to will is a
question it seems they have never thought
upon. A wooden top that is dashed by the
boys and runs about sometimes to one
WALL sometimes to another, sometimes
spinning, sometimes hitting men on the
shins, if it were sensible of its own motion,
would think it proceeded from its own
will, unless it felt what dashed it. And is
man any wiser when he runs to one place
for benefce, to another for bargain,
and troubles the world with writing errors
and requiring answers because he thinks
he does it without other cause than his
