gent forces that exist outside of what we
know as human bodies
Such experiments brought DIR. Funk in
contact with DR.. Hyslop and a close
friendship grew between them. Their ar
rangement for the test of spirit commu-
nication is said to have been suggested
by similar compact between DR.. Hyslop
and the noted psychologist. Prof. William
James Of Harvard, who died year before
last.
1t is rumored that DIR. Hyslop believes
that he has already received communica-
lions from Prof. James, and that he is
preparing to publish them in the Journal
OF the American Society for Psychicai
Research, Of which he is the founder and
active head.
Prof. James was the discoverer of Mrs.
Leonore E. Piper, the famous Boston
medium. 1t was twenty years ago that
he found out the peculiar powers of this
remarkable woman. who has since been
tested by the trained psychic researchers
Of two continents, and who lately sur

Massachusetts, gets the same number Of
irrigation bulletins as does the senator
from Idaho. The representative from the
East Side in New York gets his quota
bulletins as does the man from Iowa or
Texas.
Having these publications dumped upon
him 1t has long been the system Of the
congressman to frank them out to his
constituents. Although there may be no
interested in the subject in hand, the re-
ceipt of a book reminds the constituent
that the congressman remembers him.
OF course, II the book has cost the gov
eminent 81 to produce and 30 cents to
carry Though the mail, 1t is rather an
expensive postal card remembrance. Yet
this has been the method of Congress for
many decades and is still the practice.
Congress itself says SO through the joint
commission it has appointed to investi-
gate itself.
This distribution Of documents on the
part of the members of Congress costs
the government about $500 a year. for
each member. or an aggregate Of about
million and quarter dollars. 1t Is
probable that not more than 10 per cent
of this material serves any purpose what
ever.
The joint commission has a scheme for
fixing all this which it offers to Congress
in the form of bill. Through this bill
it hopes not merely to do away with the
superfuous matter that is provided for
members of Congress-, but to give to them
all they want of documents that are par
ticularly interesting to their constituents.
1t proposes to place to the credit of each
senator $500 year, and to the credit
of each representative 81 500, and these
members may draw whatever publications
they wish from the government printer
and have them charged up to their indi-
vidual allotments. In this way the man

drew the picture of a fish, 1t is said the
hypn0tized ones at Lyons pronounced the
word fish," while when he raised his
arm toward the ceiling they exclaimed,

1t is also related that when Dr. Funk
was compiling his dictionary he wished
to use a drawing of the widows
mite" an ancient coin worth hundreds of
dollars. A specimen was found in the
possession of friend of Henry Ward
Beecher, who arranged that DIR. Funk
might borrow 1t.
Then Beecher died, and time passed
without the doctors thinking more about
the matter until some time ago, when he
was investigating q spiritualist medium
who announced q communication from
the departed divine The spirit Of Beech

minded DR.. Funk that the widows mite"
had never been returned. and directed
him to seek 1T in the latter's Office safe
under a stack of old papers. DR.. Funk
searched as directed. and, he alleged,
found the coin just where the supposed
spirit said 1t would be, but where no one
not even the cashier, had suspected that
it had SO long reposed. These and other
alleged experiences brought the learned
photographer to the conclusion that there
are whole classes Of phenomena which
point clearly to the operation Of 1ntelli-
