The nebular hypothesis which most
scientists now accept, teaches that all
matter composing all the heavenly
bodies, suns, planets and satellites,
once existed in an exceedingly diff
fused state, rarer than any gas with
which We are acquainted, and there

ole universe came out of the invisible.

and possibilities. Recent discoveries
and inventions give us a hint OF the
marvellous power and possibilities of
the unseen. In 1874, within the rec
objection of some who are here, the
first wire was strung on poles from
WASHINGTON to Baltimore, and on
May 2&rd of that year, the historic

ception of the possibilities of this un-
seen and mysterious power called
electricity. Had the prediction then
been made that such messages could
be flashed 10 great distances with
out any visible medium whatever,
they would have been incredulous.
Many would have pronounced II I'M
possible. Had it been predicted that
the sound Of the human voice with
all its mtonations and infections
could be transmitted by wire, it
would have been received with ques-
tion. But We question no longer. We
have ceased 10 wonder at this
achievement. We talk with friends

messages long distances without

Nikola Tesla, one OF our greatest
living electricians and inventors. by
recent investigations and by the aid
of his latest inventions has demon
strated experimentally that the earth
is literally alive with electrical Vi
brations. In a recent book on science
and invention, he tells how, by OBJ
serving the effects of a distant storm
upon his instruments, he established
the fact of stationary waves, making
the whole globe conductor, proving
the practicablity of sending telegraph
messages to any distance without
wires and also to transmit the human
voice with all its modulatons 10 any
distance, and far more, to transmit
power in unlimited amounts TO any
part of the globe and almost without
loss He reaches the conclusion that
this planet with all its appalling I'M
mensitv is only as small metal ball
compared to the appalling wonders |
and powers of the invisible electrical
currents that play upon it and around |
it: and that. by virtue of this fact,
