SURE WONDERFUL DISCOVERY

HTOuBn lHCOi DOidtiOh VI o. so-
ciety Ito place before the world
the discoveries of DIR. H .Littlefield in
biology, psychology and metaphys-
ics," it became known to-day that
Littlefleld, who maintains Offices in
the Central Building. declares he
has found the process of creating
life artificially.
DR.. Littlefeld has made Seattle
his home for two years. He has
been experimenting in the creation
of life since he obtained his degree
from the Kansas Homeopathic Med
ical College in 1886.
In his experiments, he says, he
has created a minute, but new, in
sect, which, multiplied in size l.
200 times under the microscope, ap-
pears as an octopus-like organism.
Life-what is it?
What makes it? What is it's or
igin? What is its source?
The scientists of all periods have
tried to find the answer-Huxley,
Tyndall, Haeckel, Darwin and the
rest. Now Littlefield says he has
solved the problem. He knows the
mystery of life.
Darwin declared that life can
only be generated from antecedent
life. That is. only the living pro-
duce living things-vegetable or
animal
But DR.. Littlefield upsets this
theory. His discoveries are that
life can result from the grouping of
inorganic matter, inanimate OBJ
jects, lifeless substances. So far his
experiments have reached only the
very beginning of the possibilities
he is hoping for.
Twelve elements enter into the
composition OF all organized beings,
without exception" said DR.. Little
field to-day. These are the phos-
pilates of sodium, lime, potash,
magnesia, iron; the sulphates of So
dunn, potash. lime; the chlorides of
sodium and potash; and silicon and
calcium. Says DR.. Littlefeld.
Get the proper proportion of
each, and you can construct the
form of anything. By the various
groupings, modification of relation
and proportion, every species of
plant and animal is formed"
But even with the form con-
structed there would still be needed
that spark which makes life. The
life principle, as DR.. Littlefield
calls it, must be supplied.
The phenomena of creating life is
reduced, according to DR. .Littlefield,
to the proposition of saturating the
substance so constructed with the
vital magnetism" This magnet
ism permeates every form of mat
ter, says DR.. Littlefield. He proves
it in this manner:
Put drop of water on a micro
scope and any substance in it that
will float and not dissolve will
take on the phenomena of mag
netization-that is, of attraction
and repulsion among it's particles
during the process of evaporation.
By repeating this process a number
of times with the same particles of
matter, they will become completely
saturated with magnetic force.
This process of evaporation is
natures method of saturating mat
ter with vital magnetism"
1t was while conducting similar
experiments that DR.. Littlefield dis
covered he had created his new six
armed insect.
AS the object gyrated with COM
paratively high velocity. DR.. Little
field was confident he had created a
living thing. In similar manner
DR.. Littlefield found he could pro-
duce out of inorganic matter the
beginning of growth of lilies, and
other living cells. both in the AMI
NAL and floral life.
Carried out to its ultimate"
says DIR. Littlefield, science will be
able to create even human life."-
