Science Informs us that every
mental activity involves the produc-

There is a burning up OF the brain

Law Of Science Reveals
New and Wonderful
Truths.
ALL THINGS TANGIBLE
Waves From Human Mind
Just Like From Wire
less Instrument.
IN j. B. DICKINSoNl

The great law of science is slowly,
but surely, revealing many new and
novel things which our forefathers
would have looked upon with sus-
picion, II not with grave doubt.
Scientists tell us that thoughts are
not the airy. unreal things as we
have thought them. hut actual ana
real tangible things. They tell us
with much logis that thoughts are
forms of energy and power.
The 'thtngness" of thought is no
longer a riddle. Perfect pictures can

might ask: From whence docs this
quality Of the thingness' Of thoughts
arise ?' l have been asked. "Why
is thought a thing" MY reply is
simple, The mind is field from
which thoughts arise. and thoughts
are actual, substantial forms of

PROTEST AGAINST traffic.
AN-AMERICANS OPPOSED
TO SALE OF WAR MUNITIONS.
Proposed Open Letter to Wilson Re-
jcctcd as Too Drastic in Tone.

San Francisco, Aug. "A resolu-
ton protesting against traffic in war
materials between the United States
and enemies Of Germany was adopted
today by the National German-Amer-
lean alliance, in convention here, but
in doing so the delegates rejected a
proposed open letter to President
Wilson on the subject as improper
and too drastic in language. The reso-
luton carried a recommendation for
the enactment Of law forbidding
passenger traffic on ships TRANSPORTING
munitions Of war.
The resolution was drawn in the
name of the 100000 members of
the alliance as loyal American citi-
zens. History was pointed to as evil
dence of this loyalty in the past, with
the assurance that whatever events
the future might hold, it would not
find them less worthy Americans
However. as free citizens of this
republic, We maintain the right to ex-
press our opinion upon the policies of
our government" said the resolution.
therefore, in the present contro-
versy, we deem it our most solemn
duty to do all in our power to prevent
a breach between Germany and the
United States"
The resolution then pointed to the
American policy in Mexico and the
alleged permission in the case of Eng
land of virtual violations Of interna-
tional law and said:
Since America has declared for
neutrality, we demand that our gov
ernment. In dealing with foreign ma
tions, adopt the same standard ol
treatment"
The question Of prohibition, which
officers Of the alliance had predicted
would be taken up and some measure
In opposition to the movement ADOPT
ed, was not touched except in al
amendment to the constitution which
made it an obligation Of the alliance
to use it's influence for the bcttermcnt
Of conditions in liqGor traffic and the
modification ol It's evils.

alliance had collected $47S,1S0 for
