Limitations of soianas.

Johnny was sent to study mathemat-
les, and the teacher told him that it
was true science. -
For instance" she said, ''if it takes
one man twelve days to build a house,
then twelve men can build it in one
day.
Johnny replied: "And 2S8 men win
build it In an hour, 1890 in a minute
1036, 800 men will put it up in a see
ond. Now, I don't believe they could
build even single brick in that time.
Again, If one ship can cross the Attain
tic In twelve days, twelve ships should
be able to cross it in one day. don't
believe that either, SO I'm not going to
study mathematics And Johnny left

Parallel with the development of a
cosmic consciousness there is an ex-
traordinary tendency toward idealism.
The world has never been haunted by
the belief that there is something I'M
real and ilusory in the material uni-
verse and all its phenomena. Plato
held with oriental philosophers that
there is no objective universe, its va
rious phenomena being only projec-
tons from the consciousness of each
individual Bishop Berkeley based his
system Of philosophy upon this theory.
He melted matter down into phe-
nomcna present t. the senses.
The striking feature Of the present
history Of idealism is the fact that 1t
has left the ranks of the philosophers
and professional thinkers and is
spreading rapidly among the people.
The theory is that the spiritual is the
only real, and that by developing the
spiritual nature and bringing the
mind into harmony with the supreme
mind harmony In the outward or
ply sical being will result. 1t will thus
be seen that the subject of cosmic
consciousness is not a finespun theory
of the brain, but is intensely practical
in its bearing upon the health and
happiness OF the race. If it means
as many believe, the influx of divine
power, Il direct importation Of life
from the supreme source of life, then
no subject could have a more surpass-
ing interest

ESPECIAL CONSCIOUSNESS TO MORNING JOURNAL
Santa Zee. June 27.--The depart
ment of education today received cop
les of the new catalogue of the New
Mexico State Normal school of Silver
City. Its 166 pages are interspersed
with attractive half-tone cuts of the
school and its surroundings. A very
complete alphabetical index is rather
a novelty for a school catalogue but is
very convenient The statistics for
last summer show an attendance of
141 in the normal college department
and LAG in the high school depart
ment, in addition to fourteen special,
and seven institute students, making
total of 30S. The winter term atteu-
dance was twenty-eight in the col
lege department, 109 in the high
school, thirty-two in the commercial
department, thirteen special students,
while the attendance in the training
school, which includes pupils from
the kindergarten to the eighth grades
was 100. There were total Of S04
resident students and forty-seven cor
respondence students and a grand to-
tai enrolment for the year of 619.
President Enloe of the school, to-
day addressed the fellowship class
of Federal Judge William III. Pope in
the Presbyterian sunday school and
tomorrow afternoon at the summer
school in the Old Palace will deliver
an educational lecture. while Miss
sturdevant will give dramatic re-
cital and the summer school chorus
will render several selections.

AFRAID or DEATH.


The pomp of death" said the wise
Bacon frightens us more than death
itself" The King of Terrors has no
terrors that we have not let him. And
yet who would disagree with the sem
timent of the unhappy Oscar Wilde2
Death is the only thing that ever terri
flies me. ! hate it, one can survive
everything nowadays except death.
But Wilde did not hate death when
it finally came to release his harassed
and broken spirit Reason and com
mon sense bid us neither to hate nor
to fear death, but simply to ignore it
until the hour comes, and then to ae-
cept it Just as we accept life. A Roman
stole philosopher was diseoursing one
day on life and death.
They are iust the same" he said,
there is no difference between them "
why don't you die, then, II there is
no difference" one of his disciples
asked.
Because there is no difference, re-
