Thus the apostle Paul states that the
knowledge of the love Of God mani

Christ, is the secret Of the life that
always shows its colors.
"The love Of God is the rainbow Of

EASY TO SEE ONES BRAIN
Scientist Asserts That All That Is
Necessary Is Candle and
Some Perseverance.

"Uave YOU ever seen your hrain?'
IS not such an outlandiSh question rs
one might suppose. In fact, it is quite
POSSIBLE to see ones own brain, accord
ing to DR.. Fraser Halle, says London
Tit-Bits.
Many years ago PUrklngc startled
the scientific world 10y announcing that
by passing Il candle to and fro several
times by the side of the eye, this might
be done. The air in front, he declared
was transformed into a kind of screen
on which was reelected what he sup
posed to he Il magnitiod image of part
of the retina.
This started Il research movement
n controversy began.
Sir G. WheatStouc thought the pro-
f,ssor was slightly out of his bearings.
He declared that what the latter had
seen was merely the shadow of the
vascular network.
Then DR.. Fraser Halle returned to
the attack. and stated that he had sue
cccdcd in identifying the picture with
the representation of the "antcrior lobe
of the corpbrum.'
The candle should be moved TO and
fro about -four inches below the eye
and three and quarter inches from
the face. If the movement is suspend
ed, the mag" disappears. Night is
