tor. DECENTRALIZATION of energy Is a
fact that has been known for years
and which fact l took into considera-
ton In my work.

"This sort of work may throw light
on many of the biological problems,
such as heredity. and should have an
application on medicine. The expert
ment Is not exactly along my line of
work. and 1t is my intention to turn
what facts have over TO the Uniyer-
sity of California or the California
Academy Of Science for further con-
sideratiOn. II they care for them.
THE value Of my discovery will be

Haley. when asked what his findings
might be used for.
The etheric double is not spirltu-
alistic. but, as l say. biological and.
aided by the power Of the human body
and psychic mechanism effects on the
body, 1t may be applied to medicine.
II is my firm belief that system of
medical diagnosis may eventually be
founded on the theory" the doctor
concluded.
Doctor Haley said he had been
working on his latest experiment but
one month.

MERCHANT TELLS or
A REMARKABLE CASE

Writing from Maxey's. Ca. A. j.
Gillen. proprietor of a large depart
ment store at that place, says:
Il have customer here who was in
bed for three years and did not go to
a meal at any time. She had five ply
sicians and they gave her out. One
bottle of Tanlac got her up. on the
second bottle she commenced keeping
house and on the third she did all the
cooking and hOusework for a family
of eight"
This sounds really Incredible. but 1t
comes unsolicited from highly cred
liable source and is copied verbatim
from the letter.
Tanlac is sold by leading druggists

California Surgeons Experiment
Raises interesting Question
Among Scientists.
HOLD DISCOVERY VALUABLE
Doctor Believes He Has Provided
Basis for Far-Reaehing Biological
Research-Etherie Double of
Amputated Member Pictured.

San Francisco.-The recent an.
nOuncement by DR.. p. s. Haley. local
surgeon, that he has photographed the
etheric double of mans thumb.
which had been cut Off at the joint,
has aroused an interesting scientific
discussion.
Scientists say Doctor Haley's ex-
pertinent raises the question Of wheth-
er man possesses within himself dor
mant energy to reproduce parts Of
himself, such as an arm or leg, when
he loses them.
Doctor Haley does not profess that
his experiment proves such a theory.
but declares that he believes he has
provided the basis for far-reaching
biological research.
Likewise he insists his experiment
In no wise is Of "spiritualistic" ma
ture.
my own contribution is simply to
show by photography that crystaliza-
ton Of energy exists. Scientists may
60 much further and possibly In time
demonstrate that such capitalization
Of energy may be made permanent In
stead Of momentary. such as my
photographs show" Doctor Haley
said.
Likewise II may prove that ghosts
are not supernatural, but simply O
natural and material compound of ex-
ternalized energy. II is certain that
some animals see things not visible
to human eyes. Likewise certain per-
sons are psychically sensitive to
things which others are not. There Is
a great field for investigation opened
by my experiment"
Thumb OF; Felt Pain.
Doctor Haley's subject I'm his inter-
esting test was woodworker who
had lost his thumb. The woodworker
believed himself conscious TO pain
when pin was inserted where the
thumb once was. For the experiment
the stump was placed on highly SEN
sitized paper In a Photographic solu-
ton. Four Impressions were taken
ranging In time from one-half to a
minute and a half.

A MOUTH FULL.

Law and order is what every
self respecting citizen desires.
Common sense however would
dictate that neither law nor or
der can be maintained or pre-
served by disregarding the law
of the land, by forgetting the
golden rule, and violating law
of God. Therefore, all reason
able people, can but deplore any
organized effort of the regard
less of their purpose or intent
which has a tendency in disre-
gard constituted authority, that
takes the law unto itself, and
makes of the law mob rule.
People cannot too strongly con-
denim any effort, take the law
into its hands, and seek to mete
out what it considers justice by
violating the laws the rights.
and liberties of others. Law and
order prevail only when the law
takes is course.-The CONNER

OUR COUNTRY.

Many of us in the United
States do not actually realize
how fortunate we are. No
here else on earth are people so
/, blessed as are those in this
country with the things that
make for human comfort and
contentment. We live under a
form of government which
through the years has proved
the best that has been devised
by man.
Our land is lowered with inn
measurable material riches; our
soil and climate bring forth
crops in abundance: our towns
and cities are orderly and sani-
tary with well lit streets, shady
parks and flourshing shops; our
homes are modern, containing
comforts and conveniences
which we have long taken for
granted, and our food, fuel and
transportation resources are not
equaled by any other country
in the world.
Compare these mighty bless
ings we enjoy-yet fret and fuss
about like a spoiled child-with
what the people of other lands
are enduring. Think of. the
starving millions of the East
and Russia's desolation and ruin.
Think of the incomprehensible
poverty, wretchedness and dis
ease prevalent in the old world.
Think of the lawlessness, muir
der and pillage, the offspring of
unstable governments, and wars
which feed on petty racial jeal-
ousies and agelong hatred.
Think of the utter devasta-
ton of Petrograd, with its choas,
streets fallen in, roads torn up,
stores abandoned and buildings
wrecked and in decay, transport
tation facilities DESTROYED, food
and almost unobtainable, with
its remaining half million pop
ulation out Of q total 1000, 900
before the World War, facing
want, misery, disease and death.
When you think of the condi-
tons YOU must realize that we
who live in the United States
are living in the best place on
Gods green earth. Let us feel
a keener love for our country,
its laws and customs, which
have enabled us in the past to
SO broadly enjoy its manifold
blessings. Well may every man,
woman and child who breathes
beneath the Stars and Stripes ex-
stantly declare with each dawn
ing of new day: Thank God
| am an American and live in

LOUISIANA NEGRO PER.
CENTAGE.

Washington, D. C.,Aug. 49,
The population of the State of
Louisiana as recently announced
by the Bureau of the Census,
Department of Commerce, is
61.O per cent white and 1873 per
cent Negro, In 1910 the per-
centage Negro was 43.1.
The Negro population, which
was 1854 in 1910, decreased
to 7OO,257 in 1920, a decrease of
1.9 per cent. The white popu-
lation in the same period in
creased from 941, O86 to 1885,
Gil or 1876 per cent.
About One-seventh (14.1 per
cent? of the white population of
the state is of foreign birth or
foreign parentage, there being

rent, the other being native. The
rest of the white population.
numbering 941,724, are. native
Americans born of native Amer
lean parents. They constitute
about six-sevenths 1853 per
cent) of the total white popula-
ton and one-half (52.4 per cent?
of the total population of the
state.
!. In addition to the whites and
the Negroes the total popula-
ton includes 1906 Indians, 387
Chinese, 81 japanese, 1O4 Fill
pinos, and 81 Hindus.
In most parishes of the State
the percentage of Negroes has
decreased and in Al of the Ga

+! Washington, Aug. 16.- Amy
householder could have s'home
brew" under interpretations
placed upon an amendment to
the Willis Campbell beer bill
approved today by the House.
The amendment, adopted as a
substitute for a Senate provi-
sion, would require federal
agents to have warrants before
entering homes in search Of
liquor. 1t provides, however.
no warrant shall be issued for
search of a home unless there
!! is reason to believe such dwell
ling is used as a place in which
liquor is manufactured for sale
or sold"
Representative Fields, Demo-
crat, Kentucky, declaring the
House amendment virtually
would sanction ''home BREW .
provided it was not made to be
sold, attempted to have the
words ''for sale" stricken out,
but his motion was rejected, 81
to ID.
Representative Volstead, Re-
publican, Minnesota, author of
the original prohibition act, fav-
ored the House substitute as
adopted. He declared later it
would not change the policy of
the prohibition enforcement bu-
reau in reference to home brew
ing. No attempt of late has
been made on orders from
Washington, he said, to prohibit
the home manufacture of potent
beverages for personal use.
''T'he section we put in the
bill provides the law is to be en-
forced as we intended when We
passed the prohibition act" said
Mr.. VOlstead. while it ex-
pressly stipulates no homes are
Ito be searched without warrant,
and then only if the liquor made
is being sold, federal officers
can get evidence in other ways
as to whether the law is being
violated. The section of the
original act prohibiting the man.
ufacture of liquor with alcoholic
content of more than haiti of
one per cent is still in force
Search Of homes without war
rants, Mr.. Volstead says, usually
has been conducted under the
revenue act, which authorized
such action under some circllIn-
stances.
