Science

Science does not entirely deny these
things. because there may be truths
in them beyond the present methods
of research. But science says there
is no known case. under proper meth
DDS of observation, where single in

mits suggestion and auto-suggestion
and certain definition Of hynotism.
Therefore. it is possible, although not

of nature governing phenomena that
come in the realm of mental telep-

Astrology. palmistry and phrenology
are now known to be fake sciences.
They still have thousands of follow

the evidence, thus far, is against It,
The strongest argument in its favor

For the first time in history, the

over the houses of the British Parlia-
ment.
Should King George die, would we
raise the British flag over our Houses
Of Congress2
We surely ought to do It, Not in
token of respect for any title or of
any individual, but as a tribute of re-
spect and sympathy Of one great peo-
pie for another.
The Eagle poised over the den of
the Lion! The touch Of the spirit
that makes all men kin. The CLEAN
of hope Frightening Brotherhood of
Man" writ upon the clouds of the
heavens.
Poor, weak, cropping civilization!
Why can we not be honest, loving
brothers at other times than when we
meet to sadly look upon our great
dead?
