BORAH THE AUTHOR.
It was beautiful dream and IN
the effulgence Of IFS brightness
the congress melted away. and
the world was told that Monroe
had nothing on Harding. for the
Virginian's Era Of Good Feeling
would look like 80 cents com
pared to Harding's permanent
world settlement on the sea.
But It wasn't Harding's at al.
That Ii, the conception was
Borah's and not the Presidents.
When Senator Borah introduced
his resolution for i conferences
to secure an agreement between
ahe great naval nations. the ADJ
ministration forces and others
sought to kill It. Some wanted Q
broader conference, including AL
nations. But that would have

Boral1 idea. Mr.. Harding adopted
livery wisely and broadened It.
But he was careful not to appoint
any American with large vision on
the commission, or one who would
buck the Administration plan.

remained.
And yet, until the recent de-
mands Of the British and Amer
lean naval leaders appeared In

many people still believed the
Washington conference had really
settled the possibility Of naval
expansion and naval expenditure
and naval competition.

What is the answer?
The Washington times. [volume] (Washington [D.C.]) 1902-1939, 1923-03-25

But please do not believe for q
moment that offer this expert
ment in anything like a spirit Of
making an expose, either Of my
own methods or of others who prac-
tice similar methods.
The word EXPOSE" is q sinister
one. To expose a thing means
that 1t Is not real.
Professional magicians. sleight-
of-hand performers, practitioners
Of trickery all over the world have
done more to injure the sincere
and honest investigation Of psychic
phenomena than all authentic ex-
periences have encouraged it.
That which the skeptic cannot
understand he will deride.
However, / leave 1t to my readers
to consider this experiment and to
perform 1t with sincere open
minded faith.
It is my contention, based upon
long experience. that faith in the
existence Of life after death is not
an essential for the development Of
clairvoyance.
Intellectual capacity plays no
part in the cultivation of clair
voyance. AS a matter of fact. per-
sons of phlegmatic temperament,
persons who are unimaginative, not
susceptible to impulse. are the best
mediums or clairvoyants.
To test your own receptiveness
to this expression you must be cog.
infant that there happens in the
life Of every one certain indtca-
tions Of "premonition" or "intui-
ton" as this sensation is called,
Intrinsically, there is no such thing
as promonition or intuition, accord
ing to the prevailing scientific
thought. Premonition is psychic in
its structure, and intuition or pre-
sentiment must be credited to the
same cause. Science vehemently
disputes the existence of a sixth
collateral sense.
HAVE STRANGE FEELING.
Clairvoyance is we'll illustrated
by this sentence from Thomas
Bailey Aldrich's delightful book,
"Poukapog to Pesth," where, on
page 145. he writes:

was no feeling Of insecurity. I

ney lasted, not how far from the
earth we were when we arrived.
But It was q gloriously beautiful
arrival"
THE CHALLENGE.
The recital goes on to empha-
size that the individual identity
Of the dead Is preserved in the
White Shadowland.
Now the favor1te charges
brought against the experlmenter
who would determine If he is sus-
ceptible to clairvoyant influences
is that the person is either VIC
tim Of mental illusion or self
hypnosis, or that he produces
spiritual contact which is Of no
importance-<that the written I'M
pressions transmitted from The
mind to the paper are incoherent
mean nothing.
I meet this challenge with the
contempt it deserves.
The clairvoyance Of Paul was
derided, and the presentiments
which we receive every day In
our commonplace lives are bland
ly credited to coincidence"
. But is there such a thing as
coincidence?
Is there a sense of intuition?
Is there q sensation Of Fremont
ton which originates in mans liz
telligence?
Your reason and your sense OF
logic disputes this.
Astonishing results have been
gained by the simple process
