He may not known all that is involved in the operation, of the scientific explanation of what he does when he twiddles the pointers of his dials. But he knows he is adjusting his receiving set to the wave length of the sending station he wishes to get. Throughout the world, there are thousands of radio sending stations, and they are working every day. But the man who has no receiving set never receives an impulse from any one of them, and the man who has a receiving set gets no intelligible massage from the station with which he ia not in proper tune. Even when he is in tune, he does not always register. Static or some other counteracting influence may prevent. There appears to be some analogy between radio waves and thought waves. Possibly both travel in. the ether. Possibly both move in widening circles like the circles made when a stone is thrown into n pond. Possibly we shall learn, some day. to direct our thought waves as beam wireless is now directed. At present, we know viiv little about what thought i,s or how it operates. We transfer our thought.-, on,- to ..n..t through the rather clumsy medium uf language, and beiause tin medium is 1 lunisv we understand one another onl im'erfect !y. LATE ARl IIBIKHOP'S WORK Hut we know there 1- a t ran -1 ereliif of thought in a more subtle maimer than l nieaiis if wm-tU.

In ilritish Columbia, a few year.- ago. the !;,; Aivhhi-hop OuVernet and his daughter experimented with thought t ransfe rente, and with some sueees.-. In Portland, only reeentlv. a bank rashier became convinced that an attempt wa- to i. made to rob his bank that he and his wife, also an employe the bank, mappetl out a plan of action Mild rehearsed it Nrx day. the cashier took a loaded rifle to tht bank with him. the attempted tvi.i.erv oeeurreil. the t-ashier followed the plan he had made ailti the robbery was foiled and two of the robbers killed. How el.-e .an one explain 'h.-se things except on the theory that thought is et'ergv of -onie ,-orl. thai it is not confined to the human brain the station uHci, generates it - but juiImj.-- out into the ether ia waves, where it is apprehended only by those who have receiving sets properly attuned? The mind of the bank cashier may have been in tune with the mind of one of the bandits who were planning the coup at Portland. That may have been accident. But it ia no accident that members of the same family frequently have thofr minds in tune. They are or have been much together, and their habits and methods of thought have become aligned. In the case of parent and child or brother and sister, there are certain physical resemblances, too, that may help. In the case of eastern yogis, the concentration, year after year, on the same line of thought must bring their minds more or less 'into alignment, and so into tune. AHILITY TO TUNE IN With the thousands of radio stations pulsing forth their waves into the ether, there is a possibility of tremendous confusion. And there would be confusion did not each atation adhere to its own wave length. But th radio rppfuaion peaftali U nothing cornpared to the confusion thrre aause- be. lt.Towgf 1atrtng igictb. irom every orain in the universe. Nature, it is well known, gives her creatures the means of taking advantage of what facilities in their environment are useful to them, and she likewise makes it possible for them to develop protective armor against things and influences tht are inimical. Possibly our general indifference to thought waves is part of this protective armor, defending our susceptibilities against the confusion of the universe. Possibly, in time, we shall acquire the ability to tune in on the thought waves all about us. aelectlng those we wish and shutting out all the others. And if we develop such a faculty as that, what is to prevent our tuning in, at will, on the jrreut thought waves of the past, waves generated by master minds and sent winging forth to vibrate for all time, but never reduced to words or recorded in any literature? dloi'eBrwciondMei'BreaU " delicious wheat flaOor is retained THIS U th atory of the baseball bat , that might have been a surgeon's : knife.
