ERVATION PROVES THE EXISTENCE OF A PSYCHIC WORLD,as real as the world known to our physical senses.
``And now, because the soul acts at a distance by some power that belongsto it, are we authorized to conclude that it exists as something real,and that it is not the result of functions of the brain?
``Does light really exist?
``Does heat exist?
``Does sound exist?
``No.
``They are only manifestations produced by movement.
``What we call light is a sensation produced upon our optic nerveby the vibrations of ether, comprising between 400 and 756 trillionsper second, undulations that are themselves very obscure.
``What we call heat is a sensation produced by vibrations between 350and and{sic} 600 trillions.
``The sun lights up space, as much at midnight as at midday.Its temperature is nearly 270 degrees below zero.
``What we call sound is a sensation produced upon our auditory nerveby silent vibrations of the air, themselves comprising between 32,000and 36,000 a second.
