"
I TELL you, Evans, said Dr. Dorp, banging his fist on the arm of his chair for emphasis,
the science of psychology is in much the same stage of development today as were the material sciences in the dark ages."
But surely,
I objected, the two centuries of investigation just past have yielded some fruit. It cannot be that the eminent men who have devoted the greater part of their lives' to this fascinating subject have labored in vain.
The doctor stroked his iron-gray Van Dyke meditatively.
With a few—a very few exceptions, I'm afraid they have,

Most men are creatures of their desires.
They believe what they want to believe. Under the circumstance it was not difficult for a clever psychic to read the mind of the scientist and tell him the things he wanted to hear."
But what of the many investigators who have not been similarly influenced?
I inquired. Surely they must have found some basis—
