And what manner or kind of energy is it that thus "draws" or "pulls" the other atom? It cannot be electricity, or magnetism, for those forces, as we have seen, are produced by a rate of vibration occasioned by the Mind-Power in the atoms themselves - therefore we must go back to the antecedent force, which is Mind-Power, and attribute to it the drawing or pulling force which moves the atoms toward each other.

That this attracting or pulling force is in operation between the particles of matter, there can be no doubt. No two atoms of matter are in absolute touch with each other - there is always a distance between them - a space which thus separates them - which never can be traversed or overcome.

In the first chapter of this work I called your attention to the manifestation of Mind-Power among the atoms and particles of matter, which was evidenced by actio motion, and movements resulting from "attraction and repulsion" of these atoms and particles. other words I showed that physical forces were produced by the motions of the particles, or vibration of the atoms, which arose from states of like and di like; love and hate; attraction and repulsion; plea ure and pain; among these tiny particles of matte And it is here that the elementary principle of tele-mentation is noticeable - here is where it may seen in full primitive force and operation. If you will think for a moment, you will see that the motions of the atoms are two-fold, vis. (1) the voluntary motion of the atom toward the other atom to which it is attracted by chemical affinity; and (2) the movement of the atom occasioned by the "attractive force" exerted by the other atom, in the same manner that a magnet "draws" the needle to it.

Haeckel has told us that there is the voluntary movement of the atom itself, in response to the "desire" awakened in it by the attraction - how does it become aware of the presence of the other atom unless something passes between them? And that something must be in the nature of a mentative current, for there is nothing else to pass, because all other forms of energy being produced by vibrations of the atoms arising from mental states, the Mind-Power must precede the physical energies, and must be the "something that passes between" the two atoms. Feeling the presence of the other atom, the first atom moves towards its affinity, voluntarily, and just as you move your arm or walk - the atom probably exerting a push upon the ether which must be to the atom or particle what the air is to the wing of the bird, or the water to the fin of the fish. But there is another cause of motion, as we have seen - the mutual pull of the attracting atoms.
