He is credited with q number OF

human beings are surrounded with
human emanations called human aura
These emanations are egg-shaped and
give forth . great variety OF most

Many persons can see this with the
naked eye, said the doctor yesterday.
1t is well known that railway en-
gineers and ship pilots can see as

Oecultism has for centuries stated
that everything in nature, from the
mineral up 10 man. is surrounded by q
sort Of special emanation OF duidic
cloud called aura. which constitutes 4
kind Of limited atmosphere around
every being. in the same way as every
star and planet is surrounded by its
own special atmosphere.

discern it with more OF less defUness
and are able 70 describe the interesting
minuteness Of its division and its bril-

This aura was described BIZ Para
celcus 800 years ago and was studied
some fifty years back by the celebrat-
ed Baron Reichenbaeh. Materialistic
scientists, however. who are not very
vel developed in clairyoyant vision
stubbornly refused 70 admit its exist
eace until AT last 1t was corroborated
by photography.
Two French scientists. Dr. Baradue
and Dr. Lebon, have just published
books and photographs on the human
aura which fully confirm the teachings
Of occulrism in the matter and their
discoveries are going TO open q new
field for the scientific study OF the
aura In the meanwhile. this subject
had for years been studied By members
OF the Theosophicsl Society, produe-
ing some interesting articles published

Marques has made z very special and

has had the good fortune OF obtaining
