HENRY WOOD
Well Known Barre Man
Prominent
AS AN AUTHOR
He Has Gained A World Wide
Reputation

The Tribune OF Detroit, Michigan,
publishes the following article in ref
ereuce to former we'll known Barre
man, who owns large amount of
property in this city today and who
has many friends here:
Henry Woods books treating of
metaphysical subjects and related top
les have had a very wide circulation
In this and other countries-one book
in particular, "Ideal Suggestions
Through Mental Photography" be-
ing repeatedly ordered by booksellers
In Australia and New Zealand. AL.
though he had contributed an occa-
sional article to American magazines
and newspapers. He first came into
prominence as writer in 1887, on
the publication of his book, "Natural
Law in the Business World" The
book attracted much attention because
OF the authors original handling of
the problems of sociology and econo-
mics. Quite recently the greater part
of this book, together with the "Po-
litical Economy Of, Natural Law"
published some years ago, has been
recsst hy the author and appears un-
der TIE title, "The Political Econmy
OF hunanism," which has already
passc-. through five editions.
Mr.. Wood has also entered the
field of tiction--his edward Burton"
dealing with New England types and
abounding in graphic dellneations,
having met with most cordial appro-
val. This book appeared in 1890, and
is now in its eighth edition. He re.
ceived his early education in the pub
lie schools of Barre Vt., where he
was born Jan. Is, 1884. He also at.
tended the Barre academy and later
took a curse IN Boston commercial
college, preparatory to his chosen oc-
oupatiou, which drew him westward,
where he remained till his forced re.
tirement from business in 1870, since
which time he has lived in the vicini-
ty of Boston. 1t was owing to i'll.
health, from which he suffered for
several years, that Me. Woods thought
was turned in the direction Of meta
physical healing.
