Henry Wood; man who has gained al
most absolute mastery Of himself, both
physically and mentally; man by the
forces and virility Of his writings has
come to be recognized as one of the lead
ing authors who are making articulate one
of the grandest movements Of the century,
the so called New Thought.
AT first after he graduated from the
academy Of his native town, Barre, Vt,
a business career called him and he came
to Boston to study in commercial college
from there going West and building up a
successful business in Cedar Rapids and
later in Chicago. Had he not, fortunately,
been forced to abandon his work because
of i'll health he doubtless would never have
become phTaser Of metaphysical thought
He tried all kinds of medicines and nearly
all sorts Of physicians, spent year in
Europe in futile search for health and
strength, and 1t was then that he was per-
suaded to put himself into appreciation Of
the New Thought The results were so
remarkable that he decided to devote his
life to the study and expressions Of Its
messages.
"His books treating Of this New
Thought are "Ideal Suggestions Through
Mental Photography, "The Political
Economy Of Humanism,m Gods Image
