Thesa three states of consciousness
correspond exactly with three primary
eolors-namely S-blood-red; 1-yellow
sunl ght; aad O-tTue blood. Following
along the very clear line of this demon
stration. our gifted author shows that
the first stage on the road TO living for
ever is ito avoid reading tales that end
badly, or witnessing maudlin dramatic
tragedies. or recapitualating them In our
thoughts"
The next stage is that 'at meals there
ought to be a cessation of all unpleasant
diseussion-in fact, the less said the
better. SO, when assimilating food and
drink. We should, as far as In our power
lies. have congenial surroundings. and
think our highest thoughts. and in this
way salt our bread with out own ideals
That seems fairly easy And so does
this:
