S"Hetlfhes called human electricity {. Be that as 1t may. by whatsoever name l It may be known, its character Is pos l itlvely electrical This electro-magnetic influence Is of a vibratory character, and generated | by the principle of life. This vital, en- | ergizing element becomes stale by non-
 use; wasted by overuse and produces | nervousness by misuse.
 Electricity Is. somehow. inseparably
 connected with the ultimate atoms of | matter; and in the same mysterious manner the universal life force Is con-
 nected with every nerve. fiber and mol
 ecule of animal creation. If electric | ity and nerve force are not identical
 they are so nearly allied that they may
 be called twin forces. | Whence cometh this power? We
 speak of generating power. This is not strictly true, and Is likely to be
 misleading. All power exists now. and
 has always existed. We may generate force; 1. e., put the power in action. Al | that we can do is to evolve it from a
 latent condition. or use it in the form
 in which we find 1t. Man becomes pow. | erful in the measure that he learns to evolve; to use and direct power--the power that is.
 All force is generated within from | the life essentials-air. food and water
 The same elements exist for all per | sons, but all persons do not have the
 same force. While the difference may | be one of temperament or constitution, l am inclined to think 1t Is more largely | due to the fact that the elements with in reach are not utilized.
 How to utilize and economize this power Is an important feature. Professor Riddell has aptly said: The | electric dynamo is expression of power. There are four general ways in which l 1t may be directed: CD It may be pass ed through the motor of the electric car and force Is expressed as power; l (2) 1t may be passed as a sympathetic | current through the little wire of the incandessNnt bulb, and 1t becomes | light; (3) 1t may be forced through a
 wire with heavy resisting power, and it becomes heat; (D but ground the | wire and the current is wasted" Let us apply this principle to the human dynamo. and see now much it
 has to do with personal magnetism" physical, mental, spiritual
 In every man and woman there is a life battery. so to speak; creative force, 8 life principle which, like the electric current, may be used in four special ways: CD You can pass 1t to the muscles and build 1t into tissue and 1t becomes power-physical strength; (2) you can direct 1t to the brain. and 1t becomes light--intellectual brilliancy
 and mental vigor; tS) you can direct 1t to the emotions and 1t becomes heat feeling, love. sympathy; D but if
 you dissipate the force you will have
 neither physical strength, mental viz or nor emotional warmth. It will read lily be seen that you cannot waste the force in any direction without detract- ing, in a corresponding degree, from your strength of personal magnetism in other directions
 Science says: That which we call vi- tality or life Is, jn It's physical sense, electricity. It is taken into the system from the air and sunshine, and is gen.
 erated in the digestive organs by the chemical action of food and drink" Self-Protection.
 As all electrified bodies tend to part with their magnetism to the earth, 1t follows that the human electricity is
 being constantly subjected to this in- fiuence. Should 1t be drawn off in un- due proportion to the needs of the body the system becomes weak and de- ranged. It thus becomes necessary to conserve the human electricity. This Is done by insulation. by placing a non- conducting substance between the body and the earth, and thus check the drain. Insulation ic a scientific safe guard. This Is not mere speculative
 theory but the result of thorough in-
 vestigation and practical demonstra-
 tion. However, if a conclusion Is logi-
 cal 1t matters little whether 1t Is de-
 duced from theory or practice.
 This is especially true of the follow ing experiments, the results of which
 may not be very readily accepted by
 the general public; viz, all things be- ing equal, the left side of the body Is
 negative and the right side Is positive; the back is negative. You take in this human electricity through the negative
 side of the body 1eft) and 1t passes out through the right if anyone is on the right side to draw it. This the writer has scientifically proved to the fullest Therefore, 1t Is well to remember the trite but true saying: Always keep on the right side of a person" Iris true, this has been used only fgura- lively, but 1t is of great importance literally.
 By observing this prGcaution you will be able to protect yourself from the human parasites that exist in ev- cry community. This Is a protection of
 that physical magnetism so essential
 to ones vital force. All things consid-
 cred, 1t Is best to sit In position fac ing your visitor-be he friend or foe
 
 desired. These human parasites draw
 not only upon your physical forces. but
 upon the mental and nervous. also, un- less you understand how to make your self either positive or negative at will. This phase of the subject will receive special treatment under "concentra- ton"
 If you are lacking in personal mag netism" (physicaD, and you should ride or walk or sit with one who is physically strong, you should take that opportunity of loading up" by keeping on the right side.
 Whenever two persons sleep togeth- CT. and one is restful while the other is restless, you may depend upon 1t that the restful one Is unconsciously draw ing the life force of his or her com panion. It does not always follow that the weaker draws from the stronger; nor is it a question of right side, front or back when one is sleeping: i. e.. ow- ing to the many changes of position that occur during the night; therefore, in order that the restless one may have a restful and refreshing sleep 1t is nec essary to change conditions This is accomplished by changing sides (the side of the bed) with your fellow sleeper. Why? Because 1t equalizes the magnetism. How? The fact Is sufficient, the how is but a mere incl dent.
 How about the other fellow? If he has been restful. will he now become restless? That depends. If the rest full one Is surchargsd with physical the loss will not he nercen-
