Your MAGNETISM

lessons that the entire formula for heal
ing diseases can be compressed into the
words, keep clean, learn the current of
your magnetism and control it."
In the previous articles in this depart
| ment 1 have also shown that keeping
! clean involves the complete establishment
of natural life, including the full use of
all the conditions of life, to wit, earth,
water, food, companionship, magnetism,
| air and liberty.
| To the uninitiated, however, the words
| learning the current of magnetism and
controlling it" have little meaning, be-
cause they do not understand what the
current of magnetism is, or how 1t may
be controlled. 1 will therefore explain.
The human body may be divided into
| seven principal organs. Each of these
| organs presides over a system Of subor-
dinate organs, SO that each one may be
said to represent distinct part of the
| body, and it is desirable that every in
dvidual should learn to think of himself
as a chain of seven important links, viz,
| the sexual, skin, digestive, heart, cere-
Drum, lungs and cerebellum.
| The sexual organs control the function
| of generation. The skin is the principal
organ of depuration. The digestive or .
gans furnish nutrition to the body and aid
in depuration. The heart regulates the cir
| culation. The cerebrum performs the
| office of observation and gathers intelli-
gence. The lungs perform respiration and
| purify the blood and the cerebellum pre-
| sides over all the motions of the body.
| These motions constitute the expression
| of life. All other organs of the body are
| subordinate to these and Joined to them
| in the performance of some of their
| duties.
In Vitosophy we are taught that OBJ
| jects are electric or magnetic, as they
| possess negativeness or positivcness OF
condition. Thus any object is electric
when II is cold and quiet; magnetic when
| 1t Is warm and vibratory. Applying this
reasoning to the organs of the body, we
| find that in various persons there is quite
difference as to the relative negative
ness or positiveness of the different or
ganS. While some persons are generally
uniform throughout in color and temper
ature, others have a varied condition of
| these organs. Thus it is quite possible
| for a man to have magnetic condition
| of the stomach and digestive organs,
while he has an electric condition of the
| heart; or he may be very positive in the
action of his brain and very negative in
| the action of his cerebellum. In this case
| he would be very rapid in his thought
| and slow in his actions; while If the con-
ditions were reversed he would be slow in
his thought and rapid in his actions.
These relative conditions of negative
ness and positiveness in the various or
| gans of the body constitute a condition
| which produces the current of magnetism
| continually flowing from the positive Or
| gans to the negative organs, and 1t is the
province of the skillfu Vitosophist in
making deineation of character to de-
| scribe these conditions accurately and
note their results. There Is also a mega
| tiveness and positiveness which re-
suits from the form of the molecules
| which compose the various organs, and
~
ture above noted. The organs that are
composed of alkali molecules will be con-
cave in shape, while organs that are COM
posed of acid molecules will be convex in
shape. Alkali organs are slow in action;
acid organs are rapid. The skillful vi.
tosophist understands how to determine
these conditions; also to make an allow
| ance for them In his estimate of what the
kind of magnetism really is. AS the body
is divided into seven principal organs and
each organ may be either electric or
magnetic, and also alkali or acid, 1t fol-
lows that there are twenty-eight possible
conditions; out of these twenty-eight pos
sible conditions, fourteen are always pres
emit This makes a simple mathematical
problem which, based upon the observa-'
ton of the skillful Vitosophist, is easily
worked out and thus determines the char
acter of the individual The fourteen
conditions which are present in any indi-
vidual in his normal state constitute his
character. Whenever these conditions
are changed by an interruption of the
regular flow of magnetism the individual
has lost his character and is diseased.
1t is quite possible to lose ones charac-
ter; the loss is a serious one and must be
remedied before health can be restored.
The individual who has lost his character
is In very much the same plight as the
Irish servant girl who Travelled on the
Fol A H. T., a
old days of the Erie canal when canal
boats were the principal means of traffic
between Buffalo and Albany When she
left Buffalo she had an excellent recon-
mendation from her last employer, and it
is well known that the Irish domestic
usually refers to such testimonial as
her character" On the voyage toward
Albany she had the misfortune to mis-
place it, and as 1t could not be found she
was in deep distress. An Irishman on
board thought that he could remedy the
difficulty, as he had read the testimonial
and knew it's contents, so he wrote sub
stitute as follows: This is to certify that
Mary Ann O'Grady had a good character
when she left Buffalo, but she lost 1t on
the canal boat coming down to Albany"
When the character is lost 1t is absolutely
necessary to set about restoring health
The first thing to do is to clean the body
thoroughly The next Is to study the
natural character and to see how far 1t
has been departed from. Where an organ
that is naturally magnetic has become
electric it is necessary to warm up; where
an organ is naturally electric and it is
very hot and inf1amed it is necessary to
cool it down. The Vitosophist accom-
plishes this by the application of the
simple remedies of earth-water, food,
companionship, magnetism, air and
liberty-in the proper temperatures. When
the normal condition is restored health i'm
mediately results.
Nature changes the current of mag
netism in every individual twice in every
twenty-four hours During the day the
cerebellum is actively employed in pre-
siding over the motions of the body and
this causes it to maintain a positive con-
dition. The lungs are employed seven |
times as much as they are during sleep, |
and these organs are strongly positive |
during the activities of the day. The
cerebrum does a tremendous amount of |
thinking and planning, and this keeps
strong supply of blood directed into that
organ and renders it positive The heart |
maintains an even flow of blood in the |
circulation and is slightly more positive
during the day than at night
