Ground Thus Prepared
Possesses Great Deal
Of Fertility.

Ground that is thus prepared
possesses more than ordinary
fertility. because not only is
greater depth Of soil, filled with
nouriShing elements, brought
into action to feed the plants,
but the pulverizing by the ex-
plosions of virgin layers that
were never before broken up
into soil brings a fresh store of
plant food into use. Then, too,
it has been shown that the
greater degree of fineness TO
which the explosions reduce the
particles of earth is an irnpor-
tant matter, since 1t results in
the freeing of chemical ele-
ments, even from soil that Is re-
garded rs worn out, that the
usual methods Of cultivation do

A single dynamite or gam

depth of about a yard produces
a cone of pulverized earth from
thirty-six to forty square feet in

of the explosion is so completely
used up in the trituration of the
soil that there is no serious
throwing about of fragments at

And when into chaos the systems hurled,
Again shall the Builder reshape world.
You and you will be; this while you are:
Your spirit has Travelled both long and afar.
1t from the Source, the Source it returns
The spark that lighted eternally burns
1t slept in the jewel it leaped in the wave
1t roamed In the forest, 1t from the grave;
1t took on strange garbs for long Of years,
And now in the soul Of yourself it appears
From body to body your spirit speeds on;
1t seeks form when the old is gone
And the form that finds is the fabric you wrought
On the loom of the mind, with the fiber Of thought.
AS dew is drawn upward in rain to descend,
Your thoughts drift away and in destiny blend
You can not escape Them petty, great,
Or evil, noble, they fashion your fate
Somewhere planet, sometime and somehow,
Your life will reflect all the thoughts of your now
The law is unerrng; blood atone;
The structure you you must live in alone
From cycle to cycle, through time through space
Your lives with your longings will keep pace
And all that you ask for, and all you desire,
Must come at your bidding, flames out Of fire.
You fashioned the paths that your footsteps trod
And no you from error sin
Until you shall bark spirit within.
Once list to that voice and all tumult is done;
Your life is the life of the Infinite One;
In the hurrying you conscious Of pause
With love for the Purpose, and love for the Cause.

5000 years. We have not even

Ten years ago, | published a Sc

real mentalists OF the ancient
Asiatic world, wiled away more

Jumma and Indus, in supernal
heights of abstract thought. None
since has been able to add to this
height of refined mentation. They
rang all changes on mind.

A Universal Mind,

profound wise men of the East"
as Badarayana, Vedanta founder,

that even these men thought they
We're unable of themselves to do
these remarkable mental feats.
Ihey saw, as they discovered
these powers, hitherto apparently
latent in some obscure mind re-
gion, that the human mind Is in
deed elaborate and complex be-
yond comparison.
In fact, these men Of mighty
minds, now only equaled by rev
elers in the sublime heights Of
calculus, but in an entirely diff
terent way, really believed that
they were helped by some vast
external mind. They thought it to
be impossible of themselves to
send mind messages to great dis
tances and receive from their
friends at a distance Then they
advanced the theory that there
is a cosmic mind. And that this
universal mind aids man
Thus an ancient Hindu, when he
succeeded in taking away the eft
feet of gravity and left heavy
object suspended in the air, AT
times thought that his mind did
not cause the cessation of gravi-
tation; but that cosrnlc mind
really caused the humiliation OF
attraction.
And when paralytics were cured
they thought that some external
power wrought the change.
