Spiritual Supremacy.

Henry Wood; We are souls having
bodies. and not bodies having souls.
Man is higher than his visible instru-
lnent or embodiment. and should con-
tinually affirm his rule 1t is his
legitimate kingdom. He may cultivate
growing sense of spiritual suprcm-
acy. increasingly dominate physical
sensation, and by degrees free himself
! from it's tyranny. Hygiene to be truly
comprehensive and scientific, must
begin to concern itself with the clean
ness of mind as we'll as body, and with
the ventilation of the thought atmo-
sphere as well as the air of the apart
ment Bad .aental pictures must be
classed with sewer gas and pessimism
rated like malaria. Ideal.sm and op-
timism must take their place among
sanitary agencies, and man utilize his
hitherto slumbering resources and
focalize his thought forces. Vitality
can be increased from within. All this
is exceedingly simple when the work.
Ing Of the law is intelligently graspcd.
1t does not disparage physical
hygiene. but is friendly and cooper.
