E THERE something more than
mere flesh and blood a law of

Perhaps you are unable to dip
to the mysteries of your own

kawing hunger for something

lakes you suffer in the darkness
the small hours of the morn-
K and perhaps you have given

But there is an answer!
Great minds have found it You
in find it. You know it exists
tea you kneel by lighted tapers,
pkinjt into the face of your dead,
fen the resonant tone of an
tan lifts your mind to things
tritual, when you are inspired
i the battlefield or swaved by

glimpsed somewhat the
truth that the Master realized and
revealed so completely when he
said: 'And thine ears shall hear a
word behind thee, saying, This is
the way, walk ye In it, when ye
turn to the right hand, and when
ye turn to the left.'
"Said that great industrialist,
Henry Ford, who, sensitively or
ganized, has a contact with some
thing somewhere which the ordin
ary man doesn't have and which
to my mind accounts for his abil
ity to see ahead of the other fel
low and to -project things on a
large scale: 'We are central sta
tions with myriads of entities go
ing and coming all the time with
messages. Thus no one is alone,
no one is helpless. All the ma
terial and insight that exists is
available for those who send for
it and can use it The more you
use the more you have. One of
the cardinal rules of life is use.
If you want more of anything,
use what you have.'
"Our conversation had been
about the inner powers and forces,
and I then made bold to put to
him the question: 'You feel, do
you, that if thought is a force
as we must recognize it is there
is such a thing as cultivating it
in some way, so that we may use
it more effectively than we ordin
arily do say, by way of some
definite direction of it, by concentration?'
IS answer was: 'Intensify
your thought and you set
up attraction. Concentrate on n
job, and you attract all the things
necessary to accomplish it. You
attract the things you give a
great deal of thought to. I have
had to quit many jobs and wait
because Ir haven't spent enough
thought on them. I have had to
wait for certain things to come
around. . . . You attract what you
need by putting a lot of thought
on it, then all the necessary
elements or entities come around
where you can use them. A thing
will build itself up if you keep
your thought on it. Thoughts are
materials.'

ing and truly gratifying, to find
by talking with them how large
is the number of men of affairs,
big affairs along one line or an
other, who are alive to these
truths, who are studying them,
and pursuing them, who are inter
ested in the laws of these inner
powers and forces of life, and
who are using them in their lives.
"They are realizing that these
bigger and more real things in
life, the things of the mind and
the spirit, together with the real
ization of the oneness of all life,
pay, after all, the larger divi
dends, and bring the real and
abiding pleasures and satisfac
tions in life.
Mk t AY I digress for a moment
y to mention an occurrence
which suggests itself here? Some
years ago it was my pleasure to
stop off in Michigan for a little
visit with a friend who when he
died some time later left a fortune
of many million dollars. Inherit
ing nothing but a good mind and
a good native ability, he had made
a fortune. His health broke and
( -

he lost it all. After the restora
tion of his health several years
before my visit, he had com
menced again to build a fortune
that he started on his . kitchen
stove.
"He was a man of rare vision
and patience. Tall and of splendid
physique when I knew him, he
told me he was but skin and
bones, as the saying goes, when
he started his way back to health
again. Exhausting the skill of
doctors and specialists and sani
tariums, even in the summer
weather he was encased in three
suits of underclothing and an
overcoat, moving here and there
in his wheel chair.
"One day in conversing with a
friend, he was told of a little wo
man in the same city who had
accomplished some remarkable
things in the realm of healing.
He was seized with a strong con
viction, and had himself wheeled
to her little cottage. Describing
his condition, nnd his futile efforts
in regaining his health, he told
her that he had come to stay with
her.
"'But,' she protested, 'I have
no room for you. I can't take you.'
'"That's all right,' he replied,
'but I am here, and I am here to
stay.' Seeing his determination,
she found a way. To explain the
situation he said to me:
" 'I realized in the presence of
this little woman that she had
something that I with my busi
ness and executive ability didn't
have.'
"He then set forth in a graphic
way how at the very first treat
ment he could feel the quickening
and the warming of his blood as
in a vitalised form it coursed
through his system.
IE BECAME interested in
11 the things she knew. This
interest grew, and he began to
make careful study of the Inner
powers and forces of life, which
he pursued with increasing ardor
as the years passed. He was prac
tically healed, ho said, when he
left the little cottage, and he left
it with a far greater knowledge
of life than when he was wheeled
into it.
"He then begun to make a
study of foods, an intensive study;
for he felt that the preservation
of health, which is the chief value
in life, was dependent to a very
great extent upon the food we
eat. The blood stream is the very
fountain of life, of the bodily life,
externalizing in the body always
of its kind; and the right elements
In food must be supplied to man
ufacture a vital and healthy type
of blood.
"He became convinced that
what Is the matter with the great "
proportion of people with whom
something is the matter is defec
tive eating, primarily the eating
of too much denatured food, as
well as unwise combinations of
food, and in many cases over-eating,
with under-exercise. This,
combined with his own recent ex
perience of the influence of the
mind and the spirit on the body,
gave him a knowledge of health
that he had never had before, nnd 1
enabled him eventually to be of
great help in this realm to many
people.
KQUT getting back to the prim
O ary purpose of relating this
anecdote: My friend had pur
chased some acres of ground ad
joining his factories on which he
had built a number of very at
tractive cottages, each with an
adequate parcel of ground. These
h : sold to his workers at practi
cally the cost of construction on
liberal terms of payment A little
beyond them, he had built a
simple cottage for himself nnd
for quiet. When the cares of the
growing business and his contact
with people began to get him
away from his bearings, he would
go there sometimes for a couple
of days at a time, to be entirely
alone, for rest, for thought, for
meditation, and re-creation. He
recalled how necessary he found
this in order to preserve the right
balance in life, to keep himself up
to par, that he might the more
fully enjoy life.
"It is an interesting bit of
human experience, and it carries
a lesson for all. Life is more than
eat and drink, more than business,
more than money. Business and
money are a means to an end, like
riches, but never an end in them
selves. "And before leaving the matter
the little woman! She had sat
at the feet of the Master, and she
believed His word. With a natural
interest, and evidently with an
unusual aptitude in herself, she
was impressed with His acts of
healing. She heard Him repent so
many times, 'Believest thou that
I can do this thing?' and the an
swer being always in the affirm
ative, she heard Him, 'According
to thy faith be it unto thee: Be
thou whole.'
"She realized then that to heal,
or to be of help In the healing of
another, it is necessary, through
the genuineness nnd the power of
one's own life, to instill a confi
dence in that other sufficient to
arouse his subconscious mind to
such a degree of activity thnt a
subtle force is engendered, which
produces tho healing.
"With so much physical suffer
ing in the world, so many dis
traught minds and nerves, nnd so
many ill bodies, there nre muny
who have wondered, many who
still wonder, why the church has
so completely forgotten or even
repudiated the example and in
deed the direct command of the
Master. After Instructing His dis
ciples and apostles nnd demon
strating to them, He commis
sioned them, as thoy went out to
spread His gospel and his mes
sage, also to render a henling
service 'He sent them to preach
the Kingdom of God, and to heal
the sick.'
MQUT on second thought, and
O when we know the history
of what transpired later on, why
this occurred becomes clear, and
will be considered more fully
later. It was a part, and a very
important part, in the life of the
little congregations that begnn to
take form here and there, wher
ever His disciples went.
"The Master was always keen
ly alive to every form of human
need, and we cannot help believ
ing from the meagre accounts of
His life we have, that He inten
tionally made the alleviation of
human suffering, which took so
many forms in His day, a very
real portion of His ministry.
"There are individuals, and
there are various groups, nt whose
hands it is finding a revival, and
in some cases a very significant
nnd vital revival, among His fol
lowers of today, in our own and
in many other countries."
