 BE IT MADE KNOWN by this symbolic charter; as in 
 the beginning when the human race began to emerge from 
 savagery, and darkness of ignorance gave way before the bright 
 sun of education, great seers and philosophers prophesied the 
 dawn of a better day, and left the imprint of their experiences 
 indelibly impressed upon the pages of early written history to 
 guide the coming generations of men. These Archaic charac- 
 ters were bequeathed to posterity in the form of scripts in 
 symbols. So we, in this age, employ symbols as the system of 
 mental suggestion to convey to the minds of those who desire 
 Spiritual unfoldment a plan, whereby they can extend their 
 scope of knowledge into a comprehension of the Ultimate.

 The Live Forever Folk, an Associa- 
 tion organized in the City of Los An- 
 geles, State of California, in the year of 
 our Lord Nineteen Hundred and Twen- 
 ty-Two, presents to the world an in- 
 comparable and unusual service calcu- 
 lated to develop in each individual mem- 
 ber those latent God-given faculties 
 heretofore the possession only of the 
 ELECT. 
 
 Acting under instructions delivered 
 to the Organizers by a SPECIAL MES- 
 SENGER of THE SUPREME LODGE, 
 an Educational Curriculum prepared by 
 a Staff of Esoteric Masters will consti- 
 tute the tuition offered by the Corre- 
 spondence University of Occultism con- 
 ducted by the Association. 
 
 One of the most commendable fea- 
 tures of The Live Forever Folk Associa- 
 tion is that it allows every individual to 
 retain his membership in his respective 
 Church and Lodge, undisturbed in his 
 religious beliefs, and unhampered in the 
 practice of his obligations. 
 
 Aside from the detailed scientific 
 training in Spiritual Unfoldment, Psy- 
 chic Power, Metaphysical Philosophy, 
 Astrology, Numerology, Christian Liv- 
 ing, Magic, and certain secret methods 
 of operation never yet revealed, mem-

 bers of the Association will enjoy an 
 INDIVIDUAL SERVICE of an invalu- 
 able and remarkable nature. 
 
 There exist in certain remote regions 
 of India and Mexico assemblages of 
 men and women who have lived far be- 
 yond the commonly enjoyed span of life 
 in full youthful vigor of mind and body. 
 They function in the visible and invis- 
 ible with the indifferent ease of long 
 accomplishment. 
 
 Rumors of these Occult Lodges have, 
 from time to time, appeared in the Pub- 
 lic Press, and for that matter in the lit- 
 erature of all nations, both Past and 
 Present. 
 
 Their methods of thus attaining 
 PHYSICAL and SPIRITUAL 
 IMMORTALITY have been guessed at 
 but never revealed, because the world 
 was hardly ready for such knowledge. 
 
 Mankind, as a whole, failed to recog- 
 nize the SACREDNESS OF LIFE, and, 
 because of this failure, sacrificed its 
 IMMORTAL HERITAGE. 
 
 The World War, a horrible cataclysm 
 of Psychic Evil finding its physical ex- 
 pression in those fearful years of cru- 
 elty and destruction, wrung the Heart of 
 Mankind and impressed upon the Racial 
 Mind the SUPREME SACREDNESS 
 OF LIFE.

 gave a listening ear to the ever-present 
 whisperings of the SPIRIT. 
 
 An earnest seeking for Spiritual 
 Communication with the mis-called 
 Dead sprang into universal activity. 
 
 Teachers and Mediums of Communi- 
 cation appeared, as if by magic, in the 
 Cities of the World. An ever-mounting 
 wave of Spiritual longing swept the 
 world of men with the Flame of an in- 
 tense Desire. 
 
 Desire crystalized into Conviction. 
 In the blackness of Universal Night, 
 man called to man, THERE IS NO 
 
 DEATH. 
 
 Materialism fled before the Rising 
 Sun of Spiritual knowledge. 
 
 A Cosmical craving characterized by 
 a humble, intense passionate seeking be- 
 ban to register in the great sensitive 
 CRYSTAL of the SUPREME LODGE. 
 
 The Patient Watchers in the Secret 
 Chamber of the Observation Tower re- 
 ported that the long hoped for Day of 
 Revelation was at hand. 
 
 The BOOK of WISDOM may be 
 opened to the SEEKERS. 
 
 "The Live Forever Folk" is the first 
 established outpost of the Esoteric 
 Order of Secret Wisdom.

 are lovely, whatsoever things are of 
 good report, if there be any virtue and 
 if there be any praise, think on these 
 things.

 E move and live and have our 
 being in the world of the 
 GREAT UNSEEN. 
 
 What is the GREAT. UNSEEN? 
 
 It is the Heaven and Hell and Purga- 
 tory of the Religionist. It is the Astral 
 of the Theosophist. It is the Fourth 
 Dimension of the Mathematician, It is 
 the spirit world of the Spiritualist. 
 
 Why is it Unseen? pecause of the 
 rate of vibration. It is iri reality as solid 
 and material as the most solid and mate- 
 rial thing in this material world. 
 
 The GATEWAY to that INVISIBLE 
 EMPIRE is through the incomparably 
 beautiful ARCHWAY OF DEATH. 
 
 Through that Gateway we can pass 
 and repass at will. The VEIL has been 
 torn asunder. The MYSTERY of 
 MYSTERIES has been solved. 
 
 As in the Chemical laboratory we re- 
 solve the solid into an invisible gas and 
 again solidify that gas, so may we be- 
 come at will active intelligent occupants 
 of the Invisible Empire and return to 
 our own Material realm as one who re- 
 turns from a pleasant journey. 
 
 IMMORTALITY is today not a 
 BELIEF but a FACT. 
 
 The MEANS and the METHOD are 
 simple and scientific.

 US^^y ETAINING all the Powers and Liberty of Conscience 
 and Freedom of Initiative you inherently enjoy as 
 Individuals, YOU, as a Member of "The Live Forever 
 Folk," have associated yourself with MEN and WOMEN called 
 together and blended into one harmonious body in response to 
 the Universal Urge for Health, Power, Wealth, Success and 
 Happiness. 
 
 It is a scientific fact that every man and woman is the 
 possessor of a MIGHTY DYNAMIC FORCE which may be 
 centralized by Concentration and projected by the WILL, 
 enabling the Operator to accomplish the seemingly impossible. 
 
 It is the FORCE that raised Lazarus from the dead. 
 
 It is the FORCE that Daniel used to tame the Lions. 
 
 It is the FORCE that Moses used when he made a Canyon 
 of the Waters of the Red Sea, that the Children of Israel might 
 cross to the Promised Land. 
 
 It is the FORCE that made Rockefeller one of the Money 
 Kings of the World. 
 
 As a member of the Live Forever Folk you are taught to 
 use this COSMIC FORCE. 
 
 Think what it means to YOU when, as a COLLECTIVE 
 WHOLE, communication has been established between your 
 CENTER and the ULTIMATE CAUSE and your COLLEC- 
 TIVE WILLS are projecting your COLLECTIVE FORCES on 
 one given objective — your mutual Health, Power, Wealth, 
 Success and Happiness. 
 
 THIS IS YOUR GREAT PRIVILEGE as Members of 
 this Organization. 
 
 Enter the Realms of Cosmic Consciousness. 
 
 Cosmic Center Number One is a terrific, centralized, Cen- 
 tripetal Point of Irresistible Power established and kept in con- 
 tinuous activity by the Combined Wills of our members operat- 
 ing daily at a Special Hour. 
 
 We invite you to partake of the Super-joys of Life. 
 
 We invite you to become a part of the Hegemony of 
 Super-men and Super-women. 
 
 You desire to join the Cosmic Center and reap the im- 
 measurable benefits accruing from its CENTRALIZED 
 POWER. Send in your name and address and there will be 
 mailed to you a complete explanation of the method of joining 
 this Organization which has its local centers in every state of 
 the Union.

HIS is the Age of Conquest. The world is trembling 
 on the verge of a tremendous unfoldment. It is the 
 DAY OF REVELATION. It is the HOUR OF THE 
 GREAT DISCOVERY. 
 
 The telephone came and CONQUERED SPACE. 
 
 Wireless telephony and telegraphy came — and CON- 
 QUERED SPACE AND TIME. 
 
 The flying machine daily, hourly— CONQUERS THE 
 LAW OF GRAVITATION. 
 
 The radiophone today, seizing on the inaudible vibrations 
 of the HUMAN VOICE, brings it forth resonant, sweet and 
 true, to the LISTENER miles away. 
 
 Now comes the GREAT DISCOVERY— WE KNOW 
 POSITIVELY— THERE IS NO DEATH. The age-old ques- 
 tion, "If a man die shall he live again?" has been answered with 
 ringing certainty in the psychological and chemical laboratories 
 of the world. 
 
 In the past, Life has seemed to be but a hurried walk along 
 a narrow path of destiny, beginning and ending in the mystery 
 of the GREAT UNKNOWN. 
 
 HOPE only has been our balance wheel. HOPE only has 
 heard the flutter of a wing, the far-away suggestion of a sigh. 
 
 But now in the rising sun of KNOWLEDGE, HOPE has 
 been replaced by CERTAINTY and we KNOW THE TRUTH, 
 and the TRUTH has made us FREE. 
 
 Of all life's tragedies the most cruel is the Friend's good- 
 bye to a dead Friend, the Sweetheart's good-bye to a dead 
 Sweetheart, the Husband's good-bye to a dead Wife, the 
 Mother's good-bye to a dead Child. 
 
 The burden of the GREAT SADNESS has been lifted 
 from the human race. 
 
 No longer can it be said that, in reality, DEATH ONLY 
 IS THE ABSOLUTE CERTAINTY. 
 
 DEATH HAS BEEN REPLACED BY LIFE. 
 
 The body disappears. The solid earth itself will, in time, 
 disappear. So with the stars and planets. All — all will lose 
 their shape and dissolve into apparent nothingness. But the 
 POWER back of the stars and the planets, the POWER back 
 of the THOUGHT in your brain CAN NEVER DIE. 
 
 That power is the SPIRIT, and THE SPIRIT IS THE 
 ONY REAL THING IN THE UNIVERSE. 
 
 Fifteen 
 
We all die, and numberless have been the answers to the 
 question, "What happens after death?" And the answers have 
 been mere speculations. 
 
 The "Live Forever Folk Association" has gathered into 
 their service the purest Mediums, the Greatest of Esoteric 
 Teachers, perfect instruments of communication with those 
 WHO HAVE GONE BEFORE. 
 
 Their gifts are at Your Service if you Enroll in the Asso- 
 ciation. 
 
 DO YOU WISH TO BE IN DIRECT DAILY AND 
 HOURLY COMMUNICATION WITH YOUR DEPARTED 
 FRIENDS AND RELATIVES —YOU YOURSELF— WITH- 
 OUT THE AID OF ANY OTHER MEDIUM, BUT YOUR- 
 SELF? 
 
 To those who Enroll in our Association are given the 
 necessary instructions in the scientific methods that accomplish 
 this wonderful heart-comforting End.

 T WALK down the Valley of Silence 
 
 1 Down the dim, voiceless valley alone! 
 
 And I hear not the fall of a footstep 
 
 Around me, save God's and my own; 
 And the hush of my heart is as holy 
 
 As hovers where angels have flown! 
 
 LONG ago was I weary of voices 
 Long ago was I weary of noises 
 That fretted my soul with their din; 
 Long ago was I weary of places 
 
 Where I met but the Human and Sin. 
 
 I WALKED in the world with the worldly; 
 1 craved what the world never gave 
 And I said: "In the world each Ideal, 
 
 That shines like a star on life's wave, 
 Is wrecked on the shores of the Real, 
 And sleeps like a dream in a grave." 
 
 AND still did I pine for the Perfect, 
 And still found the False with the True; 
 I sought 'mid the Human for Heaven, 
 
 But caught a mere glimpse of its Blue; 
 And I wept when the clouds of the Mortal 
 Veiled even that glimpse from my view. 
 
 AND I toiled on, heart-tired of the Human, 
 And I moaned 'mid the mazes of men, 
 Till I knelt, long ago, at an altar 
 
 And I heard a Voice call me. Since then 
 I walk down the Valley of Silence 
 That lies far beyond mortal ken. 
 
 D 
 
 O you ask what I found in the Valley! 
 
 'Tis my trysting place with the Divine. 
 And I fell at the feet of the Holy, 
 
 And above me a voice said: "Be mine." 
 And there arose from the depths of my spirit 
 
 An echo "My heart shall be thine."

 DO you ask how I live in the Valley? 
 I weep and I dream and I pray. 
 
 But my tears are as sweet as the dew-drops 
 
 That fall on the roses in May; 
 And my prayer, like the perfume from Censers, 
 Ascendeth to God night and day. 
 
 IN the hush of the Valley of Silence 
 I dream all the songs that I sing; 
 And the music floats down the dim valley, 
 
 Till each finds a word for a wing, 
 That to hearts, like the Dove of the Deluge, 
 A message of Peace they may bring. 
 
 BUT far on the deep there are billows 
 That never shall break on the beach; 
 And I have heard songs in the Silence 
 
 That never shall float into speech; 
 And I have had dreams in the Valley 
 Too lofty for language to reach.

 Too pure for the touch of a word!

 Ye hearts that are harrowed by Care? 
 It lieth afar between mountains, 
 
 And God and His angels are there: 
 And one is the dark mount of Sorrow 
 And one the bright mountain of Prayer.

 From the Standpoint of History and Modern Science 
 
 HE manifold conceptions of a FUTURE LIFE formed 
 by mankind in past ages, apparently diversified, have, 
 IlLliii however, asserted the fundamental principle of 
 SURVIVAL. 
 
 It has always appeared and reappeared among the most 
 dissimilar races, under the most divergent climes. 
 
 A study of ANCIENT TRADITIONS and an examination 
 of LEGENDARY LORE demonstrates that the BELIEF in 
 SURVIVAL has influenced men from the beginning of 
 recorded history. 
 
 This BELIEF can be traced throughout the LAWS AND 
 CUSTOMS of ANCIENT peoples. 
 
 It is found clearly indicated and impressed on the 
 LEGISLATION of MODERN STATES. 
 
 It is of course the heart and soul of MODERN 
 RELIGIONS. 
 
 Mankind has been born with an INSTINCT for 
 IMMORTALITY. 
 
 Turning aside from HISTORY and examining the dis- 
 coveries of MODERN SCIENCE, we find the establishment of 
 one great LAW, which in itself, if carried to its logical con- 
 clusion, is an assertion of SURVIVAL beyond the physical 
 phenomena called DEATH. 
 
 THIS law is THE LAW OF INDESTRUCTIBILITY OF 
 MATTER AND ENERGY. 
 
 It governs all the MANIFESTATIONS of LIFE. 
 CONSCIOUS FORCE CANNOT PERISH. 
 
 The Law watches over the PRESERVATION of the 
 minutest material ATOM. 
 
 It presides over the TRANSMUTATION OF ENERGY. 
 
 It is the RECORDING PRINCIPLE of PAST EVENTS. 
 
 Science has found that the MATERIAL MOLECULES 
 are in constant process of circulation. They pass constantly 
 from one living body to another, or to the ambient medium, 
 which returns them later. 
 
 Their cycle of transmission is from Man to Plant, from 
 Plant to Animal, from Animal to Man. 
 
 WE DO NOT POSSESS the primordial elements of our 
 body, — we possess the "usufruct.' The role of the material 
 ATOM is EPHEMERAL. 
 
 Nineteen 
 
There is a PERMANENT ELEMENT maintaining the 
 existence of the body, giving it life and form. That permanent 
 Element is an ETHERIC VORTEX, the ANIMATING 
 PRINCIPLE of which is MIND. 
 
 Science has enunciated the positive existence of the 
 ELECTRON. 
 
 It is the physical expression of the ETHERIC VORTEX. 
 
 IT IS THE EXACT POINT OF CONTACT BETWEEN 
 UNIVERSAL MIND AND MATTER. 
 
 SCIENCE has not so stated, but SCIENCE has furnished

 A Few Quotations 
 
 HERE are only two reasonable attitudes which we 
 may take toward Spiritualism. Either we must recog- 
 jlii nize that there has come to us in recent years from 
 divine sources a new revelation which alters the whole aspect 
 of death and the fate of man, or else we must hold that there 
 has been an outbreak of lunacy extending over two generations 
 of mankind and two great continents. Either it is absolute 
 lunacy or a revolution which gives us as by-products an utter 
 fearlessness of death for ourselves and an immense consolation 
 when thoce who are dear to us pass behind the veil." — By SIR 
 ARTHUR CONAN DOYLE. 
 
 "Communication with the departed can be abused like any 
 other power. It can be exploited in an unworthy way for 
 selfish ends. It can be used reverently and seriously for the 
 legitimate purpose of comforting the sorrowing, helping the 
 bereaved and restoring some part of the broken link between 
 souls united in affection but separated by an apparently impas- 
 sable barrier. Anyone with a real desire to know the truth 
 need not lack evidence."— By SIR OLIVER LODGE. 
 
 "I must mention the peculiar manner in which Science 
 has analyzed its demonstrations, which may well prove the 
 imperishable part of our own ego. I speak of mediumism, and 
 spiritualism, and the discoveries of Austrian and German 
 scientists, particularly the Austrian Scientists' experiments in 
 Odic Effluvia. This Odic Fluid can set in motion a clock in a 
 sealed glass vessel; it can move a table weighing 200 pounds. 
 It may be attributed to the soul or the nerves. But it is of a 
 purely spiritual nature. It can be photographed. It cannot be 
 destroyed."— By MAURICE MAETERLINCK. 
 
 "The phenomena I am prepared to ATTEST are so 
 extraordinary, so directly opposed to the most firmly rooted 
 articles of scientific belief, amongst others the ubiquity and 
 invariable action of the force of gravitation — that, even now, 
 on recalling the details of the marvelous things I have wit- 
 nessed, there is an antagonism in my mind between reason, 
 which pronounces them scientifically impossible, and the con- 
 scious-lying witnesses when they testify against my percep- 
 tions."— By SIR WILLIAM CROOKS.

"However doubtful the individual manifestation of spirit 
 return may be, in the ensemble they form so compact a web 
 that it cannot be pierced even with the sharp scalpel of doubt." 
 —By CESARE LOMBROSO. 
 
 "Spiritism is not vague in its verdict. It is more direct and 
 confident than any religion which has faith alone to support 
 itself. Spiritism speaks in the name of science, and it intends 
 that its belief shall have the same credentials as Copernician 
 astronomy, Newtonian gravitation and Darwinian evolution. 
 There is nothing uncertain about it." — By PROF. J. H. 
 HYSLOP, PH. D. 
 
 "The first automatic writing I ever saw was forty years 
 ago. Unhesitatingly I pronounced it deceit, although it con- 
 tained vague elements of supernormal knowledge. Since then 
 I have come to see in automatic writing one example of a 
 department of human activity as vast as it is enigmatic. Every 
 sort of person is liable to it or something equivalent to it. 
 And whoever encourages it in himself finds himself personating 
 someone else, either signing what he writes by fictitious name, 
 or spelling out, by ouija board or table top, messages from the 
 departed. Our subconscious region seems, as a rule, to be dom- 
 inated either by a crazy 'will to make-believe' or by some 
 curious external force impelling us to personation. The first 
 difference between the psychical researcher and the expert per- 
 son is that the former realizes the commonness and typicality of 
 the phenomena, while the latter, less informed, thinks it so 
 rare as to be unworthy of attention. I wish to go on record for 
 commonness."- By PROF. WILLIAM JAMES. 
 
 "In all times there were methods, more or less rare, of 
 communicating with spirits; only formerly, a great mystery 
 was made of what is today a popular formula. It is thus that 
 God proposes that man should not forget that there are two 
 worlds — the one of the body, the other of the spirit." — 
 FATHER LACORDAIRE, of Paris. 
 
 "I believe there is a supernatural or Spiritual World, in 
 which HUMAN Spirits, both good and bad, live in a state of 
 consciousness. I believe that any of these spirits may, accord- 
 ing to the order of God, in the laws of their place of residence, 
 have intercourse with this world, and become visible to mor- 
 tals."— DR. ADAM CLARK, Methodist Commentator. 
 
 Tiventy-fwo 
 
"The perfect vision should see in Spiritualism the essential 
 truth of the continuity of life and the possibility of communion 
 between the two worlds. . , . The fact of a conscious inter- 
 communion between the two worlds has become an estab- 
 lished truth."— REV. DR. H. W. THOMAS, Chicago, 111. 
 
 "Human personality, like energy, is never lost. I, in my 
 inmost being, am an invisible being, holding communion with 
 invisible personalities, out of their mortal bodies." — REV. DR. 
 LYMAN ABBOTT, a former Pastor of Plymouth Church, 
 Broklyn, N. Y., and Editor of "The Christian Union." 
 
 "My conviction is that if our eyes should be opened, as 
 were those of Elisha's servant at Dothan, we should see the 
 atmosphere all about us filled with spiritual personalities. It is 
 my belief that our beloved, whom we have lost a while, are 
 nearer than we think."— REV. DR. PENTECOST. 
 
 "To me the next world is tangible, it is peopled with 
 persons and forms palpable to the appreciation, its multitudes 
 are veritables, its society natural, its language audible, its com- 
 panionships real, its loves distinct, its activities energetic, its 
 life intelligent, its glory discernible."— REV. W. H. MURRAY. 
 
 "I believe that at the moment of bodily death the soul does 
 not experience any very great change. I should not be at all 
 surprised if we find — when the great change comes — that we 
 do not know just at first that we have passed over." — REV. 
 R. A. CAMPBELL, D. D., Pastor of the City Temple, London, 
 England. 
 
 "I have no means of determining definitely what portion 
 of our Universalist preachers are Spiritualists. . . . For one, I 
 believe the spirits communicate with mortals."- — REV. G. S. 
 GOWDY. 
 
 These few quotations could be extended ad infinitum. 
 More than fifty great scientists have investigated the phe- 
 nomena of Spiritualism and have announced their conviction 
 that the phenomena is produced by the spirits of the so-called 
 dead. 
 
 The Scientific answer to the question, 'Can the Dead 
 Speak?" is — 
 
 "YES."

A Form of Clairvoyant Mediumship 
 
 AZE into the HEART of the CRYSTAL and behold the 
 PAST. 
 
 Do you desire to see and read objectively the 
 great reservoir of knowledge resident in your sub-con- 
 scious mind? 
 
 Do you wish to summon before you PICTURES bringing 
 information of the Past, the Present or of the Future? 
 
 IT CAN BE DONE. 
 
 But to do this without harm to yourself there is a certain 
 physical and mental preparation necessary. 
 
 There is also the preparation of PRAYER. 
 
 Before all there is the proper selection of the Crystal or 
 true Beryl. 
 
 The Beryl contains Oxide of Iron, a substance presenting 
 the strongest affinity for magnetism. The connecting link be- 
 tween the Crystal and the Spiritual world is Magnetism. 
 
 Magnetism is attracted to and accumulated in or around 
 the Crystal by the iron infused throughout its constitution. 
 
 Our Occult teachers assert that the Crystal should be used 
 only during the increase of the Moon, because the greater the 
 increase of the Moon the greater is the supply and accumula- 
 tion of the Lunar Magnetism in the Crystal. 
 
 The method by which the operator is placed en rapport 
 with the Crystal globe and thereby into direct contact with the 
 UNSEEN WORLD, may be partly answered as follows: 
 
 By CONCENTRATION in the Crystal of the greatest pos- 
 sible influx of Celestial or terrestrial magnetism or both. 
 
 By CONCENTRATION in the Body of the operator of un- 
 alloyed magnetism, through the PURITY of the AMATORY 
 FUNCTIONS. 
 
 By CONCENTRATION of the MIND through the Mental 
 faculty of "Concentrativeness" acting through the Brain 
 "Centre", located in the superior portion of the First Occipital 
 Convolution of the Cerebrum. 
 
 But REMEMBER there is the LAW. 
 
 IF YOUR PURPOSE BE EVIL— TERRIBLE WILL BE 
 THE REACTIVE EFFECT OF THAT EVIL PURPOSE. 
 
 The Aerial Spaces are thronged with countless intelligences 
 — celestial, good, pure, true — and Satanic, evil, impure and 
 untruthful. 
 
 The possession of the latter is FORCE. 
 
 T<wenty-eight 
 
The possession of the former is POWER. 
 
 To reach the GOOD ONES, THE HEART OF THE 
 GAZER MUST CORRESPOND. 
 
 We have lifted a corner of the veil for your information. 
 
 It is our purpose to give you a glimpse of the wonderful 
 powers you will attain should you join the LIVE FOREVER 
 FOLK ASSOCIATION. 
 
 A special ESOTERIC MASTER will take charge of your 
 education and lead you safely past the dangers the NOVICE 
 usually encounters when he attempts, alone and uninstructed, 
 to penetrate into the MARVELOUS OCCULT WORLD in his 
 search for POWER and SUCCESS.

 AGNETISM is the invisible Element of SUPREME 
 SOUL FORCE. 
 
 tLH^O Thoroughly understood and scientifically applied, 
 
 it is the KEY of SUCCESS in our dealings with the world. 
 
 Man is not a Creature of Circumstances. If he will assert 
 his Psychic or Magnetic possibilities he will become MASTER 
 of EVENTS. 
 
 This FORCE is latent in every HUMAN SOUL. 
 
 It is a SACRED GIFT. It is a PRICELESS JEWEL. It 
 is a SOUL ESSENCE which can be concentrated, controlled, 
 projected, and imparted far away into space. 
 
 It is the High and Sacred Power of the Microcosmical 
 Spirit. It produces most potent procreations. 
 
 The pregnant woman stamping on her offspring the physi- 
 cal replica of a thing greatly desired during gestation, is but an 
 illustration of the MAGNETIC principle in NATURE operating 
 through the medium of DESIRE. 
 
 MAGNETISM is the SYMPATHETIC PRINCIPLE in 
 NATURE. 
 
 It is the Occult force, or sympathetic power, which causes 
 the Iron to approach the Magnet, — -the Waters to approach the 
 Luminaries — the Planets to revolve around the Sun — that 
 causes the needle to point to the Earth's Magnetic pole — it is 
 the Occult sympathy affecting the unborn foetus in the womb, 
 producing marks, signs, images, corresponding to the mother's 
 disposition, desire or fear — it is the Magnetic Affinity between 
 Individuals and Matter inducing rats to desert a sinking ship — 
 ants to quit their nests transporting their young before an inun- 
 dation — dogs to foretell disaster and death by mournful 
 howlings. 
 
 All instinct, intuition and mental impressions are the direct 
 result of this Magnetic or Occult Sympathy. 
 
 MAGNETISM is the SECRET of FASCINATION. 
 
 Fascination is sometimes called Occult Binding, — The 
 "binding" of a person into Love, Hatred, Sickness or Health. 
 
 You may become bewitched by looking directly into the 
 eyes of those who bewitch or fascinate. Your eyes beng recip- 
 rocally bent magnetically one upon the other, the spirit or mag- 
 netism overcomes and fascinates by becoming joined to the 
 other. Then strong ligations are made, and most violent love 
 and passions are aroused. 
 
 Thirty-one 
 
VITAL MAGNETISM is a subtle intangible force of mar- 
 velous potency. 
 
 Once understood and you are in possession of that Strange 
 power by which you can exert an irresistible influence over 
 people, who are entirely unconscious of the fact that you are 
 throwing a hypnotic condition of fascination around them. 
 
 In every sphere of life the cultivation and development 
 of Magnetic qualities are of the highest importance. 
 
 This Magical power is best stirred into action by intense 
 concentration and earnest intention. 
 
 It is most potent when linked with the Spoken Word. 
 
 Again we have lifted a corner of the VEIL for your in- 
 formation. 
 
 Do you wish to possess the power to take possession of 
 the faculties and bind or attract those things you most desire 
 or delight in? 
 
 Should you join the LIVE FOREVER FOLK ASSOCIA- 
 TION a Special Esoteric Teacher, a MASTER of MAGNETIC 
 CONTROL will instruct you in the development of this FORCE 
 latent in every HUMAN SOUL. 
 
 But REMEMBER the LAW. 
 
 IF YOUR PURPOSE BE EVIL— TERRIBLE WILL BE 
 THE REACTIVE EFFECT OF THAT EVIL PURPOSE.

 INCE the beginning of recorded time, mankind has ever 
 striven to express in tangible form the vaguely appre- 
 hended FORCES and POWERS, whose full expres- 
 sion remains a functioning of the UNSEEN UNIVERSE. 
 
 Hence his use of Talismans — Amulets — and Zodiacal 
 Gems. 
 
 Naturally in his effort to express something of the intangi- 
 ble FORCES of which he was dimly conscious he took as his 
 Symbol the SUN, his IMAGINATION qualifying it as an em- 
 bodiment of the loftiest aspirations of his SEEKING SOUL. 
 
 The first talisman used by primitive man took the form of 
 the SOLAR DISK, crudely scratched on bone or metal, or 
 painted on the body to attract the benefits and good fortune it 
 represented. 
 
 The oldest symbol of the SUN is the SWASTIKA. The 
 Sanskrit derivation of the word, SU, good, ASTI, being, is in 
 full accord with its use by every known civilization to attract 
 GOOD or WELL BEING. 
 
 The next oldest SUN-SYMBOL is the coveted talisman 
 known as the SCARAB, the sacred beetle of Egypt. The pecu- 
 liar maternal functioning of the insect caused it to be regarded 
 as a perfect SYMBOL of CREATION. 
 
 Another SUN-SYMBOL of great antiquity is the "POINT 
 WITHIN THE CIRCLE" used by warriors as protection against 
 enemies and as a magnetic centralization of SUCCESS. 
 
 Our OCCULT TEACHERS assert that the planets of our 
 SOLAR SYSTEM absorb and dispense the Sun's rays, adding a 
 subtle FORCE of their own which they reflect to the Earth, and 
 that Talismans made under beneficient planetary aspects of 
 the METAL or GEM corresponding to the planet most favor- 
 ably placed in the Natal Chart, form a channel through which 
 these vibrations are transmitted to the WEARER. 
 
 The suitabilitv of GEMS as a medium for the transmission 
 of ASTRAL FORCES has been recognized by ADEPTS for 
 thousands of years. They carry with them spiritual and mate- 
 rial powers, medicinal and curative qualities. 
 
 Our OCCULT TEACHERS warn us in selecting gems to 
 avoid stones known to have been associated with crime and 
 persons of vicious dispositions. 
 
 Thirty-three 
 
PRECIOUS STONES are very sensitive to the mental and 
 physical influences of the wearers. Jewels which have been 
 the cause of crime absorb the effect of all the passions which 
 prompted the crime and retain and radiate an evil influence for 
 centuries. 
 
 The' PRINCIPLE of VIBRATION is the Key to the magi- 
 cal powers inherent in Amulets and Talismans. 
 
 Among all the gems the Diamond is pre-eminent for its 
 Occult Power. It should never be worn on the right side. Its 
 governing planet is Mars. 
 
 The Ruby has terrific abysses of meaning. 
 
 The Bloodstone has great curative properties. 
 
 Should you join the LIVE FOREVER FOLK ASSOCIA- 
 TION you will be trained by a SPECIAL ESOTERIC 
 TEACHER to conscious functioning on super-physical levels, 
 and you will then be able to appreciate and use to your own 
 protection the magnetic influences inherent in precious stones, 
 astrologcally selected, as well as making use of the effect they 
 have in the production of certain phases of PSYCHIC PHE- 
 NOMENA.

 HE Art or Science of Magic and Sorcery has been prac- 
 tically lost in the maelstrom of Modern Civilizataion. 
 As mankind has degenerated into the unspiritual 
 and material, the ability to comprehend the transcendent power 
 of the Spirit has become atrophied by disuse. 
 
 The great majority today practically deny the existence 
 of anything that transcends the perception of the physical 
 senses. 
 
 The common meaning attached to the word "Magic" is 
 that of sleight of hand performances. 
 
 A certain class, still wallowing in the superstitions of the 
 Dark Ages, regard it as a process of "Conjuring With the 
 Devil" or, on the other hand, utilizing for evil purposes, the 
 malign energies of Earth-bound spirits of the Dead. 
 
 As a matter of fact, true Magic is the greatest of Natural 
 Sciences. 
 
 It includes an exact Knowledge of Nature both VISIBLE 
 and INVISIBLE. 
 
 It is a SCIENCE because it comprehends an assemblage of 
 Established FACTS and proven PROCESSES. 
 
 It is an ART for the reason that facility of performance 
 must be acquired by practical experience. 
 
 The Science of Magic is the knowledge of the true nature 
 of the visible and invisible elements that compose the Macro- 
 cosm and the Microcosm. 
 
 The Art of MAGIC is the process of directing and employ- 
 ing the INVISIBLE POWERS of NATURE. 
 
 The acquirement of Magical Experience is the acquirement 
 of Wisdom. 
 
 Since, therefore, the Science and Art of Magic is a knowl- 
 edge and employment of the Invisible Powers in Nature, it is 
 obvious that its Essence is essentially Spiritual. 
 
 Hence our enunciaton of the First Fundamental Principle 
 for the information and guidance of the Student. 
 
 Since Magic is the practical employment of Spiritual 
 powers directed to an End, it is evidently impossible to utilize 
 and employ those powers unless the Operator has awakened to 
 and developed his own Spirituality. 
 
 To the Magus all things Hidden are Revealed. 
 
 The developed Master of Magic working in conjunction 
 with the "Great Three"— FAITH, IMAGINATION, WILL— 
 exercises the POWERS of the MOST HIGH.

Behold! God Created Man in His Image and Likeness. 
 
 The Magus is the Omega of that Creation. 
 
 Should you join THE LIVE FOREVER FOLK ASSO- 
 CIATION you will be privileged, should you so desire, to apply 
 for and receive a special course in Magic and Sorcery providing 
 the Magus is satisfied that this knowledge WILL NOT BE 
 MISUSED.

 HE understanding of Dreams necessitates an under- 
 standing of the Dreamer and the mechanism of Con- 
 Hig sciousness through which he functions. 
 
 Between SLEEP and DEATH there is a distinction but 
 very little difference. 
 
 SLEEP represents a TEMPORARY separation of the 
 Spiritual Body from the Physical. 
 
 DEATH represents a PERMANENT separation of the 
 Spiritual Body from the Physical. 
 
 During sleep the EGO functions in its SPIRITUAL 
 vehicle and operates on super-physical planes. 
 
 When the Sleeper returns to the Physical Body the awak- 
 ening on the Physical Plane takes place. 
 
 Sometimes we have memories, and these memories we 
 call DREAMS. 
 
 Dreams are divided into two classes. 
 
 The CHAOTIC and FANTASTIC, representing the auto- 
 matic activity of the physical brain and its etheric counterpart 
 re-enacting illogically the scenes representing the recent opera- 
 tion of its waking consciousness. 
 
 The LOGICAL and SEQUENTIAL, representing the ac- 
 tivities of the EGO functioning through the Spiritual body on 
 super-physical planes. 
 
 The first are comparatively unimportant except from a 
 psycho-analytical standpoint. 
 
 The second are of supreme importance and may be sub- 
 divided into three classes : 
 
 1 st — Memories of actual experiences, of things said and 
 done, in the spiritual body while the physical body is asleep. 
 Memories of renewal of intercourse with the mis-called DEAD. 
 
 2nd— Subject matter the HIGHER SELF, the SUPREME 
 EGO, is endeavoring to impress upon the lower consciousness, 
 so firmly as to be remembered on awakening. 
 
 3rd — Premonition. Efforts of the EGO to impress on the 
 brain consciousness of some coming event either of trivial or 
 vital importance. 
 
 Should you join THE LIVE FOREVER FOLK ASSOCIA- 
 TION a SPECIAL ESOTERIC MASTER will, if you so desire, 
 interpret your Dreams and teach you to make use of them to 
 your comfort and happiness. Dream Memories may be culti- 
 vated, but it is important to know the DANGER of the SNAP- 
 PING of the SILVER CORD.

 OH, Thou Eternal One: Whose presence bright 
 All space doth occupy, all motion guide; 
 Unchanged through Time's all devasting flight, 
 
 Thou only God, there is no God beside, 
 Being above all beings: Mighty One, 
 
 Whom none can comprehend and none explore; 
 Who fill'st existence with Thyself alone; 
 
 Embracing all, supporting, ruling o'er, 
 Being we call God, Life, Truth, Love and more. 
 
 IN its sublime research, Philosophy 
 May measure out the ocean deep, may count 
 The sands or the sun's rays, but God, for Thee, 
 
 There is no weight nor measure; none can mount 
 Up to Thy mysteries. Reason's brightest spark, 
 
 Though kindled by Thy light, in vain would try 
 To place Thy counsels, groping in the dark; 
 
 And thought is lost ere thought can soar so high. 
 Even like past moments in eternity. 
 
 THOU from primeval nothingness, didst not call 
 First chaos, then existence, Lord: on Thee 
 Eternity had its foundation all 
 
 Spring forth from Thee, of Light, Joy and 
 Harmony. 
 Sole origin, all life, all beauty Thine. 
 
 Thy word created all, and doth create; 
 Thy splendor fills all space with rays divine, 
 
 Thou art, and wert, and shall be: Glorious Great: 
 Life giving, life sustaining potentate. 
 
 THY chains the unmeasured universe surround, 
 Upheld by Thee, by Thee inspired with 
 breath; 
 Thou the beginning with the end has bound, 
 
 And with life divine hath conquered death; 
 As sparks mount upward from the fiery blaze, 
 
 So suns are born, so worlds spring forth from 
 Thee; 
 And as the spangles in the sunny rays 
 
 Shine round the silver snow, the pageantry 
 Of Heaven's bright army glitters in Thy praise.

 A MILLION torches lighted by Thy hand 
 Wander unwearied through the blue abyss; 
 They own Thy power, accomplish Thy command, 
 
 All gay with life, all eloquent with bliss. 
 What shall we call them? Piles of crystal light, 
 
 A glorious company of golden streams, 
 Lamps of Celestial ether, burning bright, 
 
 Suns lighting systems with their joyful beams, 
 But thou to these art as the noon to night. 
 
 YES: as a drop of water in the sea 
 All this magnificence in Thee is lost; 
 What are ten thousand worlds compared with 
 
 The

 And what am I then? 
 host, 
 Though multiplied by myriads, and arrayed 
 
 In all the glory of sublimest thought, 
 Is but an atom in the balance; weighed 
 
 Against Thy greatness is a cipher brought 
 Against Infinity: Oh, what am I then? Naught. 
 
 NO: for the effluence of Thy light divine 
 Pervading worlds, hath reached my bosom 
 Yes: in my spirit doth Thy Spirit shine, 
 
 As shines the sunbeam in a drop of dew. 
 Naught? I live, and on Hope's pinions fly 
 
 Eager toward Thy presence: for in Thee 
 I live and breathe and dwell; aspiring high, 
 
 Even to the throne of Thy divinity. 
 I am, O God: And surely Thou must be! 
 
 THOU art; directing guiding all, Thou art! 
 Direct my understanding, then, to Thee; 
 to; 
 Control my spirit, guide my wandering heart; 
 
 Though but an atom 'midst immensity, 
 Still I am something, fashioned by Thy hand! 
 
 I hold a middle rank 'twixt Heaven and Earth, 
 On the vast verge of mortal being stand, 
 
 Close to the realms where angels have their 
 birth; 
 just on the boundaries of the spirit land.

 THE chain of being is complete in me; 
 In me is matter's last gradation lost. 
 And the next step in spirit-Deity! 
 
 I command the lightning, I am more than dust! 
 A monarch and a slave; a worm, a god! 
 
 Whence came I here? And how so marvelously 
 Constructed and conceived? Unknown this clod 
 
 Lives surely through some higher energy; 
 For from itself alone it could not be. 
 
 CREATOR, yes! Thy wisdom and Thy word 
 Created me! Thou source of life and good! 
 Thou spirit of my spirit, and my Lord! 
 
 Thy Light, Thy Love, in their bright plentitude 
 Filled me with an immortal soul, to spring 
 
 Over the abyss of death, and bade it wear 
 The garments of eternal day, and wing 
 
 Its Heavenly flight beyond this little sphere, 
 Even to its Source, to Thee, its author there. 
 
 THOUGHTS ineffable! O vision blest ! 
 Though worthless our conceptions all of 
 Thee, 
 Yet shall Thy shadowed image fill our breast, 
 
 And waft its homage to Thy Deity. 
 God! thus alone my lonely thoughts can soar; 
 
 Thus seek Thy presence, being wise and good! 
 'Midst Thy vast works admire, obey, adore; 
 
 And when the tongue is eloquent no more, 
 The soul shall speak in tears of gratitude.

 From 
 
 The Great Work in Twelve Lessons Entitled, 
 
 "NUMEROLOGY" 
 
 by 
 
 A Seer of the College of The Ancients 
 
 HE Science of Numerology is the Key to the Principle 
 of the Universe. 
 The proper definition of the word "Numerology" is: 
 
 "The Science of numbers applied to the interpretation of 
 any name, word or combination of words that convey a knowl- 
 edge of anything, person, place or experience." 
 
 By a thorough understanding of the Science of Numerol- 
 ogy in the Four Basic Principles one is enabled to correctly de- 
 fine and understand the character, temperament, disposition and 
 ambition of any human being shown by the date of their birth, 
 place of Residence and Name they use. This also enables one 
 to know the Business or Occupation which engaged in will 
 bring unlimited Success. Every experience relating to one's 
 past and the tendencies toward the future are shown in the 
 number of the individual's name. 
 
 It would require a lengthy description to embody all the 
 angles of this wonderful newly discovered Ancient Secret, 
 which is only hinted at in the encyclopedias, and which always 
 have held out hope that it would be rediscovered. 
 
 Our Esoteric Master of Numerology proves every state- 
 ment by the Science of Numerology and uses the names and 
 birthdays of those members of the Live Forever Folk for his 
 examples. There is no charge made should he select your name 
 and define your fortune. You may have a wonderful name, 
 but be living in the wrong locality to get success. These ques- 
 tions are all settled by this science — if you are a member of the 
 Live Forever Folk. 
 
 In beginning this treatise on the Science of Numerology 
 and endeavoring to set forth rules for its application to all prob- 
 lems of life, we will give our reason for interpreting the value 
 of certain digits from one to nine and words that are represented 
 by a single digit, which will hereafter be referred to as the vibra- 
 tion of the word. We mean that each word has, when properly 
 
 Sixty-nine 
 
reduced to a single digit, a weight or power or vibratory force 
 or expression that results in sound and is preceded or followed 
 by a mental vision of the thing named or numbered. 
 
 Now, take the alphabet and divide it in the following man- 
 ner to get the numerical value of each letter: 
 
 "KABALA TABLE" 
 
 123456789 
 ABCDEFGHI 
 JKLMNOPQR 
 STUVWXYZ& 
 
 The following rules must be observed very carefully: 
 
 FOUR BASIC PRINCIPLES OF NUMERICAL 
 PSYCHOLOGY 
 
 1 . Gross Volume of a Word : The total number of sym- 
 bols or digits of which it is composed. The single digit is placed 
 over the word. 
 
 4 
 
 Example: "Word" 
 
 2. Atomic Weight of a Word: Is the total or final digit 
 after the figures under each letter have been added together 
 until one digit remains, thus: 
 
 Examle : "Word' ' 
 
 5694 equal 24 equal 6 — 
 
 the atomic weight of "Word" is six. 
 
 3. Combined Power of a Word: The combined power 
 of a word is found by adding the Gross Volume Digit and the 
 Atomic Weight Digit together, thus: 
 
 4 
 Example : ' 'Word' ' 
 5694 
 24 
 6 — plus 4 equals 1 or — 
 
 the combined power of the word 
 is therefore 1 . 
 
 4. Origin and Destiny: Is the total number of figures 
 or digits of which the whole word is composed and is found by 
 
 Sevtnty 
 
counting the number of figures you have used in the deduc- 
 tion, thus: 
 
 4 
 Example: "Word" 
 5694 
 
 24 
 6 
 10 
 Now start and count them, 456942461 
 Thus you have used 1 digits and that, when added, make 
 
 I, which is the Origin and Destiny of "Word." 
 
 There is but one "Principle." 
 
 Principle is the foundation of all laws. 
 
 Principle always was and always will be. 
 
 Principle is primarily divided into five great heads. They 
 are: Mineral, Vegetable, Animal, Human, Spirit. 
 
 Principle manifests individuality in each of these kingdoms 
 but expresses itself literally in many absolute Laws. 
 
 Principle itself is singular, having no sub-expressions or 
 manifestations, it never changes or fluctuates, it is always the 
 same. All laws spring from the one principle and change with 
 the changing evolution of Nature, but the Principle never 
 changes, even with the ravages of time. Principle is Infinite: 
 Laws are Absolute. 
 
 Principle is the basic Truth of all things, times, and Uni- 
 versal Manifestations of action or re-action.

 through the nerve force.

Memory of Experience is Knowledge. 
 
 Knowledge wisely applied is Power. 
 
 Power is Controlled Vibration. 
 
 Vibration is Omnipotent. 
 
 All signs and symbols are Vibratory. 
 
 Colors are the Vibrations of the Elements. 
 
 Elements are Materialized Thoughts. 
 
 Thought is Destiny. 
 
 Destiny is Atonement with God. 
 
 Man made in Gods image is Spiritual — expressing the will 
 of God in material form — in touch with God through the Ner- 
 vous System. 
 
 The Nerves of the system receive the vibration . The Brain 
 records it in Memory, and the Spiritual Comprehension of man 
 classifies it and it is then Wisdom. "Ne plus Ultra." 
 
 We reach the Spiritual Comprehension, seat of Wisdom,

 It has been said of Numerology: It holds the secret of 
 "That something" — -What are we? Where did we come from? 
 What are we here for? Where do we go from here? 
 
 Anyone knows the answer to the first question — "What 
 are we?" — and will readily tell you we are human beings. That 
 is correct. But what is a human being? "A man made in 
 God's image." Yes, that is right. Formed of "dust of the 
 earth" that we might have physical power. A body of sub- 
 stance enclosing the Spiritual Ego, whose intelligence directs 
 the actions of the body, both consciously and unconsciously. 
 There are two sets of muscles in the body. One is called volun- 
 tary muscles, those we consciously bring into action, and the 
 involuntary muscles, those over which the human mind has no 
 control. 
 
 The Creator of this wonderful human machine called our 
 body is the Spirit, the Soul replenishes the structure and Ego 
 mind is master of the tabernacle, which came from God and will 
 return unto God. 
 
 Seventy-two 
 
This chapter has to do with Human Temperament, as de- 
 fined by the Science of Numerology. 
 
 The word temperament comes from the Latin and signifies 
 a mixture or arrangement of qualities or parts. The Apostle 
 Paul speaks of the body being "tempered together." In 
 mechanics the expression is common. A mason speaks of 
 tempering mortar, the machinist speaks of tempering steel; a 
 good or proper temper meaning a mixture or blending of prop- 
 erties in proper proportion, so that the effect desired shall be 
 good. Temperament as applied to the human race is a proper 
 mixture development and harmonizing of the physical elements 
 that constitute his being or body. 
 
 In ancient times there were four primary components of 
 the body. First those who had a great abundance of blood, 
 round face and smiling countenance were said to be "Sanguine." 
 If on the other hand they were thin and solemn faced they 
 were called "Phlegmatic." If one had a moderately round face 
 and could smile and weep equally by turn, were emotional and 
 easily excited, they were called "Choleric," and if they never 
 smiled and were thin and despondent they were called "Melan- 
 cholic." 
 
 Now, as our likes and dislikes are dependent upon our 
 temperament, so our abilities and lack of mechanical skill are 
 likewise traceable to the temperament of the individual. The 
 great aim of Nature seems to be to so blend the elements of 
 the physical organism and bring them to a perfect functioning 
 at the will of the soul that possesses them. When this condi- 
 tion is reached it is called Poise, and then there is not found a 
 trace of temperaments of any one of those here designated, but 
 one possessed of poise is rather looked upon as a super-being. 
 Perfection in temperament is the great aim of the stock breeder, 
 but is almost overlooked by the human race progenitors. When 
 a few years ago the world was startled by the craze for Human 
 Eugenics it looked very much as though something big would 
 develop, but the sensation of a season has died down until now 
 one seldom hears the word Eugenics mentioned. 
 
 Go where we will we find the most successful business men 
 and the shrewdest salesmen are students of human tempera- 
 ments, and they can tell at a glance the immediate chances of 
 being able to sell to their prospect. If they are advanced in the 
 science of Physiognomy they know just how to approach their 
 subject. They know the leads that may be advanced with 
 safety, they know when to tell a story and what kind of a yarn 
 it must be to please their prospective customer. 
 
 Seventy-three 
 
So we make the statement without fear of contradiction 
 that there is not a more important science in the world than 
 that here set forth: "How to Read the Human Name" by the 
 number of the soul. 
 
 In using the word Temper, soft or hard, sharp or dull, we 
 wish our readers to understand that in this Science of Numer- 
 ology we deal with each of the words we use in their final 
 analysis. So this word temper leads us to the knowledge that 
 temper gives power. Now observe the word :

 — Note

 Now refer to the abbreviated foregoing statement: "The 
 soul replenishes," or we might say builds, the body. In other 
 words, it mixes the elements that compose our flesh body. So 
 temper then is the result of the Ego intelligence blending these 
 various vibratory etheric substances called foods into what we 
 call Spiritual, Mental or Physical Dispositions. Temper and 
 Disposition are identical words in Atomic Weight, per se.

 Will in gross volume is four, denoting that it is in the 
 mind; atomic weight of Will is two, showing that it is Ion 
 Vibration ; the Combined Power is Six. 
 
 There are nine Dispositions or Temperaments. Tempera- 
 ments are of the Ego, but Dispositions are of the Spirit. As 
 the Spirit wills the Ego orders and the Mind directs and the Body 
 acts. And all action is by word. 
 
 Seventy-four 
 
As there are only four perfect numbers between 1 and 
 10,000, so there are only four perfect dispositions or tempera- 
 ments in ten thousand people. The proportion holds good 
 throughout all nature. 
 
 Now the perfect number between one and ten is 6. The 
 other one between ten and one hundred is 28 ; the one between 
 100 and 1,000 is 496, and the one between 1,000 and 10,000 
 is 8128. 
 
 A perfect number is a number that the sum of its divisors 
 other than itself equals the number. 
 
 For instance: 6 is a perfect number because the sum of 
 its divisors other than itcelf equals 6 — 6 equals 1 plus 2 plus 3 
 equals 6; 28 in like manner — 28 equals 1 plus 2 plus 3 plus 7 
 plus 1 4 equals 28. 
 
 The three divisions of numbers and names of people are 
 called Abundant, Deficient and Perfect. Perfect number is 6 
 and 28 ; Abundant number is 1 2 and 24 ; Deficient number 
 is 8 and 1 4. The Perfect are between Excess and Deficiency 
 as consonant sound between acuter and graver sounds. These 
 are the names of persons, and such persons' dispositions are 
 interpreted from the sound of their name, which sound is 
 produced by the number of the name, and the number of the 
 name holds the secret of the character and power of the indi- 
 vidual bearing that name. The four perfect numbers, you will 
 notice, have the property of ending alternately in 6 and 8. 
 
 Gross Volume of a name is what the person is as a whole; 
 it is the Temperamental number. 
 
 Atomic Weight of a person's name is an index to their 
 Desires and Ambitions. 
 
 Combined Power of a person's name foretells whether the 
 Ambitions and Desires will be realized. 
 
 Origin and Destiny of the name tells what the Desires and 
 Ambitions of the person should be if they would be perfect — 
 Health, Happiness, Finances.

Your number of Destiny may be good for success though

 Explanation 
 
 Everyone should know the number to which his occupa- 
 tion must vibrate and the number of his true mate. 
 
 Once you get the Soul, or Key number you may learn 
 other things of vital importance. Since all things manifest 
 according to the law of numbers, or vibration, everything can 
 be made to respond to these laws. For numbers are not arbi- 
 trary symbols, but constitute a sacred science, its symbols being 
 generated by the manifestation of all nature and the cosmos 
 itself. Know the keynote of that which you desire, harmonize 
 yourself with it, and Health and Success are yours. 
 
 Mathematics is the only exact science. 
 
 Each number from 1 to 9, inclusive, has certain moral 
 values and certain characteristics under this system of Truth. 
 
 No. 9 Is Highest 
 
 The alphabet as shown on another page of this article is 
 divided in a manner so as to bring forth the numerical value of 
 each letter. 
 
 Each word must be reduced to its lowest numeral. For 
 instance: If your first name is James, its numbers are 1 1451, 
 or, added together, 12; or, again, added together, 3. This is 
 the method of obtaining your Personality number, and the full 
 christened name must be used. 
 
 President Harding's name, for instance: 
 
 Warren Gamal iel Harding 
 519955 71413953 8194957 
 
 34 33 43 
 
 7 6 7 
 
 20 
 
 His Personality number is 2. 
 
 The Soul number is obtained by adding the entire number 
 of digits comprising the month, day of month and year born in. 
 For instance: President Harding was born 11/2/1856, and 
 
 Seventy-six 
 
when added together results in 24, or 6. Therefore, 6 is his 
 Soul number. 
 
 The Residence number is obtained by adding the numbers 
 representing the letters in the name of the town and state where 
 one may reside. For instance: 
 
 Washington 
 5 118 9 5 7 2 6 5 
 
 Added, 13; reduced, 4. 
 
 The Occupation number is obtained by the same method. 
 Thus : 
 
 President of the United States 
 795194552 66 285 359254 121251 
 
 Added, 114; reduced, 6. 
 
 It is thus arranged under a four-fold proposition, and the 
 total of the four results in 1 8, or, adding the 1 and 8, gives 9. 
 Therfore, the vibration brings forth world-wide satisfaction. 
 See Destiny numbers previously given. 
 
 When you find the numbers given by your birth date, 
 your name and the town and state you live in, you can test the 
 suitability of your occupation. If its number brings the total 
 that can be reduced to 9, it is the work for you. If not, you 
 are engaged in the wrong occupation or the wrong place, and 
 can find a better position or place of residence. 
 
 To find the number of your soul mate, find your key 
 number from the date of your birth, and then search for an 
 affinity whose key number added to yours will make 1 0, or, 
 reduced, the numeral 1 . 
 
 This is the perfect human life. 
 
 The numbers 3 — 6, or 9, occurring in the Personality 
 number and Soul number bring forth the vibrations favorable 
 to music, the arts and oratory. 
 
 1 — 4 — 8 Pioneering, Building and Mechanics. 
 
 2 — 5 — 7 Diplomacy, Chemistry and Theory. 
 
 In a comparison with any other name, the atomic weight 
 of which is in value the same as the Origin and Destiny of the 
 name that is compared, there is always a close relationship to 
 each other. 
 
 If the atomic weights are of similar value, it of course 
 indicates the names are of necessity under the same vibrations. 
 The Gross Volume and the Origin and Destiny being similar 
 in value brings forth a close relationship. This discloses the 
 law of creation and is of vital interest to humanity.

 Thou art an Unimaginable Potency! 
 
 Thou Greatest Motion and yet maintainest the Equilibrium 
 of all things terrestial and celestial. 
 
 Thou art a Voice out of the Beyond! 
 
 Distance disappears before Thy ever-reaching Spirit. 
 
 Thou holdest the Universe together and for Thee there is 
 no word expressing Time. 
 
 Thou art a Voice from the Space Caverns of the Universe, 
 and all created things are but the Echoes of Thy whispered 
 Thought. 
 
 Thou art a Voice that carriest the history of the Past into 
 the Present. 
 
 For Thee there is no Past, no Future. 
 
 Thou art the Timeless One, connecting and covering the 
 Past, Present and Future. 
 
 Past, Present, Future! Father, Son and Holy Ghost. 
 
 GOD. 
 
 And yet is there not SOMETHING farther out in those 
 fathomless Caverns, beyond the suns and vortices of suns, 
 beyond the infinitely distant star mists, beyond the silent, unre- 
 solved nebulae, beyond Mind Imaginings, from which even 
 Thou comest! FOR HOW COULD NOTHINGNESS HAVE 
 FORMULATED ITSELF INTO A VOICE? 
 
 The Suns and Universe of Suns are perhaps only vacant 
 points in the depths of an ALL PERVADING ENTITY in 
 which EVEN THYSELF dost exist as a momentary Echo, des- 
 tined eventually to fade away in the interstellar expanse outside 
 and beyond the Celestial Sphere, where disturbances disappear, 
 
 matter and gravitation die; where all is pure, quiescent, 
 
 peaceful, dark — The Womb of Creation.

 There is a Timeless Point in Time. 
 
 There is a critical point of INSTANTANEOUSNESS that 
 partakes not of the First Second, nor a fraction of a fraction of 
 the First Second. 
 
 That Timeless Point in Time is — Eternity. 
 
 We die. 
 
 The Soul separates from the Body. 
 
 The Process of separation represents a duration of Time. 
 
 The Point of Liberation is Instantaneous. 
 
 Death therefore at the Point of Liberation ushers the 
 separating Spirit into — Eternity. 
 
 At that critical point there is neither Beginning nor End. 
 
 There occurs an annihilation of Space and Time. 
 
 Crushed into this limitless Conception of the Critical Point 
 is the Eternity of Happiness that represents Heaven and the 
 Eternity of Anguish that represents Hell. 
 
 At that spaceless, timeless point where motion ceases, the 
 Soul of man emits a Cry. 
 
 IT IS THE SNAPPING SCREAM OF THE WHIP-LASH 
 OF DEATH. 
 
 It is the Electric, Spaceless, Timeless, Instantaneous Sever- 
 ance of the Silver Cord. 
 
 Beware of the Eternity that follows on the heels of Evil 
 Living. 
 
 It is a Vortex of Inconceivable Anguish. 
 
 IT IS— HELL!

 "Srutlf Wttljm" 
 
 "Truth is within ourselves; it 
 
 takes no rise 
 From outward things, whate'er 
 
 you may believe, 
 There is an inmost center within 
 
 us all, 
 Where Truth abides in fullness; 
 
 and around, 
 Wall upon wall, the gross flesh 
 
 hems it in, 
 This perfect, clear perception . 
 
 And to know, 
 
 Rather consists in opening out a 
 
 way 
 Whence the imprisoned splendor 
 
 may escape 
 Than in effecting entry for a 
 
 light 
 Supposed to be without."
