The great category of medicines of the doctors is a farce and there is no mysterious "selective affinity" for certain drugs, but all elements have either one of two actions--a stimulating process or a refrigerating or embalming process, some remedies go to the liver and counteract the embalming action and aid the flow of bile and some may be of a resinous nature and saponify in the alkalies of the intestines and aid their action.
It will be seen that the book simplifies medicine to TWO PRINCIPLES, one counteracting the other like heat and cold but these actions are unnatural and undesirable; it is only by avoiding discrepancies and ameliorations that we follow Nature.
The book explains that the differentations and forms in the universe are the results of two forces, the curved force and the straight force, just the same as every word in English language is made up of letters having only two kinds of lines, the straight and the curved lines. The book tells just what occurs in the life cells and protoplasm; this is a remarkable discovery and to show how much so, we quote from Le Bon the great Scientist, he says: "THE SCHOLAR CAPABLE OF SOLVING BY HIS INTELLIGENCE THE PROBLEMS SOLVED EVERY MOMENT BY THE CELLS OF THE LOWEST CREATURE WOULD BE SO MUCH HIGHER THAN OTHER MEN THAT HE MIGHT BE CONSIDERED BY THEM AS A GOD." (From EVOLUTION OF FORCES, p. 363).
Haeckel declared that a cell did not go to the bottom of the secret of life and that we must allow that the naked protoplasm itself held the secret of life, this book proves that protoplasm is composed of molecules with centers of sulphur and phosphorus which conformed into WHITE SPARKS by the alternations of heat and cold, the SPARKS contain spirit and each spark has a quiet center or consciousness and a potential of radiation of force.
This book is terse and compact, is printed on good paper and bound with red cloth with gold letters.

This work is an exposition of a NEW PHILOSOPHY, and although it has been taught to a number of highly educated men,--in a technical way, we have had many suggestions made to us to publish a work which the "work-a-day" people can understand,--some have said: "It is too far above me," and "why don't you explain it so everybody may understand it."
