atus of the individual brain, decides its products, the character
of its brain children. Thoughts that are not caught, clung to, and
crystallized, through the action of the external brain can have no
place in the external life of this world, although they do have their
power and influence in the incorporate, silent, ever-working world of
cause.

The mind digs deep to bring forth the real.

The soul dreads the edicts of its ignorant prototypes. The ego comes
forward with its battle-axe, and the spirit rejoices and exults. Body,
Soul, and Spirit; Nature's trinity.

As spirit _per se_, has no entity, and only evolves individuality
through its relationship with matter, and has no other conscious
expression, the so-long-talked-of "fall of man" was not a fall
downward, but a process upward, necessary to his being, to his
existence as man.

UNFOLDMENT.

The persistence of the human soul after physical death proves only that
it is a candidate for immortality. The race is just begun. The path
that leads onward to the eternal heights is so long, so beset with
difficulties, with pains and penalties, losses and crosses, and all the
paraphernalia of evolution and growth that the stoutest heart, the
strongest will would fail to respond to the call to "come up higher,"
were one to at once become aware of what inevitably lay before him.
When any individual soul has dwelt long enough in the spirit realm to
begin to feel the unrest of the law of eternal progress, he senses the
law of reincarnation, and his earthly home draws him by attraction. He
is preferred the cup of "renunciation," and forgetfulness, and is shown
the way to his next embodiment.

INVENTIONS.

The inspired thinker sends out a thought to the world, it is taken up
and passed through other brains, it becomes distorted or is recognized
by them in its integrity according to the caliber of mind, or the
idiosyncrasies of the one representing it. A thought or idea, once
given to the world, becomes common property. It is not possible to put
on mortgages or limit the use that may be made of it, or how it may be
made to bring in returns to commercially-inspired minds. A woman
devised a style of dress which she wore for her comfort at her own
convenience. Another woman gave exactly the same pattern and details
to the public, and is now living in elegance on the
