the number of cells which shall go into each normal 

 body, and the manner in which these cells shall be 

 grouped together. In brief, the same supernatural 

 psychic and creative force, always, determines the 

 form and size of each animal, all over the earth. 



Sec. 25. Distribution and Grouping of 

 Cells in the Embryo Body 



As already stated, every man and woman begins 

 life as a germ-cell or fertilized ovum. This cell grows 

 and divides into two daughter-cells; these into four, 

 eight, sixteen, thirty-two, and so on. At first these 

 daughter-cells are so distributed and grouped as to 

 form a solid ball called, "the morula;' next they 

 take the form of a hollow ball, called "the blastula' 

 with a single layer or sheet of cells and a fluid in 

 the center; next a group of cells with two layers, 

 called "the gastrula;" then they are so distributed or 

 grouped as to form two germ-layers or sheets of cells, 

 then into three layers, then into four. At this point 

 a portion of the cells is so grouped as to begin the 

 formation of the spinal cord and brain ; and in course 

 of time, other cells are so distributed and grouped as 

 to form the bones, muscles, nerves, arteries, veins, 

 heart, lungs, stomach, liver, kidneys, intestines, arms, 

 hands, legs, feet and other organs and parts of the 

 body. 



The form of any animal body and each organ and 

 part of such a body, depends upon the manner in which
