Casting Off the Useless Organs 



This Is suggestive of similar habits among the ancestors of 

 both. Again there are Instances of record which show that 

 a cross between the different races of men will revert back to 

 the characteristics of the now lesser blood when many gen- 

 erations removed from the original cross. 



The human body Is the most complex mechanism which 

 Nature has constructed. The physics and chemistry of non- 

 living matter had laid the foundation for life and when the 

 ''life spark" was breathed Into a certain compound of non- 

 living elements, the mysterious processes of life began. 

 From the beginning of life to Its crowning development — 

 Man, Its physical and chemical actions have been In har- 

 mony with the physical and chemical actions of non-living 

 matter. Biologists have made many attempts to define life, 

 but these attempts have failed. All things In Nature are 

 guided and controlled by unchanging laws. There Is sym- 

 metry, design, purpose and harmony In every created thing, 

 both living and non-living, from the electron to the most 

 distant star. Again we repeat; "From harmony, to har- 

 mony, this universal frame began; from Harmony to har- 

 mony, the diapason closing full In man." 



The complex mechanism of the human body Is made up 

 of a few of the eighty odd known elements, only fifteen mak- 

 ing up the most of It. But these fifteen elements with the 

 breath of life breathed Into them rule and dominate all the 

 creatures of the world. Through the processes of evolu- 

 tionary growth, these elements have been woven Into a per- 

 fect machine with the power of reaching out. In and up until 

 our understanding has begun to grasp some of the mysteries 

 of creation.
