And of Cell Life 31 



the physiologist, but mainly curiosity because it has its origin in the 

 same layer from which the organs of locomotion arise. The con- 

 clusion was foregone. The brain as an organ individualized in its 

 grouping of cells, by the separating forces of negative electricity, is 

 formed of the most highly sensitized condition of matter, and 

 governs the distance and direction in which cell activity shall move. 



Negative electricity travels at a speed almost equal to that of 

 light, so as an organ kept active through the activity of external 

 fields of ether, the phenomena of psychic conditions are easily 

 accounted for. 



That the brain cells represent a great magnetic field of negatively 

 constructed groups, undergoing continuous decomposition, and thus 

 initiating the aifferent directions in which matter must move, explains 

 why the outlines of the skull are the same as the outlines of the 

 magnetic poles of the earth. (Plate i6, fig. 23.) 



We will go even further back than the point spoken of by 

 Haeckel as the eleven ancestral animal forms of the human form. 



Of the primitive rocks Charles Dana says : " Quartz is the first 

 in importance. It is found under eleven different forms, limpid, 

 quartz, amethyst, agate, chalcedony, flint, hornstone, lydianstone or 

 basanite, jasper, sandstone, opal and ordinary sand. It has no 

 cleavage, that is, it breaks in one direction as well as another." 



When we understand the origin of the primitive rocks we will 

 not continue to speak of them as igneous, because their formation 

 was due to the negative separating forces of electricity, the groups 

 in a magnetic field in the great mass of matter representing the 

 earth, being forced to form crystal particles of definite colors, etc. 

 These particles were forced to move in definite directions, and, as 

 " rotating electricity," would not move very far from a central 

 position, so that the origin of non-stratified rocks is to be looked for 

 under the production of individualized particles of matter in their 

 closest association, or occupation of space. 



The sun, as a great electrical centre, shows the government of this 

 number eleven, and the astronomer has found that solar outbreaks 

 are rhythmical, and the number of spots waxes and wanes in about 

 eleven years. Solar outbreaks are the result of the breaking down 

 of centres as " magnetic fields of force " in the sun's envelope. That 

 they are caused by the separating force of negative electricity is 

 very probable, because the earth and planets evidence the same 

 material in formation, so that which governs the accumulation of 

 electric charges as atoms of matter in the earth must be represented 

 in the accumulation of matter in the sun also. 



That these eleven primordial positions of the system of grouping 

 of 3-4 determined the different forms of life and their division into 

 classes, may be proven by the following numbers, taken from 

 Sedgwick's work on Zoology. 



To begin with the one-celled Protozoa, we find them divided into 

 eleven divisions with four sub-orders. 



The Porifera contains 55 families, or eleven for each of the five 

 different kinds of electric charges.
