82 THE UNIVERSE 



and so is the ammonia, while the chloride is electro- 

 negative. 



"The electro-positive zinc has greater electric 

 affinity for the chlorine than the ammonia has, and 

 consequently the ammonia is driven off and com- 

 bined with chlorine, forming chloride of zinc. The 

 result is the difference of an electric pull between the 

 elements. 



"All admit that the force of elements forms a 

 part of the anatomic structure, and there must be 

 electricity. When oxygen is taken into a body it 

 excites the elements in the same manner as the 

 negative chlorine attacks the zinc in the battery. 

 The electrical circuit of the body is the circulating 

 blood, and when the oxygen and the nitrogen are 

 taken in through the lungs the electro-negative 

 ions go in one direction. Sulphur and oxygen are 

 electro-negative and the other elements of the blood 

 are electro-positive; and consequently, when the 

 nitrogen and oxygen of the air attack the blood 

 through the medium of the air cells, we find that 

 oxygen and sulphur pass in one direction, while 

 the other elements which are electro-positive pass 

 in the opposite direction. This action is electrolytic 

 the same as if we apply a battery to the human 

 body." 



All this accords with my theory of electrical crea- 

 tion, and proves, as I have contended for many 

 years, that man's body as well as the universe is an 

 electric organism. 



In my book "The New Cosmogony," published 

 about five years previous to these discoveries, I laid 

 down the broad proposition that nature or the 

 Creator has never made but one pattern or type
