In the endeavor to give a consistent explana- 

 tion of the forces which most assuredly con- 

 trol all things, the author, while he fully commits 

 himself in a general sense, nevertheless does not 

 necessarily hold himself bound to every minor

 incontrovertible truth in the best form he is 

 capable of giving it at the present time, reserving

These forces then penetrate all bodies, organic 

 and inorganic. They completely fill all unoc- 

 cupied space and all interstices between the 

 atoms forming a body. They form centers at 

 every conceivable point and every point is the 

 center of an infinite series of polyhedrons, 

 formed by the radiations of other centers; those 

 of a kind being formed in concentric order. The 

 forces contained within every pencil of force, 

 have an indefinite variety of vibrations, and alto- 

 gether they form an indestructible network 

 throughout all creation, and although extremely 

 sensitive they cannot be swayed in any direction
