 PSYCHOLOGY is for all ages. 
 Psychology is practical; it 
 justifies religion, ennobles 
 our faith in God. Those who be-

 certainly be profited.

 Tour mind is your real self your real 
 being. There are more and more possi- 
 bilities in nature, in the elements, in man 
 and out of man; and they come as fast as 
 man sees and knows how to use these 
 forces, in nature and in himself. Possi- 
 bilities and miracles mean the same thing.

 acts of itself, it lifts itself outside of 
 forms. You will be invested with power 
 a secret between yourself and God. Once 
 take this lute on which we sing to God in 
 our hands , and we will never fart with it. 
 We feel God with us, in us. In His name 
 we do the works He inspires. A miracle 
 is performed. Silence and meditation are 
 the means of following the way. Repose 
 brings complete communion, the permanent

 Each man has all the wisdom of the

 To grasp the invisible elements, to

 It is this subconscious self or soul, or 
 ego, of you which does your real think-

 The power to be creative and recep-

 Psychology is namely the doctrine 
 which attempts to describe our mental 
 life, and, as far as possible, to discover 
 its conditions and laws. JOSIAH ROYCE. 
 
 Auto-suggestion is the great psycho- 
 logical miracle; a few realize the part 
 it plays in the drama of life. It is the 
 lord of the realm of habit, it ex- 
 plains the accomplishment of seem- 
 ingly impossible feats.

 Each individual has two personali-

 attain the desired purpose.

 It is all a matter of educating the
