Hot and cold and silicon! What a wonderful combination! It explains the mysteries of the universe, radio-activity and life.
It may be well to here state that there is no chemical difference between a dead man's brain and nerves and a live man's brain and nerves. This in itself shows that the cause of life and intelligence is simply from some conformation of matter which allows the presence of Spirit. This is the invisible process of the formation of WHITE SPARKS or the making of a hollow center to molecules.
LIFE is not a principle per se of organic matter, but organic matter is arranged into round molecules with cell center of silicon phosphorus, sulphur or iron.
The hard and fast nature of the elements is an imagination and it is only a short step of nature from quartz or silicon to carbon and I may also say to nitrogen the gas of the atmosphere.
THE FARMER CAN BECOME A MAGICIAN by intellect. We once proved that by the use of lime or an alkali vegetables can be made to grow IN SAND. A tomato plant was planted in a mixture of sand and plasterer's mortar (a mixture of quick lime and sand) and a bushel of tomatoes were gathered from this one plant. The lime makes the sand soluble and acts the same as manure which produces carbonic acid which at the moment of its formation acts as a solvent of sand and this gives growth. Water is the great element of life and growth—with the heating effect of the sun and the alternations of temperature or cooling after heating we augment the life and growth.
I will reprint some more of the articles which were in THE LATCH KEY, as they seemed to strike the readers more impressibly than anything which I ever wrote, and in fact THE LATCH KEY seemed to have hypnotic influence. First of all IT WAS ANONYMOUS and no author's name appeared and further it was given away.
One lady in later years found out the author and wrote to me for a few copies, saying she could not help crying when she read paragraph 37. Perhaps the paragraph took on the "poetical" and thus reached her sentiments.
37.
The Secret of Life!
The little chapel peacefully resting under the overhanging trees, with the solemn graveyard beside it, tells the story of life's longings and miseries. Yet within the little chapel, however humble, can be learned the secret of life's joy and success and the eternal happiness of the soul!
