LAWS OF MAGNETIC ACTION
FIRST LAW: Relation of Power to “Tone”. The effectiveness of magnetism in action depends upon harmony of “tone” between its possessor and any other person, and in securing such “tone” harmony, on any magnetic plane, in any particular psychic state, at any given time, psychic and physical magnetism mutually cooperate.
SECOND LAW: Magnetic Intention. The [...]

Self Help: FEAR AND REASON
“In civilized life it has at last become possible for large numbers of people to pass from the cradle to the grave without ever having had a pang of genuine fear. Many of us need an attack of mental disease to teach us the meaning of the word.” William James.
We have all heard the seemingly [...]

Self Help: PREPARING FOR OLD AGE
Socrates was once asked by a pupil, this question: “What kind of people shall we be when we reach Elysium?” And the answer was this: “We shall be the same kind of people that we were here.” If there is a life after this, we are preparing for it now, just as I am today [...]

Self Help: EXCLUSIVE FRIENDSHIPS
An excellent and gentle man of my acquaintance has said, “When fifty-one per cent of the voters believe in cooeperation as opposed to competition, the Ideal Commonwealth will cease to be a theory and become a fact.”
That men should work together for the good of all is very beautiful, and I believe the day will [...]

THE ART OF CONVERSATION
The grand object for which a gentleman exists, is to excel in company. Conversation is the mean of his distinction, the drawing-room the scene of his glory.
In company, though none are “free,” yet all are “equal.” All therefore whom you meet, should be treated with equal respect, although interest may dictate toward each different degrees [...]

Self Help: PHYSICAL TONE
“In the healthy body every cell is polarized in subjection to the Central Will. Perfect health, therefore, is orderly obedience, government and harmony. Every cell is a living entity, whether of vegetable or animal potency, and wherever disease is, there are disunion, error, rebellion and insubordination; and the deeper the seat of the confusion, the [...]

ACQUIRE POWER THROUGH SELF DEVELOPMENT
It is the natural right of every human being to be happy to escape all the miseries of life. Happiness is the normal condition, as natural as the landscapes and the seasons. It is unnatural to suffer and it is only because of our ignorance that we do suffer.
Happiness is the product of wisdom. To [...]

SYMPATHY, KNOWLEDGE AND POISE
Sympathy, Knowledge and Poise seem to be the three ingredients that are most needed in forming the Gentle Man. I place these elements according to their value. No man is great who does not have Sympathy plus, and the greatness of men can be safely gauged by their sympathies.
Sympathy and imagination are twin sisters. Your [...]

Self Help: MENTAL ATTITUDE
Success is in the blood. There are men whom fate can never keep down they march forward in a jaunty manner, and take by divine right the best of everything that the earth affords. But their success is not attained by means of the Samuel Smiles-Connecticut policy.
They do not lie in wait, nor scheme, nor [...]

Self Help: LAWS OF MAGNETIC DEVELOPMENT
FIRST LAW: Discovery of endowment. The limits of magnetic endowment latent in every normal person emerge only through prolonged effort in the culture of magnetism.
SECOND LAW: Difficult environment. Magnetism develops in direct proportion to the difficulty of environment.
THIRD LAW: Magnetic intention. Magnetism evolves solely through multiplication of endowment into environment by the persistent magnetic intention.
FOURTH [...]
