The Zodiac and the Salts of Salvation. George W. Carey

СКАЧАТЬ hopes are blighted in blooming,

      One gathers the ripened pod—

      Some call it Fate or Destiny,

      And others call it God.

      Glimmering waters and breakers,

      Far on the horizon’s rim,

      White sails and sea-gulls glinting

      Away till the sight grows dim,

      And shells, spirit-painted with glory,

      Where seaweeds beckon and nod—

      Some people call it Ocean,

      And others call it God.

      Cathedrals and domes uplifting,

      Spires pointing up to the sun,

      Images, altars and arches,

      Where kneeling and penance are done—

      From organs grand anthems are swelling,

      Where the true and faithful plod—

      Some call it Superstition,

      While others call it God.

      Visions of beauty and splendor,

      Forms of a long-lost race,

      Sounds of faces and voices,

      From the fourth dimension of space—

      And on through the universe boundless,

      Our thoughts go lightning shod—

      Some call it Imagination,

      And others call it God.

      Acids and alkalies acting,

      Proceeding and acting again,

      Operating, transmuting, fomenting,

      In throes and spasms of pain—

      Uniting, reacting, creating,

      Like souls “passing under the rod”—

      Some people call it Chemistry,

      And others call it God.

      Vibration of Etheric Substance,

      Causing light through regions of space,

      A girdle of Something, enfolding,

      And binding together the race—

      And words without wires transmitted,

      “Ariel”—winged, spirit-sandaled and shod—

      Some call it Electricity,

      And others call it God.

      Earth redeemed and made glorious,

      Lighted by Heaven within,

      Men and angels face to face,

      With never a thought of sin—

      Lion and lamb together,

      In flowers that sweeten the sod—

      Some of us call it Brotherhood,

      And others call it God.

      And now the sixth sense is opened,

      And we have rent the veil,

      And we no longer wander,

      We have ransomed the “Holy Grail.”

      Through all of life’s phases and changes,

      Along all new paths to be trod,

      We will recognize only one power—

      One present, Omnipotent God.

      Note: There have been so many requests for this much admired poem from the pen of Dr. Carey that it is believed its publication herein will be appreciated by his friends.

      RELATION OF THE MINERAL SALTS OF THE BODY TO THE SIGNS OF THE ZODIAC

      BY

      DR. GEORGE W. CAREY

      BIOCHEMISTRY

      Acid and Alkali acting,

      Proceeding and acting again.

      Operating, transmuting, fomenting

      In throes and spasms of pain—

      Uniting, reacting, creating,

      Like souls “passing under the rod”—

      Some people call it Chemistry,

      And others call it God.

      BIOCHEMISTRY means that chemistry of life, or the union of inorganic and organic substances whereby new compounds are formed.

      In its relation to so-called disease this system uses the inorganic salts, known as cell-salts, or tissue builders.

      The constituent parts of man’s body are perfect principles,—namely, oxygen, hydrogen, carbon, lime, iron, potash, soda, silica, magnesia, etc. These elements, gases, etc., are perfect per se, but may be endlessly diversified in combination as may the planks, bricks or stones with which a building is to be erected.

      A shadow can not be removed by chemicals; neither can disease be removed by poison. There is nothing (no thing) to be removed in either case; but there is a deficiency to be supplied. The shadow may be removed by supplying light to the space covered by the shadow.

      So symptoms, called disease, disappear or cease to manifest when the food called for is furnished.

      The human body is a receptacle or a storage battery, and will always run well while the chemicals are present in proper quantity and combination, as surely as an automobile will run when charged and supplied with the necessary ingredients to vibrate or cause motion.

      The cell-salts are found in all our foods, and are thus carried into the blood, where they carry on the process of life, and by the law of chemical affinity keep the human form, bodily functions, materialized. When a deficiency occurs in any of these workers through a non-assimilation of food, poor action of liver or digestive process, dematerialization of the body commences. So disease is a deficiency in some of the chemical constituents that carry on the chemistry СКАЧАТЬ
