according to the mode in which the compressing force is applied. When the density of the body is, by nature, different in different directions-as ir crystals-its magnetic capacity is likewise different. The same view is further corroborated and confirmed by the changes of the magnetic capacity produced by changes of temperature.
To one it may seem that all these apply only to the inorganic world from which illustrations have been drawn. But for the organised bodies which appear to stand enterely in a different plane, we say that there is but little difference between the so-called inorganic and organic worlds. The difference is but a difference of degree in the manifestation. Both the worlds -serve as the manifesting media for the display of the energies and powers struggling from within. Besides, physical organisms consist of solid, liquid, gaseous and etheric matter most exquisitely and delicately organised into cells and tissues. These
