Te understand modern Socialism, you must under-

stand Evolution. Socialists predict the speedy end

of the capitalist system as a result of irresi

NATURAL LAWS, the workings of which have been

studied for two generations since their discovery. Most of the books in which these laws are explained are too difficult to read and too expensive to buy, except for the leisure class. The ten books here de- scribed will give you a clear understanding of the great process in which Socialism is the next step.

2. The Triumph of Life. By Wilhelm Boelsche. Describes the resistless triumph of the Life Force over all obstacles. Illustrated.

3. Life and Death. By Dr. E. Teichmann. A study in biology, explaining how and why life began and how the life of each individual ends.

5. The Making of the World. By Dr. M. Wilhelm Meyer. Describes the process by which dead worlds are reborn into new worlds and how life begins again. Illustrated.

6. Germs of Mind in Plants. By R. H. France. A remarkable work proving that “mind” is not limited to man or even to animals, but is found in plants also. Illustrated.
