A quotation from Josh Billings

I am just az certain that thare iz sitch a thing az “Spiritual manafestashuns” az i am that there iz plenty ov superstishun and trickery.
 
[I am just as certain that there is such a thing as “spiritual manifestations” as I am that there is plenty of superstition and trickery.]

Josh Billings (1818-1885) American humorist, aphorist [pseud. of Henry Wheeler Shaw]
Everybody’s Friend, Or; Josh Billing’s Encyclopedia and Proverbial Philosophy of Wit and Humor, ch. 156 “Affurisms: Embers on the Harth” (1874)

📖 The Feminine Macabre Volume VII is here! 🔮✨

I’m delighted to have contributed an essay on a lesser-known side of Marie Curie—her deep dive into séances and spiritualism. 👀 Known for her groundbreaking scientific work, Curie (along with her husband Pierre) also explored the supernatural, attending séances with the infamous Eusapia Palladino.

A fascinating piece on path-breaking artist Hilma af Klint which touches on her life, exploration of spiritualism, the role it has in her art, her group of friends and what role they played in the creation of the art, and the posthumous struggles over af Klint's work.

NINETEENTH CENTURY PHYSIOTHERAPY ORIGINS
Mastodon Host

Attached is the main part of a summer 1856 medical journal advertisement for Dr. Taylor's Water Cure Establishment. The second item is my commentary on the ad plus information about the early development of physical therapy in the United States. If you are interested in the histories of physical therapy and massage therapy, my posts (TribeOfJesse) at FamilySearch.org under the names of George Herbert Taylor and George Henry Patchen in the Sources sections may be worth your while to look through. For some reason, the Person record for Dr. George H. Taylor are hard to find at FamilySearch. The easiest thing is to search on the name of his son, William George Langworthy Taylor of Lincoln, Nebraska, and then link to the father. FamilySearch can be a bit hard to use until one gets used to it. Search on a person's name and in the Results list many entries have something like a decorated < symbol. Clicking on it ought to lead to a Person record. My most numerous and extensive posts are under the Sources heading. Click on a Sources entry and it ought to expand considerably. The present entry is under the year 1856 and has the title, "Swedish Movement Cure Department at Dr. Taylor's Water Cure, Summer 1856." None of these words should throw you. It is not an article about hydropathy but rather a post about early physical therapy. Incidentally, Dr. George Henry Patchen went on to become the medical theoretician of chiropractic. W.G. Langworthy Taylor wrote a 1937 textbook about spiritualism titled "Immortality." Dr. Charles F. Taylor's grandson, also named Charles Fayette Taylor, was one of the most important pioneers of aviation. A lot of brilliant people were in this Taylor line.

"Folks' Tale"

All life is a story
Mine. Yours.
Let's not make it a task.
Together we could read,
if you'd simply speak the questions
that I have longed to hear you ask.
