Excerpt from The Man Wonderful in the House Beautiful: And the Holy of Holies: An Allegory; Teaching the Principles of Physiology and Hygiene, the Effects of Stimulants and Narcotics, and the Beauty and Sacredness of the Human Body Teaching truth by means of allegory has been among the most successful of the many methods employed by the ablest instructors. Jesus taught the common people, who heard him gladly, by parables, and for nearly two thousand years these parables have been equally pleasing and instructive to all classes and conditions of men, and during all ages they will remain as use ful as when first uttered. If the sublime truths of Christianity could be taught allegorically, why may not less difficult subjects, which underlie our well being, be made, in like manner, interesting and practical? The object of this work is to teach the important truths of Physiology and Hygiene as well as the effects of Stimulants and Narcotics upon the human system, and to show the wonderful adaptability and beauty of the human body in such an attractive and practical manner that it will be acceptable and useful to all. It is hoped that this allegory will secure a per manent lodgment in the minds of the young, and that they will find so much pleasure and advan tage in practicing the truths of science here taught, that the contemplation of the vital truths of their earthly habitation will forever remain pleasurable.
