I found a letter dating back to 1899 that was typed by someone named S.A. Weltmer. apparently he founded some type of school that teaches you to heal your body using your mind and natural remidies.the fact that this letter was typed lets me know he had to be important considering only important people could afford type writers back then. The paper that was used also carries a U.S. bond water mark.it also has a seal from the sate of missouri calling it the S.A. Weltmer school of magnetic healing. Is there any value in this six page historical piece of information?

As always, it's only worth what people are willing to pay for it. It's worth googling Weltmer, because there seems to be a bit of histoircal stuff about this guy on the web.\n\nOne thing I did find a vintage postcard of Weltmer's quack school. Click on the link below...\n\n\nAlso there's a great legal document. It seems the US goverment considered him a con artist. Here's an excerpt (see bottom for link):\n\n"It having been made to appear to the Postmaster General, upon evidence satisfactory to him, that the American School of Magnetic Healing, S. A. Weltmer, president, J. H. Kelly, secretary, and J. A. Kelly, at Nevada, Missouri, are engaged in conducting a scheme or device for obtaining money through the mails by means of false and fraudulent pretenses, representations, and promises, in violation of the act of Congress entitled 'An Act to Amend Certain Sections of the Revised Statutes Relating to Lotteries, and for Other Purposes, Approved September 19, 1900.'"

If this is a business letter confirming...something...the format is wrong.\n\n                                                                           Mr. Your Name\n                                                                            Your Company\n                                                                             Address\n                                                                            Date of Letter\n\nMr. Jeffrey Name\nHis Company\nCompany Address\n\nDear Mr. ?:\n\nAttached are five of the three-dimensional drawings that you requested.

"I would like to thank you for the opportunity to: ......provide you with our services...OR...It was nice to see you and Diane again...\n\nYour name and address is to the right of the page and his to the left, his below yours (It will not allow me to space properly here).

For some really interesting answers to this question I really reccomend a book called 'The Field' by Lynne Mctaggart. It looks into a lot of things that are really now coming to be understood on a new level by modern science. It is a fascinating book and although I didn't agree with everything it said it really opened my mind to some new ideas. It covers a wide range of subjects, many relating to traditional healing. The section on homeopathy is very interesting.

I hope this is what you meant.\n\nI worked at a radio station that had several practicing black witches as personnel.  They liked my personality and wanted me to join their coven, but I am Christian.  I ended up moving to another state.\n\nOne sent me a letter, a real hard copy through the US mail.  I tore it up and put it in the wastebasket next to my desk.  Shortly after, I noticed a few of the pieces on the floor.  It was winter, I was wearing a quilted, gathered robe, and thought a few of the pieces I had tossed had spilled into a fold instead.\n\nI left the room to go to the bathroom, I was gone about three minutes, and I was alone.  When I came back in the room, the pieces of the letter were on the floor in a perfect outline of a dead body, just like you see the chalk outline in detective shows.  There were three stars around the head of the body, two upside down and one pointing out.

I take back my rude attitude! I am sorry for being so rough in my answer earier. It is really really amazing after I went through the whole thing! I thought I was just wasting my time to read and solve something. Anyway, thanks for this lesson. I promise not to judge anything before I completely get to understand it. This is how it read:\n\n"I couldn’t believe that I could actually understand what I was reading. The phenomenal power of the human mind, according to a research at Cambridge University, it doesn’t matter in what order the letters in a word are, the only important thing is that the first and last letter be in the right place. The rest can be a total mess and you can still read it without a problem. \n\nThis is because the human mind does not read every letter by itself, but the word as a whole. Amazing huh ? Yeah. and I always thought spelling was important !\n\nIf you can read this, pass it on !"\n\nThanks! By the way,\n\nI ma psasing ti on ot ym futuer geneartoin... ah ah ah...

I knew a guy who got the highest marks I have ever seen, and his secret was that while he was reading something (relating to your work oviously) he would jot down points that he thought was pretty interesting or relative, all in his own words. When you write something down it sticks in your memory, and when its in your own words it tends to make more sense. Then, he would keep these pages and when it came time to study for a test or whatever, he would go over them and they made alot more sense than his text book! It really is the easier, most effective way of finding and retaining information.\nI tried it and shocked myself at how high my marks were, I still can remember certain points very vividly just from writing points in my own words.\n\nExample :\n\nFrom your text book : \n\nStudying bacteria. To establish that a certain bacterium causes a particular disease, bacteriologists follow four basic steps. These steps are called Koch's postulates, after the German physician Robert Koch, who formulated them in the late 1800's. The steps are: (1) Pathogenic (disease-causing) bacteria are taken from diseased animals. (2) The pathogenic bacteria are isolated and grown in a laboratory. (3) The laboratory-grown bacteria are injected into experimental animals. (4) Bacteria are isolated from the diseased experimental animals and shown to be the same kind as the original bacteria.\n\n\nMy own words :\n\nThere are 4 steps to finding out whether bacteria can cause certain diseases. Its called Koch's Postulates. Named after Robert Koch.\nHe thought this up in the late 1800's (remeber this date!).\n\n1. Take the pathogenic (means disease causing remember) bacteria from a sick animal.\n2.  Isolate the bacteria and grow it (In a lab)\n3.  Inject this grown bacteria into experimental animals.\n4.  The bacteria from those animals should be the same as the first lot you isolated from the first batch of animals.\n\nJust an example. See how much shorter and to the point it is? I just took the important parts. Make sure your facts are always accurate, as they end up replacing your text book, and make sure they make sense to you! Use plain English. Keep the notes in a safe place. Highlight dates with a bright highlighter.\nAnother thing that this guy used to do - when he finished an exam or test, he went over it like a forensic detective! He analysed it and double checked it! This is where you find and get rid of stupid mistakes. Good luck! You'll be fine!

Good person to write about!!  I agree with everyone else's answers; Mark Twain captured life in the 1800s, the human spirit, and he did it with a brilliant sense of humor.  He used a lot of sarcasm, which most people your age can relate to!  Although his books are fictional, they are a great resource for learning about American history- people's accents, slang, and what they did for fun.\n\nGood luck w/ your paper, I'm sure it'll be great!

Dear Jassa b,\n            What do you think? Does all these stupidities work? Abstain from such handiwork. These are Satan's handiwork. There was a research done in America. There was a Professor who taught a class of 100 students. After a week, the Professor said, I have got to know the nature and past of every student. I will write it on papers and give the students. After it, the students will open it simultaneously and tell whether it is true or not. The Professor wrote the nature and past of every student and distributed them among the students. When the students opened them, more than 90 % students said that the Professor was 100 % correct and the remaining 8 or 9 % said that the Professor was 90% correct. After that, the Professor told that he wrote the same thing for every student. You know there are certain things which are for sure, which anyone can say. Like, I say that in the next 6 months, you will hear a good news. Even if 100 bad things have happened, at least one good thing will happen. Its just a guess.\n\nSo ....  Abstain from palmistry.

I found the idea of this story quite intriguing and I have tried hard to find it but I can't think of any other way to search for it.  What is the "7407 course"?  Do  you have any way of contacting someone who has done it or who teaches it?  I think that's what I would try.\n\nI've included a few sites that you have probably already seen about misinterpreting gestures, but maybe they will be of some help.

Hello there. Funny you mention this because, as a boy, the first truly inspiring text I read was the Tao Te Ching. I still find myself reading it, at least in part, once a week. This text is so simple yet profound it put me on a path to seek out even more esoteric knowledge. I have also studied the writings of Confucius, the Vedic texts  of India, Buddhism,  Zen, Shinto, Suffic Islam, etc. All in all, the Tao really opened my eyes to a deeper understanding of things. I can read about Quantum Mechanics and sub-atomic physics and find the spiritual parallels within the science. I wish more westerners could be exposed to this. My email is viewable in profile.

I'm not familiar with that one.  You've sparked my interest I'll probably go to the library and check it out.\n\n/doc

It sounds good.  The only thing is that if you are going to look into the characters real meaning in American history then you are going to have to do background research on that period in history so you have a secondary source to back your historical claims up.  If you want to avoid doing all of this secondary historical research you may want to simply focus only on the text and the historical background offered in it rather than looking at the period as a whole and then placing those characters into the context of it.  If you are already highly familiar with the period then that's great, but you're still going to need to site some sources where you picked up this secondary knowledge.\n\nOther than that it sounds great.\n\nAnother thing too. If you are going to use symbolism to compare and contrast the characters you may want to find a set of reoccurring symbols and look at what that says about the text as a whole. Why do the same images/symbols keep reappearing? What is the author saying?

It's actually kind of a nonissue. No one's tried to use that symbol, so it hasn't been added to the list. No one's refusing anything, the paperwork just takes forever and a day to go through. Many symbols aren't on the list yet, like the Christian fish.

I'm a little concerned that anyone who types like that has made it to an Advanced Communication Skills course...\n\nIn addition, I'm sure you realize that most professors want you to use actual studies where the information has been confirmed in your papers.  You can't confirm that information gathered from an online post-board holds any real validity.  Try using JSTOR for journal articles about prostitution.
