Eventually we are faced with mysteries so profound that we are constrained to ask WHY? Why do such conditions happen to me? Why am I in this predicament? Why am I forced to do things which are not to my liking? Why is my life cast amongst people for whom I have no affinity? WHY?

Why the suffering, disappointment, frustration, loss, separation and death of loved ones? Why all the apparent cruelty and injustice? Why are some children born physically, morally and mentally defective? Why are there such multitudes of wrecks of humanity dragging their wretched forms through life? Why are the hospitals, asylums and penal institutions filled to over-flowing? WHY?

How many know how to live? How many have any idea of life's plan and purpose? How many are aware of their origin or destiny? How many ever ask themselves: "Why am I here?" How many realize that they are immortal souls embarked upon a career that is eternal?

"AN ETERNAL CAREER" answers these and other perplexing questions.

LIFE AND ITS MYSTERIES

By FRANK L. HAMMER

$1.50

"SOLID GOLD"

"Here, we call out to all explorers of the mental realm. Here, is a vein of pure gold. It traces back to the soundest of roots—Emerson and Plato. And with equal soundness and simplicity it follows right up to the completed coin of the mental realm most needed today.

"The last chapter is a treasure, especially at this time, when nearly every home in the land has an empty chair. The subject is Immortality. Like every topic upon which Mr. Hammer touches, it is treated with delicacy and strength, and is presented in unqualified good writing."

The Argonaut, San Francisco

"A clear and logical explanation marked by scholarship, of the fundamental questions of life, and of the mystery that is religion."

Westchester Features Syndicate

"I have read many different books pertaining to life, but your writing is more interesting to me by far. You covered more ground in 124 pages than many books I have read from 300 to 600 pages."
