-
-
-In the previous pamphlets, “English Methods of Birth Control” and “Dutch
-Methods of Birth Control,” one finds a duplication of the methods given
-in the first pamphlet, “Family Limitation.” The French methods of Birth
-Control are so nearly the same that I have decided not to duplicate
-these again, but to give instead a list of the books and pamphlets
-issued by the French League, and also cuts or pictures of some of the
-articles they have for sale at their headquarters, 27 Rue de la Duée,
-Paris. These will be found at the end of this pamphlet.
-
-I also find that the methods used to control births in Germany, Italy,
-Spain, Belgium, Norway, Sweden, India, Russia, and Japan have all been
-greatly influenced by the English and Dutch Neo-Malthusian Leagues (the
-two oldest Leagues). To give further national methods would be only a
-waste of time and material, and would add nothing to what has already
-been given. This does not mean that there are not many other mechanical
-devices. There are numerous ones; but I still find that there is nothing
-better, safer, cheaper, or more convenient than the pessary mentioned in
-“Family Limitation.”
-
-In France, Germany, Spain, Italy, Belgium, and Sweden there are strong
-Neo-Malthusian movements advancing the Birth Control theories by
-lectures, literature, and practical means. In Russia, Japan, India, and
-United States there have been recently feeble attempts to establish
-Birth Control movements; but as yet they have remained embryonic.
-
-I have decided to close this series of pamphlets with the following
-explanation of the Magnetation method, and feel that I have said all
-that I can say of interest on Birth Control methods. I have gladly
-donated my mite toward what I consider essential to woman’s economic,
-social, and sexual freedom.
-
-
-
-
-                  Magnetation Method of Birth Control.
-
-
-Before closing this series of pamphlets on the practical methods of
-Birth Control, I feel in justice to the many readers and subscribers of
-the _Woman Rebel_ who inquired about the theories of Magnetation, Male
-Continence, Sedular Absorption, Karezza, and Zugassent’s Discovery, that
-this series would not be complete without giving at least a general idea
-of these theories and their practice.
-
-It is interesting to note that the magnetation theory had its best and
-longest practice, as well as its beginning, in America, under the title
-Male Continence. This method was practised for over forty years by a
-group averaging 130 men and 150 women known as the Oneida Community.
-They occupied a part of the old reservation of the Oneida Indians in New
-York State, and lived in a harmonious and prosperous form of Communistic
-society. John Humphrey Noyes was the head and founder of the group.
-Through personal experience and prolonged study, he discovered the
-theory of male continence. Since that time many others have come forward
-with the _same theory_ under various names. Almost without exception,
-each advocate has injected some kind of religion into it. The Oneida
-Community was particularly a religious sect, and Alice B. Stockham, the
-author of Karezza, was a fervent religionist. However, aside from this,
-there are fundamental truths in the theory which bear thinking about and
-should not be discarded without some consideration. In view of the
-thousands of testimonials of the healthful results of the practice of
-these theories, I present these methods like that of the others, and for
-convenience shall classify them all under one head, “Magnetation.”
-
-There are thousands of men and women who object to the practical and
-mechanical means of Birth Control, who feel that the pessary, condom,
-and douche are gross and sordid, and take away the artistic and
-spiritual beauty of the act. It is those whom the magnetation method
-will interest most. There are others who will claim that this method is
-“not satisfying,” and can find no enjoyment in its practice. But so are
-there thousands of men and women who can pass a beautiful painting and
-receive no inspiration from it, or listen to a charming selection on a
-musical instrument and receive no emotion from it. So are there many
-whose natures are not so constructed that they can enjoy or benefit by
-this method. There is no doubt that the successful attainment of this
-method is dependable upon a fine spiritual bond between the two who
-enjoy its practice.
-
-
-                              THE THEORY.
-
-The advocates of the magnetation method ask you to first analyse sexual
-intercourse. They claim that you will recognise in it two distinct acts,
-_i.e._, the social (or amative) and the propagative. Those who practise
-the magnetation method content themselves with and prefer the social
-act, unless the procreative act is desired. It is usually held that the
-sexual organs have _two_ distinct functions, viz., the urinary and the
-propagative. The advocates of the magnetation theory claim that the
-sexual organs have _three_ distinct functions, viz., urinary,
-propagative, and amative—_i.e._, they are conductors firstly of urine,
-secondly of semen, and thirdly of social magnetism. Each one separate
-and distinct in itself.
-
-The organs of propagation are physiologically distinct from the organs
-of union in both sexes. The testicles are the principal organs of
-reproduction in the male, and the uterus in the female. Sexual
-conjunction of male and female no more involves the discharge of semen
-than of the urine. The discharge of semen, instead of being the main act
-of sexual intercourse, is really the sequel and termination of it.
-Sexual intercourse pure and simple is the conjunction of the organs of
-union, and the interchange and flow of magnetic influences through that
-conjunction. The seminal discharge can be voluntarily withheld in sexual
-intercourse, or it can be produced without sexual intercourse, as in
-masturbation, which demonstrates the fact that the discharge of the
-semen, and the pleasure associated with its discharge, is not social,
-since it can be produced in solitude: it is a personal and not a social
-act.
-
-The physiological analysis of the procreative act shows that the
-pleasure of the act is not produced by contact and interchange of life
-with the female, but by the action of the seminal fluid on the internal
-nerves of the male organ. The desire and that which satisfies it are
-both within the man, and may be obtained without sexual intercourse. The
-amative function, or the simple union of two persons, is a distinct and
-independent function, giving a medium of magnetic interchange superior
-to that gained through the reproductive function. It is the presence of
-the seed and not the absence of it that makes the bull superior to the
-ox, and it is the stimulating, retaining, and absorbing the semen in the
-man, and directing it into other creative channels, which make the
-amative act of greater benefit and more healthful and vitalising than
-the procreative act.
-
-Most of us know that creative energy expressed through the sexual nature
-is an instinct to perpetuate life; that it has its origin in and is
-co-existent with life itself; that it is the power back of all purposes
-and plans; that it is the self-pushing force that gives the individual
-the ability and desire to do and to perform; that it is the impelling
-factor and inventive genius in all man’s handiwork. That this force
-operates in the multiplication of atoms and molecules, in the attraction
-of germ to sperm cells. The process of growth and fulfilment of
-functions is propelled by this energy, which is operative throughout all
-Nature. It is the force back of and expresses itself through the
-physical life of man and animal.
-
-Atoms, cells, and plants are unconscious of this force, and animals are
-conscious of it only in a slight degree. But man is conscious of this
-energy, and is capable of developing a greater consciousness of it and
-of its operation and utilisation to a remarkable degree. Like the
-engineer who masters the engine by his knowledge of its construction and
-the force that runs it, so can man master this creative energy and
-direct it where he wills. Creative life can be expressed in other ways
-beside parenthood.
-
-Emerson says, “Work your passion up into poetry.” Passion is the sign of
-creative power; it is the voice of creative life. If it were understood
-and its powers realised, it would be elevated and worshipped instead of
-lowered and debased, as the Comstocks would have us do. As creative
-energy becomes understood and applied, men and women will grow in
-strength of character and in strength of love, and will naturally devote
-these powers to the interests and development of the human race.
-
-
-                             THE PRACTICE.
-
-Each of these theories involves sedular absorption through intercourse
-without culmination. No discharge is allowed, but by a superior control
-is retained, thereby making the act an amative (love) act, and uplifting
-it from an exhaustive, abrupt fertilising function into a quiet magnetic
-charm, producing health and increased happiness.
-
-The act of sexual intercourse has a beginning, a middle, and an end. Its
-beginning or first stage is simply the presence of the male organ in the
-female. The middle or second stage is a series of reciprocal motions.
-The end or third stage is the ejaculatory crisis, or the termination of
-the act. The advocates of male continence, Zugassent’s discovery,
-sedular absorption, and magnetation claim that the whole process up to
-the third stage is entirely voluntary and can be stopped at any point.
-It is compared to a stream in the three conditions of a fall, a course
-of rapids above the fall, and still water above the rapids. The boatman
-may decide if he will remain in still water or venture down the rapids,
-or run his boat over the fall. They contend that experience will teach
-him the wisdom of remaining where the rowing is easy, unless the object
-is worthy of going over the falls. Karezza advises to content oneself
-with simple presence in the first stage until the magnetic thrill passes
-off. They are all similar and all aim at the same result. I head them
-under one method—“magnetation.”
-
-Those who practise it claim the highest possible enjoyment, with no loss
-of vitality and a perfect control of the fecundating power. Its practice
-greatly involves the art of love by a prolonged intercourse preventing
-that which puts an end to intercourse—the ejaculation. The seminal
-fluid, it is claimed, has an immense immanent value; and if kept in the
-system and magnetised, and reabsorbed by the blood, adds enormously to a
-man’s mental and magnetic force, which through the ordinary sexual act
-is constantly being expended. That its practice by some men will be
-difficult there can be no doubt; but it can be no more difficult or need
-a greater power of control than that required of the man in the act of
-“coitus interruptus” (withdrawal). Those who practise magnetation claim
-that it is far removed from “repelling asceticism”; that it gives ample
-exercise to the affections, and opportunity for the exchange of sexual
-magnetism; but that its greatest benefit is that its practice conduces
-to a higher love development. It is the attainment of this control that
-raises the sexual passion in man and woman to its proper place by the
-side of music and poetry.
-
-The strongest objection which is put forth against its practice is that
-it is “unnatural”; that it is unauthorised by the examples of other
-creatures of the animal kingdom, and therefore must be wrong. But the
-answer comes that cooking, wearing clothes, and all modern life is far
-removed from natural living; and were we to remain in close adherence to
-Nature, we would go on all fours and remain dumb.
-
-When we realise we are living in an age when nearly all departments of
-life have been greatly modified and advanced by recent discoveries of
-steam, electricity, the telephone, telegraphy, the microscope, and other
-agents of enlightenment, is it not surprising that there has been almost
-no discovery or improvement in the vital department of the sex
-relations? The explorer, the pioneer, the discoverer may pursue his way
-into every department of life, and return to lay his riches at the feet
-of Science, Art, or Invention; but woe to him who dares to explore that
-shaded valley of sex. No matter how pure the motive, or what agony and
-miseries one sought to alleviate, dungeons, persecutions, slanders, and
-jails await him who ventures to bring treasures from its hidden depths.
-Yet there is no other department of life which needs so much instruction
-and education as the sex department.
-
-A healthful sexual stimulation has a beneficial effect on both men and
-women, especially when the loved one is accessible and some
-demonstration of sexual feeling allowed, as in the restrained yet ardent
-caresses of an affianced pair. Here we often see not only the happiest
-but the most productive and healthful period of a man’s life. It is said
-this is particularly true of man’s intellectual activities.
-
-We see a year later this same happy pair experience a great falling off
-in their affection. Women have experienced this so often that they begin
-to hate the sexual relation, and look upon the act either with fear of
-pregnancy or with an unconquerable loathing. Of course, a great deal of
-this aversion which women experience is the result of their former
-training. The girl is taught before marriage that the act is a most
-degrading thing, and is told that it is the accomplishment of this one
-thing for which man desires her before marriage. Afterwards all is
-supposed to be changed. She is expected to have an entirely new
-philosophy as soon as the marriage certificate is in her hands. The
-average young man knows little of the art of love, and is consequently
-unable to beautify their relations or to teach her a new psychology. The
-first year is spent in secret misery on her side, and ruptures and
-misunderstandings between them both. The average woman will tell you she
-loves to be caressed and to express her affection for her husband, but
-could be quite satisfied without intercourse. This is especially true of
-the intellectual woman, who is acknowledging her lessening interest in
-the sex relation, and even repulses affectionate demonstration, fearing
-it must terminate in sexual intercourse (mainly the fear of pregnancy).
-
-Surely this is something to be squarely faced by every intelligent man
-and woman, and serious enough to deserve our untiring interest.
-Something must be wrong. What is it? Does this theory offer a solution
-to any? It may. Nearly all women who practise it testify to its
-benefits, while few men complain of it. Those who do, say that to
-control the ejaculation to-day means a seminal loss later during sleep.
-The advocates, however, say this will occur at first, but after the
-organs become accustomed to their new function this will wear off, and
-there will be no seminal loss.
-
-All men in the Oneida community realised that this control was a
-necessary attainment if they would be regarded with favor by the women
-in the group. Its accomplishment was necessary to their mutual
-happiness, and they had to learn it. If there is a method which in
-practice expresses the highest mutual affection and reveals one’s own
-strength and power, then by all means let mankind know it.
-
-There is no earthly reason why men and women should not study the laws
-of sex expression as any other science is studied, and it should be a
-study not only intellectual, but of experience and adjustment. If, as is
-claimed, the experience of this method must be practised on a higher
-plane of thought than the purely physical, then certainly it must tend
-toward a finer companionship and understanding between men and women
-than the fleeting physical gratification prevailing at present. If there
-is anything which controverts the traditional uncleanliness previously
-attached to the sex relation, if there is anything which brings a
-blending of body and spirit or an ennoblement of the character of the
-individual, then by all means let us have it in its fullest detail, and
-let this revolting ignorance and prudery holding sway over men and
-women’s minds so long be swept away for all time. Let us have light,
-through discussion, experience, and adjustment.
-
-There are few men who desire to expose the object of their affection to
-the burden of bearing children faster than her health will permit. They
-realise a woman’s strength is greatly undermined and her beauty and
-grace fast ebbing away; but ignorance and tradition have him in their
-grip. He knows nothing about the means to prevent it, and allows the one
-he loves best to wither and fade before his eyes.
-
-It is especially necessary for the woman to be free from the mental
-dread of pregnancy. There is nothing so productive of nervous disorders
-or so likely to decrease the sexual attraction or magnetation as fear
-and anxious thought. Perfect confidence in the man’s ability to control
-himself is essential to the perfection and desired results of these
-methods. Just as one begins, so can one develop. Young men and women
-about to enter alliances and desirous to establish a lasting affection
-and higher bond between themselves can easily put this method into
-practice and control the sex functions. The more magnetic the
-individual, the greater the sex attractions between those who love, and
-the stronger the bond will grow between them, through this “magnetation”
-method.
-
-The expression and adjustment of all theories is so largely personal
-that special regulations can scarcely be given. The road to science and
-the great natural laws are discovered through experience: there is no
-education but that of experience.
-
-
-
-
-                 TESTED THEORIES AND PRACTICAL TRUTHS.
-
-
-               FROM THOSE WHO HAVE PRACTISED THIS METHOD.
-
-I am a young man twenty-four years of age, enjoying the most vigorous
-health. For two years after becoming engaged I delayed marriage, simply
-because I did not think my income sufficient to support a wife and the
-children which I regarded as an inevitable consequence. Happily for me,
-a friend who knew my circumstances wrote me about male continence. The
-ideas contained in this discovery were so different from all my
-preconceived ideas of what constituted marital happiness that I was
-inclined to reject them as utterly impracticable and absurd. But the
-more I thought of the matter, the more clearly I saw that if there was a
-possibility of these new ideas being true, they were exactly adapted to
-a man in my circumstances, and that they made my marriage immediately
-practicable.
-
-The wholly new thought, that retaining the vital seminal secretion in
-the body, instead of spending it recklessly, might make a man stronger,
-cleaner, and better, also seemed to me not irrational. With some
-misgivings, therefore, I ventured upon marriage; and, thanks to this
-practice, it has been found a complete success. I have had a continuous
-honeymoon for four years, besides having the daily use of my wife’s
-invaluable services in my business, and have never been conscious of any
-irksome constraint or asceticism in my sexual experience, and my
-self-control and strength, mental and physical, have greatly increased
-since my marriage. In the light of my own experience, I regard the idea
-that the seminal fluid is a secretion that must be got rid of as being
-the most pernicious and fatal one that can possibly be taught to young
-people.
-
-                                                                   F. G.
-
-
-                         FROM A MAN OF SEVENTY.
-
-My age is seventy years, and, thanks to male continence, my health is
-good and I am as vigorous sexually as I ever was. My only regret is that
-I was not informed of it earlier in life. It is not only a splendid
-sanitary measure, but is a promoter of pleasure and the greatest
-harmoniser of domestic life that I know. It is my decided opinion that
-where this practice is adhered to, except where reproduction is desired,
-strife and contention, separation and divorce would never occur. It
-seems to me that no one who is seeking improvement would, after
-experiencing this practice, ever wish to go back to the crude sensual
-practice in whose wake follow satiety, exhaustion, disgust, and remorse.
-
-The waste of vital and nerve force attending the usual custom of
-intercourse is, in my opinion, a leading cause of the craving for
-alcohol and tobacco; while in this new practice both parties, if
-magnetism exists, experience a renewal of life force that is in the
-highest degree wholesome. If young men would abide by this practice they
-would find that their self-control would be immensely enhanced in every
-department of life, and that they would retain the vigor and enjoyment
-of their sexual nature long after the generality of men have become
-impotent.
-
-                                                                W. S. F.
-
-
-                             FROM A WOMAN.
-
-Since my husband became acquainted with this new theory he has endeared
-himself to me a hundredfold; and although our so-called “honeymoon” was
-passed five years ago, it was no more real and far less lasting than the
-ecstatic, the unspeakable happiness which is now continually mine. My
-prosaic and sometimes indifferent husband has changed by a heavenly
-magic into an ardent and entrancing lover, for whose coming I watch with
-all the tender raptures of a schoolgirl. His very step sends a thrill
-through me, for I know that my beloved will clasp me in his arms and
-cover me with kisses, such as only the most enthusiastic lover could
-give. And though the years lapse, I cannot see or feel any change in the
-way he cherishes me. To each other we are continually objects of the
-deepest reverence and the most sacred mystery. Our affection deepens,
-our romance seems as sure and as enduring as the stars. I date my
-marriage from the time that he became a student of Zugassent, for that
-was the beginning of our assured happiness.
-
-But it is not alone as a cherishing lover that my husband has become the
-crown of my happiness. He has grown perceptibly nobler in character, in
-purpose, and in strength; so that besides a lover I have a strong
-friend, a wise councillor, and my happiness is complete.
-
-                                                                L. S. T.
-
-
-                      A HUSBAND OF FIFTEEN YEARS.
-
-It gives me happiness to testify to the beneficial effects of this
-method, because I am earnestly convinced that no other discovery in
-physical science has ever been made which is of such importance to the
-welfare of the human race. In proportion as I have followed this method
-life has become wholesome and happy. It avoids the opposite evils of
-asceticism and self-indulgence, and does more than _any other single
-thing_ to make the marriage relation a perpetual courtship. I am a
-husband of fifteen years, and speak of matters that I know.
-
-                                                                      F.
-
-
-                        A LETTER TO J. H. NOYES.
-
-This Yankee nation claims to be a nation of inventors, but the discovery
-of male continence puts you, in my mind, at the head of all inventors.
-There has been no higher conservation of force than that realised by
-this method, and I am confident that the blessings which will flow from
-it cannot be measured by those which have followed the steam engine and
-the electric telegraph.
-
-                                                      Yours truly, —— ——
-
-
-                               A FRIEND.
-
-A school friend of mine who lived in a large manufacturing town in New
-York State, and has been married five years, had learned during the
-first months of marriage this method of birth control. She was radiant
-with happiness; did not desire a child until they had made provision for
-the future. Husband worked ten hours in the electrical works, after
-which he played a cornet in a concert, which kept him until after
-midnight every night. Such long hours of labor would deplete and exhaust
-the average man, but this fellow was as radiant and strong as one could
-picture. Both claimed it is the practice of this method to which they
-owe their health, strength, and happiness.
-
-
-                             A GRANDMOTHER.
-
-A grandmother came from San Francisco to assist at the birth of a
-grandchild. Had been married thirty-five years, but looked like a girl
-of twenty-eight in figure and color. I was amazed at the vivacity and
-eagerness and joyous health of this woman. Every day she received one or
-two letters from her husband, who had remained in San Francisco; and
-from part of them which she read to me one would think he was some
-ardent and forlorn lover of eighteen. She claimed she had always
-practised this method, and knew of a few others who practised it, and
-found its practice superior to any other. She was the most beautiful
-sexually alive woman I have ever known, and the most modest. “True
-modesty is a sentiment which springs, not from indifference or aversion
-to the sexual offices, but from a delicate and reverent appreciation of
-their value.”

-Creating the works from print editions not protected by U.S. copyright
-law means that no one owns a United States copyright in these works,
-so the Foundation (and you!) can copy and distribute it in the United
-States without permission and without paying copyright
-royalties. Special rules, set forth in the General Terms of Use part
-of this license, apply to copying and distributing Project
-Gutenberg-tm electronic works to protect the PROJECT GUTENBERG-tm
-concept and trademark. Project Gutenberg is a registered trademark,
-and may not be used if you charge for the eBooks, unless you receive
-specific permission. If you do not charge anything for copies of this
-eBook, complying with the rules is very easy. You may use this eBook
-for nearly any purpose such as creation of derivative works, reports,
-performances and research. They may be modified and printed and given
-away--you may do practically ANYTHING in the United States with eBooks
-not protected by U.S. copyright law. Redistribution is subject to the
-trademark license, especially commercial redistribution.

-START: FULL LICENSE
-
-THE FULL PROJECT GUTENBERG LICENSE
-PLEASE READ THIS BEFORE YOU DISTRIBUTE OR USE THIS WORK
-
-To protect the Project Gutenberg-tm mission of promoting the free
-distribution of electronic works, by using or distributing this work
-(or any other work associated in any way with the phrase "Project
-Gutenberg"), you agree to comply with all the terms of the Full
-Project Gutenberg-tm License available with this file or online at
-www.gutenberg.org/license.
-
-Section 1. General Terms of Use and Redistributing Project
-Gutenberg-tm electronic works
-
-1.A. By reading or using any part of this Project Gutenberg-tm
-electronic work, you indicate that you have read, understand, agree to
-and accept all the terms of this license and intellectual property
-(trademark/copyright) agreement. If you do not agree to abide by all
-the terms of this agreement, you must cease using and return or
-destroy all copies of Project Gutenberg-tm electronic works in your
-possession. If you paid a fee for obtaining a copy of or access to a
-Project Gutenberg-tm electronic work and you do not agree to be bound
-by the terms of this agreement, you may obtain a refund from the
-person or entity to whom you paid the fee as set forth in paragraph
-1.E.8.
-
-1.B. "Project Gutenberg" is a registered trademark. It may only be
-used on or associated in any way with an electronic work by people who
-agree to be bound by the terms of this agreement. There are a few
-things that you can do with most Project Gutenberg-tm electronic works
-even without complying with the full terms of this agreement. See
-paragraph 1.C below. There are a lot of things you can do with Project
-Gutenberg-tm electronic works if you follow the terms of this
-agreement and help preserve free future access to Project Gutenberg-tm
-electronic works. See paragraph 1.E below.
-
-1.C. The Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation ("the
-Foundation" or PGLAF), owns a compilation copyright in the collection
-of Project Gutenberg-tm electronic works. Nearly all the individual
-works in the collection are in the public domain in the United
-States. If an individual work is unprotected by copyright law in the
-United States and you are located in the United States, we do not
-claim a right to prevent you from copying, distributing, performing,
-displaying or creating derivative works based on the work as long as
-all references to Project Gutenberg are removed. Of course, we hope
-that you will support the Project Gutenberg-tm mission of promoting
-free access to electronic works by freely sharing Project Gutenberg-tm
-works in compliance with the terms of this agreement for keeping the
-Project Gutenberg-tm name associated with the work. You can easily
-comply with the terms of this agreement by keeping this work in the
-same format with its attached full Project Gutenberg-tm License when
-you share it without charge with others.
-
-1.D. The copyright laws of the place where you are located also govern
-what you can do with this work. Copyright laws in most countries are
-in a constant state of change. If you are outside the United States,
-check the laws of your country in addition to the terms of this
-agreement before downloading, copying, displaying, performing,
-distributing or creating derivative works based on this work or any
-other Project Gutenberg-tm work. The Foundation makes no
-representations concerning the copyright status of any work in any
-country outside the United States.
-
-1.E. Unless you have removed all references to Project Gutenberg:
-
-1.E.1. The following sentence, with active links to, or other
-immediate access to, the full Project Gutenberg-tm License must appear
-prominently whenever any copy of a Project Gutenberg-tm work (any work
-on which the phrase "Project Gutenberg" appears, or with which the
-phrase "Project Gutenberg" is associated) is accessed, displayed,
-performed, viewed, copied or distributed:
-
-  This eBook is for the use of anyone anywhere in the United States and
-  most other parts of the world at no cost and with almost no
-  restrictions whatsoever. You may copy it, give it away or re-use it
-  under the terms of the Project Gutenberg License included with this
-  eBook or online at www.gutenberg.org. If you are not located in the
-  United States, you'll have to check the laws of the country where you
-  are located before using this ebook.
-
-1.E.2. If an individual Project Gutenberg-tm electronic work is
-derived from texts not protected by U.S. copyright law (does not
-contain a notice indicating that it is posted with permission of the
-copyright holder), the work can be copied and distributed to anyone in
-the United States without paying any fees or charges. If you are
-redistributing or providing access to a work with the phrase "Project
-Gutenberg" associated with or appearing on the work, you must comply
-either with the requirements of paragraphs 1.E.1 through 1.E.7 or
-obtain permission for the use of the work and the Project Gutenberg-tm
-trademark as set forth in paragraphs 1.E.8 or 1.E.9.
-
-1.E.3. If an individual Project Gutenberg-tm electronic work is posted
-with the permission of the copyright holder, your use and distribution
-must comply with both paragraphs 1.E.1 through 1.E.7 and any
-additional terms imposed by the copyright holder. Additional terms
-will be linked to the Project Gutenberg-tm License for all works
-posted with the permission of the copyright holder found at the
-beginning of this work.
-
-1.E.4. Do not unlink or detach or remove the full Project Gutenberg-tm
-License terms from this work, or any files containing a part of this
-work or any other work associated with Project Gutenberg-tm.
-
-1.E.5. Do not copy, display, perform, distribute or redistribute this
-electronic work, or any part of this electronic work, without
-prominently displaying the sentence set forth in paragraph 1.E.1 with
-active links or immediate access to the full terms of the Project
-Gutenberg-tm License.
-
-1.E.6. You may convert to and distribute this work in any binary,
-compressed, marked up, nonproprietary or proprietary form, including
-any word processing or hypertext form. However, if you provide access
-to or distribute copies of a Project Gutenberg-tm work in a format
-other than "Plain Vanilla ASCII" or other format used in the official
-version posted on the official Project Gutenberg-tm web site
-(www.gutenberg.org), you must, at no additional cost, fee or expense
-to the user, provide a copy, a means of exporting a copy, or a means
-of obtaining a copy upon request, of the work in its original "Plain
-Vanilla ASCII" or other form. Any alternate format must include the
-full Project Gutenberg-tm License as specified in paragraph 1.E.1.
-
-1.E.7. Do not charge a fee for access to, viewing, displaying,
-performing, copying or distributing any Project Gutenberg-tm works
-unless you comply with paragraph 1.E.8 or 1.E.9.
-
-1.E.8. You may charge a reasonable fee for copies of or providing
-access to or distributing Project Gutenberg-tm electronic works
-provided that
-
-* You pay a royalty fee of 20% of the gross profits you derive from
-  the use of Project Gutenberg-tm works calculated using the method
-  you already use to calculate your applicable taxes. The fee is owed
-  to the owner of the Project Gutenberg-tm trademark, but he has
-  agreed to donate royalties under this paragraph to the Project
-  Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation. Royalty payments must be paid
-  within 60 days following each date on which you prepare (or are
-  legally required to prepare) your periodic tax returns. Royalty
-  payments should be clearly marked as such and sent to the Project
-  Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation at the address specified in
-  Section 4, "Information about donations to the Project Gutenberg
-  Literary Archive Foundation."
-
-* You provide a full refund of any money paid by a user who notifies
-  you in writing (or by e-mail) within 30 days of receipt that s/he
-  does not agree to the terms of the full Project Gutenberg-tm
-  License. You must require such a user to return or destroy all
-  copies of the works possessed in a physical medium and discontinue
-  all use of and all access to other copies of Project Gutenberg-tm
-  works.
-
-* You provide, in accordance with paragraph 1.F.3, a full refund of
-  any money paid for a work or a replacement copy, if a defect in the
-  electronic work is discovered and reported to you within 90 days of
-  receipt of the work.
-
-* You comply with all other terms of this agreement for free
-  distribution of Project Gutenberg-tm works.
-
-1.E.9. If you wish to charge a fee or distribute a Project
-Gutenberg-tm electronic work or group of works on different terms than
-are set forth in this agreement, you must obtain permission in writing
-from both the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation and The
-Project Gutenberg Trademark LLC, the owner of the Project Gutenberg-tm
-trademark. Contact the Foundation as set forth in Section 3 below.
-
-1.F.
-
-1.F.1. Project Gutenberg volunteers and employees expend considerable
-effort to identify, do copyright research on, transcribe and proofread
-works not protected by U.S. copyright law in creating the Project
-Gutenberg-tm collection. Despite these efforts, Project Gutenberg-tm
-electronic works, and the medium on which they may be stored, may
-contain "Defects," such as, but not limited to, incomplete, inaccurate
-or corrupt data, transcription errors, a copyright or other
-intellectual property infringement, a defective or damaged disk or
-other medium, a computer virus, or computer codes that damage or
-cannot be read by your equipment.
-
-1.F.2. LIMITED WARRANTY, DISCLAIMER OF DAMAGES - Except for the "Right
-of Replacement or Refund" described in paragraph 1.F.3, the Project
-Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation, the owner of the Project
-Gutenberg-tm trademark, and any other party distributing a Project
-Gutenberg-tm electronic work under this agreement, disclaim all
-liability to you for damages, costs and expenses, including legal
-fees. YOU AGREE THAT YOU HAVE NO REMEDIES FOR NEGLIGENCE, STRICT
-LIABILITY, BREACH OF WARRANTY OR BREACH OF CONTRACT EXCEPT THOSE
-PROVIDED IN PARAGRAPH 1.F.3. YOU AGREE THAT THE FOUNDATION, THE
-TRADEMARK OWNER, AND ANY DISTRIBUTOR UNDER THIS AGREEMENT WILL NOT BE
-LIABLE TO YOU FOR ACTUAL, DIRECT, INDIRECT, CONSEQUENTIAL, PUNITIVE OR
-INCIDENTAL DAMAGES EVEN IF YOU GIVE NOTICE OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH
-DAMAGE.
-
-1.F.3. LIMITED RIGHT OF REPLACEMENT OR REFUND - If you discover a
-defect in this electronic work within 90 days of receiving it, you can
-receive a refund of the money (if any) you paid for it by sending a
-written explanation to the person you received the work from. If you
-received the work on a physical medium, you must return the medium
-with your written explanation. The person or entity that provided you
-with the defective work may elect to provide a replacement copy in
-lieu of a refund. If you received the work electronically, the person
-or entity providing it to you may choose to give you a second
-opportunity to receive the work electronically in lieu of a refund. If
-the second copy is also defective, you may demand a refund in writing
-without further opportunities to fix the problem.
-
-1.F.4. Except for the limited right of replacement or refund set forth
-in paragraph 1.F.3, this work is provided to you 'AS-IS', WITH NO
-OTHER WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING BUT NOT
-LIMITED TO WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR ANY PURPOSE.
-
-1.F.5. Some states do not allow disclaimers of certain implied
-warranties or the exclusion or limitation of certain types of
-damages. If any disclaimer or limitation set forth in this agreement
-violates the law of the state applicable to this agreement, the
-agreement shall be interpreted to make the maximum disclaimer or
-limitation permitted by the applicable state law. The invalidity or
-unenforceability of any provision of this agreement shall not void the
-remaining provisions.
-
-1.F.6. INDEMNITY - You agree to indemnify and hold the Foundation, the
-trademark owner, any agent or employee of the Foundation, anyone
-providing copies of Project Gutenberg-tm electronic works in
-accordance with this agreement, and any volunteers associated with the
-production, promotion and distribution of Project Gutenberg-tm
-electronic works, harmless from all liability, costs and expenses,
-including legal fees, that arise directly or indirectly from any of
-the following which you do or cause to occur: (a) distribution of this
-or any Project Gutenberg-tm work, (b) alteration, modification, or
-additions or deletions to any Project Gutenberg-tm work, and (c) any
-Defect you cause.
-
-Section 2. Information about the Mission of Project Gutenberg-tm
-
-Project Gutenberg-tm is synonymous with the free distribution of
-electronic works in formats readable by the widest variety of
-computers including obsolete, old, middle-aged and new computers. It
-exists because of the efforts of hundreds of volunteers and donations
-from people in all walks of life.
-
-Volunteers and financial support to provide volunteers with the
-assistance they need are critical to reaching Project Gutenberg-tm's
-goals and ensuring that the Project Gutenberg-tm collection will
-remain freely available for generations to come. In 2001, the Project
-Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation was created to provide a secure
-and permanent future for Project Gutenberg-tm and future
-generations. To learn more about the Project Gutenberg Literary
-Archive Foundation and how your efforts and donations can help, see
-Sections 3 and 4 and the Foundation information page at
-www.gutenberg.org
-
-
-
-Section 3. Information about the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation
-
-The Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation is a non profit
-501(c)(3) educational corporation organized under the laws of the
-state of Mississippi and granted tax exempt status by the Internal
-Revenue Service. The Foundation's EIN or federal tax identification
-number is 64-6221541. Contributions to the Project Gutenberg Literary
-Archive Foundation are tax deductible to the full extent permitted by
-U.S. federal laws and your state's laws.
-
-The Foundation's principal office is in Fairbanks, Alaska, with the
-mailing address: PO Box 750175, Fairbanks, AK 99775, but its
-volunteers and employees are scattered throughout numerous

-
-Section 4. Information about Donations to the Project Gutenberg
-Literary Archive Foundation
-
-Project Gutenberg-tm depends upon and cannot survive without wide
-spread public support and donations to carry out its mission of
-increasing the number of public domain and licensed works that can be
-freely distributed in machine readable form accessible by the widest
-array of equipment including outdated equipment. Many small donations
-($1 to $5,000) are particularly important to maintaining tax exempt
-status with the IRS.
-
-The Foundation is committed to complying with the laws regulating
-charities and charitable donations in all 50 states of the United
-States. Compliance requirements are not uniform and it takes a
-considerable effort, much paperwork and many fees to meet and keep up
-with these requirements. We do not solicit donations in locations
-where we have not received written confirmation of compliance. To SEND
-DONATIONS or determine the status of compliance for any particular
-state visit www.gutenberg.org/donate
-
-While we cannot and do not solicit contributions from states where we
-have not met the solicitation requirements, we know of no prohibition
-against accepting unsolicited donations from donors in such states who
-approach us with offers to donate.
-
-International donations are gratefully accepted, but we cannot make
-any statements concerning tax treatment of donations received from
-outside the United States. U.S. laws alone swamp our small staff.
-
-Please check the Project Gutenberg Web pages for current donation
-methods and addresses. Donations are accepted in a number of other
-ways including checks, online payments and credit card donations. To
-donate, please visit: www.gutenberg.org/donate
-
-Section 5. General Information About Project Gutenberg-tm electronic works.
-
-Professor Michael S. Hart was the originator of the Project
-Gutenberg-tm concept of a library of electronic works that could be
-freely shared with anyone. For forty years, he produced and
-distributed Project Gutenberg-tm eBooks with only a loose network of
-volunteer support.
-
-Project Gutenberg-tm eBooks are often created from several printed
-editions, all of which are confirmed as not protected by copyright in
-the U.S. unless a copyright notice is included. Thus, we do not
-necessarily keep eBooks in compliance with any particular paper
-edition.
-
-Most people start at our Web site which has the main PG search
-facility: www.gutenberg.org
-
-This Web site includes information about Project Gutenberg-tm,
-including how to make donations to the Project Gutenberg Literary
-Archive Foundation, how to help produce our new eBooks, and how to
-subscribe to our email newsletter to hear about new eBooks.
