This was really an advertising medium for Durville's Fondation Henri Durville in Neuilly and its "Medicine psycho-naturiste," which offered physiotherapeutic treatments (massage, light, hot air, "kinesitherapie"), psychic treatments (rational or emotional suggestion, auto-suggestion, magnetism), etc. The foundation offered "treatment of organic and psychic illnesses and of mental and sentimental troubles, without drugs." The journal, mostly written by Henri Durville (1887-1963) and Anne Osmont, contained short articles on prehistoric magic, psychic development, the powers of the soul, miraculous healings, the Convulsionnaires of Saint Medard, psychic formation, higher forces, verbal suggestion, magnetizing of plants, seasonal rites, Tarot and Kabbalah, the cosmic force of love, divination, etc. The journal, however, had the more serious intention of enticing readers to join the Eudiac Order (l'ordre Eudiaque) so they could participate in the beneficial forces sent out by the golden chain of adepts and received by the initiates through their protective Eudianum talisman (an ahkh cross with the side arms raised in a "V"). The details of this order and its wonders were contained in Durville's companion journal Eudia. On the Durvilles generally and l'Ordre Eudiaque, see the note under Eudia.
