For more than 50 years, from 1898 to 1953, Elizabeth Towne and her husband William devoted much of their time to publishing the wonderful New Thought personal development magazine "Nautilus." The slogan of their magazine was SELF-HELP THROUGH SELF-KNOWLEDGE.Grab A Copy Click here
Many famous New Thought writers contributed to Nautilus at one time or another. Ella Wheeler Wilcox, Edwin Markham, Anne Warner, Edward B. Warman, Horatio W. Dresser, Orison Swett Marden, Brown Landone, Wallace Wattles, Paul Ellsworth and Genevieve Behrend are among the well-known helpers who contributed some of their best work to Nautilus. William Walker Atkinson, one of the leading New Thought writers of the time, also joined the staff of writers.
Each monthly edition of Nautilus was chock full of inspiring articles, poems, prayers, etc. Some of the serialized articles were later compiled and published as books under the "Elizabeth Towne" imprint, Mrs. Towne generally providing introductions to the compiled works.
Nautilus Magazine was a real success story. The Towne's hard work, determination and perseverance was a living testimony to the fact that anyone can attract success like they did if they put their mind to it.Grab A Copy Click here
People who met Mrs. Towne were at once impressed with the qualities that created her success. She had a message and the brains to present it well. She had high courage, rare judgment, a most attractive personality and with all these an immense capacity for hard work. These qualities mean success in any path in life.
The nautilus is a cephalopod mollusk belonging to the sole surviving genus (Nautilus) of a subclass that flourished 200 million years ago, known as the nautiloids. The spirally coiled shell consists of a series of chambers; as the nautilus grows it secretes larger chambers, sealing off the old ones. A lifeline connects one chamber to the next, so previous rooms are left behind but not forgotten.

It reminds us that growth is part of the Universe's creation, and even as there are profound changes in the world around it, the Chambered Nautilus thrives. The Chambered Nautilus is emblematic of ideas, vision for discovery, rigorous scientific inquiry, innovation, renewal, continuity, change and interconnectedness.
