  Aperture photometry from our own observations and the literature is presented
for the 12\um\ Galaxies in the near infrared J, H and K bands and, in some
cases, in the L band. These data are corrected to ``total'' near--infrared
magnitudes, (with a typical uncertainty of 0.3 magnitudes) for a direct
comparison with our IRAS fluxes which apply to the entire galaxy. The corrected
data are used to derive integrated total NIR and FIR luminosities. We then
combine these with blue photometry and an estimate of the flux contribution
from cold dust at wavelengths longward of 100\um\ to derive the first {\it
bolometric\/} luminosities for a large sample of galaxies. We use
multiwavelength correlations to identify several combinations of infrared
colors which discriminate between Seyfert~1 and~2 galaxies, LINERs, and
ultraluminous starbursts. We find that bolometric luminosity is more closely
proportional to 12-micron luminosity than to 60-micron, 25-micron or optical
luminosity.
