veals the manners AID habits of the heav-
emily beings. DR.. Newbrough then went
into description of how he wrote the work,
and said he knew nothing of any language
but English, and was acquainted with
modern spiritualism, but does not belong
to any sect. He does not belong to any
church, for he had never found any to suit
him. While writing the book he found
that every morning from quarter to half
an hour after sunrise, he was compelled to
take his seat at his desk and there wrote
without any volition of his own. He found
that his hands moved independent of his
mind, and he ives not conscious of what he
had written. While writing bright light
settled on his hands and when the light
faded away his hands became cold, which
the light told him was signal for him
to stop. When he tried to read what he
had written the light told him not to do so,
so he remained in ignorance until he had
completed the book, which took him near
~ year. In another column of this
mornings GLOBE will be found a somewhat
full, interesting but not an entirely appro-
batory criticism of this really remarkable
book.
WHY is it that So many persons nova
days, more than in former times, die sud-
denly of alleged heart disease: Is it due
to our modern mode Of life, hurry, worry,
corroding care and vexation of spirit?
Business is done, and life regulated, or
rather demoralized by the modes of the
time. Business is done by steam and cleo
tricity. The locomotive and the telegraph
keep men in a constant fever of hurry,
worry and excitement. There is a limit to
human endurance. That limit being
reached, the man falls. An eminent ply
stefan in New York city, speaking Of the
abnormal strain put upon men by increas-
ing, unremitting care, exertion and anx-
iety, says t'great care is necessary in mat
tiers of this kind for people who are suffer
ing from heart difficulties, either latent or
developed. There are among the business
and professional men Of New York those
who are more or less afflicted with some
form of heart disease, which in many cases
has been induced by severe attacks of rheu-
matism or kidney disease. A case of heart
disease cannot be attributed alone to as
cending stairs. OF course the first effect of
running or rapidly ascending is shortness
of breath. The legs and arms move quick
~, while the motion of the heart is slower
and does not catch up. By this load of
blood from the limbs is suddenly thrown
upon the heart before it moves rapidly
enough to dispose of it. This burden sud
denly put upon tie heart and the tempo
| rary congestion OF the lungs cause imper-
feet action, and the victim experiences
| what is known as shortness of breath.
This is the effect upon person running
up the stairs of the elevated railroad sta
| tons to catch trains. If the heart IS per-
fectly sound this over-exertion will not
produce disease. But the thousands Of
persons with weak hearts should move care
fully. and miss train rather than make
themselves uncomfortable
Nh. MOODY while speaking recently On
the second coming of Christ, in Glasgow.
Scotland, said: IF this doctrine was to
bring young converts into fog, why did
Paul write SO much about it? There are
! only 260 chapters in the New Testament,
and yet 3ls different passages refer to our
Lords coming. What makes the doctrine
SO sweet in the 18th chapter, Corinthians?
Why, it not only speaks of Christ burial
and resurrection, but tells US of his coming.
Behold shew you mystery; we shall not
all sleep, but we shall all be changed! Some
Christians would never taste death. but
would be caught up and changed. We have
the same authority for his coming back,
that We have for his burial. He went up
| unexpectedly, and will return unexpected
ly. 1t we were ready for death. of
course we would be ready for the return of
our Lord, but we would rather look for his
coming than for anything else in the
world Our Lords second coming was not
SO mysterious and wonderful as his first
coming. If some ono had declared fifty
years before ChrisS's birth, that he was to
be born in manger, that he was to be re-
iected and crucifed, he did not think
there was man on the face of the earth
who would have believed the story-it
would be too incredible. Although he
came suddenly, We would meet him with
Joy. The wife whose husband had been
| away received a communication that he
was coming; and though she did not know
the exact time, yet how glad would she be
when he returned. So it would be when
| our absent Lord returned. It would not
be long, because With him 1000 years
were as one day. Looking forward
was the attribute of Gods children from
all time. For 1000 years they looked for
the promised one, and for nearly 1000 we
have been looking for his return. There
was not anything tina: would take man
more out of the whirlpool of this world
than this doctrine. Mr.. Moody pitied
from his inmost heart, any man who could
not see this blessed, comforting doctrine,
that our Lord is coming to set up his king
dom, which should be from the river to the
