The Unseen World

The universe is not empty because
our eyes cannot see lis wonders. We
have learned enough to know this.
Open the eyes of a blind man, and
what a realm of color, form, and
motion would be disclosed to him
Aid your sight by a microsc pc OF
telescope, and what an infnity of
wonder would be revealed to you
So give to man finer power of pre-
ception than that he now has, let
but that be developed, and this world
would be even more to him than the
world of light to the opened eyes of
him that was blind. There are Wis
ions greater than these eyes have
seen, for us yet to see; there are
sounds, forms, color, of a glory now
incredible, yet to be made known.
We exist in realm of force and
life, infinite in extent and diversity.
Let soul be separated from its
present body, it will be but to COM
mence new career of existence, to
form for itself perhaps a new body,
of far finer material than it could
use on this level of life, to develop a
higher consciousness, and to gain
higher thoughts and purer feelings
in interaction with other modes of
being, to become more true to sub
lime ideal, to take a farther step in
its advance from the lower past to
the glorious future. To me. human
life is but the pilgrimage of a soul
toward an infinitely far away goal
through an infinite number of stages
of existence, by an infinite series of
achievements, whose progress in the
future will be measured by the
strength secured in each present and
past, and whose blessedness hereaf-
ter will be attained through each
preparation for each hereafter it
may make.
We are not then prisoners of sense,
but, as we devoutly claim, children
of God. To us, matter is the shad-
ow, and spirit the substance. We
are souls il; and under this divine con-
seriousness, the apostle Paul's para
dox has become our sublimest truth.
The things we see are temporal and
seeming the things unseen are those
which are real and eternal Chris
tian Register.
The HIGHER HOPE.-Just as long
as we are shrouded in a materialized
maze of hooking problems, we shall
be constantly seeking to find M te ial-
lied proof of immortality. But let
us rise above this mere coarse con-
fusion. Do not with childish stub
bornness and cynic sport argue your
selves out of assured spiritual exist
ence, and you Will never fall to zero
or share in that frozen, chilly, crvs-
tallized, bloodless view of life which
is the bane and despair of all who
indulge it. For this treasured hope
of Immortality is the only vital and
irresistible ambition which pushes
and raises humanity above the brute,
the shining line which divides be-
tween the animal and the man. Let
US at all times keep bravely and firm
ly and spiritually to this one immor-
tai self-assertion and self-respect
for IN this pure and spiritualized
noble manhood and womanhood we
maintain ourselves above the zero of
materialism, and carry with us the
birthright to the higher life in the
divine presence of the Eternal.
ALL SORTS.
