eternity. The "medium" tells me that
many of them have dined several times
to her own personal knowledge, which
fact, as l look at her, | cannot doubt.
| was very curious to know upon
what the spirits feed. Putting the,
question to my Own-my "medium"--
she placed her fingers on my lips and
told me to look. "0h! Pleasure ex-

liquid of these hazel eyes of timer"
Yes, and as ! look | see a vary fat spirit,
dressed in a flowing robe of moon
shine, take the foot of the table. An
other, his wife, modestly at;ired in an
evening dress of woven star light, with

"seance." Touching the intangible
table with his finger tips, he says: "If
there are any representatives hereabout
from the land of flesh, blood, bone and
marrow, will the table please rap three
times?" Up and down goes the table
three times. The third time began to
ask Of what service could be when
presto! all vanished, and l was only
gazing at the besntilul eyelashes on my
mediums upper liz.
