tDonbleiack
A Free Moral gent.

The Doublejack is not owned, o
trolled or dominated by any company,
or other institution. Its policies,
statements and assertions are those
of its editor, and the truth is the first
object. No attempt is made by this
paper to defraud or mislead the pub
lie at home nor abroad with wildcat
properties or other fakes. If the
Doublejack says at is, or is not the
reader will learn to know that it is
true. When IA newspaper becomes
generally recognized as unreliable its
field of usefulness is sadly curtailed.

only temporary, and growing less
and less frequent and he will probab-
ly soon entirely.

THERE is still one person meaner

marks about another, and that is the

PHILOSOPHICAL NOTES.


ful n who understands the couul-
tions of the life after death, If he
takes the trouble to adapt himself to
these conditions, sees opening be-
fore him splendid opportunities for
usefulness MS well as of acquiring
fresh knowledge. There is SAID to
he a freshness and vividness and
brilliancy in the life there hat com
pared to his earth life is as the sun-
light to the moonlight. His clear
knowledge gives him a calm conf
dence with which he is able to work
or the good of tn ,se around him who
are ignorant OF the surroundings and
the life that awaits him. The stud
ent of Theosophy may become a
centre of peace and joy unsPeakable
to hundreds of his fellow men, and
may do more goo in "A few years
of that astral existence than ever he
could have done in the longest ply
steal life"
