BEYOND THE GRAVE.
Victor Hugo's Views on the Question
Il

Victor Huso's Views on the Question
of Future Life.
Victor Hugo's opinion on the ques.
ton of life beyond the grave was a
remarkable one. The great French
man was firmly convinced that he
would meet all his friends In future
world. He was equally sure that he
had always existed from the ante
diluvian times. when the Creator plac-
ed him on earth. He believed that he
would exist forever, inasmuch as he
felt in his soul thousands of hymns,
dramas and poems that had never
found expression.
When the atheists would say to him,
THE proof that you will not exist in
the future is that you did not exist in
the past" Hugo would answer:
'Who told YOU | did not exist in the
past centui .es? You win say that is
the legend of the ages. The poet has
written. Life Is fairy tale twice writ
ten He might have said thousand
times written. You do not believe in
the doctrine of surviving personalities
for the reason that you do not recollect
your anterior existence. But how can
the recollection of vanished ages re-
main imprinted on your memory when
you do not remember thousand and
one scenes and events OF your pres
ent life? Since 1902 there have been
ten Victor Hugos in me- Do you think
that l can recall all their actions and
all their thoughts?
The tomb is dark, and when / shall
haze passed the tomb to emerge into
light once more all these Victor Hugos
will be almost wholly strangers to me,
but IT will always be the same SOUL

on the households or the neighDornood.
These visits were looked forward to
with eagerness by the pious Swedes,
and it was considered an act of gross
est discourtesy to bar the door, for
whatever reason, against a holy man
Consequently If family left home the
key was always put out against the ar
rival Of the priest Meat and drink
were left, and should the holy man
stop at vacant house he entered, re-
freshed himself. left his blessing in the
form OF a candle or bottle Of holy
water or bit OF consecrated green and
passed. Thus the custom originated,
and, although these quaint villages
have become towns and travelling
priests have passed away and the in
fiux Of other nations has modernized
Sweden and brought the evil Of theft
with 1t, the door keys still hang out as
evidence Of trust and open doored hos
pitality.
A thief seldom takes down one Of
the keys and enters, for there Is the
uncertainty about the absence of the
AtoiotiiIo olohNh VI " Apio MN biSN'
and the knowledge that an exposed
door key may merely mean that the
owner has stepped across to the store
and will return any minute makes
tampering with property risky bust
ness

one that Swedes are one Of the most
honest people on the face Of the globe,

be foolhardy tempting Of misfortune

he writes, ''the airgonauts have passed

through the air, perched on the top of
a tree; some passengers climbed up
