THE Lie Beyond aha Grave" Rising
the speaker said:
THE great question OF the age rs the
nnal destiny OF the human race. Lie
and death are two nipples upon th" ocean
Of existence. Death is natural and p"o-
pie OF all ages and races. whether lliudooS
or Parsccs do not fear death. No pco-
pie have such fear ot death as mad the
Christians.
Death a Transition.
"Therc is no such thing as aunihila-
ton. that j.. the transformation OF some
thing into nothing. The old CalyiniSuc
doctrine OF eternal hell tormcuis has
died out of tho mind OF the intelligent.
The thinkers. scholars and scientists ot
this age look upon death as transition
into n higher and more progressive state
OF being.
"Thc purcr the lie horc the happier
beyond the grave continued the speak
or. Infants are received at death into
the hands Of loving angels TO unfold into
perfect form OF manhood. There are no
idiots as th" word Is commonly used. !

where so-callcd IDIOTS are developed into
intelligent people.
Suicides arc very common. The daily

The wicked, like Judas. 60 to thcir

their immediate condition after death;
they suffer mental and moral TomorSc

fact proves that there Is progress for all

First Lecture.
Before a large audience. representing
f.,rf,., -
! DIR. PEBBLES delivered his hrst lecture
| ON "Thc East India Magic at the hall
| i'm the afternoon. He described some Of
| the experiments in magical phenomena
| which he had personally Witnessed In the
| far east. and told some wonderful tales
| Thcs" experiments were performed At
different times by different adopts in
| broad daylight. and were profound rclt-
gious ceremonies. accompanied by pray
ers and lamentations. he said. When he
cried out In amazcment. Tell me, o
adept. tell me how YOU 10 those things
| tho adept laughed sardonicaliy and re-
piled:
''You call yourself Christian and n
western man. and yet YOU come 10 us
and ask us how we do these things
One adept. however. the speaker said
went so FAR ms 10 givo this explanation:
Il believe In Brahm, whom you call God.
who moves all the world and the stars
by his VIII IN harmony. Just in the ratio
| that ! live Brahm-lke. crush out the an
! mal. liyc In the spiritual I'm the same
ratio I can move these smaller things IN
this room"
The adept asserted, the lecturer said.
that he used the smoke from the briHr
incense as a fulcrum and through it's vi
bTatlOns he controlled these material
things. According 10 the doctor, the
adopts possess these superior powers
because they live for them.
Condemns Eating Of Meats.
DR. PEBBLES condemned the eating u
meats in no uncertain terms. we can
never rise above the animal on q meat
diet" said he. Neither can we attain
the same spiritual power on a meat diet
as on a vegetable diet. The people Of
India and other eastern countries con
slider the people here MS heathcns. due 10
the fact that they burn and eat meat"
This country is infested with more
thugs than are the eastern countries, DR..
PEBBLES also said
