1t must tend to lift the doer away
from sordid things.
1t seems to me ridiculous to believe
that we shall not be employed at all;
that we shall spend eternity singing
and incoming and reaping rewards we
never earned here; that we are going
to a fairy land of unrealities where
the floors are made of gold and the
skies of sapphireI that we shall play
on harps, all of us Unfortunately,
when down here we hadn't enough ear
for music to distinguish between Yam
kee Doodle and the Doxology. ~
We shall have work, enough of it.
But it will be pleasure unalloyed;
it will count as 1t often does not here.
"The slings and arrows of outrage
Gus fortune will no longer overcome
us.
Friends wii,be tried and true, un-
congeniaI companions removed to
some other mansions among their
own kind. ,si n.
am sure that Mr.. Rockefeller will
rot be engaged in extending his inter-
ests to the damage of all smaller con-
Germs, neither will there be any more
instruction in the Baptist catechism.
I am afraid, moreover, that Mr..
Rockefeller will, find heaven very
dull place, and that many persons who
had great deal less money and in
fluence than he had on earth, will be
too busy with other more congenial
people and things, to have much to
say to him.
God will not punish Mr.. Rockefeller
and his class, not at all; they will
have all that the ,rest have in heaven,
but, owing to the life they have lived
here, and the nature of their pursuits,
they will carry Hell in their breasts.
Do you suppose that men will be
on an intellectual par up there? That
brains will not count? That we shall
all be RACED to the plane of the sim
ply good but stupid?
Not at all, again.
Brains will count, and men will
stand in their associations and work
according to their natural abilities,
but all selfish competition will be elm
mated; ali fraud, wrongful influence,
all unwillingness to fill the place as
signed us by nature.
We shall not be High because we
happen to be able to acquire a COM
modify that is not wanted in Heaven;
and if we were rich here in material
things but poor IN all else, we shall
certainly find ourselves carrying wa
ter over there for some one we
wouldn't invite to a social reception
at our house in Terraville.
Yes sir, we shall wait on the Heav-
emily Great, and nearly to a man they
will be our more modest professional
brother, or the village resident whose
apparently inert life we turned up our
noses at not long syne.
oh, this will be the day for the
poor and good! Gods flash-light will
reveal faces at His Court which were
in the shadow here below.
But, thanks be, each one will accent
his station as ali that he deserved and
could expect, and thanks be, too there
will be a way to work out of the
Hell! way to cultivate the higher
self and to reach place of honor and
ennobling work.

ARE The DEAD ALIvE?"

The second instalment of a series OF
papers entitled: Are the Dead Alive?
appears in the Delineator for Novem-
Der.
1t is written by Fremont Rider, but
is really collaboration containing
specially prepared statements by such
men as, Prof Pho Foa, Sir Oliver
Lodge, Sir VIM. CrOokes, Camille
Flammarion, w. II Stead, Prof. J. A.
Hyslop, victorien sardou, Caesare
Lombroso, Prof. James, DR.. Minot j.
Savage and Andrew Lang.
These men are not only believers in
immortality,--ra hope which belongs to
most of us despite the fact that we
may not be able to base it on scien-
tific data,Lbut they believe they have
had communication with departed
friends and acquaintance, and give
what they consider good proofs of the
exchange of thought, H.s
The matter is interesting anyway,
though it mysti1es us, perhaps be-
cause we know so little about it.
Mysteries are often unprobed GER
tainties; what we cannot reach with
our plumb-Iine we either deny the ex
istence of Eor call a mystery" when
our whole trouble may lie in the fact
that our line is too short, or that we
are dropping. it in the wrong place
Surely a desire so sweet and per-
sonal; a hope so freighted with COM
fort and Joy to the mass of human
beings, must be satisfied in some
way!
ID The love which binds us to our own
household, the association and kim
ship of friends; all the links in this
great, holy bond of human brother
hood, SO short, SO easily snapped, so
inevitably to be ended on earth soon
err or laters7 surely life were vain if
there is not beyond, this another life
to live; a life in which values may
be reversed, itis true. but where we
shall once more meet and greet those
who were friends to us here.
So | believe. that what we do here,
and the way we do it, are largely
making our heaven and hell for the
time when we die into life again.
Those who have no time for any
thing but the acquisition of money,
will find sad lot of time on their
hands over there, and I am afraid
that the need Of money and money
itself, will be left behind When our
good scientists have proven that we
have living friends on some other
sphere, let us hope that we may each
and oil be put in touch with our spi-
ritual affinities.
Then life here will be a race upward
and onward.
am not anxious to believe that we
shall be disembodied spirits yonder, or
that the pleasant material things of
earth are to be torn out of our other
world existence.
think that the Heaven of each man
will be the privilege to carry on the
work he likes and is best fitted to do,
without hindrance of means; to push
his intellectual and spiritual bounds
further and further: to be able to be
all that he knows he is, and to have
reward in the doing.
And the work must be unselfish;
it must be of general benefit to his
fellow men.

IN that region was family known as Seimer
IN our community. In an adjoining county the
same family was known as Pickle, and IN
third, where conventions were more closely
observed il was Pickleseimer. which was the

It, however, and as late 1000 Camden, the
best informed Englishman on the subject OF
families and pedigrees, knew only four in
stances IN al England of private persons with
double names. Royalty was permitted to have
more than one gwen name; and outside OF
royalty the nobility began the double naming
by taking the names Of royalty, other names
not being permitted at FIRST, except as TO Maria
and PosthumuS OF Posthuma. Maria was
given as a middle name 10 both boys and girls
IN honor Of the Virgin Mary, while Posthumus
and Posthuma were the middle names for boys
and girls born after the death Of their fathers.

more they had the more they wanted, so with

ever, Maria and POsthuma were the extra two
and were supposedly allowable. Whenever
doubts arose. as they continued 20 do among
