WORSE THAN WAR.
Internal Regions of tho Buddhists and
Mohammedans. r....,

The Internal regions of Buddhism
are horrible. They comprise great
he'll and 1876 lesser bells. In these
hells, according to the sculptures OF
the Buddhist temples. men are ground
TO powder and their dust turned into
ants and heas and spiders. They are
pestled in a mortar. The hungry eat
redhot iron balls. The thirsty drink
molten iron.
Islamism says OF the Internal re.
gjons: They who believe not shall
have garments Of fire fitted for them.
Boiling water shall be poured on their
heads and on their skins, and they
shall be benten with maces Of IRON.
In the Scandinavian mythology, the
mythology OF Odm and Thor, we ars
told that "in Nastrond there is n vast
and direful structure, with doors that
face the north. 1t is formed entirely
OF the backs Of serpents, waited to-
gether like wickerwork. Bot the ser.
pents' heads are turned toward the in
side Of the hall. and they continually
send forth floods OF venom, in which
wade all those who commit murder or
forswear themselves"
