THE SABBATH OR THE LORDS
DAY-WHICH?

Although there is much contro-
versy upon this subject, the scrip
lures are very clear when studied as
a whole. Our discussion of the mat
ter is not to perpetuate controversy,
but to ascertain the truth. Nothing
is settled until it is settled right
/. The First Mention of the Seventh
Day.
The evening and the morning were
the first day (Gen. 1:5.) The eve
ming and the morning constituted
each succeeding day. The Jews reck-
oned day from sunset to sunset.
We will now study Gen. 2:1-3. This
! is case of prolepsis, or the joining
together of two distinct events make
it appear as if they happened at the
same time. God rested in the sew
enth day of creation, thus ending the
first week, But He did not Sane
TIFY the seventh day until the Civ
ing of the law on Mt. Sinai.
In Gen. $500 we have another case.
of prolepsis. Adam named his wife
Eve when she was created; but she
was not the mother of race for
several centuries following that time.
In Matt 10 IA is another case of
prolespis. And Judgas Tscariot, who
betrayed him." Matthew wrote this
over thirty years after the calling of
the twelve apostles. In this passage
he connects the sending out of Judas
and the betrayal of Judas by Judas
one passage, as if the two events
happened at the same time; when in
reality, they happened some three
years apart.
SO, in Gen. 2:2-3, we read that
'hc rested on the seventh day from
the work which he had made. And
God blessed the seventh day and
sanctified it." This account was writ
ten by Moses hundreds of years aft
er the creation. In writing it, Moses
connects five years after events as
If they happened at the same time.
God rested on the seventh day of
the worlds existence. He SANCTI-
EIED it, or set it apart as a special
day, by positive law after the Jews
are led out of Egyptian bondage.
Absolutely there is no record of any
observance of the seventh day DUR
ing the patriarchal dispensation.

So Says Famed Briton, Who
Claims knowledge OF The
Hereafter
BY ALEXANDER HERMAN

NEW YORK, May 8.-Plans and
specifications for heaven and hell
complete from lower to upper levels
are being revealed to Americans IN
series of lectures by Sir Arthur
Conan Doyle, famous author ani cre-
ator Of Sherlock Holmes.
Sir Arthur gets his information
straight from the spirits of those
who have passed on-sDme 2% OF
them. He's not as poetic but much
more specific than Mr.. Milton, Sig
nor Dante and others who have
essayeI descriptions Of the beyond
There is not doubt but what Sir
Arthur believes in spiritualism as
firmly as he believes in eating, drink
ing and sleeping. This bulky Brit
Usher, knighted for his success in
letters, married and the father of a
fine family, conservative in his man
ners as an man of 65, has been
ghosts, talked with them, received
written messages from them-and
that settles every question, as far as
he is concerned,
If you ask Sir Arthur about any
phase of heaven or hell he answers,
direct, specific, with absolute posi-
tivencss and conviction. Here are
some of his startling statements;
"HEAVEN-This is to me as def
mite world as Europe or the United
States. 1t is very like this world,
except that heaven is devoid of the
ugly, the unhappy, the evil things
we find in this life.
"HEAVENLY SPIRIFS--In heav-
en- every person is at the zenith Of
his or her powers. The spiritual
body is Ike the earth body, except
that the former is comipete and
beautiful. In heaven we lose all
earthly deformities; the person with
only one leg, one eye or crooked
spine is made whole. The little chill
dren attain perfect manhood or wo-
manhood
"REAVENLY HOMES There are
beautiful homes in heaven, surround
ed by gardens of wonderful flowers.
| believe that one finds there ones
favorite pets. There are woodlands
and lakes, games and sports, joy and
laughter. Yes, and the opportunity
to work.
"hEAVENLY MUSIC-The heav-
enly music is joyous, inspiring,
soothing. You know that on this
earth there are many sounds pitched
SO high that the human ear cannot
record them. The music of the world
beyond is of this sort
HUMAN WEAKNESSES-Heav
en- is replica of earth, except that
the grossly material things and the
weaknesses of the flesh do not enter
there. All ones desires are realized
in heaven, but the heavenly body
does not desire, for example, liquors
or tobacco.
"PURGATORY-This is a state
between heaven and hell, in which
souls unfit to enter the higher realms
must spend sometime, progressing
from level to level, preparing them
selves for the higher state Purga-
tory is sadder, darker grayer than
this world. 1t usually takes 40 years
