Ca.n yoti perceive tbe gr.lIId a:wailenlng on<br />
the subjeCt of Spiritualism in this country<br />
and allover the world? Have you noticed<br />

amoug people who knsw notblng of the philosophy<br />
and believed Jess uolll the evldenc ..<br />
of their seilsea forced a conviction? Is It not<br />
Ii sign of a healthy growth that Impostors are<br />
being cxpOsed everywhere while geuuine me'<br />
dlums are permitting the most absolute tests<br />
and astonishing even .Splritualists by the<br />
. m-ength of the manlfcsla!lona under these<br />
condjUous? Ob, there Is cause for general<br />
. rejoicing •. ~Tbe Morning J.lgbt is breaking,.<br />

It Is oftentimes difficult to a.certaIn if the<br />
stories appearing hi the secular press ",Iatlng<br />
to spirit Interference In tM all"alrs 01 this<br />
world are true or merely Imaginative. In<br />
the majority of cases It Is evident that the<br />
author I. famlHar with the subject of Spirit.<br />
pruism and· valnable InformaUon concern<br />
Ing the pbllooophy Is dessembial.ed. In our<br />
department for ".Mental Phases" of the pben·<br />
.omena, we publish a story· that <strong>com</strong>es from<br />
~t. Louis of a spirit bUsband, by bls dlrectln<br />
~uencie. sending aid to.hIs sl.l\rVing wife. It III<br />
claimed that tbe man who bad be.en lollu· .<br />

dreaded to have anythlng·to do with Spirit.<br />
uallsm; bllt was bidueed by 8. friend to visit<br />
II private medium. Sbe· 800n booamo con·<br />
trolled by a spirit, who said, "My oalbe is<br />
S. God bl .... you my noblo friend. [lIere<br />
the lady arose and sbook hands with the gen·<br />

oply person I could coutrol to save the life of<br />
the woman I love and my daughter. I saw<br />
