Show Here is a piece of good advice even if it does come from the east: The public pub-lic should give the cold shoulder to so-called so-called mediums if it desires to keep its money and its pence of mind. Mediums Medi-ums are getting altogether too numerous numer-ous again. They doubtless add something some-thing to the gayety of nations, for their pretensions are of course absurd. But they also make hundreds of persons of wealth and intelligence wretched. They play upon their affections, and deceive them by appealing to their hearts. Many wise people long to know about "things beyond." It is only when tbey allow themselves to be convinced that a mortal being can serve as medium between this world and the next that their wisdom fails in it. |
