SPIRITUALISM AND THE LIFE AFTER DEATH

Speaking at a meeting in the New Century Hall, Kent Terrace, in tho absence of Mr. John Page, Mr. Bellamy spoke on the subject of "Modem Spiritualism and tho Life After Death." He told his audience that they had been reminded not once, but repeatedly that there was another life to como, that this existence was not all. that they were created for something grander, higher, nobler than the mero acquisition of wealth during their stay on this earth plane. He said that the physical body might bo regarded as the temporary home or dwellingpkce of the-soul within, and that as-such it should be kept clean, wholesome, pure; and, like tlio thrifty housewife who provided not only for the wants of to-day, but for to-mor-row and the day after to-morrow, so man should prepare himself and provido not merely for his physical comfort and well-being in this matorial world, but. for his spiritual welfare in the far more important life that he would enter into after ho had passed through the change called death. He said that as man came into this world naked and alone, so he would pass out of it naked and alono, with nothing to his credit, no reference to offer to those" spiritual beings amongst whom he would 111 future dwell, other than his past actions, the help and the benefit that he had given to the human family generally, ■ the service he had rendered to his fellow-men whilst on earth, so that those who were waiting to receive him in that land where material wealth was of no avail might wel'come him and say, "Well done, thou good and fuithful •servant!" . >
