A book of fiction of a scientific trend, which seeks to prove immortality by the fact that communications are received from disembodied spirits, and their presence made visible to those mortals who have developed clairaudiance and clairvoyance. That automatic writing is an established truth is clearly set forth in this story, and that some people are endowed with this faculty, owing to greater understanding of the subconscious mind of man, there may arise some doubt as to the source of these communications, and the reader will doubtless put his own construction upon the facts related. It also teaches that our purpose in life is not to do good, but to be good, (hen the doing comes without effort. An interesting, instructive book, which will well repay the reading.
