Under such an one the members of the Theosophical Society, and I, especially, aro now suffering. Our loss is too great for adequate expression. Ordinary friends and acquaintance may be replaced, even in time forgotten, but there is no one to replace Helena Petrovna, nor can she ever be for gotten. Others have certain of her gifts, none have them all. This generation has not seen her like, the next probably will not. Take her all in all, with her merits and demerits, her bright and her dark moods, her virtues and her foibles, she towers above her contemporaries as one of the most picturesque and striking personages in modern history. Her life, as I have known it these past seventeen years, as friend, col league and collaborator, has been a tragedy, the tragedy of a martyr-phi lanthropist. Burning with zeal for the spiritual welfare and intellec tual enfranchisement of humanity, moved by no selfish inspiration^ giving herself freely and without price to her altruistic work, sho has been hounded to her death-day, by the slanderer, the bigot and the Pharisee. These wretches are even unwilling that sho should sleep in peace, and aro now defiling her burial urn in the vain hope of besmirching her memory ; as the Roman Catholics have those of Cagliostro and St. -

EcclesiasticalhistoryofNewfoundland ECCLESIASTICAL HISTORY OF NEW-1 FOUNDLAND. By the Very Reverend M. F. Howlev, D.D.. Prefect Apostolic of | St. George's, West Newfoundland. 8vo, pp. 4»6. Boston : Doyle & Whittle. It must be confessed that Americans, those I of us at least who lire to the southward of (he | Canadian line, know but little of the great tri angular island that lies off the Gulf of St. Law- I rence. To its own inhabitants, indeed, it is in some decree an unknown land, for its interior | can hardly be said as yet to have been thorough ly explored, and there are solitudes among I the lakes and rivers of its remote wilderness that have probably never yet been seen by the eye of civilized man. Its nigged and pictur esque coast is touched only at widely separated points by passcngrr steamers, and but one short railway line has as yet penetrated the forests or disturbed the silence of the rocky fastnesses with its noisy evidence of civilization. Vet these in hospitable shores were early visited by mission aries from the Mother Church, and the opening | of the sixteenth century saw the symbol of the Christian religion reared at several points along the coast. Dr. Howley has been engaged in collecting material for the present history during the greater part of his life, having at an early age developed a taste for accumulating notes bearing upon the history of Newfoundland. The actual work of preparation, however, has occupied rather moie than a year. The learned author has had only one predecessor in the field, the kt Rev. -

A Treatise on Jainism by - Shri Jayatilal S
JAIN PART2 Page 1 of 123 A Treatise On Jainism By - Shri Jayatilal S. Sanghvi (Title page, Forward, Preface, and Contents are mistakenly not computerized. It will be added later on.) CHAPTER I THE JAIN RELIGION The religion which enjoins adoration and worship of Jinas or the religion which is propounded by Jinas is knows as the Jain religion. Jina means one who has conquered the internal enemies and impurities of the soul like attachment (raga) and hatred (dwesha). He is known as Parmatma (the great soul), Sarvajna (omniscient), and Savadarshee (omnipotent). Such Jinas have been in existence from times immemorial. No beginning can be traced for them, and the Jain Religion has also no beginning. It is a very ancient religion. It teaches us to become Jina and those who follow it are called Jains. According to Jain conception the period of time consists of two cycles, ascending (utsarpinee) and descending (avasarpini). In each of these two cycles, twenty-four Tirthankaras (Jinas) came into existence. They are called Tirthankaras because they are to become the propounders of the sacred order of religion. The last Tirthankar was Lord Mahavir. Some say that Lord Mahavir was the founder of Jainism, but this is incorrect. Twenty-three Tirthankaras existed before Lord Mahavir flourished. In their times Jainism also flourished and before that also Jainism existed. By their extraordinary perception and knowledge, Tirthankaras who come from time to time, bring the fundamental principles into light again. They preach them, propound them, and also spread them. The souls of Tirthankaras, from the very moment of their births, are gifted with superb knowledge and are very highly meritorious. -
T. Tembarom by Frances Hodgson Burnett</H1>
T. Tembarom by Frances Hodgson Burnett T. Tembarom by Frances Hodgson Burnett This etext was produced by Charles Franks and the Online Distributed Proofreading Team T. TEMBAROM by Frances Hodgson Burnett CHAPTER I: The boys at the Brooklyn public school which he attended did not know what the "T." stood for. He would never tell them. All he said in reply to questions was: "It don't stand for nothin'. You've gotter have a' 'nitial, ain't you?" His name was, in fact, an almost inevitable school-boy modification of one felt to be absurd and pretentious. His Christian name was Temple, which became "Temp." His surname was Barom, so he was at once "Temp Barom." In the natural tendency to avoid waste of time it was pronounced as one word, and the letter p being superfluous and cumbersome, it easily settled page 1 / 819 itself into "Tembarom," and there remained. By much less inevitable processes have surnames evolved themselves as centuries rolled by. Tembarom liked it, and soon almost forgot he had ever been called anything else. His education really began when he was ten years old. At that time his mother died of pneumonia, contracted by going out to sew, at seventy-five cents a day, in shoes almost entirely without soles, when the remains of a blizzard were melting in the streets. As, after her funeral, there remained only twenty-five cents in the shabby bureau which was one of the few articles furnishing the room in the tenement in which they lived together, Tembarom sleeping on a cot, the world spread itself before him as a place to explore in search of at least one meal a day. -
