De L'Ester--We do not consider it safe to hold you longer. You shall be informed as to what may further occur or be said that may indicate that the present state of involution is likely to be superseded by a marked evolution of the religious thought of the Entoans. How, with the promise that during your absence from home we will, as far as we may, guard and guide you in all your ways, we will consign you to the care of George and Inez, who will bear you safely to your soul self, your objective personality, which, in a semi-conscious state, awaits your return. Now, make your adieux to these friends and then we all may say au revoir. George--Not one question, my sister. Always we are inclined to hold you with us too long. You are surprised that the shadows of night already are brooding over your city, and that here in your quiet room twilight has deepened into darkness. Gentola--George, Inez, bear my loving greetings to all our dear ones. Good-bye, good-bye. CHAPTER VIII. SPIRITUALIZED MAN. De L'Ester--Again you are at home, and we, your ever faithful friends are here to greet and congratulate you on your improved health. Gentola--And I with greater pleasure than I can express reciprocate your friendly greeting. Yes, during my visit I was on several occasions conscious of your presence, once especially so. De L'Ester--That was when you questioned your architect escort as to the dimensions of the rotunda of the building you were observing. Mentally you were comparing it with the rotunda of the Galarēs[a:]. Gentola--That was the time to which I have alluded. I knew you were touching my head, and once I knew that you and George were walking beside me. De L'Ester--Indeed we did not at any time leave you unattended. We never do. You have such a genius for falling and other mishaps, that ever we are on guard to if possible avert them. No, we will not go to Ento to-day, but with your permission we will talk with you. Gentola--I shall be only too happy to have you do so. May I ask for your opinion of our World's Fair? Did it at all interest you? De L'Ester--Truly, we all feel a degree of pleasure and pride in such an exposition of the achievements of Earth's peoples. It was a grand result of ages of evolution, and a fine illustration of the history of their progress. Should we say that largely the marvellous exhibit was the reflex of activities of the spirit side of life, you scarcely would credit the assertion, nevertheless it is true. _All_ spirits submerged in mortals, _subconsciously_ are en rapport with the spirit spheres, and when the subjective and objective consciousness are fully en rapport, they establish a medium, through which very advanced spirits of exalted spheres can convey into visible expression the results of their wisdom and attainments. But this is a topic we cannot now consider.
