Spiritualism Made Practical.

A FEW weeks ago, a family named Walker consisting of Mr. and Mrs. Walker and two children, living a short distance north of Elgin, Illinois, were found dead in their house. A letter was found, which explained that the father and mother had given laudanum to their children and taken it themselves, and were happy in believing that they would go with their children to a better world. They were earnest Spiritualists. Believing that “death is the gate of endless joy,” they concluded to improve their condition by entering the golden gate at once!
