The jieighhora, about a halfan hour after .Mrs. Lippert's death, commenced to wash the body. As soon, however, as water was placed on the face the corpse seemed to become inspired with life, and after the ablutions had con tinued for nearly fifteen minutes she opened her eyes, much to the aston ishment of the attendants,' who were not a little frightened, for they thought they were dealing with a corpse instead of one still on this side of the celestial world. The women continued their attentions, however, until Mrs. Lippert was abte to speak.' She said that just before she died' f very thing about her became dark, and she went to sleep. When she woke it was bright, and as she tells it she. was in a strange place, feeling ah ec- siacy of pleasure, and was devoid of all the racking pains with which she was afflicted during her illness. She gives no definite idea of the land into which she had in spirit wandered, or the people she met, but is certain she was in heaven, and in her simple way aesenbed the place as being an ely- siura of bliss. While eDiovinff all this it became dark suddenly, .and she woke as from a pleasant dream to find that she had been a corpse for nearly an hour, and that the neighbors were wasuing ner iace. oince men mrs.
