REMARKABLE PROPHECY.

"This is a revelation of events of a universal character which must shortly come to pass. Their spiritual outlines are now before my eyes. I see floating upon the surface of the sea of human fate the huge silhouette of a nude woman. She is--with her beauty, her poise, her smile, her jewels--a super-Venus. Nations rush madly after her, each of them eager to attract her especially. But she, like an eternal courtesan, flirts with all. In her hair ornaments of diamonds and rubies is engraved her name. "Commercialism". As alluring and as bewitching as she seems, much destruction and agony follow in her wake.

"And behold, she has three gigantic arms with three torches of universal corruption in her hand. The first torch represents the flame of war, the second torch bears the flame of bigotry and hypocrisy, and the third torch is that of the law.

"The great conflagration will start about 1912, set by the torch of the first arm in the countries of Southeastern Europe. It will develop into a destructive calamity in 1913. In that year I see all Europe in flames and bleeding. I hear the lamentations of huge battle fields. But about the year 1915 a strange figure from the North--a new Napoleon--enters the stage of bloody drama. He is a man of little militaristic training, a writer or journalist, but in his grip most of Europe will remain till 1925.

"The end of the great calamity will mark a new political era for the old world. There will be left no empires or kingdoms, but the world will form a federation of the United States of Nations. There will remain only four great giants--the Anglo-Saxons, the Latins, the Slavs and the Mongolians."
