New: a
page about issue 6 of Helios,
1911, the Mexican Spiritist magazine which featured news about
President Elect Francisco I. Madero and the Spiritist Manual
(claiming, falsely, that "Bhima" was not Madero).
There is also a page with the English
translation of the text on the cover; the masthead; an advertisement
for the Spiritist Manual; and the first page of an article
about Francisco I. Madero.
