four times repeated request, "Greet
one another"-after the custom then
in common use, and one which is
expressive of even warmer feeling
than our common one of handshak-

in return? You will both be bene-
fited by it; and the stranger viii go

after all, so cold as he had thought

The Home of Gold.

A story about which there is a
fascination which it is impossible
to resist when you hear men tell it
is that of the ''Home of Gold"
Somewhere in southwestern New
Mexico, in the Sierra Madre, il is
said there is a wonderful valley.
Small, inclosed in high rocky walls
and accessible only by a secret
passage, which is known to but few,
is this extraordinary place. 1t is
about ten acres in extent, has run
ming through it a stream, which
waters it thoroughly and makes 1t
perfect paradise, with its exquis-
ite flowers and beautiful trees. In
it are thousands of birds of the
most beautiful plumage. Running
across it is a ledge of pure gold
about thirty feet wide, which glis-
tens in the sunlight like a great
golden belt. The stream crosses
this ledge and as it runs murmurs
around blocks of yellow metal rs
other streams do around pebbles.
The ledge OF gold is supposed to be
solid and to run down into the cen
ter of the earth. The legend is of
Indian origin and around it clus-
ters a number Of Indian stories, in
which the name Of the ill-fated
Montezuma occurs frequently. The
descendants OF the Aztecs believe
firmly that the day will come
when Il Montezuma will return and
free them from the dominion OF
the descendants of the Conques-
todores. They believe that the
money necessary for this work will
be taken from the Madre dOro
The secret of the entrance into the
valley is carefully guarded by Q
tribe Of Indians living near it, and
among them it is only communica-
tod to the oldest men, amid the sol
emn ceremonies Of the medicine
lodge.

Silk culture has become an estab-

From a four years orchard of 5000

A Holv War.

Reading the Jehad," or pro
claiming a holy war, is the dernier
resort of the Mohometans. A eel
ebrated Oriental scholar says all
Mahometan jurists agree that q
holy war can only be legally pro-
claimed if there is a reasonable
prospect of its being successful,
and that if there is no such pros
pect, q Jehad is unlawful, inasmuch
as it uselessly sacrifices life and
property. 1t is further essential
that the lawful spiritual head of the
race which goes to war shall join
personally the camp of those who
have proclaimed it, and all subjects
of the belligerent state. Christians
as well as Mahometans, are bound
to take part in it. According to
the Mahometan code such war
cancels all debts, both of the state
and private individuals. During
the Russo Turkish war (which was
proclaimed a holy war by an trade
of the Porte) foreign obligations
were declared cancelled; but the
Berlin conference came TO the res
cue OF the creditors and re-estab-
lishsd the liability of the Porte.
