Probably there never was scholar
who, in the pursuit Of his favorite
study, was capable of such abstemious-
ness or showed such a lofty contempt
for the very necessaries and decencies
Of life as De Koros. He lived like an
eremite, barring the use of the hair
shirt and the scourge. At 'Yangla,
with Lama and one attendant, he
lived for four months in an apartment
nine feet square. The temperature
was below zero and the three were
regularly showed up. Here De Koros
read Thibetan manuscripts literally
from morning till night, with hands so
numbed that he could hardly turn over
the pages. His food was boiled rice
and tea, favored with rancid butter.
He drank no spirits and would not eat
fruits, though Zanskar produces chest
nuts and apricots in abundance. The
latter, when dried, form the chief food
Of the natives. He cared nothing for
the outer world, wanted neither news
papers nor modern books, but was
quite hsppy with Thibetan volumes on

from the United States was 257 ,208, sos

This shows a growing demand for

increased during the present. year owing

Several years ago, while the people
Of West Tennessee were alarmed at the
approach Of yellow fever, Judge F.
convened court at Bolivar. Court had
been but few days in session when
the reports from Memphis caused addi-
tional excitement. There were many
witnesses attendant upon court, and,
very naturally, they importuned the
Judge to permit them to go home.
The business part of the community,
willing to run any risk for the sake of
trade, declared that the scare was un-
necessary, and that the disease was not
yellow fever. A number of physicians,
with, it soon appeared, more learning
than judgment, repaired to the court
room and assured the Judge that no
danger Of an epidemic was to be appre-
hended. d hrs esIf - ~ .of
