What the Shah terms bis museum Is q
curious plsce. It contains profusion Of
costly articles and objects Of art such ss
exist nowhere else at the present day, 1t
being the opinion Of we'll informed Euro
pesns who have viewed these treasures
that their money value is perhaps twenty
fold that Of the contents Cf the so-cslled
green vaults at Dresden. It is impossible
to give exact figures for they
could only bs obtained after
s long and minute inspection
and valuation by experts; but, roughly
estimated, 1t Is probable that there is
more than s1oo, ooe. 900 worth of jswelry,

with ssu1y labels, that can be had at

see priceless mossics and ex-
quisitely painted cups and cans,
and vsses which were presented by
some European porentste; and side by
side with them you will notice horrible
daubs, veritable 10-cent chromos, picked
up the Lord knows how and where. You
will perceive glass cases filled with ge
heaps Of rubies, diamonds, emerslds,
beryls, of all sizes and KINDS, cut snd I'M

eyes will see chesp music boxes, JEWS

the Shah himself forever. waking or sleep

this box and Of the several vaults where
he keeps his piles on piles Of bright

the amelioration Was expected, would be
highly satisfactory to him and his family,
who were crsmped by the daily depletion
OF their funds. Then the Christian waved
wroth and said: 30, you of little faith.
Know that you would already have been
cured, if you had believed me, when /
told you that your pain was not real. Pain
and suffering do not exist; they are merely
phautssms OF the brsin. There is no such
thing as matter" continued he with so
much emphasis that It ratified some silver
dollars in his pocket, "none whatever;
the only real thing is thought. All this il
too subtle for your commonplace mind,
and hence / can do nothing more for you;
and you had better go and al your coarse,
unsppreciativs system with drugs.n Then
vision of $40 that had vanished, and of
pain that had vanished not, came before
the mind Of that long suffering man and
he arose and he took the Christian SCI
enlist and he mopped the q )or with him,
smitpg him sore upon the head and back,
so that when he was through, conges-
tons, abrasiops, contusioDs, ineipient
ecchymosis aud epitaxis were among
the phenomena presented by his
Caristian conference. There is
no real suffering" said the gun
appreciative maa with whitening scorn.
1.-THE bruises on your alleged head are
entirely hypothetical; the choking gave
you was simply An idea Of mine, and Q
devilish good idea, too; the pain which
you feel is merely an Intellectual fantasy,
and your nose bleed Is one OF the ideal
of the cerebral mass. Believe
these things not to exist and hey van
