A writer on gypsies says: Gypsies
have no religion, and some of them
have such an aversion to churches
that they never pass by one without
muttered curse. In European
countries they never suffer them
selves to be buried in a church-yard,
but whenever allowed they bury their
dead in out-of the way places places.
This antipathy to churches and re-
ligous forms is supposed by some
persons TO have originated from their
persecution by the priesthood in the
middle ages, but, whatever its origin,
it is fixed fact.

kept watered during the dry part of
the summer. If $50 cucumbers can
be raised on piece of ground, IL

can be raised on an acre of ground

less TO her side and III few min utes

from which she suffered excruciating
pains. A physician was summoned,
but remedies were of no avail. FL
nally hot irons were applied and
gave relief.
