an immortal truth. The bilious sufferer is
on the road to happiness when he begins to

fever, constipation, dyspepsia, rheumatism,
kidney trouble and nervousness. Use II

The Hall of Repose."

In the royal 'hall of repose" Akbar's
colossal bedstead of red sandstone with
sculptured pillars still occupies its ac-
customed place. Like David of old. the
great Mogul climbed upon into his bed, a
broad fight of stone steps assisting him in
this gymnastie feat, though final leap
was required to land him safely in the
gigantic four-poster. External stairs as
cended to the red arcades and fantastic
kiosks of the level roof, where shadowy
cloisters offer cool retreats from the burn
ing sun and extensive views of the sur
rounding country. Indigo, poppy, jute
and tobacco alternate with the pale green
of springing corn and the vivid emerald of
waving rice.
The metallic tints of castor-oil plants
glisten against the black belts of Jungle,
and innumerable tombs dot the wide ex-
panse of rolling plain with gray domes and
pillared porticos; for Northern India, like
ancient Egypt, is thickly strewn with me-
MORALS of departed greatness. The blue
waters of the Jumna flow in shrunken
current through a waste of sand, and the
scene, though destitute of actual beauty,
suggests the impressive idea of infinity,
which is only conveyed by level land
scape viewed from lofty height.-All the

be found that this order substantially cor
responds with the accepted order of social
precedence. The casteless tribes who have
not yet entered the Brahmanical system
occupy the lowest place in both series.
The fisher caste are a trifle higher in the
scale; the pastoral, the cultivating and a
group of cognate castles from whose hands
a Brahman may take water-follow in due
order; and from them we pass to the upper
crust of Hindu society. Thus it is scarcely
paradox to lay down as law of the caste
organization in Eastern India that man S
social status varies III inverse ratio to the
width of his nose"
Equally to the point was Sir John Lub-
book story.
IAN Indian Judge had three hill tribe
men arraigned on the charge of murder.
They. were acquitted, and upon hearing the
decision of the court they extended their
outstretched palms toward the learned oc-
cupant of the bench, with their thumbs
upon the tipof the nose This, to Euro
pean, was an act intended to express con-
tempt and derision, but among these hill
side men it signifed gratitude for favor
received.

was probably an anthropologist. Other
wise he might have committed these CRATE

so often masquerades as ''sea- bass" on the
waterfront tables, neither does he ever
reach the attitude of the maritime
chap who captures the gentle
mackerel, that foolish little fish that
swarms the ocean in schools searching for
nets to get caught in. but he is just as use
full, Just as devoted to his calling and just
as picturesque as his brothers who go
down to the sea in their little ships.
When the purple of the coming day
shows in the east the crab-catcher boards
his unpretentious craft, spreads sail and
floats away, where the surges of the ocean
in a vain endeavor are battering at the
rock-ribbed shore.
There in that turmoil of broken, foam
ing water is the home of the big fat sea
crab, that thing of beauty and Joy for
ever on the lunch counter. He never sees
the light of day until caught. and from
the churning, saline deep where he hides
he must be cautiously lifted.
But the captor knows him and appeals to
his stomach, as the crab in turn appeals to
the gourmands of the table. A salt her.
ring securely fastened in the small hoop
net attracts him, and he is soon made cap
tive.
AS he feels the net coming up to the sur
face he attemps to escape, but his many
claws, so useful among his native rocks,
now entangle him in the meshes, and he is
soon in the crab-catcher's boat.
Again dagain does the hoop sink to
ascend with struggling crustacean in its
meshes until the evening turns the she'll
fish feet sailing homeward.
However, not always does the crab
catcher ensnare the crab. Sometimes the
crab catches him, while his hoop-net rots
deep down in the sea, and his unpreten-
tious boat is battered to pieces among the
breakers which forever beat the shore
a thick enveloping fog, a swift-running
tide or heavy sea may overwhelm the
crab-catcher clinging out among the rocks
like the game he entices from the depths,
and he never again sails his craft home
through the gathering shadows Of the even

through them for more than 500 miles, and

THE RIGHT WAY TO BECOME STRONG
Sandow, remarks DR.. Lydston in a medical
journal is probably the finest living ex-
ample of muscular possibilities. His ex-
hibitions, however, call for word OF
caution to youths who imagine that his
feats of strength illustrate ideal training,
for he is of very phlegmatic temperament,
and persons of more sensitive organization
would soon pass the danger line in attempt
ing to emulate him. Sandow's apparently
perfect condition does not justify the IN
ference that great feats of strength are
harmless in any case, for at his best he is
confronted by two dangers death at
an early period if his athletic strain
is suspended, or death at middle age
from a continuance of his work. To rest is
impossible without decay of his enormous
heart and lungs. People need to go slow
on athletics sometimes, and there are other
ways of becoming strong and beautiful,
even if one is quite puny. For example,

A NAPOLEONIO HERO.

His Death Occurs in Russia at the Age
of 125 Years.
A Partisan paper announces the death on
December 15 at Saratow, Russia, of the
veteran of the armies of Napoleon 1, Lieu
tenant Nicolas Savin, at the extraordinary
age of 125 years. Savin was born in Paris
in 176S. In 1898 he enlisted in the second
regiment of hussars, with which he made
the most important campaigns during the
consulate and the empire.
The funeral of Lieutenant Savin was
ordered and paid for by the municipality
of Saratow, and among the many digni-
taries present were the Governor of the
province, the Mayor and many army
officers and civil officials.
Some local interest attaches to this veneer
able warrior of another century because he
was the uncle of the father of Mrs.
Arrillaga, wife of Santiago Arrillaga, OF
this city.

ANTHROPOLOGIsTs
Say That the Nose Tells of the Culture
of the Man.

Anthropology, said Sir William Flower,
is becoming of the highest Importance in
politics. This was illustrated from the
science of the nose. 1t is an old gibe that
democratic politics is nothing but the art
of counting noses, and Odin's system of
taxation was, as everybody knows, based
on paying through the nose. But the nose,
according to Sir William Flower, is an
even more important political factor in the
undemocratic society of India. 1t is the
clew to racial types and hierarchies of
caste.

ARTFUL DODGER AND FAGIN.
A Youthful New York Crook Who Com
bines Both Roles.

Youthful New York Crook Who Com
bines Both Roles.
The Artful Dodger of dickens "Oliver
Twist" has an exact counterpart right here
in New York. An organized gang of
juvenile pickpockets and sneak-thieves, as
carefully trained and as thoroughly organ
lied as any commanded by the great Fagin
of fiction, have been diligently operating in
and around town for the past six months.
In many respects the artful little Grimm
ais resemble the old Cockney's gang.
They all contribute to a common fund,
whick is banked by the boss. They work
in sets of three or four, each having his
especial duty.
Two "steerers," one clipper" and a
"passer' form a set. They are bound to-
gether by fear of the power of the ''push,"
or gang. They firmly believe that the life
of a ''squealer" is not worth a moments
purchase.
Bill Skies of the story is represented by
one or two burly DULLES who live upon the
bows earnings" But the ruling mind of
all this association of sin is contained in
the curly, black head of 14-year-old boy.
They have no Fagin. The Artful Dodger
dominates the whole.
ABE oolOHOH, why 10 SuppoSeu W liNe az
10 Suffolk street, is the modern Artful
Dodger of this wicked young crew.
Old man Solomon, who sells ice at 10
Suffolk street, disowns having such boy
as Abe; but this denial probably comes
from a proper pride, for the neighbors
roundabout all know the hopeful young
thief-tutor well, and many are the stories
they tell of his magnificence and his aff1u-
ence One says he takes in from his pupils
as much as $3.50 each Sunday. Another
seems to have centered his admiration on
$500 diamond stud which he usually
wears. All admit that his power is terri
BILE. They say that if any split on Abe
he'd get even with them mighty quick
No one knows or says where he is.
All the youngsters agree III describing
King Solomon as a rather fat, dudiSh little
fellow, with a strut and staggering gait, a
fine crop of curly black hair and eyes as
keen as a hawks. He usually wears light
trousers and black coat in the height of
| fashion. A black derby hat, patent-leather
boots and a cane, of which each one has
good reason to know the weight, complete
his outfit.
! In the confessions of the boys who have
been caught they claim that portion of
the money they pay to Solomon is put
aside and banked for defense fund. Many
of the boys interviewed, who claimed any
knowledge at all of the transaction, say
| that this is so.
| Gerry agents, police officers, reporters
and detectives all for the last week have
been eagerly seeking young Abe Solomon.

can catch him. The "Artful Dodger'' is
