no THE EAST INDIAN.
Caste Is His Religion and Ever!
thing to Him.

Caste Is His Religion and Every.
thing to Him.
The IIindoo caste forms q unique
part in the life of the East India ma
tive. Caste is everything to him. De-
prive him of his caste, which is his re-
ligion, and you rob him of all he holds
dear on earth. Without. his religious
caste a Hindoo man or woman would
be as helpless as a ship in mid-ocean
deprived OF her rudder.
Every Hindoo is employed in that
vocation which his particular caste
governs. If the father is q washer
man (dobe) then his children and his
children's children are washermen and
washerwomen, and SO on, from II
generation to another this Hindoo fam
lily is compelled to be in the same line
of employ nent as their forefathers.
There can be no rise In station nor
any fall to a humble occupation.
If q Hindoo should attempt to do
any other kind Of work than that
which his religion permits him, he
would be ostracised from his race, and
he would at once be declared an out
cast. His family would shun him; his
brothers and sisters, father and moth
err would forever cast him Off.
Where one servant could do the work
in the house, it requires, by this pro-
cess, six or seven. The man who will
carry a glass of water would under no
circumstances touch meat, and the n
who hands the meat to "sahib" and
"mistress" would not think of brush
ing the ies from the table. Each man
in the household has his own work to
do, and torture would not compel him
to deviate from that line.

London, Oct. 21.-The following Of
fetal statement regarding Venezuela
was issued to-day:
There is, happily. a better feeling
manifested on both sides of the water
between the respective peoples, and it
frequently happens that manifestations
of this kind help governments to an
amicable conclusion which would
otherwise be impracticable. Regard
ing the allegation that Sir Julian
P%auncefote has returned to America
charged with a mission having for it's
object the settlement Of the dispute,
the patent fact is that he has all along
had such a mission, and has returned
to Washington with certain instruc-
lions, and negotiations will be re-
opened Immediately on his arrival.
But it is too early to say whether the
proposals Of the British government
are likely to be accepted"

Washington, Oct. 21.-The president
has removed Postmaster John H.
Lewis at Black River Falls, Wis.,, and
appointed David Thompson as his sue
cessor. The summary action in dis
missing Lewis is due to disclosures of
alleged corruption entered into to OBJ
tain office. Lewis was appointed De-
cember II, 1893. In a recent political
discussion it was asserted that Lewis
paid a large sum of mo1ley to a local
newspaper to support his candidacy
for tho Office, and a subsequent in
vestigation,. the department claims,
has substantiated these charges.

From the Free Press, Corning, Iowa.
Il was afflicted with what physicians
assured me was eczema and began doc
:oring for hat disease about two ears
ago." Said Mrs. Eva L. Evans, OF, Har-
lis, Iowa, to a reporter a few days ago.
The first doctor I consulted did me no
good at all. He pronounced the disease
ttng-worm n gave me remedies for
that. but Don found out his error.
II then triad another physician, with
some better Success but did not sue
iced In obtaining permanent relief. On
the contrary, I got worse and my face
Ind body broke out badly n a severe
itching sensation constantly accom-
PANEL 1t. This physician pronounced
the malady eczema and 1 believe now
tina his diagnosis was correct. My
husband saw an article on DR.. Will
hams' Pink Pills in the county papers
and at his solicitation I tried them.
T make a long story short. I took
twelve boxes Of this wonderful rem
edy and am now entirely relieved. I
have not been troubled with the least
sign Of this disease since August, 1896.
[ had been taking the pills since June
Of that year. I am glad to testify to
the worth OF this excellent remedy. 1t
not only cured me, but my father tried
It for la grippe and "a materially
benefited-in fact he insists it relieved
him at once.
