Thay Were In Use Among the Hindeos

The prevailing idea In regard 10 .
rosary Is that IL belongs solely to follow
ers of the Catholic religion. But take
away the cross that IL hanging 10 the
beads and we fnd that n must turn to
the dim, mysterious east for the origin
Of the rosary, for IL Is among tho tenn
pies Of India, China and Japan that the
FIRST sign of the practice is to be found.
Ancient pictures of the Hindoo gods de-
pict them with ohaplets of beads In
their hands, and it is believed that this
method Of Keeping count Of their many
prayers was In uss among the Hindooe
before the era of Buddha, or at least B.
O. 500.
The use Of the rosary seems especial
~ suited to an eastern CLINE and to the
repose OF M oriental mind. The Bud
dhists mo fond OF using very smooth
beads Of glass. poaishe1 jade on coral.
and it has been thought that the smooth,
cool beads gliding through their fingers
as they murmur the holy name for thou
sands of times help them to arrive at
that state of holy abstraction from
earthly things which is so much priced
among the followers of Buddha.
The favorite Japanese rosaries are
made of polished wood, crystal, onyx
and chased silver, and the Japanese
Buddhists repeat in endless devotion

great size was recently brought from q
temple in Kioto, Japan. The largest
bead is about six inches in diameter, and
the rosary entire is about "a feet long.
The huge beads are of dark brown pol
