The Largest 6ibIe.

In 1857, Mindon-min, King of Burma
erected a monument near Mandalay
called the kutho-daw. There he built
700 temples in each of which there is 4
slab of white marble. Upon these 700
slabs is engraved the whole of the Bud
dhist Bible. a vast literature in itself
equal to about six copies of the Holy
Scriptures. says the Boston Traveller.
This marble Bible is engraved in the
Pail language. thought TO ne tina.

Photographs of some of the inscriptions
have reached England, and Professor
Max Muller-perhaps the greatest Mn
guist in the world-has examined them.
But, alas for all this human ingenuity
and perseverance, If His Majesty
Mindon-min thought to peIpetuate the
teaching of the Great Budd1na by caus-
ing it to be craven on the rock he
nourished vain ambition.
The climate of Burma is moist, and
it's effects have already wrongh. havoc
on the surface &c the white marble.
and tie photographs show partial
effacement of some of the Burmese
characters in which the Pail text is
engraved.
This is certainly the largest known
copy of any portion of literature.

Afraid Of the Glass Eye.

A year or two ago an artist from
San Francisco who wore a glass eye
came to Yokohama and established
himself in little bungalow ON the out
skirts of the city.
The weather was extremely warm,
and before the stranger had become
settled he was besieged by a number
of coolies who wanted to get the job
of tanning him at night. The artis-
looked over the applicants and finally
selected an old man who brought ex-
celent recommendation from his last
employer. says the Yorkville Is. CO
Yoeman.
When 1t ,xas time to retire the artist
took out his glass eye. laid it on a
stand at his bedside and vent to bed.
The old man picked up his fan and the
San Francisco man was soon asleep.
He slept peacefully for an hour or two.
when he was awakened by chorus Of
buzzing insects about his head. He
looked about him and found that the
man whom he had hired to fan him
was gone.
The next morning when he went in
search of another coo1ie ne was amazed
to discover that no one would work for
him. He was looked upon as wizard
and worker of miracles. with whom
it was unsafe to be alone. The Old
man had gone among his friends ana
told how the Californian had taken out
his eye at night and laid 1t on a stand
in order that he might watch his SER
want at night and see that he Kept his
fan in motion. The old coolies story
created such excitement that the san
Francisco man was never able TO get
another japanese to fan him after thas.
