How knmrs Bank Their Money.
From Tit-Bits

The natives of that part of South Africa
which to a great extent is Inhabited by
Bushmen and Hottentols have REGULAR
system of banks and banking.
These KafIirs, among whom this curious
system of banking obtains, live near kaf-
frara in the south of the colony country.
The natives come down south from their
country to trade In the several villages
and towns in large numbers, stay with the
Peers for a time, then return to Kaffra-
ria.
Their banking facilities are very primi-
tive. and consist entirely of banks of de-
post alone, without banks OF discount or
issue, and they have no checks. But still
they enjoy banking privileges such rs
they are.
From those who trade of their own
number they select one, who for the oc-
casion is to be their banker. He is convert
ed into a bank of deposit by putting all
the money of those whose banker he is
into a bag, and then they sally forth to
the stores to buy whatever they want.
When an article is purchased by any Of
those who are in this banking arrange
ment the price of the article is taken by
the banker from this deposit money bag.

seller of the article, after which all the

the presence of the two Witnesses selected:
"You owe me so much!' This is then re-

counting comes between the banker ana
his several depositors, when all desi ed
purchases have been made, after which all
the natives depart for their northern

NOT \ SINGLE RELIGION.
HindoOism Multiplicity of Sects
With Only Caste in Common.

With Only Caste in Common
From the Contemporary Review
Hinduism is not a single religion. but
huge encyclopedia of distinct and in
dependent worships; it is not unity eth
er of thought or custom, but an immense
multiplicity of sects and their observ-
vances. 1t may be described as the ANAL
gam of all the religious ideas and usages
Of all the Indian peoples through all their
past. To no two classes in no two places
Is it exactly the same thing. It's one per-
manent and distinctive feature is its So
al order: where caste is Hinduism is,
where caste is not, Hinduism will not
cond scend to be. Grant this fundamental
institution, ard it will he tolerant beyond
the widest occidental dream of liberation.
II spreads not by the conversion OF indi-
viduas but of tribes or peoples. Its unit
is not the person, but the family; for the
Individual it has no place with him it
can do nothing and for him it does not
care; but the family, or the aggregation
of families which we term caste. is to it
all in all. 1t is more by his fulhllment of
his domestic duties, his fidelity in his
paternal functions and obligations, than
by his ritual conformity that a mans or

course, caste may carry with It most OF
these other things, but not in any uni
form or an horitatve shape There are
va ious phi osophes, but they are con-
Germs of the school; there are many wor-
ships, but they are affairs of the temple
or TIE shrine; there are an indnity of be-
liefs but they are conditioned by time
and place; there are multitude of theol-
oeins but they helor to the sect.
The one thing inviclate and universal is
caste; IL fixes the lines within which a

Is the family; its omnipotence lies in its
power to isolate the individual and to re-

Lutte helplessness than could ever be ex-
prr'erced by any so itary in a teeming

MONTEZUMA SWAMP.

The Greatest Bog in New York state
Crossed by n Four-TracL Railroad.
From Rochester Democrat and Chronicle.
AS two men sat yesterday afternoon in
the smoker of the westbound Empire State
express one of them said to the other:
Did you notice that long viaduct that
we crossed about fifty miles back?"
The other replied that he had not seen
it; that he had been asleep.
well, if you had been awake you would
have seen under reconstruction a piece OF
work that crosses one of the worst boys
that ever saw. By George, but should
not like to be dumped into it," he contin-
ued IF the Empire State express ever
jumps the track at the place she will go
down into the mud with her cargo of hui
man freight, and that will be the last e
the train and the passenger I'd rather be
dumped into the ocean myself"
The conversation was about the Monte
yuma Swamp crossed by the main line
of the New York Central between Fox
Ridge and Savannah, little more than
fifty miles east of Rochester. There is
al present a viaduct there that is 800 feet
long, more than a third of mile. The
old stone abutments have been there for
years, possibly fifty, and they stand with
their feet in the mud and bearing the
weight of traffic as they did half CEN
tury ago.
Now the old wall plates are being taken
from under the two passenger tracks, and
iron ones are being put in. Concrete COP
ing only is being used but at present the
two freight tracks. although needing re-
pair even more than the passenger tracks,
will not be touched. They will probably
be repaired later.
Montezuma marsh is one of the greatest
swamps of the state At the mouth Of
Seneca lake it is the wash of thousands
of acres of land. The earth is a verta-
BILE muck of such richness as to be OF
great value as a fertilizer. 1t is a pie
turesque place, but it is doubtful II tpa
Central Railroad people ever saw 1t N
that light. Certainly any one dumpad
into it would make a picture worthy oil
a cartoonist-if he ever got out.
There are nearly seventy stone piers or
abutments, in which rest the four tracks
of the main line, and the erection of these
pillars, over which the pubic has pass "a
for more than fifty years, was an under
taking of no mean order Track walkers
are numerous along here, the raillo1d
company recognizing that special care
must be taken over this bog.
one track has already been repaired
and the other one viii be directly. Tho
freight tracks will presumably be replaced
later When the work is all done there
will be no woodwork on the viaduct.

two years ago 1 was taken down with
Ia grippe, which finally developed into
nervous weakness; in fact, I was out of
shape all over. 1 had all the symptoms
of a weakened nervous system, and
added to it catarrh and bronchitis
Also my stomach troubled me; after
eating l would experience a heavy feel-
ing in my stomach like a lump of lead
which, added to my already nervous
condition, made me miserable indeed
I had tried various patent medicines
without benefit. 1 finally saw DR.. Hart

of the cntarrh was stopped imme-

it made IA man of me.
