When Burman parents are past their
prime their children pray them to
''nobosat," which means that they
should be at the children's charge for
the remainder of their lives, as the
children had first been at their
parents. The turning point is not
marked by any formality, but a child
approaching parents on solemn oc-
casion adopts the gestures of venera-
ton. The aged are not idle; they pre-
serve a great elasticity of mind and
interest in things; they study their re-
ligiOus book and occupy themselves
with their grandchildren When they
are too old to go on pilgrimages with
the others they keep the house and tell
their beads alone. The old people
wear palmer clothes than the young
and, according to old Burmese fashion.
less of it. The human dignity of the
aged is Of kind that apparel can not
add to. STEPPED in the spirit of Budd-
hism the aged never yield to anger.

honor, the pathos Of their serene old
age is purely that of years. A peace
full end is their lot.-Ferrar Book on

RUSSIA OF TODAY.
The Depressing Poverty Of the Russian
People.

HeOples
Poverty and illiteracy naturally go
hand In hand. In no other great
country of the world is poverty-uni-
versal, m0nOt0nOus, hopeless poverty
the national characteristic of the
people. The only parallels 1 know are
in some of the Balkan states. At al
most any point in rural Russia you
might think yourself in the interior OF
Servia or Bulgaria, except that even in
these countries the poor peasant is
not quite so poor, and his bearing is
more independent. Long train jour
neyS in Russia are depressing expert
ences. Once past the limits of the
towns, every village is the samoa
wide street or two-not really streets,
of course, but deep dust or mud, ac-
cOrding to the season, and from
score TO a couple of hundred gray, one
story wooden houses, usually dilapi-
dated, and a church. Russia is still
first and foremost an agricultural
country; she produces including (Po-
land) two thousand million bushels Of
grain, and grain products form more
than half her total exports to Europe;
therefore, at the right season, there
are great stretches of waving fields
and later, the huge mounds of straw
whence the grain has been threShed
But 1t is in her most fertile districts
that the worst famines occur, for ia
mine-a little one every year, a big
one every seven years-has now be-
come a regular occurrence. And the
country, as one flies across it, leaves
the general impression of indulgence
In sharp and painful contrast with
western Europe, there are virtually no
fat stackyards, no cosey farm house,
ma chateau of the local lands owner, no
squire's hall-pitiful assemblages of
men and women just on the hither side
OF the starvation line. And, from all
one learns, disease is rife Whole viii
lagos, was told by men who knew
them well, are poisoned with syphilis.
and the authorities, gravely alarmed
at this terrible state Of things, have
appointed of late, several commits
sions of inquiry to devise remedial
measures. Drunkenness, too, Is a ma
tional vice, the peasant having his
regular bout whenever he has saved
up a small sum.-From Russia of

The protestant Pope"

Pope Clement XIV. has been called
the protestant Pope" because he is
sued bull in 1873 suppressing the or
der of Jesuits. This society was es-
tablished by Ignatius de Loyalo in 1887
to establish the power of the Pope.
Professionals, kings and national bish-
ops were to be regarded as enemies,
and It became the most influential So
ciety in the church. In 1856, when the
Jesuits were in the height of their
power, Pascal published a book against
them, and from that time their influ-
ence declined, until France. Portugal.
Spain and other countries of Europe
demanded that the Pope abolish the
order, which was afterward restored by
Plus VII, in 1915.

KnetO Lincoln as q Boy.

ninety-frSt anniversary of the birth

The squire says that Lincoln and he
were often together, and that, although
he thought much of Lincoln, he never
voted for him but once, and that was

TURKS AT T BILE.


Of late years some Turkish house
holds have become considerably mod
ernized in their arrangements, even
aping the ways Of Paris. But conser-
Vatlve Turks frown on such new
tangled ways. In a conservative Turk
ish household, rich or poor, no tables
are used, and chairs are unknown. In
stead there is a huge wooden frame IN
the middle OF the room about eight
cen inches high. When the family
the men only-assemble to dine, cush-
ions are brought, placed upon the
frame and on these the men seat
themselves tailor fashion, forming
circle around d large tray. The tray
is very large wooden, plated or Sill
yer affair, according to the financial
condition OF the family, and thereon
is deposited a capaciouS bowl. About
it are ranged saucers of sliced cheese,
anchOyies, cayiare and sweetmeats.
interspersed with these are gobletS OF
sherbet, pieces OF hot, unleavened
bread and lockwood spoons. Knives,
forks and plates do not figure in the
service, but each one has a napkin,
spread upon his knees, and everyone,
armed with spoon, helps himself.
The bowl is presently borne away and
another dish talks its place. This
time it is a conglomeration of sub
stantials stewed together, such as NUT
ton game or nOlltry The mess has
been divided by the cook into por-
lions, which are dipped up with the
aid of a spoon or the fingers. For the
| host 10 fish out Of the mess a wing or
leg of fowl and present it to a guest
is considered great compliment, and
for a Turk of high degree to roll a
morsel between his fingers and put
it into the mouth of a visitor is looked
upon as good manners.

Contrasting ca sr campaigns with

sible to discern a decided Improvement
in the relative importance of what
may be called the spectacular ele-
ments. The torchlight procession. the
wholesale illumination of the houses
of partisans on the occasions of such
procession, the organization of bod
les of men clad in some fantastic garb
these things are plainly less congen-
ial to our people at the end of the
century than they were in it's middle,
or even during the score of years after
the civil war. They are essentially
childish, and the nation is dscarding
them as it grows older Instead of
fuss and feathers" the influence of
serious and sober-minded appeals to
the reason is evidently growing. The
masses still go 10 see a free show"
in fact, they go in greater numbers
than ever, as the growing facilities of
communication render the gathering
OF vast crowds easier, but they regard
it only in the light of a performance.
