Once he wanted q diplomatic post
abroad, Rome preferred. His riding
breeches and his eyeglass lost him that
dignity. Possibly, also, it was felt that
the, appointment of w. w. Astor as
United States minister to Rome was q
mistake that ought not to be too soon
repeated.
Aston was popular with the beggars,
who are thicker in Rome than in any
other city except Madrid and London;
he used to throw them handfuls of sill
yer coins. Astor and Van Allen are rel
atives, by the way, which gives Mr.. Van
Allen the powerful backing of Mrs. Will
liam Astor. It also accounts for GER
tain family similarity of type.
Van Allen must want something. He
has brought his daughters back to
Newport, though he once declared it no
fit place to bring up girls. His $50, 0oo,-
600 will buy him forgiveness for the
sneer. "a

China about the time the great native
teacher was living. In connection with
it there are many ceremonials and a
great following of mendicant monks.
Its teachings may be summed up to a
great extent in the ten commandments
which are given for the guidance of the
followers of Buddha. Five of these are
for all men and five for the priests.
Those for all men are as follows: do
not steal; do not kill; do not commit
adultery; do not lie; do not become in
toxicated." The five for the monks are
as follows: TAKE no solid food after
noon; do not visit dances, singing or
theatrical entertainments; use no or
naments or perfumery in dress; use no
luxurious beds; accept neither silver
nor gold." DANIEL CLEVERTON.
