paper and put into the hands of one
of the greatest josses. These disap-
pear, and then the joss either mods or
shakes his head In answer.
On the altar or affairs are several
brass and copper vessels, in which the
worshiper leaves n sandalwood punk
burning in such a position that the
ashes will fall on the fine sand in the
vessel. When one of these Is full, it is
emptied into an immense bronze vase

emptied into the ocean. The Chinese

tcstines from which Mr. Pingree suffered
left practically no hope 'for the patients
recovery.
Toward the end of his illness Mr.. Pin
gree suffered great pain and weakened
rapidly. He was unable to retain nourish-
ment. His mind, however, remained fair
ly clear. During the whole of Tuesday he
was practically kept alive by injections of
