where women May Not Pray.

There is a practically universal pro
hibition against women praying in Mo-
hammedan countries. They are not
admitted beyond the thresholds of the
mosques: but, on the other hand, the
Koran distinctly encourages women TO
pray in private. Some Hindoo congre-
cations deny the privilege of prayer TO
their women altogether. Among the
Ainu, a race supposed to be the abo-
rhymes Of Japan, women are not per-
mitted to pray or offer sacrifice except
In rare cases as the deputies OF their
husbands. The reason for this prac-
fice is that the Ainu women are not
supposed to possess souls, and there
fore their prayers would be quite IN
availing. Among the natives OF MAD
agascar women are permitted to pray,
but only to the powers of evir kind
of microscopy prayer. Only men are
permitted to addre0sprayers directly
to the Supreme Being.

The Last Resort.

"A near relation of the late Baron
.Munchausen on the maternal SIDE
lineally descended from Ananias ana
Sapphire, was telling party OF friehus
about freeing a bull buffalo In one OF
the great trees of California.
sThat story lacks likelihood" re-
marked the man who knows every
thing, like so many other men. the
buffalo belongs to the ruminant fam
ily. has four or five stomachs ana
walks on hoofs. 1t has no claws at all
and could no more climb a tree than a
Jersey cow"
"As a general proposition you are
right" said the story teller, with per-
fectly unruffled mien, "but this case
was quite exceptional. We were after
the buffalo with four of the most
vicious dogs that l ever knew. one
was a boar hound, one great dane
pne a psovie, or wolfhound, and the
other a registered bulldog, with jaws
like wrought iron. Well, they brought
the buffalo to bay at the foot OF the
big tree and pressed him so blamed
hard that he just had to climb. Ihat
was his only salvation. NEW York

Resisting Power.


Doctors tell us III these days Of germ
and toxins that the thing that counts
most in case is the resisting power
of the patient. Some men and women
can pass through an epidemic or even
be inoculated with its peculiar poison
germs and yet shake off infection, I'm
harmed. Others apparently just as
healthy succumb to the first contact
with disease and sink under 1t In spite
of the best nursing. Resisting power
is an individual affair, and many sur
prlses come to doctor and nurses as the
frail looking patient pulls through and
the robust seeming one dies. Medi-
cines can only aid the resisting pow
err" They can never take its place. 1t
determines in the end life or death In
every case.-Scottish American.
Alexandria gazette. [volume] (Alexandria, D.C.) 1834-1974, 1902-10-24
Character In the Feet.

In the form of the foot the sexes
differ as much or even more than In
that of the hand. A woman's foot Is
usually narrower in proportion than a
mans, while his will be considerably
stronger IN the ankle and more power
full in the formation of the toes, espe-
ciaily of the ball of the great toe.
When a woman owns strong, firm,
wide foot, many Of us experience per
haps no sensation of surprise at find
ing her strong minded" When a man
trips along upon a delicate little foot,
people instinctively believe him to be
lacking In power and often put him
down as efreminate.-Exchange.

VIVA, to Do With Old Hats.

If you want to make the best use of
any old hats that you may have, you
should take them to the Nicobar is
lands. There you will be received
with enthusiasm, for the people who
live in these islands have quite a pas
sion for them. Every one likes them,
and every one tries to get as many as
he cap. On fine morning the sea
roundabout these islands may be seen
dotted with canoes in each of which
is a savage, with nothing at all on but
a strip of cloth round his waist and a
tall hat. and the funny part of 1t is
that old hats are very much more
sought after than new ones. The Nlco-
bar natives regard new hats with sus-
picion and dislike.

Fooled the other Fellows.

An old Snowman says that one sum-
mer he travelled with circus side
show. An admission Of 10 cents was
charged, and all he had was pig with
one ear off. When people came in, he
said to them: Don't say word. Let
us fool the other fellows" The vic
tins went out, saying it was a great
show and encouraged others to go in.

five miles from the nearest town. Mr..

testify to their value in a household
