CALCUTTA's SUBTLE CHARM.
Fascination of the Indian City where
the Goddess Kali Is DevoutIy
Worshlped.

The charm of Calcutta works SLOWLY.
and, apart from government house and
its garden, there is nothing which at
once, rushing in as certain atmos-
pheres do, fills the Imagination, and
there is nothing which, by enchanting
grace or romantic history, at once stirs
the mind. But the charm is the more
enduring, perhaps, because it is so
slow, so unassertive, so uncommon.
Calcutta, in fact, may be compared
with the subtle women Of history
whose portraits in state galleries leave
us wondering how they altered the
fates or empires and consumed the
hearts of men. Its founder, Job Char
