ing up in the canoe, casts out his line

within ten or fifteen minutes
An ingenious plan by which very
large fish are caught is by planting q
long pole on the shore in such a posi-
tion as to cause it to lean decidedly to-

close to the top and a long line with
baited hook at the end, is run through
the block and allowed to float out tC

knot to the bottom of the pole. AS soon
as a fish Is hooked its struggles Gauss

American Women and Hindooisn.

From the Indian Mirror
 American womanhood is acknowledged ly the finest the very best, physically and intellectually, of all the womanhood in the world. An ideal American woman is the ideal of the worlds womanhood This could not be unless the male Amer ican himself wcrshipped high ideal. An American girl will travel from end to end of the continent In absolute securi- ty. Travelling In the same railway com partment. no male will even think of staring at female. The American wo- men are goddesses and are worshipped because they deserve the adoration.
 And let the final word be said on our own behalf. If India and America are to be brought together 1t will be by the sympathy and active endeavors of Amer lean women We have had already abundant proofs of these matters. Amer ican women are among the foremost pro- pagandists of Hindooism and Buddhism Being such, they are likewise naturally interested in the understanding and so- lution of the national social problems. of India. An American league, with nu- merous branches, is now in existence, which has for it's object the social ame- Iteration of the Indian women.

Faolns of Today.

 Although it is seldom that specific case of thief training comes before the magistrates, the police have grounds for suspecting that number of houses in the neighborhood of Huston road are used for that purpose.
 A police court official states that the principal lesson taught the pupils in wrongdoing is how to snatch a watch without the owner knowing of it at the time. Then they are systematically in- structed in the extracting of letters from pillar boxes by means of weighted lines covered with bird lime, and in offering from shop tills with sticks dipped in tre- acle. Some time ago a trained thief, aged g. stole horse and cart at the Is- lington cattle market.
 The fact has been established that the majority of habitual criminals are made between the ages of 16 and 21. Many of

are negroes wherever they are, and the Chinese who take their places are dis franchised and ignored.
 The newspapers are good, but have practically no news except that west of Denver and little about Roosevelt. The ride of 4SO miles to Los Angeles is like gliding through sweet dream, valley of flowers and of fruit White villas and cottages, churches and universities gleam out among the flowers and shrubs. The world wears the wreath of beauty upon it's brow out here. and old nature Is gar landed and gay with flowers. The noun tains, the small ones, are cultivated all over. Later We strike the ocean, and the mighty Pullmans carry one along the sandy beach of the Pacific for miles. It is Southern Pacific all the way. There Is nothing else out here where nature works upon a mammoth scale. The Southern Pacific is built the same way. There never were such engines and such palatial cars as this road has.
 Los Angeles Is a wonder, too. It Is much like Atlanta, Ga Here is a pro- fusion of flowers and an excess of mill lionaires Great orchards of lemons, lines olives, peaches and other things fill all this part of the country. Within hundred miles are mountain ranges over a mile high and waterfalls four thousand feet. It is here the world wears wreath of roses forever upon it's brow and snow capped mountains, orange groves and ocean meet and touch.
 The journey is nearly ended. Nearly four thousand miles from here we think of the cotton fields of Dixie; of the brave. patient people there; of the stronghold of Americanism as well as of chivalry. It's beauties of scenery are not so grand, yet there Is no place like 1t on this earth. All who can see this Sand should do It. It will make the evening of life richer to have the memory In store and make brighter all the intervening days.
