CHOICE MISCELLANY
Growing "a Pagoda.

A strange festival was held not long
ago in Mandalay, the chief town of
Burma, says lie Tour du Monde. A
new pagoda, sacred to the Buddhist
religion, was to be completed 10y the
placing of huge crown or thi upon its
summit, more than 300 feet above the
ground,
To witness the ceremonies came Bud
dhists from all lndo-C China, from the
Himalayas, from Laos and Chan and
Siam. Warriors from KatsChin. sor-
cerers from Mot and people from end
less other places made IL medley Of
languages Ike that at Babel
On Il street corner would be seen Il
barber pulling a customers tooth with
an old rail. On another corner Il Mo-
hammedan bird dealer sold Gagged paro-
quets to Buddhists, who piouSly set
them free. At very modern booths one
could buy ice cream, soda or tea. Man
dalay was Il gorgeous spectacle, and
the new pagoda was the center of it.
Every pagoda has at its summit n
thi, or cap, the placing of which is Of
ten a herculean task. The one now to
be raised weighed several hundred
pounds and consisted of huge gilded
ball and crown and IA great spindle
above it.
To get it to the top an inclined plane
of bamboo Scatfolding like huge to-
boggan slide had been built and was
decorated with silk flags and umbrel-
las. Up the inclined plane the heavy
cap was slowly pulled, Six days We're

Where Dignity Holds Sway.

Representative Cochran of Missouri
had often promised Senator Carmack
of Tennessee that he would present
him with Il special growth of the fine
Missouri tobacco that could not be
beat in the world The Tennessee sen-
ator, who enjoys good "chaw,' wait
ed in vain for this precious gift. So
one day he wrote "A note to Cochran
telling him to come over to the senate
side of the capitol quickly, as he want
ed to see him on important business
Cochran, who is a short, stubby man,
came down the corridor pulling like IA
gasoline runabout. Carmack led him
quietly into the senate cloakroOm, and
Cochran settled himself back into n
seat for the anticipated conference
Cochran" said Carmack, give me
a chew of that tobacco"
Cochran handed out plug, and the
TenneSsecan placed a good portion Of
it comfortably in his mouth, Quietly
turning to leave the room, Carmack
said

Too much care cannot be given 10

or they Coarsen the skin. But there
are good cold creams and if one will
