OUR OLDEST DOLL.
IL Was brought From England over
Two CenturIea Ago.


Two Centuries Ago.
Long, long ago, when William Penn
sailed rrom England on bis second
visit to America, what do you think
he brought with him on the good ship
Canterbury An English doll. This
passenger is the sole survivor OF that
voyage across the Atlantic. which was
made over 200 years ago.
William Penn had a little daughter
named Letitia. Letitia heard her IA
ther tell wonderful tales Of what he
saw and heard in Pennsylvania on his
first visit to this country, thousands Of
miles distant from Letitia's homo. He
often told her about little Miss Ran
kin, who, living as she did in the will
derness Of Pennsylvania (for this was
long ago, remember). had no toys at
all. not even one rag doll. When Lett
tia's father was getting ready to again
cross the ocean TO America his little
girl insisted upon sending doll to that
lonesome little girl.
So doll was dressed In a cOurt cos
tune Of striped and delicately tinted
brocade and velvet. The skirt was
held out by enormous hoops, for such
was the fashion of the well dressed la
dies of that period The doll itself is
twenty inches high and has the long
waist and slender form of the court
beauties she left in her native land.
Her hair is rolled back from her face.
much in the style of today.
This doll now lives in Montgomery
county, Maryland, in the strictest Sc
clusion. She is only removed from her
careful wrapplngs when little girls de-
sire the honor Of making the ncquaint-
ance Of the oldest doll in America

successfully. vt last they decided to
drown him out. SO. procuring four
pals, each took two and they carried
water for two solid hours and poured
it into the hole in the ground in which
the said "chuck" had taken up his

After about half an hour the wood

liberately walked down to the brook

RIDING A CAMEL
More Convenient and Less firing
Than Horseback Riding.

Camel riding in the desert of StAaca
is not so very fatiguing after one has
learned how, A veteran traveller in
that district describes the process:
Each riding camel has bride, or
rather a halter, of plated leather like
an ordinary halter and the camel is
guided as n horse would be If riding
him with one rein only. The saddle is
a most elaborate affair To adjust
one properly on camel's hump is an
art extremely difficult to master First
two cushions Of leather, stuffed with
grass straw, are placed on the animals
hump, and on these is set the saddle
This latter consists of two wooden
forks, one in front and one behind. con
nected by 4 side board. Above this is
placed tie seat of the saddle. which is
built like square saucer. The tops of
the wooden forks rising in front and
behind form two saddlehorns, and.
once one has negotiated his way into
the saucer and installed the feet and
legs by letting them. from the knee
downward, hang over the front one is
pretty safe from falling ont. Cushions
anu lhSS IlltCtl III lhlN SlU'tllNt 'lf'-
preston add to the comfort. The sad
die is secured by Il wide girth and also
by shoulder strap and grth at the
back that takes the place of a crupper.
There are, of course, no stirrups, the
foot merely hanging over the front.
After one has learned to avoid an Oc-
casional dig in the middle of the back
from the hindmost horn and has be-
come accustomed to the weight of the
legs hanging over the front, camel rid
Ing is very comfortable and far less
firing than horseback riding, especially
as ones position can be varied in many
ways by riding sidesaddle or crossing
the legs on the camels neck. and so
forth. The long, swinging gait is
fairly easy, and one can move about
on camels back in n manner that
would startle any ordinary horse.
"On the saddle are carried pair of
leather saddlebags, wherein l carry
books, maps, instruments, cartridges,
lunch and the like From the horns of
the saddle are hung rifle, field glasses,
prismatic compass and water bottle.
Altogether it is Il pretty complete out
fit and only equaled by n Chinese chair
for convenience in travelling when one
wishes to hunt and nap at the same
/ time"

1t has been known in Egypt and in the
valleys of the Euphrates and the Tlgrls
since the time when history "runneth
not TO the contrary" The prehistoric
races which formerly lived in the fa-
nous lake dwellings," which were
built on platforms supported by piles
driven in the lakes of Switzerland, had
their mcaling stones. wheat mortars,

years ago. Wheat found In ancient
Egyptian tombs and in the ruins of the
lake dwellings referred to is identical
with that which we use today.

FESTIVALS IN MOROCCO.
One Month when the Moor Fasts All
nay and Feasts All Night.


A traveller writes: an Morocco the
Nazarene can never tell how time
stands in relation to the Moorish year.
The Mohammedan calendar knows but
354 days, so, MS the Moors lose some
eleven days in the year, their festivals
are constantly varying in date. The
most important, of course, is Rama
dan, when Moslems fast from the rls-
ing to the setting of the sun during the
month. The Moor fasts all day and
feasts all night. and throughout the
small hours in certain Moorish cities
officials pass down the. streets in sol
emn procession, armed with musical in
struments, and one at their head calls
upon the servants Of God to eat and
drink before the advent of the dawn.
On one night toward the end of Ra-
MADAM it is well known that the gates
of heaven are opened in order that the
prayers of the faithful may he heard.
and it is equally certain that all the
devils and genii are kept in some prison
of the underworld throughout the
month.
Another feast Of Importance is the
Aid cl Kabecr. whic' takes place on the
tenth day of the las' month of the Mo.
hammedan year. 1t celebrates the sac
riflce of 1shmael mot Isaac by Abra-
ham on Mount Morah. Certain pray
ers are said in the mosques, and after
these the cadi, standing in some prom
inent position, cuts the throat of Il
sheep that is then carried in Il basket
I&headlong speed to the towns chief
mosque. If the sheep he alive when it
reaches the mosque, the ensuing year
Will be prosperous one for the town.
BY means of gun fire and trumpet call
all the city is Informed that the sacri-
hce has been killed, and then every
householder kills sheep on the thresh-
old of his own home. This sheep has
been bought on the previous day and
tied up in readiness for the feast.
"Still another festival of great inn
portance in Morocco is the Moolud.
which takes place in the month that is
called the spring of flowers 1t is
ushered in by singing and dancing and
music and seems to he founded on some
old forgotten native festival When
the Moolud comes round n blue mark
is placed between the eyebrows of
young children in order that the evil
eye may be averted from them. The
festival Is also notorious by reason of
the performance of the Aisawi, the fol
lowers of Mohammed bin Aisa of Me,
quinez. the patron saint of snake
charmers.
"These Aisawi may be compared
with the dancing dervishes of other
Mohammedan countries. The Aisawi
are accustomed to repeat aloud a SEN
tence that contains the master word of
their order, and they howl it until the
sound is not comparable to anything
one has heard before, In moments of
extreme frenzy the devotees are known
to seize sheep or even dogs and tear
them to pieces with their hands. Some
may be seen devouring sheep before
it is dead"
