Oranges in Jamaica,

An article in the Fruit, Flower

Jamaica oranges can be had for
nothing in Jamaica, and do not

odd miles, costs Ella IS; the same

"a \ = T.
Isl "A new departure in Burmese. lit.
era ture, in the form Of a publica-
ton Of a Burmese: novel, has been
welcomed in Burma, says IA cor.
respondent Of the Lahore Tribune.
70 everyone familiar with the.lit-
esature of the Burmese and,
unhappily, they are not many:
there is no doubt that. this de-
parture will be welcomed as "a re.
lief from the tedious tales printed
in ponderous volumes and written
in conventional style. !, III.
An educated Burman we'll
known in Rangoof has. had the
happy idea Of: writing the novel
somewhat on the lines1of those is
sued daily by publishers in other
countries. The task was one beset
with many difficulties, the first
and greatest of these being the
language itself, for it's flexibility
in expressing new ideas makes it,
, we are told, a very unwieldy in
strument in the hands of even the
most accomplished scholar. The
cause of this stiffness, is to be
found in the evolution of Burmese
iitera ture. The first Burmese nov
Ell which introduces this new de-
parture from conventional litera-
ture, and surprised and even as
tonished Burmese renders, has
appeared in serial form in the
Friend of Burma and will be
shortly published in book form
with Illustrations. The story is
entitled "Maung Gin Manng Ma
Maydo Vatthu." 1t is interesting,
we are assured. not only as to its
not, but as giving much valuable
insight into Burmese family life
and into the customs and prac-
tees of the Burmese people. Bur
mese life is painted, not as seen
through European glasses, but
from within. by one who had lived
and is living in it.

The sale of she Ketchikan Mining Journal to Coutant & Wyatt, means that aGovernor" Swineford has retired from his position at the front of the procession in the newspaper field in Alaska. As a writer he has no peer in the district, and the profession has suf- fered a loss which it can Fl afford. He wrote fearlessly and forcibly, and every sentance bore the stamp ofwisdom and truth. The converts to his theory--or his hobby, if you will-are numbered by the thousand from Ketcbikan to Nome.
