journey to Handy even from Lapland,
and all come to worship an enshrlned
tooth.
Although even the most intelligent
priests of Buddhism assert solemnly
that the tooth they guard was once a
part Of the body OF the founder of
their religion, in their heart they must
know that if Buddha ever carried this
tooth in his head and the rest of his
teeth were of proportionate size his
mouth must have been as large and
feroeiOus as that Of a gorilla. On the
other hand, if this tooth was an excep-
tion to the rest it mnst have protrud-
ed from his lips like the tuslS of wild
boar. According to the priests the sa-
cred relic is an eye tooth from the left
side of Buddha's mouth. The eye
teeth of an adult man are about three
quarters Of an inch long. The holy
tooth" is more than two inches long.
The early records Of Buddhism tell
of tooth of a great teacher which
figured in the state ceremonies of
many Eastern potentates. For a time
it remained in India, the native country
Of the prophet and Travelled in state
from one court to another It was
the marriage dover Of many princesses
of the royal blood, and its possession
was believed to insure happiness both
ia this and after existences. AS a
matter of fact it was the cause Of end
less dissensions and not few muir
ders. With the wane of Buddhism in
India-for India turned away from
its greatest native teacher, even as
Palestine did from Christ-the holy
tooth was removed to the adjoining
island Of Ceylon, that there it might
abide in secure shrine. But it found
no rest. It was captured by one con
querOr. to be wrested away from him
by another. AT one time the Malabars
had it, at another the Portuguese, and
in the sixteenth century, according to
the most authentic records. it was pub
licly destroyed. In the presence Of the
Viceroy of India and his suite 1t was
burned in 1860 by the Catholic Arch
bishop Of Goa, who thus hoped to end
forever "a most abominable idolatry, I
as he called it.
Although the "holy tooth" was thus
! reduced TO ashes ana thrown to the
winds, it did not cease to exist in the
minds Of the faithful. six years later
the tooth was wanted to conclude an in
ternational marriage, and in order that
the ceremony should be conducted with
all due solemnlty the tooth was pro
duced in some way. A short time af
terward this piece Of bone was taker
