A little Moslem when she is four
years four months old goes through
the Name of-God." OIL Bismillah, cere-
mony-which begins her real life. She
is dressed in ~cloth-of-gold, with q veil
and wreath of flowers; and friends are
invited to salute the little ueen. She
sits on a gold cushion, which must be
borrowed II she hasn't one, and all
the rest sit on the floor. Then an old
mullah recites very slowly a certain
verse from the Koran, which Is also
written in saffron on a silver plate
Bib holds in her hand. She runs her
fingers over the words. and stammers
them after him. Say 1t not, Bib; be
a good girl, then you shall see your
presents" Soon they all cry, "Sha-
bash! Shabash! Wah! Wah!" and the
ceremony Of the little girls first les

WHERE CATS ARE VALUED.
Almost indispensable to Farmers OF
Southern California.

South0rn
I'm certain parts Of Southern Cali
fornis it ie- absolutely necessary to
have cats u successfully raise cattle.
The COWS feed on a res clover which
makes a superior quality of beef.
This clover grew very sparsely until
1t was discovered that one farmer,
who had raised a large number of
tabby cats, always had fine clover
fields.
Investigation proved that the cats
killed the field mice, who killed the
wild bees who fertilized the clover
seeds by carrying the pollen from
flower to flower. thus causing the
seeds to sprout thickly every year.
Now all the farmers have many cats.

was falling SO fast that the trail was
covered and completely lost track Of
Attorney j. NJ Thomas, who acted
as guide, dismounted from his horse and
made q detour Of the country in search
