The crumpet story.

Oliver Wendell Holmes professed to
have a profound respect for the Dutch,
possibly OIL account of what he used
to call 1.-The European aborigines OF
America" being Dutch. He gave an
aspect of slyness to his respect which
inspired the idea that 1t was not un-
tempered by humor, but he maintained
that the Dutch, In spite Of their stolidi-
ty. had a great deal Of humor them
selves. "For Instance" he would say.
"tle crumpet story has a Dutch ori-
GIN" "What Is the crumpet story!'
people would ask. And he would tell
them that 1t had many variants, but
the one with which he was familiar
was about 8 man who was going to he
hanged aud was asked whether he had
any last request to make and said he
would like to have dozen hot crum-
pets. very buttery. because he mad new

The Zoroastrian faith acknowledges
Ormazd, Ahura Mazda, Lord Wis
dom," as the supreme god. with six
archaugeIs, Amesha Spenta, and
company of angels, Yazata, about him
to rule and guide the world. The In
fernal host Of fiends and archhends
who war against heaven and strive to
destroy the future life Of man Is led by
Anra Mainyu, the evil spirit. In dis
cussing with these Zoroastrians the
subject of the origin Of evil l found
that they look upon the supreme being,
Ahura Mazda. as comprising WITHIN
himself the two powers Of good and
evil-namely, Spenta Mainyu, the holy
spirit, and Anra Mainyu, the evil spir-
It, This Is similar to the monotheistic
view held by the Parsis Of India In
opposition to the statement frequently
made that Zoroastrianism Is pure dual

tlon of the dead, which their faith has
taught them since early times. and this
doctrine is connected with the belief
that there will come a saviour or mes

how much Helen Keller, losing her
sight ut nineteen months, really retain

Bridgman, a woman Of much less In,
tellect, there was evidently little or
nothing left, even as memory. With
her taste and smell were very feeble,
so that communication with the world
was, indeed, through narrow pas
sage. Her sensitiveness to vibration
was so fine that without any trace OF
the sense Of hearing she was aware OF
the tolling Of bell. But her biogra'
pher, giving US in detail the record OF
the slow steps Of her education, tells
US little of what idea she was able to
form OF things. 1t Is Schopenhauer

want to know of the born blind. he
