ZOrOastriRn Rites,

Xoroaster enjoined purity of body rs
we'll as of soul, and the Avesta pre-
scrbcs very elaborate ablutions and
luStrationS to remove any detilement.
The greatest pollution is that which
arises from contact with anything
dead, as death is the creation of Ahr-
man and his greatest triumph over the
power of Ormazd. The code of the
Nendidad assigns the mine nights abb
luton" for the publication of persons
so polluted. 1t consists in series of
Sprinklngs with holy water and other
liquid, accompanied by Il wearisome
amount of ceremonial detail, to exercise
the spirit of detilement. The Greek
writer Lucian in one of his humorous
Dialogues seems to ridicule this purifi-
,atory rite when he says that the Magi
in nine nights cleansed Pythagoras OF

to be presented to his king, George III.
The barouct lived near Il spot where
one of the most celebrated battles had
been fought during the wars of the
roses. but of that fact he had never
chanccd to hear. His mind was set
upon more tangible things He had no
use for information which was not up
to date When he was presented to
his sovereign, the king. who had looked
him up and was prepared with the
right thing to say, remarked gracious

CHURCH TO PLANT A CROP.
Presbytersans at Moran Have Move
Plan to Raise Money.

PresbyteTsans at Moran Have Novel
Plan to Raise Money.
Moran, Kan, May IA week from
Tuesday the Presbyterian congregation
at Moran will put in a crop Of 80 acres
of kaffir corn. It is expected that the
money which this crop will make for
the Presbyterian congregation will go
a long way toward paying the current
expenses of their church for the pres
ent year.
The plan was originated by the pas
tor of the church.. Rev. z. L. Coombs,
several months ago. AS in many of the
smaller churches, the burden of pay
ing the expenses is some times heavy.
It occurred to Rev. Coombs that this
would be a good way to tighten the
burden. Jim Strong, a member of the
church, proffered the use of a 30-acre
tract belonging to him, and adjoining
Moran.
A week from Tuesday the whole con-
gregation, or a good part of it, is ex-
pected to turn out and put in the crop
of kaffir corn, between sunsirse and sun
set The men are expected to do the
blowing, narrowing and planting, while
the women of the congregation are ex-
pected to serve dinner to the workers
on the farm. The congregation ex-
poets to have a good deal of amuse-
ment over the days work. A photogra-
pher will go out and take a picture of
the congregation at work. It is antici-
pated that there viii be from 20 to 25
teams at work on the farm that day.

BANKS INCREASE HOLDINGS.
Enormous Sums of Savings Deposits
Invested in Railroad Bonds.


Some time ago. according to the Rail-
road Gazette, using as a basis for final
comparison the savings bank returns
Tor the year 1904, then the latest at
hand, we pointed out the great and in
creaSlng degree to which the eastern
saving banks were becoming absorb
ents of railroad bonds The returns
Tor 1900, now coming in, repeat the tale.
The savings banks of Massachusetts
ana connecticut combined had at the
end of the fiscal year covered bv the
new reports the great sum of 1858, 616, 617
assets distributed among some 800
banks The Massachusetts banks in
creased their holdings of railroad bonds
during the year by s12.13O. 128 and the
Connecticut banks by So O62, 765=the
| latter sum representing almost two
thirds of the total increase of assets of
In two New England states alone
there were thus taken by savings banks
last year $50, 293, 493 in railroad bonds
or a sum within about 20 per cent Of
all the other investments of the year
OF the savings banks of the two states
It should be said that, in the Connecti-
cut returns, railroad shares are merged
with bonds, but the amount is so small
that it may be ignored Going outside
OF the banks the extent to which con-
servative institutions are taking up
progressively railroad bonds may be
Illustrated by Harvard university,
which, ten years ago out of total in
I
bonds amounting to 81, lis, 1913, rising
now to 1924, 828 IN a total investment
of $1S,036,025. OF its total funds, it had
about a quarter in railroad bonds in
1895, now more than one-third.
It is to be remembered, too, how the
increased railroad bond investment has
come in the face of the competition of
industrial and other bonds during the
last few years. The general subject
broadens when we reflect on the great
volume of railroad bonds of various
