THOUGHT CHILD WOULD DIE.
--Cuticura Remedies Cured at Cost
of Seventy-Five Cents.

my little boy, when only an infant
of three months, caught the Cuban
Itch. Sores broke out from his head
to the bottom of his feet. He would
itch and claw himself and cry all the
time. He could not sleep day or night,
and light dress is all he could wear.
l called one of our best doctors to
treat him, but he seemed to get worse.
He suffered so terribly that my hus-
band said he believed he would have
to die. had almost given up hope
when LADY friend told me to try the
Cuticura Remedies. l used the Cuti-
cura Soap and applied the Cuticura
Ointment and he at once fell into a
sleep, and he slept with ease for the
first time since two months. After
three applications the sores began to
dry up, and in just two weeks from the
day commenced to use the Cuticura
Remedies my baby was entirely well.
The treatment only cost 75c, and /
would have gladly paid 500 if could
not have got it cheaper. feel safe in
saying that the Cuticura Remedies
saved his life. He is now boy of five
years. Mrs. Zana Miller, Union City,

ONE CAUSE FOR SATISFACTION.
Drummer Found Something Good
Even in Railroad Accident.

A state senator of New York says he
was riding in the smoking car on a
little one-track road in the northern
part of the state two weeks ago, and
in the seat in front of him sat jew
elry drummer. He was one of those
wide-awake, ELECTROMAGNETIC
better-of-him style of men. Presently
the train stopped to take water and
the conductor neglected to send back
a fiagman. A limited express, running
at the rate of ten miles an hour, came
along and bumped the rear end of the
first train. The drummer was lifted
from his seat and pitched, head first,
against the seat ahead. His silk hat
was damned clear down over his ears.
He picked himself up and settled back
in his seat No bones had been
broken. Then he pulled off his hat,
drew long breath and, Strengthening
up, said: "Hully gee! Well, they didn't
get by us, anyway"

parts Of the empire, come down by
thousands to the western bank of the
Gauges in order to battle. From in
fants to decrepit old men they dip
into the water and mutter their pray
ers, with an earnestness and sincerity
which cannot be doubted. The great
CHATS, or steps down into the water,
are thronged with devotees. Many
carry away the water, for household
use, or to be borne laboriously back
home to the pilgrims native village.
Only the western bank of the Gauges
is efficacious, to die on the eastern
bank is to be reborn an ass. So the
western bank is lined with temples,
CHATS, and palaces, in various stages
of disrepair. There is merit in erect
ing one of these structures, but no
merit in maintaining one after another
man has built it. One huge brown
stone palace especially, a wonder of
workmanship, has sat down" in dis
orderly ruin on the bank.
If ever modern science takes hold
of India, the popularity of Benares
is gone, for this worship of the Gauges
is thing to give believer in germs
the shudders. People battle and drink
the water, right from the spot where
sewage is seeping through the CHATS.
They are not troubled by the proxim-
ity of bathers in all stages of disease.
The fact that corpses are soaking in
the stream just above them does not
disturb the worshippers particle.
The practice of burning the dead at
Benares is famous. After the body,
wrapped in thin covering, has lain
for time in the Ganges, a rough
funeral pyre, three or four feet high,
is built of logs and sticks bought for
the purpose, and it is consumed with
more or less thoroughness. The parish
dogs thrive by the fact that the job
is not always well done; saw one
cur gnawing a burnt fragment of a
human body.

much to admire in Hinduism; but

Not for That Kind of Fire.

The Edmonton firemen are COM
planning about people sending in
alarms from the new boxes by trying
to post letters in them. A young fell

somehow l cannot get past the dirt
and filthiness of it all. There, for
another example, is one well, the most
sacred bit of water in India. This is
a pool, the size of the swimming tank
In an ordinary gymnasium, without
inlet or outlet, filled from the Ganges,
and cleaned out only once a year. To
battle in it one must pay high fee,
as well as buy the flowers, milk, con-
dictionary, sandalwood and other
votive offerings that are poured into
the pool by the bathers. AS result
of all these accumulations, the con-
tents, instead of being merely dirty
water, are a viscous mass, nauseat-
ing even to look upon or to smell.
Yet tottering old women, strong men,
and blooming youth ducked in this
place. I was impressed by a touch
of human sentiment here; a man and
woman went into the pool tied to-
gether, thus hoping to insure that
when they should be born again they

Religion that Is Not eft to Print"
The endeavor to give fair repre-
sentation of the conditions in India
amidst which missionaries work, and
against which they must strive, is him
dered by the simple fact that were I
to write plainly what l saw as the
prominent feature of Hindu Worship
in Benares this paper would not be
permitted transmission through the
mails. The commonest object of wor-
ship may not even be limited at; while,
so far from writing a description of
the sculptures on the walls of one
temple, they may not even be recalled
without disgust. 1t is a distinct
ascent to contemplate the sacred
monkeys that fill one temple-more
than 200 of them scampering about
the trees and the courts-or the
sacred cows and bulls that abound
throughout the city. When a wealthy
Brahman dies, bull is turned loose
in the city to wander through the mar
row streets and to pillage, undisturbed,
from the bazaars. The molten calf
which the backslidden Israelites wor-
shipped is also here, to be purchased
as household god.

That is why thousands of persons are
yearly brought here for that express
purpose, and wealthy rajahs build
palaces along the river bank in which
to spead their dying days. The sim

One More DisiIIusionment.
At Benares 1 discovered a grievance
against the stories / used to hear and
read, when youngster in Sunday
school, about these "fakeers," and the
other Hindu pilgrims to the Gauges
cleansing food. I saw thousands of
the latter in single day. 1t used to
be represented that these men and
women were all so smitten with a
sense of their sins, so burdened with
their consciousness of unholiness, that
they performed all their exacting vows
In order to secure spiritual release.
But missionaries on the spot tell me
that the Hindu Is as lacking in a
sense Of sin as ! found the Japanese
and the Chinese to be. They know
little or nothing about what the Anglo
Saxon experiences as a consciousness
OF personal sin. What these people
are trying to expiate is the dread bur-
den Of life itself, and to secure, by
the favor of the innumerable gods in
their pantheon, a mitigation of life's
ills In the next birth, in the long order
Of reincarnations.
Every Hindu's dread is that he may
at death be transmigrated into lower
caste man, or even into a woman, or
into an ass, a snake, toad, or some
other loathsome creature. His hope
Is that he may be reborn into a
higher caste, possibly a Brahman;
and eventually, in the dreary process
sion of ages, into Nirvana; which,
while mystically explained in various
ways. amounts really to the extinc-
ton of personal identity. Some of
the holy men even expect to proceed
from this present life into Nirvana.
