CUSTOM OF ORIENTAL NATIONS.
Salute by kissing the Foot Is a. Old
a. History.

The custom Of kissing the feet OF
persons whom 1t was desired to honor
originated with the ancients. The peo-
pie Of oriental nationals used to Mss
the hands and feet or hens Of the
clothes Of the persons they wished TO
show respect for.
The ancient Egyptians got this Gus
tom from the Assyrians, and later the
Greeks adopted the habit from the
Egyptians. The Romans followed the
Greeks, and then Pontifex Maximus
had his great toe kissed by celebrities
The story will be remembered Of the
old Briton ruler who appeared to do
homage to a Roman monk after the
conquest Of Briton. He was told that
1t was customary to kiss the foot Of
the holy father. He hesitated for
a moment and then. bending down,
he suddenly seized the monk by the
ankle and, jerking it up to his lips,
toppled the worthy father over back.

He dropped his sword for q moment

Strathgates answer was a resump-

slivered along his blade this morning.
Yet he imagined that Strathgate had
done his best. He had shot his bolt.
He could do no better than he mad
done, and there began to come into
Carrington's mind sense of mastery.
Again he met Strathgate's furious at
tack. This time it seemed to Car
rington that the onslaught was less
rapid and less dangerous. Probably
this was a misapprehension and the
fact that Darlington parried the vi
cious thrusts more easily may have
been due to a growing sense OF famil-
iarity with Strathsate's method.
Btu Strathgate was not yet spent
There were certain dangerous thrusts
he knew of. dangerous in that they
exposed the one who used them to a
counter-attack. and dangerous from
their uneXpectedness to one against
whom they were made; consequently,
Strathgate was usually doubtful about
employing item, but Darlington had
confined his attention simply to parry

gate, thinking rapidly, determined that
it would be safe to employ this un-
usual stroke. After marvellous
