Proxy Pilgrims.

There are men who make their liv'
ing by being pilgrims-by performing,
over and over again, the difficult pill,
grimage to Mecca. These wanderers
are called proxy pilgrims.
No Mahometan, no matter how good
his life, can be sure of going to
heaven unless he makes the long pill
grimage. But the long pilgrimage
takes time and money. Hence priest
discovered that it could equally well
be made by proxy. And now from
Constantinople, from Cairo, from
Jeddah the caravans to Mecca are
mostly made up of proxies. A pill
grim can proxy for more than one per-
son-for dozen if he likes. A cara
van of 1000 persons may actually rep
resent-by proXy-50,000 deyout pill
grims.

ChiIdren's Bad Teeth.

Governments, the world over, are
coming to realize that it is their duty
to look after school children's teeth.
The crushing power of false teeth is
only from one-fifth to half that Of
natural ones, and the mouth filled
with false teeth cannot be quite
healthy. But even by taking hold of
the teeth in childhood it is difficult
to make them last lifetime Out of
100000 children SIS per cent. are found
to have diseased teeth. This is the

Had a Thought Coming.

Frau Bic was awarded by the arbi-

her husband. through an accident on
board of a ship. Not long afterward
on the same ship q stokerr met with an
accident which cost him a leg, and
the same court awarded him $4,000.
Indignant Frau Bic went to the court
to complain because a man who only
lost leg got SO much more than she
was allowed for the loss Of husband.
The judge, a bland and willy old gen.
tleman, said: my dear lady, that
poor stoker can hardly buy new leg
with $4,000. Now, a good looking
woman like you with $3.50 can
easily get new husband, younger and
perhaps more loving than your late
husband" The widow wiped her eyes
