THE STORY.

IF JEREMIAH had hoped when he
l was carried down into Egypt with
the people under Johanan that there
would be a turning of the people back
to God and a longing for return to
Jerusalem, he was forced to abandon
such thought after a few months So
journ in the land of the Pharaohs. On
every hand he saw evidences of the
utter abandon of the Jews to the
Egyptian influences. Partly to ingrati-
ate themselves into the favorable con-
sideration of the Egyptians and partly
to crafty an intensely religious ma
ture which demanded some form of
worship, the Jews seemingly We'd
with each other in seeing how COM
pletely they could do homage to the
gods OF the Egyptians and they be-
came regular devotees at the affairs
Of these gods, burning incense and
pouring out drink offerings before the
queen of heaven.
At Migdol, and at Tahpanhes. and
at Noph, and in the country OF Path
ros, where the Jews had settled. the
same conditions prevailed, as Jeremi-
ah the prophet discovered as he
passed from place to place and beheld
the idolatrous practices of the Jews.
1t seemed as though the heart of the
prophet would break with its burden
of sorrow at the sights which he be-
held-God seemingly was utterly for
gotten, and only the names of the gods
Of the Egyptians were upon the lips Of
the Jews.

IRISH SOIL FOR sERPENTs
Cargo Was Shipped to Australia
to Keep Snakes Out of
Houses.

In a London newspaper of last
year it was stated that an Irish res
. ident in New South Wales, whose farm
/ or selection was infected by venomous
snakes, had photographed to Ireland
for a consignment of Irish soil to be
sent to him. SO that he might have it
spread about the vicinity of his dwell
ing" This is doubtless the revival of
an old but true story of the importa-
ton of a shipload of Irish soil into
New South Wales. Some time before
transportation ceased-about 1S36-the
we'll known Wentworth family built a
stone mansion on the south shore of
Sydney harbor, near the Heads, and
named it Vaucluse: but after a years
occupation the family became so terri
fed at the number of deadly black and
brown snakes. which infested the beau
tiful grounds, and often got into the
house itself, that serious thoughts were
entertained of abandoning the man
sion. The assigned servants went
about ip terror, and at night every
door and window was carefully closed,
says Chambers Journal But snakes
still got entry in some way. Then it
was proposed that the whole lower
course of the walls should be sheathed
with glass to prevent the reptiles from
ascending. This, if carried out, must
have failed; and then came the happy
inspiration to have soil brought from
Ireland. and to form a complete in
closing ridge around the entire estate.
If the writer remembers Alright, there
were two cargoes brought, each in a
convict transport, one of which was
named the Britannia. She ought TO
have been named st. Patrick. Both
ships loaded in Dublin, and the pre-
cious soil was duly deposited around
Vaucluse. But, alasi the snakes didn't
care a cuss," and came crawling about
as usual. Nevertheless many Of the
emancipated Irish convicts who We're
living in the vicinity firmly believed in
the virtues of the earth from the
''ould sod" and begged for some of
it to protect their own dwellings. The
writer's grandfather, who had large
estate at St. Georges Head, on the OPP
posite side of the harbor. and employ
ed num- Der OF assigned cOnVIctS,
several of whom had been transport
ed for sedition, could not prevent them
from taking a boat at night time and
stealing a few bagfuls of soil OCCASION
ally. And the writer's mother we'll re-
membered that when she was a child
she was always taken by her Irish
nurse TO play in an especial part of
the garden, which was made safe from
.sarpints" by a circle of ground about
fifty yards in circumference, inelosed
by a ridge a few inches high of the
soil from Vaucluse.

pretty loudly to let him know that we
were near but judging by the growls
he was disposed to dispute the right
of way.

So called him to my perch, and had

emerged from the jingle, followed by
two small cubs.
She passed under our tree and saun-
tered into the thicket, but reappeared
a few minutes later without the cubs,
and remained watching US for some
time, apparently considering if it was
worth while to claw US off our perches.
After some embarrassing moments pro-
ductive of the bluest of funks she dis
appeared, and my jemadar, who had
been dumb while the interview lasted,
found his voice and gave tongue in the
most agonizing yells to the rest of our
party, who were close behind, to come
to our assistance.
No one, however, appeared, and IL is

probably have attacked them. After

KITE FLYING AS A CURE.
New York Physician Has Novel
Remedy for the Overworked.

Kite flying in the early morning is
the latest cure for neurasthenia, the
pet complaint of jaded society men and
women. 1t is advocated by Dr. ]. R.
Mckenzie, who asserts that it provides
both the mental diversion and physical
exercise that are essential to cure.
One may plunge into the gay life of
society with impunity. DR.. Mckenzie
disordered nerves. if this treatment is
followed. He says that one hour in
the open air before breakfast, flying a
kite, is better than all the remedies
known to medical science. DR.. Nc
Kenzie explained his theory to an
American reporter recently, says the
New York American.
Physicians have been prescribing
open-air exercise for tired and worn
nerves for years. he said, but while
outdoor exercise is certainly beneficial,
they have neglected a most important
point-that of insuring similarly bene-
fetal exercise for the mind
IF good results are to be obtained
from outdoor exercise in cases of neu-
rasthenia, it is imperative that the
mind must have the same relaxation
as the body.
With this in view, I have worked
out my theory of kite flying as a cure
for. patients suffering from the nervous
ills brought on by long protracted in
diligence in the nerve racking func-
tons of society. Probably any other
exercise which entailed the same
chance for mental rest and change and
the same amount of physical exercise
would answer the purpose as well, but
have chosen the kite as perhaps the
best suited in every respect to produce
the desired effect.
I have not put my theory to a real
practical test, but am confident that
the kite cure will be decided sue
cess.
I would advise patients suffering
from neurasthenic troubles to go into
the parks with kites. which they can
spend and hour daily in flying. They
can go alone or in a party, as they
please. The effect of a merry chat at
sunrise in the open air on topics of
outdoor interest would be of a bene-
fetal nature. In two weeks / believe
that almost any ordinary case of in
sonnia or other nervous affection
could be cure.
You may ask me why I have chosen
the kite as a cure for these maladies.
You want to know why a half mile or
mile constitutional in the morning
would not be just as effective. Well, 1
win tell you. A man walks mechani-
calIy His mind is free to dwell upon
what subjects it pleases. He may think
about dinners or dances, or may worry
about finance, but still he keeps on
walking automatically. That is just
the trouble with early walks. They are
of no value to the neurasthenic patient
unless his or her mind is taken away
from the customary events of daily
life. from the worries and cares of the
day.
kite flying. while it gives the same
opportunity for physical exercise as a
walk, requires the attention of the pa
tent. 1t needs close watching, and
has just enough mild excitement con-
nected with it to hold the attention of
the patient"
