PROXY PlIarlms.

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 a priest
discovered that it could equally well
be made by proxy And now from
constantinople, from Cairo, from
Jeddah the caravans to Mecca arc
mostly made up of proxies. A pill
grim can proxy for more than one per-
SOM for a dozen If he likes a cara
van of 1000 persons may actually rep
resent-by proxy-50,0 0Oo devout pill
grims.

AuatraIla.a via ousters.

Oysters are sometimes regarded as
dangerous but they are not usually
considered savage. A Queensland
Judge, however, has decided that they
are wild beasts. Before a royal com
mission on the pearling industry,
which has been sitting at Brisbane, a
witness stated that eight years ago he
had laid 100000 shells in the neigh
borhood Of Friday island. The Jap
anese stole the shells. and the district
court Judge held that as pearl shell
oysters were wild animals there was
no penalty for stealing them

Proof d Japanese EnthugIasn.

The spect~' 'ors at wrestling matches
in Japan the winner with their
hats. THIS is a custom with tha Jap
anese for showing their appreciation
of the skill of the winner. The hats
are gathered mp by the attendants and
handed to the champion
Eventually the owners come for
ward and redeem their hats with pres
ents of various kinds. The custom in
question is, it is explained, due to a
recognition of the fact that enthusi-
asm is likely to cool down shortly
after the event which excited it is
passed. So to prove the genuineness Of
his admiration the Jap gives his hat as
a pledge, to be redeemed in his cooler
moments.

The Useful Hen.

Country constables who make
living arresting speeding automobiles
wouldn't have half 50 much troable
stopping the scorchers if they used a
little ingenuity says one of the Of
tenders. Chains across the road and
moving vans blocking the highway are
all right to accomplish the purpose,
but they're cumbersome. My idea for
causing prompt slow-up~is to scatter
a lot of grain in a road and turn lot
of hens loose They would block the
road all right, and if there's one thing
that will make a chauffeur slow up it's
hen. Dogs are bad enough, but
hen always runs The wrong way, and
il the machine is going at any speed
usually ends up under the wheels Hit
ting a hen will sometimes throw the
front wheels out of line and cause the
car to swerve, SO drivers almost inya
riabiy SLOW up and give poultry a
chance to get out of the way A hen
speed trap is great idea, to my way
Of thinking, and Of course, if one Of
the birds were killed the cost could
easily be added to the drivers fine

for the protective measure, Yes, a.
214, No, 6,9l6; thus radically increas-

an absolute majority of all the votes
cast in the State in this behalf; while
the fsh-wheel bill has but a meagre
