not known to the Chinese. but was in

an ancestor of Shun Che. the first

The Manchus resemble the Chinese

of Arabia
Arabian historians place the Persian
loss in q single day at 100000 men
killed. This may be and probably is
an eXaggeration. but the fact remains
that the Persian dynasty came to an
end when the battle was over and that
ZOroastrianiSm. which had been the re-
ligiOn of Persia for over a thousand
years, was at once supplanted by Is

Every time workman falls from
forty story building there are people
to say. "Well. he probably didn't feel
1t when he struck" There is little or
no basis for this belief that person
is dead or unconscious at the end of
long fall. Our surviving jumpers from
Brooklyn bridge prove this. and that
person retains consciousness Is
shown by the case Of the English boy
who fell down pit some go feet deep
and shouted "BelowH' three times on

person falling would not be able to
