Hindus Not Only Despise Them, They
Fear and Hate Them.
BY his fellow Hindu the Mang. one
of the lowest of all Indian castles. Is
not only despised, but even feared and
hated A writer In the Times of India
says: ITO be cruel Is to be 'Msng
hearted;' to fly into passion may be
expressed in Marathe idiom as having
Mang within one. When on the oc-
casion of an eclipse fears are awak-
ened for the safety of the sun or moon,
Il is the Mang whose help is sought.
He goes among the people claiming
their propltiatory gifts. saying: Give
your gifts that the grasp may be re-
moved. For are not Rahu and Ketu.
the enemies who have laid evil hands
on the heavenly bodies, themselves
Mangsp Similarly, to their recognized
relation with dark worship and with
subterranean and demoniac influences
is to be traced the making of offerings
to Mang women on Dasera day and
the sinister fact That there are few
great buildings erected In pre- British
days in this part of India that have
not-whether they be temples or forts
or palaces-Mang victims built into
their foundations.
'The peculiar place that these popu-
lar superstitions have given to the
Mang community is seen especially in
the ceremonies that are sometimes per-
formed for the removal of disease
Frequently when some one has fallen
Ill JOSH Is consulted and explains
some evil spirit. The one effective pre-
scription in such q case Is to call
Mang and give him a dinner This is
not by any means an act of friendli-
ness toward desplsed community, but
has as its object apparently the pro-
pitiation Of the demoniac power and
the removal of the source of the dis
ease from the sick man to its proper
habitatlon.
with this end in view practices of
sympathetic magic, which can be par
alleled in the folk lore Of many peo-
pies, are employed. Portions of the
finger nails or. 1t may be, fragments of
hair Of the invalid are secretly mixed
with the food to be given to the Mang,
and before the sugar water of which
he is to partake is given to him the
sick man must see his face in 1t. In
this way the evil is supposed to be
passed back to where 1t properly be-
longs and the disease removed.

he was sinking into a doze and the

she said.

what I'll do. II you'll agree not to

reins. 81 wish papa had been here"

again and added $50 to their bank
deposit before they started for home.
You're making money fast" said
the old banker kindly as Gladys hand
ed him the money.
YES" she replied; "we're just selling
our apples"
"Snyder's getting them. I suppose"
said the banker.
Indeed he is not" Gladys replied.
"We're peddling them"
The bankers face grew serious. "Of
course it's none Of my business" he
said. but I'd advise you not to OPP
pose Snyder. He is great deal more
powerful than you are. and he may
make you trouble"
Snyder was just trying to brighten
you" said Mr.. Sanders when they
told him about it that night. There
is an ordinance that peddlers must
have licenses. but farmers who peddle
things they raise themselves are not
considered as peddlers. The banker
probably does lot Of business with
Snyder and doesn't want to see any
trouble
Cant you go in with us tomorrow
asked Mabel.
Not very WELL" her father answer
ed. Il promised to help the Burtons
thrash. IF Snyder says anything
more to you. though, I'll go with you
next time and see that he gets what's
due him"
The girls had their load almost half
sold the next day when Snyder put in
his appearance.
Il thought told you this thing had
got to STOP" he snarled, jumping up
to the step on the side of the wagon
box. You're running my trade with
your cursed peddling. Are you going
TO stop itY'
Both girls shrank back ut the angry
light in his eyes. They had never
seen any one in such n passion before
The next moment they were aware
of something flying through the air

squarely i'm the back, and he rolled to
