in his boat, winds great goatskin bag
around his left arm, the hand grasp
ing it's mouth. Then he takes In his
right hand heavy stone, to which is
attached a strong line, and thus
equipped, he plunges in and quickly
reaches the bottom. Instantly open
ing the bag over the strong Jet of fresh
water, he springs up in the ascending
current, at the same time closing the
bag, and is helped aboard. The stone
is then hauled up, and the diver, after
taking breath, plunges again. The
source of these copious submarine
springs is thought to be in the green
hills of Oman, some 500 or 600 miles
distant.

eoBeY,S POCKET.

Our Bobby is a little boy Of six years old
or so;
And every kind Of rubbish In MS pocket
he will stow.
One day he thought he'd empty 1t $50 ne

And here's an alphabet of what was iouho
in Bobby's pocket.
A was rosy Apple with some bites out
here and there;
B was a bouncing rubber Ball that bound
ed in the air.
C was a crispy, crusty Cake. with citron
on the top
around and hop.
e was a little robins Egg, all speckled
blue and brown
was a fluffy Feather that was white
and soft as down.
G was a lively Grasshopper, whose legs
and wings We're green:
II was grimy Handkerchief that once
perhaps was clean.
I was plaster Image that had lost Its
plaster head;
was a jolly Jumping Jack all painted
blue and red.
K was a keen and shining Knife, 'twould
cut the toughest bark:
l. was a little wooden Lion, strayed out
of Noah's Ark.
M was Marble. large and round, with
colors bright and clear:
was a bent and rusty Nail, of little
use, l fear.
was a tiny OIL Can, which was always
upside down;
p was a Penny Bob had saved to spend
some day in town.
Q was n quilted ear tab, which had lost
its velvet mate;
was a Ring with CLASSY gem of Won
drous size and weight.
S was a String. a piece of Soap, a Stone,
Sponge, a Stick;
7 was a lump of Taffy, exceeding soft
and thick.
U, an umbrella handle OF silver-mounted
horn:
was a comic Valentine, a little creased
and worn.
W was some sticky Wax, lovely to pinch
and mould;
was an old Xpress, worn out in every
fold.
was a lot of Yellow Yarn, all punched
up like a mop;
was a jagged piece of Zinc, found in

All these are Bob's possessions; he loves

And owning all these treasures he's as
happy as a King!

Between 1880 and 1885 many por
tions of Mexico were visited by disas-
trous epidemics of smallpox and
cholera, which caused the authorities
throughout the country to enforce the
orders in regard to the discontinuance
of all burials in churches and to pro-
vide municipal burial grounds in
which to inter all bodies. These mu-
nicipal cemeteries were divided into
four parts, in three OF which the
graves we're rented and in the fourth
part burials could be made without
charge. The three parts carried indi-
vidual scales of prices, but the short
est term of rental was for space of
seven years. Graves could be rented
at a certain rate per each seven years,
or perpetual right would be sold at
any time. Consequently the Weather
people were all buried in one division,
where practically all the rights were
taken for perpetuity, while in the
cheaper divisions many Of the rights
would expire at the end OF the first
seven years. When the time expired
and no payment was made to cover
the subsequent rental, the bones were
exhumed and placed on the bone pile,
which was periodically burned. This
plan Is still continued In few of the
interior places, but since 1860 most
Of the larger municipalities have dis
continued the practice Of burning the
bones.
The arrangement Of the cemetery
Of today in Mexico follows the same
plan of division, always providing one
section in which no charge Is made
for burial. AS the greater part Of the
population Is very poor this free d.
vision forms the largest part of the
burial grounds. These different divi-
sions are separated by high walls, as
is the entire cemetery separated from
the surrounding grounds. The en-
trance is arranged In the first or high.
est-priced division from which gate.
ways lead to the poorer divisions.
The first division Is generally made
into place of great beauty, for In
addition to the decorations on the In.
diivdual graves, the municipal author.
tiles expend much time and money on
the upkeep Of the entire division.
The prices charged for lots vary
with the town or city. In the larger
cities there are often many divisions
made of the first-class lots according
to the desirability Of their location
In this way the very wealthy may
gain an exclusiveness which is often
not possible in the smaller places. In
some instances in Mexico City lots
have sold for as high as $4,000, yet
the average flrst-class lot can be rent
ed for a period of seven years for SIG
or a perpetual right can be obtained
for $3.50. In the second and third di
vision, this price is greatly reduced.
Practically all of the graves taken
in the first division are for perpetuity
while in the second and third, the re
verse is the case. When the sever
years have expired on the rented
graves and no renewal has beer

Trial by Jury.

Whence comes the system OF trial
by Jury? In the opinion Of Bourguig-
non a French jurist. ats origin loses
itself In the night OF time" Black
stone speaks Of 1t as "a trial that hath
been used time out of mind" Reeves
thinks It was introduced into England
by the Normans, who themselves OBJ.
tained It from northern Europe. 1t is
certain that the Scandinavians had an
established jury system more than a
thousand years ago. The Normans on
their arrival in England found prevail.

which enforced the carrying OF
pound Of heated metal by the accused
for a great distance, and the ordeal
of hot water, in which by way Of
variation a stone had to be withdrawn
from a pitcher of boiling water. No
attempt at reform in this direction
was made by William the Conqueror.

The Cucumber In the Bottle.

marked an old gentleman, somebody
gave me a cucumber in a bottle. The
neck Of the bottle was small, and the
cucumber so large that it wasn't pos

l was greatly puzzled to know how IT
got there. But Que in the garden one
day came upon bottle slipped over
a little green fellow that was still on
the vine, and then understood it all.
The cucumber had grown in the bot
tie. often see men with habits that

ANYBODY "Stunq2n

Marion, O., sends along a peculiar
story, but because of its previous good
conduct, perhaps, 1t will pass. A
sealed can of tobacco was shipped to
one of Marion's big citizens, who, up
on opening 1t, while loosening up the
tobacco, found a live and thriving
honey bee snugly nesting in its
leaves. Fully alive to its release,
however, the bee was quick to fly away
into the bright sunshine, and now
Marion's man of standing is wonder

the can or was by accident imprisoned

A Lie Is Forever,

The far-reaching possibilities and
consequences of a lie, are beautifully
illustrated in the following story:
A little girl whom we know came
in her night clothes very early to her
mother one morning. saying: which
is worse, to tell lie or steal?"
The mother, taken by surprise, re-
piled that both were so bad she
couldn't tell which was the worse
well" said the little one, 1--WE
been thinking good deal about it,
and I've concluded it's worse to lie
than to steal. If you steal a thing,
you can take 1t back, unless you've
eaten 1t; and If you've eaten it, you
can pay for 1t. But-and there was
look of awe in the little face-"a
lie is forever"

differ radically from the Gus
toms observed In English-speaking
countries.
Practically all Of the aborlgines OF
the country were converted to Cathol-
icism during the early years OF the
conquest Previous to 1925, all dead
were buried in the churches, for to be
buried in consecrated ground was
universal desire. The floors and walls
of the churches necessarily soon be-
came honeycombed with excavations
and inches in which the dead had
been placed.
A charge, varying from few dol
lars to thousands, according to the SIT
uation in the church, was collected for
the right OF burial. Proximity to the
altar was most desired and the wri-
tings left by the priests tell OF fabu-
lous sums paid for certain sections In
the more famous churches The poor
er classes were buried in the more dis
tant parts of the churches, generally
in a catacomb, which provided sew
eral hundred inches on each side OF
long passageway or tunnel. Certain
catacombs were set aside for paupers,
but for the most part graves were
rented for certain period OF time
or for perpetuity. 1t was general
practice to pay for a term Of five or
ten years, and on the expiration Of
this time, when no further rental was
forthcoming, the bones were moved to
the charity catacomb, where they
were left with the hundreds Of uni
Identified. The grave was then re-
sold.
This custom was practiced for 200
years, and only those familiar with
the great number of churches exist
ing in Mexico can imagine how the
dead were buried In the limited
ground inclosed within the walls of
the churches. 1t can be said truth
fully that every church in Mexico
marks the burial place of thousands.
Absolute necessity caused the clos
Ing of all graves with cement, but
through carelessness this was not al
ways done properly, and early In the
last century many of the epidemics
which were then scourging the coun
try were traced directly to the custom
of burial in the churches The mat
ter was called to the attention OF the
authorities by the physicians OF the
time, and ultimately orders were Is
sued throughout the republic prohib
iting further burials In the churches
For many years the order could be en-
forced only partially, owing to politi
cal difficulties within the country and
the refusal of the priests to comply
with the order, as well assthe genera
desire among the residents to follow
the old custom of being buried In hal
lowed ground. According to theil
ideas this hallowed ground could ex
list only within the space inclosed BY
the walls OF the church.
