CASTE A BARRIER in INDIA
.snobbery sifted Into FanatIcal Relle
lous Faith Pale Description Of
Social Conditions.


First Of all caste is a question OF
birth. and there is no entry except by
birth. A worker in a coal mine may
become a part owner thereof. and his
daughter marry a peer. and his grand
son become a peer OF England. No
millions will enable the low caste Hin
du to marry into a Brahman family or
even to touch the hand. or throw his
shadow on the food of Brahman In
India
If a man is communicated by his
caste fellows in India, no one Of the
caste will eat with him. accept water
from his hands or marry him. His
own wife will not touch him or speak
with him. He is dead to his family

or cut his hair. or his toe nails.
A Brahman clerk has been known
to distribute legal documents by
throwing them down at the end Of
the village street In which live his
low caste brethren. Letter carriers
have been known to refuse to enter
the houses of. or to Kermit themselves
to come into personal contact with
those OF lower status than them.

If one could picture to oneself so
cial snobbery lifted into a fanatical
religious faith, it would be a pale de-
scription OF the iron subdivisions OF
caste IN India. There is no patriotism.

swer the same purpose.
There are some rag rugs which are
not woven, that are washable, but not
as attractive as the Colonial rugs.
They are made of rags plated into
long strips and then sewed together.
Some very rich looking rugs are made
of short bits of rags drawn through
a burlap foundation and tied. These
follow design stamped on the bur
lap and are clipped off evenly when
the rug is finished The effect is
very rich and handsome, but such
rugs are not desirable for entire floor
coverings, and will successfully not
stand washing. They are fine for the
introduction of bright bits of color in
den or living room. With wear
they get to look considerably like
Oriental rugs when made OF wool rags
in rich colors.

RASH ALL OVER BABY'S BODY

"On July 81, 1909, we left Boston for
a trip to England and Ireland, taking

a few days nasty rash came out all
over his body. We took him to doc
tor who gave us medicine for him.
my trouble started with pimple on

head and face, at different times. It
irritated, and he would scratch it with
all his might. The consequence was
it developed into sores, and we were
afraid it would leave nasty scars on
his face.
when we reached England we took
baby to another doctor, who said his
condition was due to change of food
and climate, and gave more medicine.
The rash got no better, and it used to
itch and burn at night so bad that the
child could not sleep. He was COM
pletely covered with 1t at different
times. 1t was at this time that my
mother advised us to try Cuticura
Soap and Ointment. After using Cuti-
cura Soap and Cuticura Ointment for
about nine months the places disap-
peared. There are not any scars, or
other kind of Disagreement, and baby
is completely cured by the Curicura

NEWEST in SETS OF FURs
Extensive Variety Will Be Feature
in Styles for the Coming
Season.

Among the expensive numbers, the
empire scarf and pillow muff occupy
a prominent position. The straight,
broad design, with edging band of
contrasting fur, is one of the styles
seen last season and launched again
for fall The newer scarfs show the
straight outer edge and curved out
line where the scarf joins in front.
This tapering line extends to the bot
tom and gives the cutaway effect,
seen in many of the new coats.
The practical styles show the anil
NAL designs, scarf effects, collars and
fancy neckpieces finished with tails
and trimming bands. Raccoon prom
ises to be much worn and foxes of
all varieties are being rapidly taken

fur tipped with black. with black and
white tail trimmings. Fisher is being
shown to large extent in expensive
merchandise, and caracul with fox or

matter what quality or color, better
