MUMMY TRAINS OF BAGDAD.
Bearing the Dried and Sailed Dead to
Sacred Sol! For Burial.

Bearing the Dried and Sailed Dead to
Sacred Sol! For Burial.
Finding myself not long ago at Bag
dad (old home Of Sindbad the Sailor),
decided to see for myself just what
Eden looks like today, notes a writer
in the Christian Herald, and to get ac-
quainted with the people who now in
Adam and Eve. I wanted to see Baby
Ion, too, and the excavated palace
OF King Northumberland the
handwriting appeared on the wall-and
wanted to get picture Of the tower
OF Babel. which still lifts its battered
head above the fat. empty plain of
Mesopotamia.
So l crossed the odd pontoon bridge
that spans the yellow Tigris at Bag
dad, slipped through the massive west
gate. passed the supposed tomb of To-
bedia and mingled with the pilgrim
horde on the great Shia caravan trail
that stretches down from Turkestan
and Persia, crosses Chaldea and en-
tiers the golden domed mosques at Ker-
bella and Nedjef Millions have pass
ed this way in tue centuries, bringing
with them the sailed and dried bodies
of their dead for burial in the sacred
soil outsidn the walls of their holy
Shia cities. Two hundred thousand
mummifed human bodies have passed
through Bagdad in a single year, borne
by these Shia devotees:
For miles along this strange highway
our "arabanah." drawn by four gal
Looping mules, passed these weird death
caravans, silent and mysterious The
bodies Of departed relatives were car
ried in oblong bundles. dashed to the
backs of pack animals. Yelled women
rode in queer, cagelike boxes, slung
one on each side Of mule or camel.
The men, clad in the round, hard caps
and padded clothes peculiar to Per-
slams, marched behind, prodding any
tagging donkey or camel.

The Heaviest American Brain,

DR.. Edward 4. SpiEka, the brain
specialist, credits the late Edward 81.
Knight with having the heaviest Amer
lean brain on record. Mr.. Knight was
well known in Washington and was a
patent attorney of note. At the time
Of his death his brain weighed 1874
grams. General Benjamin F. Butler
had brain which weighed 1,75S
grams, the next heaviest recorded, &C.
cording to Dr. Spitzka. The heaviest
brain on record anywhere in the world
is given as that Of the Russian poet
and novelist, Turgenev, which tipped
the scales at 2,012 grams.

VGOR AT SEVENTY.
Great Works Performed by Men Even
Beyond That Ripe Age.

Beyond That Ripe Age.
Who talks of fifty years as the Gull
minating point in mans career? Were
all the great work performed by men
even beyond seventy erased from his
tory the human race would be bereft
of some very proud achievements.
Jefferson founded a university by his
own activity after he had passed three
score years and ten. John Quincy Ad-
ans, although he had been president
Of the United States and five times a
foreign minister, wrought as a con-
gresham by far his greatest deeds
after he was sixty-fve His robust
father sat in constitutional conven-
ton when he was almost a nonage-
marian. Franklin did valiant service
in helping to frame the constitution
Of the United States after he had turn
ed a serene and contented eighty.
Seventy saw Gladstone so vigorous
that he was still good for the greatest
battle of his political life and a pre-
miership.
Germany's first emperor, the veneer
able William, saw Waterloo as a SOL
der, but fifty-fve years later was d.
recting armies at Sedan and welding
an empire after the fall Of Paris.
John Bigelow at fourscore was mental
ly as virile as a boy, and his powers
as an author were not dimmed
Frederick Fraley was an active bust
ness man, president of bank and the
national board of trade since the Span
lsh-American war, and yet he was
prominent enough in 1874 to serve on
a committee that welcomed to Phila-
delphia Daniel Webster
Science is making lives longer than
they were in the days Of our grand
fathers and also far more comfortable
The same agency that prolongs bodily
vigor will surely lengthen the age Of
mans most virile mental labor.-Phila-

Sand Cure For FATIGUE.

One Of the most etficacious cures for

walking barefoot in sand. The nerves
Of the sole and heel are slightly irri-

grains and accelerate the circulation
of the blood in all parts Of the body
The effect produced is highly invigor-

Katie; I advise YOU TO use this formu-
la for a hair tonic, because to my per-
sonal knowledge il does more for the
hair and scalp than anything else and
is easy to make: Into one-half pint al
cohol pour one ounce quinSoin and add
one-half pint water. This quinZoin tonic
quickly stops the itching and cures the
dandruff and is soothing to a sore or
tender scalp. The regular use OF this in
expensive tonic corrects dry, scaly con
ditions or excessive oiliness, because II
makes the scalp and hair sacs healthy:
and to dull. brittle. faded hair will give
store the former color For best results
it is we'll to shampoo with canthrox.
