Earth Eating.

Earth eating is a habit often OBJ
served In India, and is very widely
distributed. 1t often manifests itself
as a symptom Of disease or perverted
appetite, but among many healthy
people 1t is a regular habit, In addi-
ton to India, the Soudan, China and
the Malay archipelago are mentioned
as places where the custom prevails.
but these by no means exhaust the
list. 1t is said that in Siberia and
Lapland, earth consisting of the fos-
SLICED siliceous shells Of diatoms is
mixed with meal to make kind OF
-four. 1t is also said that the Anus
OF Japan used to eat paste made OF
a mixture of diatomaceous earth. The
Indians of Guatemala eat yellowish
edible earth containing sulphur, not
SO much as a food, but as prophy-
Tactic against disease. There are peo-
pie in Bengal who regard the fine
earth OF which anthills are built as a
delicacy, and the explanation has been
suggested that the flavor is due to
a digestive fluid added to the earth
by the ants to make 1t more easily
worked.

Just outside the capital a passenger
train on the coast line to Finland was
held up by strikers and the passengers
were all driven out of the cars. The
strikers, who numbered 300 then cut
down the telegraph poles and raised
distractions on the tracks. A detach-

rived quickly on the scene and drove
off the wreckers Traffic was then
resumed, but every train was convoy
ed by locomotive with an armed es-
cort.
At Rigan the strike movement was
reported to be spreading and it was
said that 10000 men in that city had
struck work, while in many other cit
les in all parts of the empire thou
sands of men were reported to have
left their employment.
Barricades were erected by the strik-
ers on Flugoff street, but the police
charged and captured the distractions
without loss.
Similar strikes are reported from
Odessa, Reval, Buku and many Other
cities.
