Both man and woman hearers were

The ceremonies of worship are quite
simple. but the mysteries of the faith
may be Jess 80. The Parsees who
have been educated in England and
many Of those whose English educa-
ton has been obtained. in Bombay
resent the designation of fire worship
ers.
One of them gave me q monograph,
written by a Parsee barrister in Lon
don, which explained the creed of the
followers of Zoroaster as one Of good
thoughts. good words and good deeds,
with the sacred flame as a symbol Of
the effulgence Of the deity. 1t is not
denied, however. that contact with
Hindus and Mohammedans has caused
corruptions to creep into the creed.
The Hindus and Moslems regard the
Parsees as fire worshipers.
1t was on q New Year day that
drove out to Malabar hill, where are
located the Towers of Silence, or the
Parsee cemetery. Every traveller takes
this drive. It IL past the other ceme-
teries, Christian and Mohammedan
burial grounds and the Hindu burning
CHAT. The cemetery Of the Christians
is no. longer used, but on almost any
day there will be Mohammedan fu-
nerals and Hindu cremations.
On this day there were two Moham-
medan funerals and three parties of
Hindu mourners, with their respective
burdens at the burning CHAT.

A luxuriant vegetation covers the
rocks, and there is everything that
goes to make q beautiful garden Of

The towers Of Silence, of, which
there are five. are hardly towers at
all. They are about 275 feet in cir
cumference and perhaps 25 feet high.
The material is whitewashed stone
and cement or mortar. A near ap
proach to the towers is not allowed
to strangers to the Parsee creed, nor
is entrance permitted to the fire tenn
pie, where the sacred fire Is kept alive
and seven kinds Of incense are burned.
A model Of the towers is shown In
the registry room and an attendant ex-
plains them to visitors. The attend

BY oliver E. Remey, Secretary.

Madison, Aug. This year, for
the first time since Wisconsin took
rank with other leading states in the
matter of an annual state exposition,
Wisconsin will present truly Wis
consin fair.
Because of prevalence during early
months of the year of the foot and
mouth disease, horse, cattle, swine,
sheep and poultry classifications were
closed to all except Wisconsin exhibit
tors Not all of these classifications
come under the dreaded disease, but
1t was thought best to make a sweep
ing order and ascertain just how the
Wisconsin idea works out.
State Fair officials have received
every assurance from exhibitors con-
cerned that unusual efforts for a
strong exposition of Wisconsin re-
sources will be made.
Therefore, with the best attractions
ever presented at the Wisconsin State
Fair, with the best music and great
est number of bands ever gathered
on the fair grounds, and with a fair
proper strongly augmented in all i'm
portant departments, patrons of the
fair this year will be more than
pleased.
Every Department Is Improved.
Every department of the fair will
be improved so that it will be of great
interest to the average patron. For
instance, in the cattle, horse, swine
and sheep departments, poorly bred
stock will be shown alongside the
best bred stock, so that the fair visi-
tor will see by contrast what words
cannot convey. In the Dairy Depart
ment exhibits will be made attractive
by use of statuary effects, legends
and novel features, and an orchestra
will entertain visitors. Exhibits will
be so arranged and shown that all
who wander through the Dairy Build
ing cannot help but get a clear idea
of Wisconsin's Importance as dairy
state.
Every division of the Dairy Depart
ment will have some attractive, I'M
usual feature. AS an example of
what is meant by this statement, it
can be said that every visitor to the
Dairy Building will be given a taste
of good cheese, and will be told the
value of cheese as a food product,
and how it should be eaten.
The Department of Horticulture
will be- given more space this. year

ONLY NERVOUS

The sufferer from Neurasthenia (lack
of nerve force) frequently places him
self in the only nervous" class. Let
us see why he is nervous. That born
tired feeling becomes chronic. Every
little exertiOn of mind or body is fol-
lowed by fatigue out of all proportion
frequently has backache. All manner
of vague sensations, such as heat, cold
prickling, numbness, stiffness, soreness,
pain and pressure felt in limbs or any
part of the body. Eyes seem affected
sounds and smells may become eXag-
gerated and any slight surprise pro-
duces a real nervous shock. He has
nervous indigestion, with variable appe-
tite and constipation, or diarrh9a is COM
mon. There is palpitation of the heart
or pains around the heart annoy and
distress the poor sufferer, who becomes
from these accumulated troubles full
of anxiety and fear. These sensations
become symptoms of disease and in
time the symptoms become chronic and
if permitted to run their course, lead
the victim into maladies which break
down the nerve force so that he or she
is unfit for work or pleasure. For the
man or woman so afflicted to think there
IS nothing the matter is a serious in
justice and great injury.
Only Nervous? Diagnosis is diff
cult and that is why so many fail to
cure Inconsistencies Nervousness is
the costume and mask-the outward
appearance so imperfectly seen and
cOmprehended by the inexpert as re-
cards ctCr,fEs~o,,~a 41,t
Is beneath-the underlying cause for the
troubles overlooked. If you are "only
nervous" you must awaken to the dan
gers of neglecting the nervousness and
you must not permit yourself to drift
