oueerest Dance in the World.

The Godavari dance of the malay
ers, or drummers, of Malabar is very
popular function when the native
farmers are taking their ease after the
hard work of harvest. The principal
character is weird figure supposed
to represent the sacred COW OF the
gods, Kamachenu. A small boy car
ries this about while the other per-
formers, decked out in primitive fash
ion with painted bodies and hideous
masks, go through a weird dance, ac-
companied by much drum beating and
singing. Wherever it goes the COW
is supposed to shower blessings and
prosperity, and so, ostensibly to please
the animal, but in reality to satisfy
the dancers, presents of money, paddy
or rice are given to the performers.
This custom has been in existence
from time immemorial and is likely
to continue as long as agriculture en-
dures among the Hindus of Malabar.-

her journey, the climb across the
young corn rows. 1t was field stood

across the green spears, and her voice
was raised to shout: Hello Samsonl"
The young man looked up and waved
languid greeting. He did not remove
his hat or descend from his place of
rest, and Sally who expected no such
attention, came smilingly on. Samson
was her hero. Slow of utterance and
diffident with the stranger, words now
came fast and fiuently as she told her
story of the man who lay hurt at the
foot of the rock.
"Hit hain't long now tell shutdown"

the heavy lock upward from his fore

the young mans doubt grew graver.

and splashed her feet in the shallow

The groan was groan of human

came.
Certain sounds are battling as to d.

readily betray its source. Finally she
stood up and listened once more in

Then she turned and disappeared in
the deep cleft between the gigantic

narrow alley Uttered with ragged
stones, lay the crumpled body Of a

head trickled thin stream of blood.
Also, 1t was the body of such a man

Although from the man came a low

stepped surely from foothold to foot

she shifted the doubled body into a

She had found the left arm limp

already blackening, and cash still
trickled blood.
She lifted her skirt and tore long
strip of cotton from her single petit

way swiftly to the creek bed, where
she drenched the cloth for bathing and
bandaging the wound. When she had
done what she could by way of first
