An amusing anecdote OF the 4rst

Adams Gibbons In his new book.

Chinese government studying in Paris,
mostly the sons of mandarins, accord
ing to Mr.. Gibbons, finding themselves
suddenly destitute Of funds, applied to-
their ambassador and their consulate

Finally as last resort so hungry
students literally forced their way
into the embassy, devoured the appe-

served in expectation of his excel
lency and ended by raiding the pantry.
While they were thus occupied the
ambassador returned, but being told
by the concierge what was happening
inside he decided that prudence was
the better part OF valor. Accordingly
he retired to nearby restaurant and
telephoned to the police.
There is nothing a Partisan enjoys

Mr.. Gibbons, than a good Joke. He

their task very strenuously, adding,
however, that in the end it took more

Those youthful days of trouble,

Castor oil is made from the castor

somewhere in the purlieus of Bombay.

the board of supervisors OF their in

The firm stated that the three prin-

FEAR TABOO" IS CONTAGIOUS
30 Eddystone Islanders Ascribe Their
Ills to the Charm-How "Cure"
Is Made.

Many interesting facts with regard
to the practice of leechcraft and sor-
Gerry, the imposition and removal of
taboo, and the belief in the infection
and cure Of disease by rites among
the natives of Melanesia were related
recently by Dr. w. H. R. Rivers In the
second Fitzpatrick lecture on "Medi-
cine, Magic and Religion at the Royal
College OF Physicians, says the Lon
don Times.
In Eddystone islands, where Doctor
Rivers spent several months some
years ago, nearly every disease is
ascribed to the infraction OF a taboo
on the fruit OF certain trees, espe-
cially the cocoanut and betel vine, the
taboo Is well As the sign by which
1t Is known being called KENO.
When anyone suffers from epilepsy
or other convulsive seixure which 10
recognized as kirengge he and his
friends consult one known to have
the power OF imposing the KENO kir-
engge. This man visits the patient
and strokes him from the head
downwards with four leaves called
myou, some moss, SCOT, and scrap
ings of wood, uttering the formula:
Stroke away. Stroke down and
away. Cease thou. Let the man
live; do not return. They have given
me q good ring" Tho last clause Of
this formula and two in that used In
removing the taboo refer to the fec,
