LONG HOLY PLACES
ShrineS That Are Held in Vener.
alton by MOSIemS.
All True Followers of Mahomet Eager
That Their Last Resting Place
Shall Be Near Those Of
Their Great Apostles,

Near to the resting place Of the
first great apostles of their faith 1t is
the dearest wish Of all piOus MOham-
medans to lie after death.
The shrines Of Najaf, Kerbela and
Kazimain, the resting places Of Ali,
Hussein, and the seventh and ninth
Imams, lie on the edge Of the desert
In the country British troops now Oc-
Cupy in MesOpotamia.
One often meets a corpse on the
road packed in long crate or bundle
of palm leaves and slung across the
back Of an ass, says Edmund Chand-
Ter, the press representative in the
MesOpotamian forces. The pilgrim be-
hind is taking his relative to swell the
population of the cities Of the dead
by which these sanctuaries are sur
rounded
OF the three shrines, Najaf is the
richest, and to some minds the most
sacred. Like Kazimain, it is ap-
preached by a horse car line. The cars
are not of the pattern Of those that
ply in European cities. l believe the
few British soldiers who have seen
them rank them with the Clock tower
in the mosque as first among the lions
of MesOpOtamia.
In peace time the dead come from
a wide radius. The donkey with the
bundle like a big carpet bag on it's
back, draped in waffle or rich silk,
according to the means of the pilgrim,
may have come all the way from Box
hara. A few years ago a corpse ar
rived from the Persian embassy at
Paris.
The rich as q rule are buried in
the shrine itself. The fee for inter-
ment in the mosque is $3.50. For
burial outside the walls of the city
the pilgrim pays anything from four
to ten rupee (twO to five dOllars), ac-
cOrding to the distance he has come.
Many pilgrims buy houses in Ma
jaf, and thus the place is gradually
becoming a city Of the dead. Nine
houses out of ten have graves in them.

Najaf has proved impregnable to
Wahhabi and BedOuin. 1t is believed
10 be fabulOusly rich. There are two
stores of treasure. The old treasury
has not been opened since the visit of
Shar Nasir-ud-Din, so years ago. 1t is
buried in a vault and built over with
brick and lime, with no door or key or
window by way of entrance. The new
treasure Is in the keeping Of the kilid-

garded as a madman's dream, and bore
the inscription, From the servant of

No doubt they were intended to
symbolic the might whereby the
Turks would defend the city against
their hated foes, the Christians.

The Sincinu Mouse.

The singing mouse is not a distinct
species. According to descriptions Of
the common house mouse. Mus mus
culus." and of the American wood
mouse. "HesperOmys IeucOpus," they
have been known to acquire the trick
or habit of warbling a few notes in
high key and with a shrill wiry tim
bre, vocalizing in a manner that might
be called singing.

EARLY American Statesman.

Alexander Hamilton, one Of our
greatest statesmen, was sometimes
called Alexander the Coppersmith,"
because of the copper cents he had
made in 1893, when he was secretary
of the treasury. These pennies were
very unpopular with the people. He
was killed in duel by Aaron Burr.

The Candle in History.

The cult of the candle plays large
role in Roman, Jewish and Eastern
ecclesiastical history; and many are
the customs that have their birth in
some magical or ritualistic use to
which the candle has been put. In
some parts of Ireland, for instance, 1t
was usual on Christmas eve to burn
large candle which no one was per-
mitted to snuff except those who bore
the name OF Mary.

Appropriate Look.

Robert had lost his little pet dog and
felt bad about it. His father. told him
poor little FidO must be dead or he
would return home. His mother sent
him on an errand, when he met wom-
an friend of his mothers who asked
him if he was i'll, as he had little to
say. ooh, no." he said, "but my little
dog is dead and l am wearing black

Cleaning Bottles.

Small brass shavings found at any
machine shop where brass is used.
After using with suds, pour water and
all into small cloth bag, sugar, salt
or tobacco bag, hang up, let dry; they
never rust, are always ready, won't
scratch, as brass is softer than glass,
yet sharp and pointed enough to clean
all corners.

Fats in the Body.

Fats in the body occur under the
skin in the muscles and around certain
organs. They act as protection for
the body against injury and serve as a
stored supply of fuel, in case food can
not be taken. Fats are liquid in the
body and are stored in albuminOus
cells.

SHORT AND SNAPPY

Some wives are so averse to
mending that they won't even
try to patch up quarrels.
The man who lives for him
self alone is apt to be neglected
by the world at large.
Yes Elizabeth, 1t rains on the
rich and poor alike If they are
