BUILT IN HONOR OF BUDDHA
Hill Temple Of eoro-Budor in Java Is
.t One of the MarVeIs of the
World Today.

The hill temple of Boro-BJdor In
Java is one of the most gigantic and
finest works ever reared by the an
clients. 1t represents more human
labor and artistic skill than the great
pyramid of Egypt Said Alfred H.
Wallace, the scientist: "The human
labor and skill expended on Boro-
Budor is so great that that expended
on the great pyramid sinks into lns'g-
nihcanCe."
The temple was built about the
seventh century of our era. II stands
in Central lava, originally a Honu-
ment of Buddha. The ashes of Bud
dina. originally divided into eight parts
and buried In eight different places,
were dsinterred and re-diyded into
$4,000 parts, which were placed IN
vases and distributed all over his
dominlons.
When Buddhist missionaries went
to Java In the seventh century tdey
carried with them one Of these vases,
AS fitting receptacle for the vase.
Boro-B udor temple the finest piece OF
architecture in the then known world
and one which has never been rlyaled
since, was erected.

LINKS WITH HISTORIC PAST
Interesting TO Trace the Names OF
Streets and Lanes In City Of
Boston Today.

The names Of the streets and lanes
Of Boston are closely linked with the
historic past. Others there are which
could be connected with Boston only,
such as fremont street, a corruption
Of "Tri-mountain," by which name
Boston was known to the early set
tiers on account of the three high hills
that serve as background to the pen
Ursula. This replaced the name
"Shawnut," given TO It by the Indians.
Mary Harrod Norhend writes in the
Century Magazine that The streets Of
this quaint city in tile East we're laid
out by strayiug cattle.
After the Revolution the names Of
many Boston streets were changed.
Queen street became Court street and
King street The State street of today,
School street took It's name from a
school that was erected there. Dark
alleys leading OF Tie principal streets
on every side. we're halned after pnth-
ways. usually depending on where they
led to. Greek lane originally led to The
old creek. Ii was III tavern days that
this was the center OF stage-coach
life. The old custom house once stood
on Flag alley. Corn court took It's
name from the fact that the corn mar
ket was at one time situated there
Summer street was once know as "Sev-
en- Star Lane" i is now one Of Bos-
tons busiest streets

The Horse Of Thlrty.Flve.

Study of the relation between the to-
tai length of life and the time required
to reach maturity has brought out an
interesting comparison between men
and horses. A horse at five years old
IS said to be, comparatively, as old as a
man at twenty, and doubtless may be
expected to behave, according to
equine standards, after the manner of
the average college student following
human standards. A ten-yearold
horse resembles, so far as age and ex-
perience 90, man of forty, while a
horse that has attained the ripe age Of
thirty-hye is comparable with man Of
nnety.-New York Evening Post.
