This is a social system in India. The
population is divided into large num-
Der of hereditary groups which refuse
to have anything to do with members
of any other group. In some parts Of
India there are as many as two hun
dred of these groups, any member of
which would be considered tainted If
he so much as sat down at table
with member of lower caste. The
system is now being rapidly broken
down by the influence of the British.
Castles are supposed to have had their
origin In the successive conquests of
the country by peoples from the north.
With each conquest the superior caste
was supplanted by a conquering caste.
These different classes refused to In
termarry and for the most part the
individuals followed the occupations of
their fathers. The word caste" is
now loosely applied to the different
social classes in any country. The

MI Knitting Goes
Back to Year 1880

1t was in Cohoes, N. z, In 1880 that
the first knitting mill In the United
States was established, according to
research just completed by Textiles,
which shows that In that year Egbert
Egbefts and Joshua Bailey began the
manufacture of knitted underwear
with two machines.
Years of study and experimentation
were spent before machinery was In
vented that was practical for knitting,
and 1t took more years before the
public could be induced to discard its
old muslin or fred flannel" underwear
and accept the newfangled knitted gar
ments.
In tiny wooden shack the two pio-
neers set up their two primitive knit
ting machines and went to work They
had no assistants. either to operate
the machines or to sell and distribute
the finished knit goods. After spend
ing the day at their machines they
would start out with their mechandise
piled into a little handcart, peddling
from door to door. since they could
find no retail storekeeper who was
willing to take the risk of stocking up
with any knitted garments.
The building In which the two pi-
oneers established their mill has long
since been demolished to make room
for more modern structure and there
is no trace Of the actual machinery
used. 1t is interesting to note, how
ever, that from its small beginning as
the site of Americas first knitting
mill Cohoes has grown to be one of
the principal centers Of production of
knitted underwear and outerwear In
the country. More than twenty of the
leading underwear knitting companies
operate plants there, turning out thou
sands of dozens Of garments daily.

ALL OUT OF SORTS?
SO Was This Good Woman Who Tells
Her Experience

All too often women accept their
pains and aches as natural to their
sex. They fail to realize that weak
kidneys are often to blame for that
backache, those headaches, dizzy spells
and that tired, depressed feeling:
Thousands have found new health and
strength by helping the weakened
kidneys with Doan's Pills-a stimulant
diuretic. This case is one of many in
this locality.
Mrs. H. Emsen, 800 Mckinley Ave-,
Kellogg, Idaho, says: "A cold dis
ordered my kidneys and backache
played hard on my strength. When
| worked about the house, my back
ached more. My nerves were poor and

aches came on and I felt tired and

all right. My cure has lasted long
time"

Water Pumps TfseIf

An Oregon mine, well up in the
mountains, has taken advantage of its
location to pump the water out of its
galleries, though its mean depth is
about 600 feet, without any cost save
that Of installation. The water liter
ally pumps itself. The secret lies in
the fact that the mine location is such
as to make possible the construction Of
a power fiume, carrying the water off
into one of the nearby valleys and CIV
ing 1,500-foot head. Once the thing
is started, 1t runs on indefinitely, the

given In England about 1850 to a
group of painters, including Millais,

Dante Gabriel Rosetti, who rebelled
against the conventionality of routine
teaching in art, and sought to return
to the natural method, as practiced
previous to the time of Raphael (1483-
