ODD CRAZE FOR SOUVENIRS
ohrysanthsmums Abstraotsd BY wsn,-
en- From Church Following Wed
ding In New York.

Beyond any contest, the Pickwick
club has left many descendants In the
persons Of ladies and gentlemen who
seek and whenever they are able Gull
here and there small objects of inter
est. Savants tell NJ that we all have
prehensile, acquisitive instinct. 30
we are not surprised at the gathering
Of these objects. What Is surprising
is that some Of them should interest
anyone who held himself or herself
above q jackdaw, but souvenirs have
wonderful fascination for great
many people, and they do not seem
always to be over nice as to the means
Of getting them.
From soldiers buttons to pictures In
galleries, from commemoration plates
to chips from a monument, all seems
to be grist to these mills, and the lat
est edlfying instance Of this was at
wedding in New York. On this oc-
casion the female souvenir hunters ap-
psared in strong force and were active
as usual, though 1t does not appear
that they injured the bride or the
Bridegroom. The wedding, says the dis
patch. naturally attracted large
crowd, but the police kept the curl
GUS well in hand. After the
ceremony several young women man
aged to get into the church and took
some of the chrysanthemums as SOU
venirs."
Bless their hearts, Of course they
did, and no fair-minded man can re-
frain from respecting them for not
taking the pews. You will note, too,
that they did not snatch the brides
bouquet out of her hands and that
no male souvenir hunter walked off
with the bridegroom's top hat. Such
moderation must be commended. But
what did the young women see In the
chrysanthemums that was Of interest?
There was, of course, a little value in
them, although there could not have
been much left after being in the close
church.
Did they think that one of these
flowers put under the pillow would
bring a millionaire husband to the
is riddle, like most Of the perform
ances Of the souvenir hunter, and to
our thinking wonderfully silly. Com
pared to this the hero worship Of the
gentleman who had shaken the hand
that had shaken the hand Of Sullivan
was a reasonable and creditable SEN
timent. Besides, by the time that
chrysanthsmums have an odor 1t Is a
very unpleasant one-Boston Tran
script.

Hindu eamhlsrs, Day.

Gambling Is permitted and coun-
tenanced for one day in the year in
India. and that is the day Of Devali-
the Day Of Light, which is dedicated to
the Hindu god Ram. in celebration of
his coronation, and Of this day the
devotees Of that religion take great
advantage. Huge sums are wagered
on games of chance. and on frequent
occasions the born gambler has lost
one Of his wives.
The native bazaars throughout In
dia resemble fairyland. for outside the
house or shop of every true Hindu are
placed numerous little lamps of primi-
tive construction. They consist mere
ly of small shallow bowls, about the
size of saltcellar, filled with oil in
which wick is floated. The number
of lamps varies with the financial
standing of the householder, the
wealthier natives displaying them by
the hundred. According to the tradi-
tion. he who displays the greatest num-
Der of lights will become exceedingly
rich. for on this night Lakshami, the
goddess Of wealth, ls supposed to wan
der abroad, and enter wherever there
are sufficient lights to catch her fancy.

were far away, out crept Mr.. Dog
from under the steps and peeked
around. Then he half crawled and
half walked through the barnyard and
crept under the fence.
There was an old barrel lying be-
side the fence and into this Mr.. Dog
crawled and waited for Mr.. Fox to
call.
He did not have long to wait. Pretty
soon Mr.. Fox came trotting along and
when he reached the place where he
knew Mr.. Dogs house was on the
other side of the fence, he jumped up
and leaned on his front paws.
"Howdy, Neighbor Dog, howdy." he
said. You ought to be outside your
house this beautiful daytime day for
the race-human, race, you know, ha,
ha, ~ Mr.. Fox started to laugh at
his own joke, but 1t was cut short, so
short he almost choked.
Mr.. Dog had waited until Mr.. Fox
thinking he was inside the dog house
that he was not listening for sounds.
And then he came from his hiding
place and sprang on Mr.. Fox's back.
Over tumbled Mr.. Fox with Mr..
Dog clinging to him. They rolled and
tumbled, but Mr.. Fox managed to
break away and how he ran!
There was nothing to do but to
take refuge in his own house, thing
Mr.. Fox never did unless driven to 1t,
and this was one OF the times he was.
In he went and Mr.. Dog nipped one
hind foot as he disappeared inside his
doorway. II have come to call, Mr..
Fox" said Mr. Dog. "You see 1 know
where you live and ! shall be very
nelghborly after this, can assure
YOU And all the time he was making
the earth fly trying to make the door
way large enough for him to enter.
Mr.. Fox had more than one door
way or Mr.. Dog would have found him
at home when at last he got inside,
but Mr.. Fox was some distance away
when Mr.. Dog got the doorway large
enough to get through.
When his master found him he was
still digging for Mr.. Fox, and because
he had worked so hard Mr.. Man only
patted his head when at last he called
him out. HE got away, old fellow"
he said "but you have scared him SO
he will do no more calling around our
barnyard, we may be certain Of that"
II think 1 had better change my
visiting list" unused Mr.. Fox as he
rested under some bushes. "Neigh.
Dor Dog may get bothersome and call
too often now he has found where
live, so I'll cross his name off and
make my calls on the other side Of
the hill"

MIR. FOX AND MIR. DOG

MIR. FOH named him Neighbor be-
AsA cause Mr.. Dog lived at the farm
house nearest to Mr.. Fox's home. But
Mr.. Fox did all the calling. He didn't
mind bit making all the visits, he
used to tell Neighbor Dog from the
other side of the barnyard fence
"and. OF course, you can't call on me,
Neighbor," he would say. because
you do not know where live. Ha,
ha, hal"
This would make Neighbor Dog very
angry, of course, and he would tell
Mr.. Fox that If ever he caught him he
would show him how sharp his teeth
were.
Barking dogs never bite, I have
heard 1t said" Mr.. Fox would reply.
You bark great deal, Neighbor."
"If only master would let me go
unclaimed during the day when he is
away" Mr.. Dog would sigh, II would
catch that saucy fellow and save the
poultry"
Mr.. Dog knew well enough why he
was chained. He ran away when
there was no one at home, so the
poultry would suffer anyway, was the
way the farmer looked at it.
Mr.. Fox always seemed to know
when Mr.. Dog was chained and the

Superstitions
TAKING BABY INTO SUNLIGHT
By II. 1RplN9 KING

TN MANY sections of this country and
I in many regions Of the Old World IL
is believed that baby should be first
taken into the sunlight on Sunday;
that when it is old enough to be put
into long clothes the shift should be
made on Sunday, and that all impor-
tant changes with regard to the child
should be made on Sunday If good luck
and good health are to be its inheri-
tanoe. This Is such an obvious sur
vival Of the custom, prehistoric In
point Of age. Of dedicating the child
to the sun god that it needs little
comment, though those who most Arm
ly believe in the superstition would be
Mortified to be told that they were In
practicing it perpetuating an ancient
heathen custom-worshipin at the
shrine Of Osiris, or Of some other Of
the personifications of the sun as
deity.
The designation of the first day Of
the week as the suns day" far ante
dates Christianity and prevails in
lands never ChristIanized, where 1t has
existed from remote antiquity. By
some an astronomical reason is con-
sidered to be the cause of the dedica-
ton Of the first day Of the week to
the sun. But whatever the origin Of
the nomenclature Sunday" 1t II the
day which, from time immemorial, has
been especially set apart for dedica-
tion to the sun-god. Therefore the
baby Of the Twentieth century A. D.,
liz, the baby of the Twentieth osu-
tury B. O., is first taken into the sun
light on Sunday.

By the Associated press

bS the ASSOclated PreSs.
CAIRO, Egypt. December 29-The
Wafd. or executive committee of the
Egyptian Nationalist Organization, has
issued manifesto 10 the nation
signed by Former Premier Zagioul
Pasha. denouncing the government of
Premier Ziwar for alleged unconsti-
tutional acts in defiance of public
opinion.
The manifesto asserts that the dis
solution of parliament was needless,
because parliament was in possession
OF public confidence. 1t accuses the
government Of arresting innocent
persons, including deputies, in disre-
gard of their parliamentary immunity,
and warns the nation that Ziwar's
ministry is trying to elect deputies
not representative of the real opinion
Of the country. Therefore, an appeal
is made to the Mudirs, or provincial
governors, and other officials to be
impartial during the elections.
Egyptians" says the manifesto,
you must teach the ministry that,
despite all it's efforts, it Will not at
tain It's ends. and that you are aware
of the danger OF electing deputies who
do not represent the program of the
ZaglouliSt government, which obtain
ed your unanimous approval"
