Shanghai Black Market Thrives
Under Nose Of City's God

in his next reincarnation. A man
who lives right may be reborn into
Ia noble family, marry a beautiful
girl, grow rich, and have many
children. preferably boys.
A criminal, on the other hand,
might be reborn as a ricksha puller,
and If he had sinned in particu-
|larly vile manner he might wind up
as some four footed animal. This
would be after appropriate broiling
and pan-frying.
Myth Tells Of Error.
No one considers Zeng Wang in
fallible, of course; mythology makes
that clear. There was the time he
Ireiancarnated a good man as a pig.
He saw his error soon, and went
to great trouble to fix it, but it
wasn't easy The soul of the pig had
to be recalled and the whole thing
done over.
The pig was caused to commit
suicide by dashing its head against
"a wall, and the newly-freed soul
was placed on the wheel of destiny.
A spin of the wheel, and a rich fam
lily had a new baby boy.
However, in his haste Zeng Wang
slipped up again. He forgot to give
the soul a good snort of the drink
Iof forgetfulness,- which is neces-
sary in reincarnation to wipe out all
memory of former life.
This newly born child grew up in
that rich family, and remembered
everything that had happened to
him, including the part where he
was a pig.
Naturally he talked; his friends
heard about it and told others.

SHANGHAI, May 31.-Evil DAYS
have fallen on zeng Wang, the city
god, but local Buddhists warn that
1t will not always be thus.
Most large Chinese cities have
such deity. zeng Wang's temple is
one OF shanghai's largest.
Devout Buddhists shake their heads
at the petty racketeers who swarm
around Zeng Wang's establishment.
defiling 1t with a thieves market"
where one can buy black market
American goods, second hand cloth
ing, and such items as fountain pens
lifted from unwary pedestrians.
This commerce goes on practically
under zeng Wang's plaster nose, He
gives no sign of displeasure, but
Buddhists say that for this sort of
thing he can have you boiled in oil
or roasted over flames once you die
and get into his hands.
Day Of Reckoning Comes.
It seems Zeng Wang keeps books
on good deeds and bad for every one
in his jurisdiction, for day of reck-
oning later on.
Crowds OF Chinese flock daily TO
his temple, but not so much to burn
incense as to buy on the black mar
ket. There are only few monks
left In the temple, where. care
taker sells incense and accepts
donations from the pious.
The way these crowds act. II
would seem they had forgotten
about Zeng Wang, who can reward
a good person with a swell layout
