Maori Race Is R Pass
Most Superb of Primitive

Maori Race Is Rapidly Passing Into Oblivion
Look to End With Stocism.
The Maori chiefs themselves understand this to be a fact, and they look forward to the end of a great face with grim stocism. They charge their fate to the coming of the European, and draw a comparison between the Maori and the Maori rat that was destroyed by them that same over in the white marsh. Similarly they expect to have their national life, in fact their physical life, finally crushed out of them by the conditions that arose when white men assumed control of their land.
It is the ways of civilization that have been the downfall of the unfortunate aborigines. Left to their own devices, living their own lives in their own manner they would have gone steadily onward, thriving and

When the savages first saw guns, and saw warriors drop without apparent cause when the flash of flame was sent from the weapons of the invader, they got a new idea. If they had guns they, too, could become great warriors. Not only could they repet the invader, but they could also become conquerors, and take to themselves for their own land of other peoples.

Greatest of Native Fighters.
The leader in this idea was the native chief, Hongi, the greatest of the Maori fighters. He would be king if he could only get the firearms.
The English sought to placate Hongi, Recognizing his great influence with the Maori, took him to England, taught him the ways of agriculture and sent him home with money, enough to buy farm implements to make his people farmers. But Hongi thought only of warfare of conquest. The fighting spirit of a savage people cried out within him, and he had learned just enough of modern ideas by his residence among white men to seek to have at his disposal all the most modern agencies for killing. He sold the farming implements and he brought firearms to his people instead.
These formed the basis of an aranea, for ten years he succeeded in keeping the state in a condition of bloodiest turmoil. Those who supported him were brave, but they were misguided. They followed him blindly, and it is estimated that in the internecine wars which followed while Hongi was striving to put himself in position of being ruler of the country, not less than one-fourth of the Maori population perished.
Wrecked by Vices of Whites.
Owing to the numbers killed in battle, the women far outnumbered the surviving male residents of the country when peace was finally restored, the poor creatures, utterly demoralized, were so enfeebled in health and stamina that they descendants to this day are paying the price in wrecked constitutions and enfeebled minds.
The death rate now goes bounding ahead of the birth rate, and nothing can be done to alter the condition, for the whole tone and power of the race has been lowered to the point where recovery is a virtually impossibility. Twice have the Maoris bravely battled with the British in the hope of

wipping the invader off their national map. The first of these wars which began in 1860, and lasted for ten years cost the British crown $60,000.00. It was marked by greatest heroism on part of the natives, and many a gallant soldier in the service of the queen suffered a loss of reputation on the hands of the native fighters. All the Maoris were drawn from their homes in attempt to drive the invader out of the land and into the sea, and non-combatants were overtaxed in their efforts to carry food and supplies to the fighters. The tribes paid a terrible price in lives for this conflict, perishing by the tens of thousands. But it was not alone the sacrifice of life in warfare that brought down the Maori from his estate.
**Strong Drink Has Share.**
Strong drink also had its share. It is said that at first the natives did not take kindly to liquor, and had to be beaten up by uses. But once the thirst developed they became a passion far stronger than other in their lives. Every festive occasion and even funerals were made the subject of the wildest revels in which there was absolutely no check on license.
For a long time the craze for liquor hold the natives in bondage, then England took steps to deal with it. Liquor was forbidden to the natives and heavy penalties imposed for selling it to them, with the result that the craze gradually subsided, and today there is a comparatively little indulgence, a drunken Maorl being seen only rarely.
"Father," said the minister's little daughter, "the paper says you 'officiated at the wedding clay in the traditional garb of the clergy.' What does 'traditional' mean?"
"Traditional," my dear, answered the man he looked at his cheap suit of black and a sigh, "refers to something that has been handed down."
One poor turn deserves another—from the organ grinder's viewpoint.
THE APPEAL.
But the effect of the evil was not to be undone with its stopping and, though there is little drinking now, the children born of the parents of that day show the ill effects. Neither could the Maori adapt himself to the European ways of living. When they lived in the open they had health. Now since they have adopted the white man's style of clothes, and have modeled their little houses on the kind he uses, more of the hardi-

Punished Asile by Whities.
White man's enterprise and activity has taken from them any of the men's needs need livelihood. The great fisheries used to make the people work on the farms, and the fisheries supplied a never ending source of wealth. But the white man has monopolized these means of existence, and the Maori loses the wealth he might have made and also the blessings of health that come as the reward of toil.
His crops are put in too late, and he consistently neglects them, with the result that the whole people lead a hand-to-mouth existence, and there is a constant shortage of supplies. This leads to conditions of absolute poverty. The white man's diseases unknown to the country before he came have now made their advent, and are reaping a big harvest of death among the unfortunate natives.
In fact, it is becoming rare to see a Maori who is past middle age.
Children are dying by the wholesale, and young men and young women apparently robust are cut down suddenly and terribly by fever and quick consumption.
Maori Are Fatalists.
British authorities have recognized the collection, and have done all that was possible, as a remedy. If the Maori themselves are sufficiently constituted, it might be possible to do something, but they are fatalists, and they view the whole situation with resigned indifference.
They live in the past. Their few surviving poets tell of what was when all the country for hundreds of miles around dreaded the prowess of the mighty Maori, but his day is passed, and to bring him back again is wasted effort.
In only a few years, photographs and books alone will tell to the world the story of what a race once ruled New Zealand.

"We are," replied the case of ague, "sitheough we have never met before."

WOMEN'S NOBLE WORK AMID HORRORS OF WAR
European Nations Show Gratitude by the Conferring of Many Orders.
Queen Victoria Who Installed Two Orders for Women.
Monarchical Europe, though denying in most countries the right of women to bear a share in the cares of government, is nevertheless liberal in the matter of giving rewards to those who render service to the country.
A host of orders which women may win and wear are in existence.
King Edward recently conferred the decoration of the Royal Red Cross on Queen Bona of Italy. This is only one of the orders with which the sovereign of Britain might have honored the wife of the king of Italy had he so desired.
Many of these orders which are now worn proudly by the royal women of Europe go back centuries for their origin.
The Order of the Axe is now close to nine hundred years old, having been established in the twelfth century by the last duke of Barcelona, Ramon Berengeur. It was the devoted courage of the daughters of Spain who went out on the field of battle and assisted in repelling the Moors, who at that time were in the midst of one of their many efforts to conquer the country, and make it a vassal that gave rise.
Catherine of Russia, one of the heroic figures of history, was responsible for the creating of the Order of Liberty.
Peter, leading the Russians against the Turks, fond his fortunes in most unpromising condition. The army had been decimated by the other battles fought under the great leader, despair had seized upon them, and Peter freely admitted that but for the presence of the iron-nerved Catherine, who went among the men, stirred their courage, dressed their wounds, and exhausted all of her great powers in rallying them to renewed courage, he would surely have been defeated.
So honest was he in giving credit to his wife that when the war was over he instituted the order.
It was the design of Peter that no one else but he be wife should ever wear its insignia. She was the sole member, and during his time no one else received the decoration.
But after the death of Peter, Paul I, somewhat modified his character so that it could be conferred on the her nobility connected with the

royal household. Each person getting the coveted decoration had impressed the obligation it carried of bringing the younger members of the royal family up in such a way as to do credit to the principles for which the order stood.
Out of compliment to Catherine, and perhaps in order to ease his conscience for having admitted others to an order designed for her exclusively, he renamed it the Order of Catherine.
But this is not the most highly prized order for women. Germany

boasts that. It is known as Order of Louisa. This order was founded in 1815 by Frederick William III., and commemorates the heroeship of the daughters of the Fatherland during the Napoleonic wars. In the series of battles that terminated in the defeat of the emperor at

Waterloo, the women of Prussia most nobly supported their husbands, fathers, sons and brothers in the field. They sold their rings and jewelry in order to be near the scene of the battles and thus be able to give their ally in caring for the wounded. But the country were proud to get the Order of Louisa, but it was by means of them, for the purpose of the king had been

to make it absolutely a reward of mer it, and many an humble woman received the order for services she had done her country in its hour of crisis
Germany also boasts another order of a similar kind, the Service Cross for Women and Girls. This was the outcropping of the war with France, when the daughters of the land of the kaiser once more wrought mightily for the good of those who were bearing arms at the front.
The institution has many orders, but the substitution of a republican for a monarchical form of government has had the effect of gradually removing them all excepting the Legion of Honor, which continues to be a decoration most eagerly sought by all Frenchmen.
The Legion of Honor was established by Napoleon in 1802, and was at first known as the Order of the Eagle. Like many others, it underwent a change, and finally came to be known by its present name.
The first woman to receive the Legion was Marie Jean Schelink. in 1792 she enlisted in the Second Belgian battalion, went through several campaigns, in the course of which she was wounded more than once. After the battle of Austerlitz she was made a lieutenant colonel, and was decorated with the order by Napoleon himself.
King John of Saxony founded in 1870 an order with a notably high appeal. It is the reward of work in the cause of humanity, and is known as the Order of Sidonla.
THE APPEAL STEADILY GAINS
BECAUSE:
4-It is the organ of ALL Afro-Americans.
5-It is not controlled by any ring or olique.
6-It asks no support but the people's.
The Cross of Mary was founded to encourage service among the sick and wounded in time of war. The decoration was originally limited to members of the Catholic faith, but these barriers have now been removed.
Founded by Victoria.
Great Britain has four important orders that are within reach of women. In 1977, when Queen Victoria assumed the throne, she founded the Imperial Order of the Crown of India, which may be conferred upon princesses of the royal house and wives and female relatives of Indian princes and holders of high office in India; such as the vicarry, commander-in-chief, etc.
King Edward founded the Order of Merit. This is actually intended for men, but the ice was broken when it was conferred on Miss Florence Nightingale, and it has usually been the ex

perience that when precedent is broken and one woman gets a decoration, others will follow. The Royal Family Order of Victoria and Albert came into existence in the earlier stages of the married life of the loved queen, and the Royal Red Cross, which King Edward has just conferred on the queen of Italy, came into existence as a reward for those who were wounded and suffering on battlefields. Elector Maximilian III, in 1838, founded the Ladies' Order of the Society of St. Anne at Munich, and it has survived to the present day. At first it had ten women who could prove sixteen generations of nobility; now there are three classes with twenty-five members in the first, forty-two in the second and a third class to which the daughters of military officers are eligible. The Ladies of Noble Blood. The Queen of the emperor was strongly into the founding of the Order of the Starry Cross. After a great fire in the palace of the Empress Eleanor of Austria, it was found that all that survived was a little crucifix to contain relics of the true cross. This had been worn by the Emperor Maximilian and had protected him in his campaigns. Out of gratitude that it survived the empress established the order for women. Pope Clement took a deep interest in the new order and entrusted its management to the prince bishop of Wien. This order is very difficult to enter, for it is open only to ladies of noble royal blood who have done notable work for the relief of the suffering and poor in the hospitals.
Only women of the royal house and thirty women of noble lineage are eligible to membership in the order of Maria Louis of Spain which is hence credited with being one of the most exclusive orders in the world. The Order of Isabella of Portugal is conferred on those who minister to the wants of the poor. The Far East also boasts its decorations. Nishani Shefakat was organized to commemorate the work of distinguished English women during the war. Abdul Hamid founded the order in 1878 as a mark of gratitude, and once conferred it upon Lady Burdiet-Counts' and Lady Layard. The mysterious meaning of the order is pity, mercy, kindness. Thus while women may not be able to get their suffrage as quickly as they might desire in all parts of the world, recognition is not lacking for what they do.

WORTHY OF NATION
CAPITAL SOON TO BE FINEST CITY IN THE WORLD.
Movements on Foot to Enlarge and Beautify Washington Already Are in Evidence—New Depot a Mark of Progress.
Though not entirely completed, the new Union station in Washington is such a vast improvement over the previous railroad terminal equipment of the capital that the inaugural visitors who have made trips there on other occasions must have been deeply impressed. They came through a gateway of great artistic attractiveness. They found themselves landed in a station which possesses every possible convenience for the comfort of the traveler. Everything is on a generous scale. A crowd of 10,000 people be handled with less friction now that was occasioned four years ago in the form of a thousand. Ten trains can discharge their loads simultaneously without making more a neighborly touching, of above, whereas in the old days two trainloads pouring into one of the stations at the same time would block every passage and cause infinite confusion.
This change is the token of the new Washington, the national capital as it is to soon be, in all its equipment. For the day is now at hand when the people of this country are demanding that their national center be made a credit to the republic. The federal legislators have felt the quickening impulse of this sentiment and stand ready now in more generous measure before to proceed with the evolution of the ideal capital upon broad lines. The program is moving forward appreciably, though perhaps at times the eager citizens may be impatient at the slowness of congressional action.
Just outside of the station the newcomer sees a wide expanse of territory flanked by the capitol and the senate office building. It is now an unlovely stretch in some respects, raw and rough along the outer edges, and obeys a transition state. A screen of evergreen trees has been put in position around the street car lines, barely hiding the street car lines, barely hiding the work of filling has not been finished. There is an ugly huddle of half-buried buildings left in their awkward plight by the change of grade, perhaps eventually to be taken into the plaza area or, failing that, to be replaced by attractive business buildings. The government contemplates—how leisurely the pro-creation is not to be predicted—the acquisition as yet untaken land lying directly beneath the station and the Capitol park. It has been proposed to place somewhere on that space a noble memorial to Abraham Lincoln, where, as an earnest advocate of the plan declares, it can be seen and appreciated the train comes in." This now untrimmed, undecorated station plaza will some day be one of the most famous places in the United States. Tardily but effectively the truth has been called at the capitol that this city of Washington stands before the world as the most of a great government, a world leader; that it is the center of American thought, an ever increasing power for the uplift of humanity. The obligation resting upon congress to make this city attractive in its garb, to give it no less than the best in all details of official outfitting and to place it on the highest possible plane of municipal finance is impressing itself annually more artificially as the legislators, and more useful terminal, a model of convenience and a credit to the public spirit of the railway corporations, is one of the results.
When another inauguration day arrives Washington expects to welcome its host of friends with the plaza complete in all respects, so that the incoming visitor will step forth to behold a scene that cannot be equaled in any other city in the world.
Setting the Capital in Order.
In December, during the centennial anniversary of the removal of the seat of government to the District of Columbia was observed. With one record, senators, representatives, governors and others of high and low degree expressed the belief that the time to set the city in order, artistically, was at hand. Among other organizations celebrating the anniversary was the Institute of American Architects, which in its discussion of past achievements did not lose sight of the fact that the city held possibilities. Working on its commission, Senator McMillan, chairman of the commission on the District of Columbia, secured the passage of a resolution authorizing him to appoint a commission to prepare a plan for the improvement of the park system. The commission, composed of Daniel H. Burnham, Frederick Law Olmsted, Jr., Charles McKim and Augustus St. Gaudens, prepared a plan which conformed so far as possible to the expectations of Eufant, extended it to meet present conditions, and provided measures to neutralize the misplacing of the Washington monument and other buildings.
The appointment of this park commission marked the third epoch in the development of Washington as a beautiful city. It did more than that, for though the plans submitted by the commission have not been realized—and indeed it was not expected that the commission would the station of the entire country was to move the movement for the betterment of other cities given impetus.

It is agreat misfortune of the South
that the leaders allow political con-
siderations to outweigh everything
else. For instance, when, in the last
Congress, « bill was offered giving
to American steamers reasonable com-
pensation for carying mails, nearly
every Southerner voted against it, be-
cause it was a Republican measure.
The fact that such a measure would
be of immense value to New Orleans,
Mobile ,Pensftcola and Galveston,
had no weight whatever with the
Southern Democrats. The Demo-
cratic caucus decided that the bill
must be beaten, and it was. beaten.

not an outlet for the products-of the

much difference with its foreign com-

bows the widow, petu-
SENATE lantly, as she
car and seated herself on a rock from
which she coyid observe the bachelor
at work, “to expect a woman to de-
scend to his level!”
“Just like «a woman,” retorted the
bachelor, calmly, “to expect a man to
rise to his ideals! But don’t move an
inch!” he “added, regarding her
thoughtfully. °sSYou look even more—
more—even more so from this dis-
tance.”
‘The widow snapped open her vanity
case and powderea her nose hastily
before replying.
“You might have gone up that hill
on the other side of the road,” she sug-
gested at length, “where there was a
path.”
“But the path was so straight and
narrow.” complained the bachelor, “Be-
sides, it's always easier going down.”
“And more slippery and more dan-
werous and—"
“More fascinating,” finished the
bachelor. “Are you trying to reform
me?" he added, with sudden suspicion.
“Heavens, no!” exclaimed the widow,
with a gesture of deprecation, “I
wouldn't know where to begin. You
have a Iittle of all the-sins, you know,
and not much of any of them. Now,
if you only had some one great fail-

“Would you prefer bigamy, or mur-

on the trunk of a fallen tree and took
out his pipe. “I could take to drink,
I suppose, or to gambling or—"
“Stop!” cried the widow, imperative-
ly, “I didn't mean any ‘of those things.
But, if you simply had some sort of
besetting sin which—well—which I
can’t think of just now! It must be
magnificent to reform a man!”
“And it must be awful,” groaned the
bachelor, “to marry a woman who
wants to reform you—like marrying a
human interrogation point or a cate-
chism. Just imagine having the Beati-
tudes for breakfast, and lectures for
luncheon and dissertations for dinner!”
“And fapey,” mused the widow,”

THOMAS E. SHEA DISCUSSES
PLAYS, ACTORS AND ACTING
‘Thomas B, Shea, who is one of the
most noted Shakespearian students
this country has. produced and ac-
knowledged to be one of the greatest
actors on the American stage, is a
most delightful gentleman to meet, and
last evening after his performance of
“The. Counsel for the Defense,” he
made himself comfortable in_hig little
dressing room back of the Grand stage
and talked entertainingly of many
things: pertaining to the stage.
“The best dramatic training for the
young actor is the modern drama,” he
said. “Even Shakespeare should be
read in the modern way. The sense of
his lines and not the tones are “what
should be sent over the footlights. In
spite of the really great actors who
maintain otherwise all old-fashioned
methods are bad, very bad. I am a
strong supporter of the modern as
against the old-fashioned methods as
applied to dramatic art.
“This does not mean that I think the
new plays are in any way the equal
of the old. There is no author of the
present day who can write a play that
deals with man’s conscience that will
equal Othello. The new plays are very
Pat, very “artistic, very’ human—some
of them—but they are not great in the
sense that the old plays are great. We
want the new things, but the old things
are great enoiigh to outlive them. You
will find this out. The test of a play's
greatness is its length of life.”
Mr. Shea, who was born in Cam-
bridge, Mass, and knows Boston as
most men know a favorite book, im-
presses the casual visitor to his dress-
ing room as a man of rare mental
qualities, high ideals in all departments
of human life. But he is especially
fond of the plays that deal with the
psychic, intangible things of life. His
standard of art is truth. Because he
is of that make he is fond of playing
“The Bells,” and “Othello,” and “Dr
Jekyll and Mr. Hyde." Because of the
same reason he has always refused te
play “Shylock.”
Going back to the subject of th
young actor, Mr. Shea said:
“Most young actors lack imagina-
tion. This is because they lack know!-
edge of the world and of the other
arts. ‘The study of any department of
life and learning will quicken the im-
agination and without a highly de-
veloped imagination no a&or can hope
to become great. It is the soul of
acting.
“The greatest actor on the Americar
stage today is Henry Miller. He 1s
great because he never loses sight of
the very highest ideals of dramatic art.
He is ever working along lines of ar-
tistic progress; is always spreading out
along new lines. He is the pioneer of
the American stage. Always ready tc
put on a new play if it has artistic
merit, he never allows commercialism
to dim his faith. He is the only man-
ager in the ‘country who would put
on ‘The Servant in the House.
“Another great actor Is Otis Skinner
‘He has worked hard and seriously and
has a true conception of his art. His
plays have not always been good plays
have not always shown progress, but
this is, perhaps, not his. fault.
“Sothern is also another great actor;
a man of the highest ideals and stand.
ards and an artist in every way. He
has done much for the American
stage.”
Mr. Shea talked delightfully of many
things; of old Boston and of new Bos-
ton; of the London “stage of Shake-
speare's day and of the present day:
of the classical drama of. present day
actors.. The little clock on the dress-
ing room table pointed past, midnight
when the visitor took his leave of the
Gelightful gentleman. who talked
Shakespeare and the Greek drama and
modern actors while the stage door-
Keeper walked up and down outside
and wondered if he would catch the

}80 superlatively good that you don't
feel superior to him any more, and
have nothing) to reproach him with!”
“Oh, you'd never have any trouble
about that,” ‘remarked the bachelor,
Inconsequently: blowing a ring. “Two
people who live together can always
find plenty of things with which to
reproach each other.” Even archangels
could pick flaws in one another it
they had to drink coffee at the sane
table every morning, and to live on
the same income with the same cook.
That is why there is no marrying in
heaven. The music of the spheres
couldn’t drown the matrimonial squab-
bles and deaden the din of disapprov-
ai”
“Yes,” sighed the widow, leaning her
chin In her hand thoughtfully. “Matri-
mony is war, and war is—well, it isn’t
heaven, You'd fancy that a mafriage
certificate was a Declaration of Inde-
pendence, instead of a peace treaty,
from the way in which most people
act after they have aigned it.”
“Te it a peace treaty?” inquired the
bachelor in sudden astonishment.
“It ought to. be,” continued \ the
widow promptly. “Then It would be
not only impolite, but a breach of
honor for the slgners to tread on one
another's private feelings and hurl
missiles at ont another's tenderest
spots.” Wheittyou entér the house of
matrimony you lay ‘aside your armor,
and all your weakest points are ex-
posed to each other's jabs and shatts,
I's barbarous’ to take advantage of
‘one another's helnlessness by plunging
the dagger of ériticism Into those weak
spots, especially when you have prom-
ised to love, ‘cherish and honor one
another.”
“But you haven't promised to AD-
MIRE one another,” protested the
bachelor.
“No," ‘agreed tha widow, “yet no-
body marzies.in order to get a life-
eritfe, but-an ardent admirer. And
you can't blame the one who has had
the dagger, thrust in and twisted
round for: putting on his armor again.
Yet nagging wives and browbeating
husbands -will continue to wonder why
thelr once devoted partners always be-
come such hardened! wretches."
Of course,” agreed the bachelor.

Much Eclat With Grand Re-
cital—Easter at Pilgrim.
St. Paul can now boast of a mag:
nificent pipe organ in Pilgrim Bap-
Uist Church, ‘The splendid instrument
which is now installed in the choir
loft was presented with a grand recital
on April 8th at which time the grand-
eur and power and sweetness of the
most up-to-date pine organ in this city
was demonstrated by Prof. G. H. Fair-
clough of St. John’s Episcopal Chureh,
the leading pipe organist of the North;
west. Mr. Fairclough’s splendid abit-
ity at the organ needs no greater at-
tention, ‘The Tuxedo Quartette of
which ‘St. Paul’ is justly, proud, was
compelled to respond to repeated on-
cores, so highly was its work appre-
cated. Miss Alma Peterson, soprona
soloist of the First Baptist Church and
prominent in the highest musical cir-
cles of St. Paul, completely charmed
her audience with her beautiful voice
and. graceful manner. ‘The yendition
of the’bass solo “The Mighty Deep"
by Mr. Allen J. French was a mas-
terly effort and a revelation to those
who had not before heard Mr. French's
voice. Miss Norma William's violin
number, showed the results of her re-
cent stiidy in Berlin and the work of a
finished artist.” ‘The audience was in-
spired with the spirit of the glorious
music she played. A brief lecture on
pipe organs, disclosing the worth and
grandeur of the new instrument, was
given by, Rev. Geo. W. Saterlee of
Central Park Methodist: Church. one
of the ablest ministers of the North-
west and prominent among the best
friends of our race in St. Paul. Rev.
Saterlee was introduced by’ Pilgrim's
efilcient’ and popular minister, | Rev.
W. D. Carter. Mrs. Biamarek’ C. Ar-
cher, ‘St. Paul's premier accompanist,
presided at the plano in her usual
pleasing and artistic manner. Mr. W.
‘T. Francis acted as Master of Cere-
monies.

Mrs. W. T. Francis made a short visi

‘U.S. 'Senator Moses B. Clapp met
Mrs. Francis by appointment at the
White House and personally intro
duced her. ‘The President's big smile
was in evidence and he was genial
and kindly. Mrs. Francis states that
he is as big in heart and principles
as he is in size.
‘Also through the courtesy of Con-

ANCIENT HINDU TEMPLE.
Remains Found in Java of Great Werk
of the Eighth Century.
The Boroboedoer, unearthed by Sir
Stamford Raffles when the English
ruled in Java, was bulit by the Hin-
dus in the eighth century, and is by
far the finest example of theit work
fn the island. Standing on a bill in
the middle of the valley this imposing
edifice, covering nearly ten acres, rises
toa height of upward of a hundred
feet above the summit of the hill,
It consists of a series of stone ter-
race built on top of each other in
@iminishing magnitude, so as to leave
circumscribing galleries, and crowned
by a vast cupola entrance to the gal-
Jeries is gained by four stairways,
north, south, east and west, whieh run
from the groung straight up to the big
top terrace, in the middle of which
stands the crowning eupola, surround-
ed by numerous smaller lattice work
cupalos, and from which one may step
aside into any of the intermediate gal-
leries.
‘The whole is built of stone, showing
‘an immense amount of carving, and,
though there is no genuine inside to
thotemple, many of th egalleries are
covered in, innumerable images of
Buddha occupy niches or prominent
positions on the walls, ‘and the sides
of the galleries were paved with bas-
reliefs, indicating the glorification of
this god and other incidents in his
history. When one considers that
there are, several miles of basreliefs
alone the/work expended on the pyra-
Inids of Bzypt pales into insignificance
defore this stupendous undertaking.

EYE DEFECTS AND SYMPTOMS,
Wye defects are few—symptoms many. >
There can be but two defects in the human eye.
Theeye may be too long in whole. Then we have the
Myopic eye.
Or too short in whole—the Hyperopic eye.
Combine the two in one eye and we have Astigmatism.
Properly adjusted glasses will correct these defects.
Medicines or waiting, never, -
Symptoms that spring from these two ‘simple’ eye mal-
ormations are manifold; such as eye and headaches, Indi-
geation, Dyspepsia, Nervous Debility, Chorea, Epilepsy and
other ailments having their origin in lack of nerve force.
‘We correct all Defects of the human, éye that glasses
will remedy. Charges reasonable. Satisfaction guaranteed.
