It Is called the Holi and consists chiefly In the plentiful sprin- kling upon all and sundry of a certain red preparation called holl powder. It stains the white clothes of the natives with an ugly, dirty looking red that conjures up before timid eyes dread visions of bloody fights and ghastly mutinies. The powder is made in two shades—the one vermilion, the other rose red—and both are used impartial- Iy by the observers of the ceremony, who delight in bedaubing their faces ‘with the powders until they look lke strange and hideous denizens of hades come up, still glowing with the fires of that region.

Bat, alas, the years taught her the bar- renness of all such promises. And one night, when he was getting to be an old man, a prematurely old man, thin limbed, stoop shouldered, with red rimmed eyes, he said to his wife sadly: “‘You're a clever woman, Jenny, a courageous, active, good woman.

Hunters, fishermen and nature students have tried to answer this question, and many are the guesses at the riddle. Mr. William Brewster watched an American golden eye that ‘aad a nest In the hollow tree overhang: Ing the water until he heard her, after she had made an inspection of the sur- roundings, utter a “quack” that brought her brood pellmell out of the tree and tumbling down into the water.
