CURIOUS WORK OF PENANCE Anclent Buddhist of Japan Writes 126,000 Words on Piece of Paper 18 by 7% Inches. For some time thers has been shown in San Francisco a plece of paper 13 inches by 7% inches, on Which there are written 126,000 words. This writing 1s the work of Kobo Taishi, a Buddhist of Japan, who lived 1,100 years ago. Before his time his countrymen used only Chinese char- acters in writing and he evolved the Idea of the Japanese aiphabet. The writing on the pnper is so fine that a microscope has to be used to decipher the intricate Japanese char- acters. It 18 an exact copy of elght books of the Buddhist Bible, and was written by the author as a sort ot Penance to purify his spirif. It 1s the Praperty of a descendant of the writer, and has passed as a sacred heirloom from father to son for & thousand years. Every precaution has been taken to insure the . safety of the document. In a case of white wood is a beautiful laquered box wrapped in green silk. Within the laquered box is another made of a very light porous Wwood that is extensively used in the manufacture of cabinets in which to store treasures. In this box is the precious writing. Pepsin. The introduction of pepsin as & re- Medial agent effected a complete revo- lution in the method of restoring to normal the allments which in the old days were classed in a group as dys- pepsia. If physicians were to observe anni- versaries of the discovery of remedies which had proved a blessing to mans kind the entire profession would unite in remembering the fiftieth anniver- sary of the first manufacture of pepsin in this country. - Just half a century ago the late John Carrick, the eminent ' physiological chemist and the father of physiological products in the United States, made possible a new epoch in American medicine by producing the first pepsin. Pepsin had ‘been made in a small way in Europe before Mr. Carrick’s enterprige caused it to be introduced here, as it was originally - suggested by Dr. Corvieant of Paris. The qual ity-was so poor, however, that its use was distinctly limited. Queer Monument, * A monument erected in the Strag: lieno cemetery has a very ‘curious his- tory. It is that of an old woman of Genoa, who made & living by ‘selling strings of nuts in the streets. By fru- gality and industry she succeeded in amassing a small fortune in this way, and then commissioned a well known sculptor of Genoa, Luigl Orengo, to make a life size portrait of her in marble just as sheappeared at her pitch-in the street. This statue she ordered to be placed in the famous Straglieno cemetery, probably the largest in the ' world.—World Wide Magazine. s Plea for Proper Education. v Bir John Gorst is trying. to rouss the British mind to a sense of the fu- tility—even to the viclousness—of an relationship to the practical needs of the time. His indictment is not Iack- ing in directness. “A starved and stunted race,” he says, “Is being alk lowed to grow up as a legaey for the next generation to deal with, for im most elementary schools children are: only drilled, not educated.” Again, “The higher and university schools are still fettered by mediaeval systems which makes the acquiiltion of learn- IN WEMORY OF JOHN BUNYAN|TO ABOLISH GERMAN SALUT .-+ ater-Abbey: Deplots 8cenes From “The Pligrim's Progress.” Two hundred and twenty-thres| The progress:in urbanity—the art ‘years ‘after. the death of the-famor his memory hae just: been placed in’| b¥:the'movement for , o als Wentminster Abbey..

Retiring for the night, a tiny, maid- en climbed into her mother's lap and kissed her on both cheels. Her man- ner being rather more effusive than usual, it was suspected that confes- slon woild be forthcoming. That was the fact, not long delayed. “Mamma,” said the child, “I've been naughty. I'm afrald the angels: have marked my name in the Big Book as & bad girl.” “I hope not, dear;” the mother re- plied. “What have you been doing?” “It's something I haven't done, mam- ma,” the little girl explained. “I have gone to bed .for two weeks without saying my prayers.” “Why, deamle,” chided the mother, gently, “that is really serious. ‘What shall we do about 1t?” “I've been thinking it over, mam- ma,” the small delinquent said, “and made up my mind to say ‘Our Father’ and ‘Now.

S R I Zulla. It is stated that no matter what class of animal 1s brought to Jeres de la Frontera, Spain, in two genera- tlons it acquires remarkable tough-. ness and endurance. This s attributed partly to the climate, but principally to their feeding on a rich, wild cloy- er called “zulla,” found only fn the province of Cadis, which. people there say is the finest food In the world for horses. The zilla is very rich in sustenance and grows to three or four feet in helght, and with more luxuriance in chalky, clayey soil, such as is found *|here in the vineyards which produce the famous Jerez wine or sherry. it 18 never sown or cultivated, as it seems to grow best wild, Difference of Decree. ¢ “What is the difference,” asked & dear and trusting sister of Deacon Philander of Osborne the othér day, “between the probate judge and the diggrict judge?” “Well,” replied old Philander, with one of his rare smiles, “you tell the probate judge you can’t live without her and you tell the district Judge you can’t live with her.”—New Or leans Picayune.
