PEARL MOSQUE WELL NAMED Structure at Agra, India, Admittedly One of the Most Beautiful in the World. Amongz the most beautiful of Shah Jahan's sculptured monuments is the Pearl mosque at Agra. The entrance | gateway of red sandstone conmtrasts effectively with tle interior of white and bluc-veined marble. An inscrip- tion in letters of black marble states that this mosque may be likened to a precious pearl, for no other mosque is similarly lined with marble. The Indian influence upon Mahome- tan architecture of this period is evi- | denced in the lotus petal cap decorat- | tng the domes and in the purely Hindu | finials, legitimate Mahometan mosques Dearing instead the simple spire, with the star and crescent. The foliated arches come from a Buddhist source, symbolizing the lotus-leaf shaped aura around the body of Gautama. The pointed upper foliation is derived from | the shape of the leaf of the bodhi, or pipul tree, under which Gautama at- fained to enlightenment and Budda- hood, and is commonly used in Bud- dhist idolatry to indicate the nimbus | around the head. The master builders of Mogul days were chiefly Indians from Bengal, and since they were artists and artisans rather than mechanical workers much of the inspiration of the architecture of this period must be accredited to them. GREAT WORK OF TEACHERS Theodore Rooseveit’'s Tribute to Their Services to the Country Surely Well Deserved. Moreover, as an incident to your teachers’ avowed work, you render some well-nigh unbelievable services to the country. For instance, you render to this republic the prime, the vital service of amalgamating into one homogeneous body the children of those who are born here and of those who come here from so many different lands abroad. You furnish a common tralning and common ideals for the children of all the mixed peoples who are here being fused into one natlon- ality. It is in no small degree due to you and to your efforts that we, of this great American republic, form one peo- ‘ple instead of a group of jarring peo- ples. The children, wherever they bave been born, wherever their parents have been born, who are educated in sur schools side by side with one an- other, will inevitably grow up having that sense of mutual sympathy and mutval respect and understanding, which is absolutely indispensable for working out the problems that we as citizens have before us.—Theodore Roosevelt, in an address before the National Educational association at Ocean Grove, July 7, 1905. : The Wigs of Constantinople. There was a special assistant to the French ambassador in Constantineple years ago whose friends in Paris wished to play a trick on him, and so they told him to take a cargo of wigs with bim to Constantinople, and he would make a lot of money. The man bought the cargo of wigs, only to find on arrival that the people had never Beard of wigs and had no use for them whatever. The ambassador noticing that his friend was melancholy, discov- ered the cause to be the unsold cargo of wigs. so he told the story to the grand vizier, who told the sultan. Whereupon the sultan sent an order to all the synagogues in the city that all the Jews in the city must wear wigs. The Jews didn’t even know what @ wig was, much less where they could get one. And this was just the moment for the possessor of a cargo of wigs, who put them on the market and made a pocketful of money. Helgoland Beliefs. Helgoland was culled Hertha in an- cient times. The island was inde- pendent from the tenth to the four- teenth centuries, until the dukes of Schleswig took it over and used it mainly as a pawn for loans until the Danes acquired it 400 years later, Den- mark ceded it to Great Britain in the pineteenth century and the British fortified it for defensive purposes. The islanders absorbed customs and fdeax of the many nationalities that visited them, 9¢lm'nmg each with a dis- tinctive touch. They even had & curi- ous quirk in their Sutan, a wooden leg: Hence the Schleswig saying: “In Hel- goland the devil goes on crutches.” Buffalo Roam in Australia. When Austraiians refer to their empty north, they do not always re- call the fine herds of buffalo which roam in the northern territory. The buffalo has prospered greatly since the first animals were imported, and hig hide and horns offer a fairly easy source of revenue. In the hot, wide territory over which the “mud buffalo” roams, it is not feasible to use him as a new source of food supply, and at- tempts at yarding have shown that the buffalo’is a true Australian, as he re- sents being driven and expresses this resentment vigorously. that the mud buffalo has four stomachs and does not chew the cud.
