' | London, EMhnd Is not reincarnation a reasonable belief? How old is this doctrine, and what was Buddha's' view about it? Answer—The idea of reincarnation through the transmigration of the soul goes back to primitive times when. the :soul was regarded as a shadow: image of the lndlv\diul It was supposed to be subtle and elusive and was_said to enter, after the death of its’ original ‘owner, into other men, and even into animals. ‘This belief was held by Pythagoras, who taught the kinship of men and al 8. Empedocles.also belfeved in this kinship and affirmed that in the course of transmigration he had suc- cessively been a hird, a plant, a fish, @ youtir and & malden. The doctrine received its full devel- opment in India. There it was held that man through a dreary cycle of successive births and deaths. His future destiny of retribution or reward depended upon his present Life thus became an {nterminable chain which linked man’s present to 0 | his previous existence and bound him to_an inevitable future. Buddha' denled this Hindu belief and affirmed that the endless chain could be broken. He accepted the prineiples of rebirth, but rejected the doctrine of the existence of the soul. His ideal was the extinction of de- wire for a future life. It was to be attained in nirvana, which is a state e( mlveneu rather lhln of noth- Buddhl. was not tonllutenl in his theory, but he aimed a blow at the tyrannical doctrine of transmigration, In 80 doing he brought deliverance to those who were caught in the vi- clous circle of recurrent being. Neither -his view nor .that of rein- carnation does justice to a balanced conception of personality. This is found in Jesus Christ, who taught that one who axurhnen fel- lowship with God here is assured of ‘at, their full tide of glory. MENU FOR A DAY.

Time was when we knew geraniums chiefly *as. rather gaudy, brick-red flowers, carelessly plumped into red brick pots, blowsy, noisy and ‘trivial. But modern horticuiture and modern 8ood taste in gardening have softened and refined the geranium. ‘{We -are pleased to call them geraniums, but they are really pelar- gonlums, while the little wild cranes- bill of our woods and meadows is a true geranfum. To the average man, wevef, geranium means garden fum, and the technical botanist must bow to the tide of favor of the name geranium. Among all the sorts of geranium. including the ivy-leaved, the Lady ‘Washingtons, the fish. horseshoe and zonal, the quaintest of them all, the rose geranium, is my favorite. To be sure, it is not grown for its flow- ers, which are inconspicuous or wholly absent, but the lovely pun- gency of its leaves when crushed be- tween the fingers brings back the recoliection of old romance. just as the odor of box will do. Few people grow rose geranjum now, but here and - there in old-time gardens of Maryland and V irginia it lingers still, breathing the spirit of colonial times. Crab Salad. Dip six large, firm tomatoes in boil- ing water, slip off the skin and care- fully remove the centers, leaving a cup. Place the tomatoes on ice to harden. Chop the meat of six boiled crabs, season to taste, and fill the tomato cups. Serve the stuffed to- matoes on lettuce leaves with a spoon- , ful of mayonmaise topping each to- mato. Chicken and various other salads may be used to fill the tomato cups. A vegetable salad made from the chopped centers of the tomatoes, combined withs finely shredded celery or lettuce and™ chopped apple, is appetizing. . Chickan-Corn Pudding. Clean and cut one chicken in small pleces, and simmer in a closely cov- ered pan until tender. Then take out and lay in a baking dish, seasoning well with salt and pepper. Have ready one quart of green corn cut fine, three eggs well beaten, and one pint of sweet milk, about one tea- spoonful of salt, one-half tea- spoon of pepper, and a dust of cayenne. Pour this mixture over the chicken, .dredge thickly with flour or very dry bread crumbs; lay on bits of butter, and bake in a moderate hot oven until set and a delicate brown. @ more liberal fellowuhlp in the here- after.
