Persia Still Primtive, he laws of the Medes and Per- mians have ‘become a synonym of immutability; Persia itsclf, almsot | railroadless, primitive and isolated, is essentially unchanged, And the re- mote Luristan province, on its west- ern border, corrugated by mountain ranges, is one of the most backward and unaltered regions of all Persia. “Luristan nomlnul‘ accepted Mo- | hammedanism, but “the Lurs pay scant attention to the Koran or to the Prophet. Their religion em- | braced a philosophical belief in re- incarnation and the practice of an- cient heathen rites. “The Elam of the Book of l';sther included Luristan, and the ruins of Susa, within the borders of the pres- ent proyince yielded to excavators of recent years specimens of NEW BRITA Used Kellogg’s Bran 2 months— constipation gone after suffering 3 years Three years of suffering with con- stipation.

A Persian legend attributes the discov- | ery of wine to a queen’s toothache, “A shah had placed grapes in a far to preserve them and they fer- mented, so the story runs.

Therefore, natives tell you, the Persian word for wine to this day means ‘sweet poison.’ Alexander's Last Campaign. “A superstitious general might hes- itate to invade Turistan, There Alexander the Great made his last campaign, offering up the enemy as human sacrifices to the spirit of his friend,* Hephaestion.
