By Reason of Their Occupation Vast Numbers of India's Millions Are Considered Unclean -- Christian Missions Are Doing a Good Deal to Relieve the Suffering of the Pariah * Caste by Education. ' Nihil Singh has written in the May pumber of the Southern Workman of the tragedy of the low-caste Hindu whom terms India's '"'untouch- ables." Every one who knows even a little about India is aware that great pumbers of people are, because of their occupations considered as un- clean as the leper of sacred history. The touch of their garments, even, the mere shadow of an "untouchable" falling on a high caste Hindu, makes it necessary to bathe the person and wash all the clothing so defiled. The feeling is carried so far that the low- caste Hindu gets into trouble if he wears decent clothing. A low-caste man was recently ston- ed in Madras because he affected bet' ter clothing than he had a right to wear, according to the ideas of his. high-caste townsmen. In Mangalore, South Canara, when a lad Sejonging to one of the so-called "depres classes" went out in the hot sun on a midsummer day with an umbrella over his head, his sunshade was forei- bly taken away from him, and he was' beaten with it until he promised in the future to get along without this | article so necessary in a tropical cli- imate. These are not solitary in- stances, they are typical of the treat- ment that Hindu Indias accords its submerged brethren, The 'untouchables' resides in little; huts made of palm leaves or mud, without windows and with a single' doorway, usually so small that even & child must stoop in order to enter Lit, containing absolutely no furniture { except a few 'rudely-baked edrthen' po and pans. Generally there is no | stead of any kind, the whol: fam- {ily sleeping huddled up on the bare { floor, which is commonly plastered | with cow dung. Only a few rags cover their persons, and these are worn night and day. Their financial con- dition precludes eating more than one meal a day, and this oftener than not br {ar from hunger appeasing, and is seldom calculated to appeal to the | palate. For this wretched existence they must work hard and for long { hours. On account of the filthy econ- {dition in which they live, disease is rampant among them. According to the last census 88 out of 100,000 peo- pl of the depressed classes are al- | ficted with leprosy. In the matter of | education they are as deficient as they are in every other virtue. Ae- | cording to the report of the director- [genom of public instruction of Bom- ay, parely five out of 1,000 of the pariah children of the presidency, of school-going : age, on school. In one word, these 53 odd millions of Hindus are not only socially, but also intellectually, physically, financially, and morally, submerged.

Through him and his schools these poor creatures may rise above their low estate. In the Punjab canal | colonies there are now a half-dozen | villages wholly populated by lowy | caste converts," says Nihil Singh. Oné® {of these villages is Martinpur inhab: ited by people who were formerly | "sweepers," who lived in unspeakable Ith. Martinpur was settled a little over a decade ago by some 70 Indian Christian families who were selected from many districts and brought to the new colony by a missionary. The government made a grant of 1,260 acres, Some of the families were al- Jotted one square, about 210 acres; | others have given half a square; while | the two lambardars--village headmen | --were granted two squares each. The | entire population of Martinpur to-day | is about 1,000, including the relatives | and helpers of the 70 families that | settled in the town, and not one of | this 1,000 follows the hereditary pro- fession of his fathers. They have fore. {| eworn scavangering and sweeping, | skinning dead animals, tanning leath- {er and making shoes. On the con- { trary, all are engaged in farming. Put- | ting aside the question of whether or { not they have become Christians, they | have altained to self-respect and de- cent living. In gratitude to those who have pull- ed them from the unspeakable de- grations of their former life, these peo ple have built a church and sustain it, and those who can bring no money give of their SIS Indeed, the Martinpur people are prosperous. The women wear orna- | ments that are made neither of Ger- man silver nor of white or yellow brass, but of real silver or genuine gold. The agriculturists own their own Plow cattle, cows and bufaloes, all -of m sleek and well fed." Unlike the farmer in the.same district, the Martinpur people eat white bread, meat, and vegetables. It is said of them that they have so much interest in improvi their condition, that they have planted trees in their vil lage, keep its streets clean, actually are anxious to have good sanitary con- ditions, and have improved the place to such an extent that Government has praised them. The advantages reaped by the "un- touchsble" convert are these; He in contact with the missionary, and this inculcates habits, of cleanti- punctuality; and, if feast whets the man's aver LONDON MESSENGER ROYS. They Are Often Entrusted With Re. markable Jobs to Perform. Some curious instances of the quaint tasks which the ubiguitous London District Messenger boy is called on to undertake were given at the annual presentation of prizes-- made by Princess Mari¢ of Schleswig- Holstein--at the Duke of Portland's house in the city a few days ago. All sorts of tasks, some romantic, some comic, had been performed by the boys who won these rewards. If any of the boys earned his medals Alfred Beale did. He re- ceived three--one for good conduct, one for going to Rome, and one for going to Paris. Beale is one of those have greatness thrust He is quite willing to he gets an order from giving him the route to some foreign country, and he enjoys the trip. His Rome trip was undertaken for the purpose of delivering a suit of court uniform, made by a West End firm, to a customer in Rome who was in a hurry. He took some geometrical projec- tors to a customer in Paris for whom the ordinary mail was not quite quick enough. That, however, was an uneventful job, though he was there and back inside twenty-four persons who upon them. go whenever headquarters hours. But probably his mosi curious job was a journey to Liege, undertaken solely for the purpose of handing to the Grand Duke of Mecklenburg-- who was on his way from Paris to Berlin--a luncheon basket from Lon- don containing delicacies which the Grand Duchess particularly favored. "You are the first messenger boy I have seen, I think," said the Grand Duke, "and it is pretty smart of you to come over here alone." Beale has already traveléd about 4,000 miles alone. Several of the other boys decorated had won their laurels in peculiar ways. Messenger Robbins, for in- stance, had to fetch an elephant and its keeper, an Indian boy, from Brix- ton to the Palladium and to take it back the same night--a task which gave him the precious experience of a ride on an elephant's back. One of the most amusing tasks mentioned was that of a boy who was sent for in hot haste to a house where he found standing on s table a terrified lady, who refused to de- scend until a mouse which she had seen in the room had béen captured. The messenger caught and dispatch- ed the unhappy mouse within hall an hour. Another queer task mentioned was that of *'essenger C. Cliff, who was res'dents to stand in front of a Ger- man band which was playing in the street and suck a lemon. ventual- ly one of the tormented musicians threatened him under the ear, but in stopping the "music" was not stated. : -------- Cause For Economy. "A new hat, my dear?" said Mr. Needall. "I must say you don't seem to be following my suggestions of SO%Iv's the first new hat I've had this six months!" answered his wile, snif- fling. "Nonsense ! old one?" What's wrong with your "It's out of date," she brindled. "And. after sll, while I've been inching and saving, what have you pane doing, I'd like to know? You've been going to your clubs and music halls and smoking your expensive cigars"-- : "Of course, my darling," he inter. rupted in a pained voice. "What else do you suppose I asked you to econo- mize for?"'--Answers. ---- China's Food Problem. No natural resource is too trifling to be turned to account by the teeming population of China. The sea is raked and strained for edible plunder. Sea- weed and kelp have a place in the lar- der. Great quantities of shellfish no bigger than one's finger nail are open- ed and made to yield a food that finds it way far inland. The fungus that springs up in the grass after a rain is eaten. Fried sweet potato vines furnish the poor man's table. The roadside ditches are bailed out for the sake of fishes no longer than one's finger. Careful observers say that four-fifths of the conversation among common Chinese relates to food. Legal Advice. happened to be passing his shop, "will yor. tell me if this is a good half sovereign?"

" With My Back." Backache resulting from weak kidneys, a bad cold or other cause, usually renders the sufferer unfit for work and often results in per- manent disability. "1 suffered for years with my back, or kidney trouble, and have tried a number of remedies from different physicians. More than a year ago, one of our local druggists induced me to try Dr. Miles' Aati-Pain Pills and after using them some three months I found a decided improve- ment in my kidneys, and 1 am glad to say that 1 hope soon to be fully restored to health."

Housecleaning time is dreaded just. ly by a great many people, but the thoughtful husband may get it through with in short order. Washing windows, for instance, is always gone about in such an awkward way, the windows being washed in statu quo, so to speak. A simpler way is to take the windows out and send them to the laundry. Dusting the pictures is also usually attended with munch hard work. A quick and simple plan is to take hold of the frame firmly and swing the picture back and forth, hitting it ghatply agsinst the wall each time. This dislodges the dust, which falls to the floor and may easily be swept up. If you have no vacuum cleaner you m-y improvise one with an old bi. cycle pump by attaching a funnel to the nozzle. Then work the pump backward, so that instead of forcing the air out it will be drawn in. The rugs may soon be cleaned in this way. Washing the woodwork is another futile procedure. Simply get a few gallons of paint and paint over the grime on the woodwork. To repolish the hardwood floors take your wife's manicure buffer and sit down in a comfortable position and go to work. You will be surprised at what a pleasant way this will be to while away the evenings. Don't Read This Often. "Hi, mister," called the driver of a huge dray, "will you kindly hold my hoss' head for me while I get down?" The pedestrian hesitated. ¢ "Well, I'll do my best," he observ- ed, approaching gingerly, "though I don't know much about horses. Er-- which one shall I hold?" "The off 'un," replied the driver. "Dear me! Poor thing!" exelaimed the pedestrian. "Do you mean this sad-looking ome?" "No, I don't," cried the driver, "I said the off 'un, didn't 1?" "Yes, 1 know you did," replied the pedestrian testily, "but as wasn't at his parents' funeral how the dick- ens am I to guess which is the or- phan?" --Answers. A Curious Accident. Of all the curious accidents the strangest occurred in the Madras pre- sidency, India, some years ago. A large party was out shooting and had mor tally wounded a tigress. She was. however, still able to fight, and one of the hunters, having rashly ventured 100 near, was seized by the beast. His companions ran up and soon despatch. ed the tigress and released her victim Buf just as he rose to his feet there was a loud report, and he fell again, with a bullet through his chest. In vising he had struck with his foot and discharged his own rifle, whica lay on tne ground.

The com- poser once accompanied his wife, whi was even then a celebrated pianist to the palace when she went to play before the King of Holland and was gratified by the monarchs con phi- ments of her performance. The com- poser was somewhat surprised, how- ever, when the king turned to him and courteously inquired, "Are you also musical?" They say Schumann was so indignant that he never spoke for an hour. A ec------------------ Power of an Air Brake. Some idea of the power of an air brake may be gained from the foHow- ing facts: It takes a powerful loco- motive drawing a train of ten passen- gers cars a distance of about five miles to reach a speed of sixty miles an hour on a straight and level track. The brakes will stop the same train from a8 of 80 miles an hour in 700 feet. a train may be stopped by the brakes in about 3 per cent. of the distance speed. i ------------------ Measure For Measure.
