and there to get in and out of the pue

off into little flats of Lira rooms each,
and to each flat lived one family. On
top of the first story was another row
ire houses, and en some parts of the
pueblo there was still a third story.
rl'he people who lived in the upper
lhaus's went up and down by ladders

front, and on this would sit a circle

chatting and laughing, and telling stor-

innumerable stories of the old days,

witches and demons and goblins of all

'those stories told in front of the fire in

ness? Do nut make the ntistaice of
thinking that these are diseases in
thennselves and be satisfied with relied
for the time being.
This is the way that the nerves give
warning that they are breaking down.
It menus that the blood has become
impure end thin and cannot carry
enough nourishment to the nerves to
keep them healthy and able to do their

Mrs. David J. Tapley, Fredericton,

Pink pills after suffering from nervous
breakdown, which resulted in partial
paralysis of the lace. She says: "Tho
trouble came on quite gradually. end
et the outset I did not pay much at-
tention to it. Then it grew more seri-
ous, and there was a general break-
down of the nerves, which was follow-

for a couple of months, and one treat-
ment after another was tried without

did its work, end alter a time I was
able to again come down stairs. From
that on the improvement was =ell

THE PLOUGHING SEASON
OBSERVANCE OF THE OPENING IN
DIFFERENT REGIONS.
The Romans Regarded the Seasons
With Reverence—Certain Days to
Plough in India.
The first farmers deemed it necessary
to propitiate certain powers before they
ploughed and planted and to this end
hestiluled elaborate agricultural festivals
and ceremonials. The formal inaugura-
tion of the ploughing season is very
ancient and still is observed in some
parts of the world.
Among the Romans, teethe institution
of various religious festivals connected.
with agriculture, the seasons came to be
regarded with a sort of sacred. reven-
ence . Before the old Roman put the
plough into the ground he went to• the
temple of the goddess of earth, Teilus,
cote of whose ,priests performed certain
propitiatory rites. Vergil in his "Geor-
gies° .advises the Rerun husbandman
to observe the signs in heaven accord-
ing to the crop he desires to produce.
The time to plough for fine, barley and
llle sacred poppy was when "Ballance
has equalized the hours of day and
steep and halves the world exactly be-
tween light and shade. When Tamers
ushers in the year with his gilded horns
and Sirius sits facing the threatening
bull is time for beans; for wheat and
spelt the Plalads should hide themselves
from your eyes with he dawn, Many
have begun before Maria sets, but the
desired crop has battled them with
empty ears," But first of all the poet
admonishes the farmer to "honor the
gods and offer sacrifices to Ceres,"
CUSTOMS OF INDIA.
In India there are certain days when
it is unlawful to plough. Mother Earth
is supposed to sleep six days In every
month, and on such days she refuses
to be disturbed In he slumber.
In northwest India the cultivator em-
ploys a puhdlt to select en auspicious
time for the commencement of .plough -

Among the Karnes, before ploughing,
the farmer makes a burnt offering of

and again at
'l'iIE VILLAGE SI-IRINE.
The Chinese begin ploughing 00 the
first day of their solar year, Anciently
the riles which were celebrated by the
Chinese at ploughing lime were elabor-
ate but rationalistic sovereigns eliminate
ed one expensive religious rite after an-
other until nettling was left except the
imperial act of homage to heaven and
etlrth and agriculture in the ceremon-
ial ploughing..
The Siamese observe a rite called
Roakua about the nllddle of May, which
is preliminary to the ploughing season,
end is not proper for any one le plough
mobil the ceremony is over, The court
*astrologers determine the time for it.
00 the day axed by them the Minister
of Agriculture, who is always a prince
or nobleman of high rank, goes with a
procession to a .piece of ground some
bPsbonce frons the capital. Where the
festivities aro to lake place a new
plough to which a pair at buffaloes are
ycked is in readiness, decorated with
flowers and leaves.
The minister guides the plough over
the field ebosely watched by the spee-
tators, who are especially interested in
the length and folds of the silk of his
lower garments, because the prosperity
of the season and its characteristics, wet
or dry, are to be predicted from these
as he follows the plough. if the robe
rises above his knee there will be dis-
astrous rains, If it falls below the ankles
there will be a drought, If the folds
reach midway between knee and ankle
Um season will be prosperous.
After a proper number of furrows
have been turned old women strew
grain of different kinds in them, and
the bulls are released from the yoke and
allowed to feed upon the seeds. The
grain which the animals eat most free -
le will be scarce next harvest and that
which they refuse to take
WILL BE ABUNDANT,
The Germans anciently had a before
ploughing ceremonial. Sods were cut
Irom the four corners of the Ilekl. Up-
cn these wase laid oil, honey and •barn,,
mills branches of every kind of tree ex-
cept oats and beech and of all name
known as herbs save burrs. The whole
wore sprinkled then with holy water.
The four turfs were then carried to the
church and placed green side toward
the altar. Four masses were said ever
them and they were returned to their
places before sunset.. Then spells were
spoken and unknown seed, bought of
beggarmcn, placed on the plough. The
first furrow was .ploughed whit a "flail
Earth, Mother of Men, &c." From
meal of every kind a large loaf was
kneaded with milk and baleenand laid
under the first furrow.
The following curious custom Is re-
corded by J, Owen Dorsey in his mono-
graph 0n the sociology of the Omaha
Indians:
"In the spring when the grass conies
tip there is a Menet] or tribal assembly
held 10 which a feast is given by the
head of the Range gene. After they de-
