The country known to Dnglish speak-

name among its own people It is called
Bud, or Bud-yul, "the cou try of Bod."
The name Bod probably r ers to Bud-
dha. Though ostensibly :It ddhists, the
people of Bod are in reali y slaves to
Lamaism, a system of th biogy which
has been defined us "Buddh 4m corrupted
by Sivaism and by Shama ion, or spirit
worstalp." Shamanism is he dominant
cult of Mongolia and is a tstem of de
mon worship rather than s rit worship.

HELPED THE STRANGER.
The Surprise That WAS In Store VOT
a Newspaper Man.
A northern newspaper man happoned ;
to be in Atlanta, a stranger, on bas:ness
connected with his profession. The c ty I
was crowded at the time, his accommoda-
tions were poor, and he had some diffi-
culty in finding a suitable place to pre-
pare his copy.
In this emergency he was courteously
invited to make such use of the office of
the Atlanta Constitution as he .might de-
sire, and he was not slow to take advan-
tage of the opportune invitation.
On his first visit there a quiet, retiring
fellow promptly surrendered his desk to
him and modestly asked if he could be
of any service. The visitor had a good
deal to do and little time to do it in, and
hefound several ways of making the At-
lanta man useful.
He had little hesitation in doing this
because he was a man of some impor-
tance In his home office and was accus-
tomed to have other members of the staff
giveway to him and perform little serv-
ices when he needed such help.
The quiet man proved most obliging,
not only on this occasion, but also on the
following day, when the northerner had
oecasion to make use of the office again.
He furnished some bits of information,
accepted with becoming humility the
rather brusque instructions of the visitor
and attended to getting the copy to the
telegraph office. The visitor, of course,
thanked him, and the better to show his
appreciation offered him a cigar.
Later; when about to leave the city, the
visitor commented to another member of
The Constitution staff on the extreme
courtesy with which he bad been treated
and expressed a regret that he had not
met Joel Chandleit Harris.
"Harris!" exclaimed the local newspa-
per man. "Why, you -were sitting at
Harris' desk, and Harris was the man
who filed your copy for you!"
"Great Scott," cried the visitor, "you
don't mean Joel Chandler Harris!"
"Yes," was the reply; t`that's who it
was."
"Have I had 'Uncle Remus' running
errands for me? Why, I'd have written
my stuff on the floor rather than disturb
him if I'd known who he was!".
FOUND HER TONGUE.
A Sudden Cnre 1l'or the Bride Who
Played Dumb.
"My wife had her curiosity appeased in
a way that will satisfy her for some
time," said the newly married man as he
smiled. "It was my idea to make our wed-
ding trip as quiet as possible and do
away as much as we could with the an-
noyance that usually attends wedding
couples. But the lady said that she was
proud of being a bride and that she want-
ed to hear the comments that the people
would make. Witb this end in view she
hit upon the crazy•notion of 'slaying deaf
and dumb and going through a lot of
monkey shines with our fingers to carry
out the scheme. She reasoned that this
would cause people to talk in our pres-
ence, and thus we would be able to hear
what they said.
"I opposed the idiotic idea from the
start, but what I said cut no figure, and
I had to consent to the plan. Our first
chance to try the scheme occurred in
railway station where we were waiting
for a train. My wife commenced her
pantomime, and I hadto carry it out,
feeling like a fool while 1 was doing it.
She wabbled her fingers, and I wabbled
mine, and we soon had every one staring
at us. There were two women seated
back of us, and the comments she desired
so much to hear soon came.
"'It's a newly married couple,' said
one. 'The poor things are deaf and
dumb. Isn't it awful?'
"'What do you suppose he saw in her?'
asked the other. 'She is positively home-
ly.'
"'And I believe her hair is bleached,'
said the first woman.
"'And her hat is out of date,' was the
next startler.
"'Looks like an old one made over,'
was the reply.
" 'Her dress wrinkles in the back,' sad
the first.
"'She's 35 if she's a day, and she looks
as if she had a frightful temper,' put in
one of them.
"Right there my wife found her tongue,
and her remarks to those two women left
no doubt about her having that Impor-
tant article that women are supposed to
exercise so freely."
A Happy Old Age In Burma.
When Burman parents are past their
prime, their children pray them to "nobo-
sat," which means that they should be
at the children's charge for the remain
der of their lives, as the children had
first been at their parents'. The turning
point is not marked by any formality,
but a child approaching parents on a sol-
emn occasion- adopts the gesture of ven-
eration. The aged are not idle; they pre-
serve a great elasticity of mind and in-
terest in things; they study their reli-
gious hook and occupy themselves with
their grandchildren. When they are too
old to go on pilgrimages with the others,
they keep the house and tell their bends
alone. The old people wear plainer
clothes than the young and, according to
old Burmese fashion, less of them. The
human dignity of the aged is of a kind
that apparelr cannot add to. Steeped
in the spirit Of Buddhism, the aged nev-
er yield to anger. Wanting neither for
necessaries nor honor, the pathos of
their serene old age is purely that of
years. A peaceful end is 'their lot.--

Taking an Exception.
"Ain't you the ornery vagabone," said
the sharp faced woman, looking at him
more closely, "that made a chalk mark
on the gate post when you wont out of
the yard after I gave you a meal of
vittles last year?"
"I dunno, ma'am," replied Tuffold
Knutt. "I had a spell of sickness an lost
my memory after I was here last year."
"If you lost your memory, how do you
know you was here at all?" she retorted,
preparing to shut the door.
"You are throwin me out, ma'am," pro-
tested 'Tuffold Knutt majestically, "on
a mere technicality."
The Wisdom of Youth.
I told the boy the old fable of the atm
and the wind -how the aun, shining stead-
fastly, had caused the wayfarer to take
off his cloak, which thing the wind,
though blustering its utmost, had quite
failed to do.
"The fable," I said, "teaches the su-
perior efficacy of gentle methods." •
"But," said the boy, "perhaps It was
the humidity and not the heat which led
the wayfarer to lay aside his cloak!"—
