Everyone stands, there are no seats ; three fourths of the worshippers are women, in fact it is exceptional to see so many men, who, if it were an ordinary Sunday- morn- ing service, would not be present. The priests, bishops and acolytes are legion, white sad purple surphoed ; the choir con- sisting of a hundred or more nude voiees accompanied by a powerful organ played by same invisible hand lends a strange bewil- dering charm to the dim,te@s. The incense wafted about by the bearers, the solemn re- sponse from the maw of human medley, al- most indescribable in the &akaess, all teed to make us feel • fascinating religions fervor although our sympathies are not with the form of worship. Emerging from the dark- ness to dazzling sunlight we prooeed to a large open court yard paved with inscribed stones marking the places where lie the bodies of n.tR!'EIA)N.A'S GREAT MEN from time so far distant in the dim past the,. neither letters nor words are legible. Here and there only a stone shows the indistinct tracing of a date in the l2th, 13th or 14th century-. At one corner of this facade is a door leading into the monastery. Entrance is permitted only to those of the male persuasion. About s year ago when visiting an old monastery in Baht, north- ern Brazil, my wife together with other Lidice was painfully reminded of the in- feriority of the sex, and the unpardonable sin committed by mother Eve when she in- duoed the innoosot Adam to partake of the apple. We had noiselessly, with uncovered heads and admiring gars " done " the finest specimen of decorative gilding and embel- lishing in South American Cathedrals wben, thinking an open doorway with attractive tiled facades beyond, was but a part of the cathedral, we entered and soon were intent on examining some strange old encaustic tile work covered with quaint drawings lining the walls of the Hautes. All of a sudden we saw three • or four monks running towards es shouting and clamoring at us. and shaking their robes as a woman does when she wishes to scare away • brood of chickens or young ducks. We stood amazed. Nooe of us spoke Portuguese, bot the worthy reclaim who acted as spokes- man exclaimed in Spanish that NO WOMAN SHOULD DEMOCRATS THE HOLE PRECIS., Ran. We were hospitably invited to go to any part of the monastery we felt inclined, but we must first torn out our women folk. This particular institution is so exacting on this point that no fetnale animal is kept about the premises and when animal food is eaten it must have been of the male sex. There is only one other tnoaam cry, it b acid, in the Christian world where snob formality is so closely observed, that is an Wand in the Grecian Archipelago owned sad inhabits! by monks only and their Hale beasts of lourthen.
