When tho water renched his shoulder he was shouting, "One thou sand rupees!" When enveloped to hit neck, with death staring him In the face, he yelled: "Help, help!

In the Malay peninsula, after n gen eral propitiatory service boa been held ns nn "npology" to the rice for cutting it, tho "rice soul" Is diligently sought. First tho spot where the best rice grows Is selected; then seven stems arc chosen, ench having seven Joints. Within this sncred bundle resides tho soul of tho whole precious field, nnd, dressed In swnddllng clothes like n live Infant, It Is borne home In a basket and tenderly, reverently, placed on u new sleeping mat. After the rice harvest In Ceylon tho priests take a little old god called Mnrell down to tho river. A hole la dug where the water Is shallow, and Into this Is crammed n bag of dry rice, with the god placed on top.

Los An geles Times. Luck In Golf. Luck, as will readily be understood, Is n factor that enters very largely Into golf. Perhaps the most notnblo case on record Is that of Jamie An derson when competing for the chain ploiiHlitp at 1'restwlck tn 1878. He had Just teed his ball for the seventeenth drive when n little girl standing among the spectators remarked that ho had unconsciously placed It Just In front of the proper line. Althougl nobody else had noticed tho fact, this proved on examination by the rofereo to bo correct. Thereupon Anderson teed his ball again In a fresh position well behind the line and made a drive which landed him In tho hole and eventually enabled him to win the match. If, however, he had played It from the original spot he would have been penalized n stroke and havo lost the championship. Clearly, then, lucl on the links It somelhlng to be taken Into consideration whatever noiidollcv ers may say to tho contrary. Halley's Magazine, What He Was Allowed to Do. A Presbyterian delegate who was accustomed to being sent to dominium tlonal conventions to extend fraternal greetings was delegated to the genernl conference of tho Methodist Episcopal church. Rising to speak, he said It was nl ways nti Interesting study to him to nolo tho different receptions necorded hint nt the conventions of tho various denominations. "Whenever I nttend n convention of the Episcopal church, for example," tald ho, "I find I can do anything I like except preach In the pulpit. When I go before tho Haptlst church I am accorded every privilege except thnt of taking communion. And," ho snld, with a smile, "when I nppenr among the Methodists I notice I am allowed every privilege except taking the col lection!" Indies' Home Journal. Housekeeping In Papua, European housekeeping In Papua Is charmingly simple. Everything nrrlv ed In n tin, for tho most part ready for us. Meat, milk, butter, vegetables all stood lu tins In neat rows In tho store room. A diet of tinned stuffs grow rather monotonous at times, but wo were nblo occasionally to vary It. Sometimes n man would arrive with n live turtle, which he would sell for two sticks of tobacco, costing threepence. The wretched turtle would bo killed nnd cut up, but would still Insist on quivering lu n most realistic manner oven when plnced on the nro to cook, Then, too, If the seaso'i wns n good one, the kitchen would bo found lined wllli Joints of wallabies, nnd It would bo hard to know what to do with ho much fresh meat.
