Living on a Western ranch, working hard, he gradually grew strong. He became Assistant Secretary of the Navy, but with the outbreak of the Spanish-American war he resigned and went to Cuba to fight at the head oi the “ Rough Riders." At one time Roosevelt was Police Commissioner oi New York City. ‘‘Come to a quilting Dee. tnis quilt, Friendship Fan, seems to say, for It’s one so easily pieced you. or a gathering of friends, can quickly do a quantity of blocks.

Not only was he a bearcat for taking the waters twice a day at any and all temperatures, but a guide book as well in matters per taining to history following the dawn o f the Christian era. He was at his best when reviewing the in troduction of Buddhism into Korea, China and Japan. A t 118 degrees Fahrenheit, seated on a hot rock, his skin glowing like a boiled lob ster’s, he was 100 per cent when discussing the past. “ Actual dates never meant any thing to me,” he said, “ and 1 don’t think they do to most people. One hundred, three hundred, five hun dred years one way or another is near enough. What I ’m interested in is legend and mythology, if you get what I mean. Now, take the Bud dhist religion and the story of how it came to this part of the world. Swell stuff I call it and worth tell ing, if you don’t mind listening. It ■hows how that thing called faith takes root and becomes permanent, belief that lime cannot shake from its foundations. Monks Camp in a Tree. “ Anyhow, 53 Buddhist monks shook from their sandied feet the dust o f India, reaching, after a year’s pilgrimage, the peninsula of Korea, now called Chosen. Making their way to the northeastern sec tion In the region of the Diamond mountains, they came to Yutenji. I was there In 1U18 and know’ the country thoroughly, but don’t get the Idea that I guarantee the legend which was handed out to me. Ac cept or reject it, as you please. I t o member, however, that the preva lence of Buddhism in Korea and its spread to China and Japan Is found ed on what occurred at the time to which I refer. 1 “W asn’t this information to be P H O T O G R A P H Y W ILL VOU DROP UP TO THE WAQOEN’S OFFICE ?

Appears to have been handed down from century to century, along with a thousand other tales, many of which I have heard. But of the bunch, this one is the best “ As 1 was saying, the 53 monks, fed up on touring, finally came to a mammoth spring, besidr which grew one whale of a tree, with branches extending into a considerable area of space. In its welcome shade the monks rested, bathed in the pool and had a pow-wow. Night came down. ‘W e may as well pitch our tents and stay here for a spell,’ said the head monk, ‘but not on the ground. Safety first, in a strange country. L e t’s climb the tree and sleep in its branches.’ Dragon Disturbs Sleep. “ About midnight, as the monks, all spread out on the leafy branches, were sleeping like one man, and dreaming o f India, a dra gon, with flaming eyes, a long tongue and a spine of sharp prongs suddenly appeared on the opposite side of the pool and began to bel low in thunderous tones, inviting the Buddhists to come down and get theirs. Nothing doing the tree suited the lodgers all right, all right, and that was that. What does the dragon do but cause a hurricane to come romping down.” To all intents and purposes, the history of Buddhism in Korea should at this point have come to a conclusion; it was quite abrupt To lighten the suspense, my inform ant slid from his hot rock, deflated his lungs and sank from view, re turning rather playfully after a few seconds and blowing like a pup seal. Monks Vanquish Dragon. “ Well, sir,” he went on, swiping the hot water from his jowls, “ it certainly looked bad for those 53 monks when the tree left for parts reclining or seated ir, the same posi tions they had occupied in the trei before the blast, and with no visible means of support. It was a sock in the eye for the dragon. “ Into the pool belcw, the monks cast prayer scrolls and magic gad gets that caused the water to boll violently and to till the air with steam.
