John Buskin, the English aatbo Vt
critic and social reformer, had a d«n-
Uar morbidity overcome him vblle
sitting for his portrait, a writer lr the
Kansas City Times recalls. Tumlnf
suddenly to Pante Gabriel Rowettt; 1 |
for whom he .was posing, he declared
he bad lost all faith In revealed re
ligion, that he regarded all he had al- .
ready Written as bosh, that he sbooW
write nothing for some years (one
biographer says ten), and that be
should then vigorously poll to pieces
all his previous writings.
It Is a fact that nearly all of Bus
kin’s best books were Written prior to
the time of this alleged change of
opinion, 1862, but he published
least two well known works as
thereafter as 1865, when “Sesame
Lilies” appeared, and In 1885-9,
“Praeterita” saw the light A preface
to a book In 1871 gave the first public
Intimation of his revised Ideals. __ 1
“Common” Prayer Book
-Didn't Sait Occarion
The late E. C. Dewitt who died
unknown In New York worth $85,000,-
000, did not believe In climbing. He
said one day to a New York reporter:
“Climbers' are always coarse and
stupid. A Sioux City climber dedded
to turn Episcopalian, for all the bang-
up people In town went to the Episco
palian church.
“So he—visited • bookstore and
asked for the hymnals. Bibles and
other literature he would need In bis
new faith.
“The salesman laid a pile of black-
bound books before him, and as be
read the titles he seemed well enough
pleased till be came to the loft title .
- at all, the Book'of Common Prayer.
This volume he handed back to die
salesman with a shake of the head.

Modem Pilgrim Rites
Pious Moslems who make the pil
grimage to Mecca go seven times
round the Kaaba, or tomb of the
prophet reciting prayers and rever
ently kissing the Black Stone. They
then proceed to the sacral spring-of
Zem-Zem, which la said to be the foun
tain Jehovah opened In the desert for
Hagar and Ishmnel. There each pil
grim dips Into the water two white
shirts held together by strings (no
pins are permitted for that purpoot).
These garments must be dried In jfre
court of the mosque, and afterwlkd
are laid aside as the burial dotbea of
their owners. According to tradition
a shroud that has been soaked In the
water of Zem-Zem will protect Its
wearer against the fiery heat of tke
Last Judgment.
