W THE TALE THAT ECHO TOLD By John T. Troth =â€"-â€"T___â€".___â€"_â€"â€"-â€":-"/ The ancient'viliage of Burb (as all travelers toward the icy passes of Knorrgap well know) lies a half day's journey beyond Gaw. on the left bank of the River Gurg, from the incessant murmuring of whose waters over their silver-pebbled shallows it takes its name. And a very long time ago there dwelt in that place a most skill- ful physician, named, if I have re- membered the tale aright, Men Yu, the fame of whose vast learning had penetrated even as far as purple~roof- ed and gorgeous Sudaban, and his [proud neighbors never wearied of pro‘ l‘phesying that he would some day be 'called as court physician to the great lKing. In his youth Men Yu had iovedand courted Yonda, the beautiful daughter of the King‘s equerry, and, finally win- .ning her from his rival, Gorlon. had married her, they two living together ?most happily for three years. Then '[came to that part of the world the u 1year that no man forgets even to this distant day, when the fetid breath of ’ the white fever was borne northward on humid breezes from the far jungles of Umb, It kissed, among many others, Yonda, who. in spite of all Men Yu's wisdom, wasted away and died in the hushed space between night fade and dawn glow. One winter evening many years later when Men Yu, resting from his laborious studies, was lost in thoughts (as ever at such times) of the beauty and goodness of Yonda, there came a knocking at his door. Withdrawing the oaken bars he admitted a man at- tired in gorgeous silks of green and gold, and from the manner of his dress at once knew him to be from a far eastern country which lay, men said, even beyond the fiery plains'of Hun- thir, and those of Gerst. He proved, indeed, to be a merchant of storied Am-bur, whose far-gleaming roots are reported to be slated with nothing less , than the burnished scales of golden dragons overcome in old, forgotten battles, and be dealt in mysterious wares and strange enchantments cal- culated to divert the mind and beguile the soul away from all sad thoughts. His trafficking was carried on secretly for fear of the anger of the priests, rwho had great jealousy of the occult powers of his merchandise. Men Yu had often heard of these things and was glad to see'vrthem with his own eyes, but steadfastly refused to buy. saying that he had no wish to be di- verted either from his labors or from his sorrow. At last the merchant. seeing that he was obdurate. confided that he had yet to revealthe most truly amazingthing of all. Feeling in his turban. he brought forth a tiny. violet»coiored shell. within whose labyrinthine con- volutions he asserted there dwelt :1 spirit. a more Voice, called Echo. who, while invisible to any eye. was cup- able of reproducing. as on u veritable mirror .r. sound. all that had {Itllen upon tl‘.‘ ear of man since the worii was but a little pellet of moist may. rolled between the thumb :a1.i fore finger of God. .Ieu Yu was :: ~:ncnl- ously interested at hearing il‘ un'i asked the merchant for proof or ..s in credible claims. The latter thereupon commanded Echo, and the physicion l tat once heard. quite plainly. the con- , fused bubble of strange tongues in the ‘s-treets and bazaars of fur-off, Eastern icities, the tinkle of silvcr-tongued and the weird long-drawn cries of priests praying for their minaurets at I the going down of the sun. These wonders, and especially the last, convinced Men Yu that Echo would indeed prove :1 most invaluable and diverting companion, and further. he saw the possibility of disoovering through her voice many of the lost secrets and mysteries of the past, so he inquired of the merchant his price. The man in green and gold thcrcupon named remarkable conditions under which alone could he think of parting with this the chiefest of his treasures. Many and wondrous were the re- velations unveiled by the obedient voice of Echo. and without parallel be- came the fume of Men Yu throughout all the then known world. By the ir- refutable evidence of conversations hoary with the breath of centuries and unrecorded save within the memory of Echo he mastered, one by one. the moot problems that had vexed the wisest men of his time. But, improbable as it may appear. although Men Yu never ceased to dwell affectionately upon his memories of incomparable Yondo. years passed before it occured to him to bid Echo resurrect from the silence of the tomb the voice of his love as he had delight- ed to hear it during the cruelly brief years she had been with him. One wild, stormy night, however, when he was more than usually lonely, he thought of this new wonder and joy- fully commanded the shell to give up those dearly cherished sounds. Echo was unaccountably silent at first and, when he insisted, seemed to speak sad- ly and reluctantly. Then, as Men Yu listened s-o hungarily, he heard Yon- da's own voice in conversation, not with himself, but with Gorion, his rival, and through her tones- there breathed a smoldering fire of passion, such as even he had never heard there- 1n. Finally Men Yu rose and, first seal- ing the door and windows of his room with wax, took certain magical powâ€" ders from sundry vials, blending them together in the form of a pyramid in a little earthern bowl. Upon its sum~ mit he laid the violet shell, and then powders here and there with a blaz- ing splint from the fire. As dense volumes of pungent smoke arose from the smoldering heap, he addressed Echo in these words: “It is known to me that your voice may not wholly be destroyed, but. for the peace of mind of all the- ensuing ages, I will curb your too faithful tongue, and return to utter oblivion the secrets of the dead past!” 5â€".â€" ll/ _/ Rightoi Bag of Flourâ€"“You're nothing but a measly little cake of yeast." but I‘ll Yeast Cakeâ€"“Yes, raise out of you all right -â€"â€"â€"- roâ€"â€"â€"- MONEY ORDERS.

Borax is used in every household»â€" in talcum powders, eye lotions, medi- cinal powders, and soups. And yet. four thousand years ago. it was a irarity almost as precious as gold. In the days of Babylon the only known sources were in a few snli‘I ,marshcs in the Gobi Desert. north of‘ |the Himalayas. It was collected byIi .nativss. Small Ililalayan sheep car- fried it slung in bags round their necks ‘ ldown the steep mountain-sist intoi ilndin, and it was then taken by camels ‘ to Eastern Europe. It was used by goidsmiths for clean- ling the surface of molten gold, Only iby means of borax could the crude inictal be refined and worked into rings, amulets, and lurcnstpintes. Nowadays the United States proâ€" duces more than 40.000 tons a year. Thirty years ago its richest, source was a Californian desert called the Death Valley~a place believed to be the hottest and driest spot on earth. A company supported by British capi- tal worked the mines. Until they built a railway ten years later the produce was hauled by mules over 165 miles of uninhabited desert. ‘ A new borax mine. believed to con- -n A..-.. l tain ten million tons, has been dis- covered in Nevada. The world will now have far more than it wants. un- less new uses are discovered for what was once a rarity. o o‘â€" China’s Millions.
