Mohuwinerian Sects.
Mohammedans divide themselves Into
two principal sects? Shiah and Sunul,
the Persians representing the bulk ot
the former, the Turks of the latter.
The chief poiuts on which they differ
are the condition of the soul after
death and the succession of caliphs.
"The Suual belief is that there is one
Immortal God, whose works are with
out beginning or end. and that he will
be visible to the souls of the blessed,
vblle the Shiahs deny the immortality
of the soul and maintain that the co
existent principles of Zoroaster will
forever contend for the mastery."
With regard to the prophet's succes
sors, the Suunls claim that the lawful
successor of Mohammed was Abu
Bi'kr and after him Omar, Osman and
I All. nephew and son-in-law of Moham
med. The Shiahs. however, reject the
first three and hold that Ali was the
only legitimate successor. Shiahs pray
but three times a day and enjoin pil
grimages to Xejef. Kerbela, Kazimaln,
Meshed (Persia), Samara and Kum as
well as to Mecca and Medina. Sunnls
make pilgrimages only to the two lat
ter cities and pray tive times a day.
From this it can be readily understood
that the circumstances of the Turks
being in possession of the shrines of
Nejef (Meshed Alii. Kaziiualu and Ker
liola is most displeasing to devout
Shiahs.? Blackwood's Magazine.
star With It.
The first day mother sent me to
school I went home at recess, thinking
i school was out. As I have grown older
{ find that a whole lot of people did the
same thing, and the sad part of the af
fair is that too many of us never went
back. In life be careful that you don't
go home at recess. If you start to learn
a trade or profession, stay by it and
master it. Don't chase away at recess.
If you have a business, attend to It.
Don't go home at recess. This going
home at recess has sent many a busi
ness man into bankruptcy. It has
ca used mothers' tears to flow and
mother hearts to ache. It has made
crusty old bachelors and sour old maids.
It has filled worlds with Ignorance and
made barren deserts of fertile plains.
Going home at recess means that you
have fallen asleep at the switch and
your train has plunged into the ditch.
Always stay until school is out? Os

Tlie -ilr of London.
There is no fresh air iu the heart o f
London, according to the conclusions
of a recent Investigator. He says: "No
evidence of ozone was anywhere ap
parent except at Brownswood park, In
the northeast. It was from the north
east quarter the wind was blowing,
and the air had lost all trace of ozone
before it had reached Hyde park. At
Bushey park, although practically a
country district, no ozone was present
in the air. London had not only ab
stracted the goodness out of the air
that swept over It, but had added to It
the exhalations from the breath and
bsdies of millions of human beings and
of tens of thousands of animals. Per
sons living within a one or two mile
radius of Charing Cross cannot have
fresh air entering their i dwellings at
any time."
I'ursee Burial Customs.
A Bombay correspondent, writing of
the burial customs of the Parsees, says:
"The approach of that transition we
call death is a signal for the relatives
to leave the presence of the dying one,
the priest aloue remaining to whisper
Zend-Avesta precepts into his ear. He
In turn passes out of the room and ad
mits a dog, who Is trained to gaze
steadily into the face of the dying one.
A dog is accounted the only living
creature that can terrorize the evil
spirits, so the 'sas-dld,' or 'dog stare,'
Is the last sight the Parsee has on
earth. No human shadow must Inter
vene; otherwise the guardian virtue of
the dog's gaze is annulled."
