SAINT AND PEOPLE.

[FROM A CORRESPONDENT OF THE TIMES" IN JAPAN.]

It was the 21st of the menth, and at Kyoto the 21st is Kobo Daishi's day. Now Kobe Daishi, as the curious may easily learn, was a very great saint. He lived 1,100 years ago, and in all the Buddhist calendar of Japan there is none that equals hi in fame, or in appeal to the heart of the common people. His name while living way. Kukai; the title Kobo Daish the Great Teacher Spreading Abroad the Law was conferred after his death. He was many things at once, and his 60 years of life were filled with preternatural activity. The story is told of his miraculous birth and of how he came into the warld with hands folded as if in prayer, and his entire career is enrusted with legends of the super- natural Born in A.D. 774, he entered the priesthood in 793 and was sent to China rs a student 11 years later. Thenzo, in 806, he returned, bringing back with kim a large number of religious books and objects of devotion, as well as the. tenets of the Shingon seci of. Buddhism, which is much concerned with mystical formule and magic. He is not more famous as a preacher and propagator of the faith than as a sculptor, painter, and caligraphist.

A. personage so many-sided appeals naturally to the popular imagination, but doubtless it is the mystical and miraculous element that has given to the appeal its. extensive vogue. In 310 Kobo Daishi was installed as abbot of the monastery of Toji, in Kyoto, and thither flock the people to do hinr reverence on the 21st of every month. "It is a thing you should not miss," said a Japanese friend. Toji is a very high church, and the common people come to the temple from all direc tions, a long way round. If you care for such things at all you could stay and watch them for hours."

THE GREAT MONASTERY.

FOUL BREATH.

.....

WOMEN'S GREATEST MISFORTUNE.

The old saying that "distance lends enchantment” was never more aptly to the point than when applied to those people whose breath is laden with evil smelling odours. Many persons appear most attractive at a distance, but produce a feeling of pity and disgust when close to because of the condition of their breath. For instance, it makes little difference how beautiful a woman may be, or how charming her manner it her breath is foul, her charm is gone and she is at a dis- advantage when ever she comes in contact with other people. Foul breath in women arouses in man a feeling of repugnance and a desire to get out of the company of such a woman as quickly as possible, and even women will avoid her. It is therefore important for every woman. who values her personal attraction to take such care of herself that this unpleasant and unnecessary complaint is avoided or corrected. Men, women and children who are troubled with this complaint will drive their friends away more rapidly than any other affiction. People do not realise their breaths are bad because they are like those who are constantly employed among paints and varnishes they get used to what is to others a most offensive smell. In nearly all cases this condition is due to Constipation and a disordered Stomach, and a coated Toogue, slight Headache, and feverishness are the sure signs that the digestive organs are retaining quantities of impurities from which the system should be free, thereby causing the Breath to become charged with the foul odour. In Dr. Morses' Indian Root Pills there will be found a searching, cleansing remedy which will drive the masses of decaying corruption tha. poison the Blood and contaminate the breath from the system through the regular channels. They get at the cause as no other remedy does. They get at the the foundation of the complaint. They give you clean bowels, a healthy stomach, a lively liver, and blood that is rich and red. They are safe, sure and reliable remedy, and will prevent many of the complaints so common if taken once or twice a week to keep the system in a healthy condition. They are purely vegetable, and their action is not accompanied by any nauscous or griping sensation, but is mild and gentle.

For all complaints arising from Imperfect Digestion and Impure Blood these Pilis arc unexcelled. They are a Perfect Blood Purifier a positive and permanent ure for Billousness, Indigestion, Constipation, Headaches," Sallow Complexion, Liver and Kidney Troubles, Piles, Pimples, Boils and Blotches and for Female

WONSHIP AND TRAFFIC..

The temple was founded in the eighth century, but the existing buildings date from the middle of the 17th. They are not elaborately ornamented, but plain and rather rude in style, with mud floors and plastered walls, the pillars and beams coloured a crude red with oxide of iron On ordinary days they are said to look dreary, but to-day they were transformed and set off by the dense-crowd of wor- shippers in holiday attire. And not these mly, for everything that a crowd could want or attract was there also in the spacious grounds. Nothing seemed excludel, and much thriving indo was done. But for the absence of the book. maker and all trace of the purely rowdy, the scene might almost be likened to Epsom Downs on the Derby Day. (Yet we heard a whispered warning against pickpockets) Hampstead Heath on Bank Holiday would be a poor comparison. Not a representative of the upper classes could be found; it was the populace, puro and simple, combining pleasure, business, and religious observance.
