That Is tho thing which puzzles the observer nnd throus him off the right track. In that country all tho poor nnd Indigent have little hiding places, where they put nu ay their little treasures and guai d thein, Hatching their growth and never draulng ftom them, even in the face of famine or dishonor, danger or death. All mound them and above them aie the proud and the Tich, who do just as their ancestots did, and re main exactly the same as they were: that Is to say, Insatiable hoarders, sus picious anil ciuel misers. They hide their gold In the anils of old foits and In citadels, and add to It fiom genera tion to generation, fiom centtuy to cen tury Like that of Hatpagnon, their beloved tteasuus possess for them charms far more fascinating than those of their immortal hourls and of their enchanting perls. Tho persistence of the Maharajah of Slndhl In petitioning the Iirltlsh gov ernment to give back to him the fort ics.s of fluallor is perhaps lemembered a petslsteneo that seemed sttango In deed, not to say (suspicious, because Ouallor was not one of the holy places, like so many others in India. After numerous pUItlons and Intrigues the mahu.ijah .it last won his case.

In the ptcldeiicvor prnilnceof Bom bay It Is estimated that there are three hundred millions ot francs In gold sov eielgiw uhleh are preserved with ex tieme care, not only on account of their intilnsle value, but on account of the fact, without counting the Image of nt.
