A church missionary had a letter
recently from a convict begging him
to reform the writer's wife, who waa

The convict—who is serving a long

matter, because, as he said: “It waa
no credit to him to receive letters
from such a place as prison.”

Ion, abaster of various hues, mother-
of pearl, malachite, gold stones and
tiger stones. Rubles, sapphires and
emeralds, If ever they were really
used, have long since disappeared, for
the Taj lias been ransacked more than
once, the Jals denuding it of most of
Its riches, including the massive silver
floors which originally barred the on-
trance.
Shall Jelian was deposed by Ills son,
\urungzeb—that mischievous vandal
who wantonly destroyed so many of
India's architectural beauties, and |
left but one indifferent building, the
mosque at llenares, to bear his name
to succeeding generations—in the year
lt>:>S, and imprisoned in Agra Fort un-
til his death eight years later. It is
said that it was Shalt Jehan's Inten-
tion to have erected a companion moil- j
ument uf black marble, but of less
magnificence, on the opposite shore of
the Jumna river to receive his own re-
mains. II this be true, by th? usurpa-
tion of the throne a great work of art
was lost to India; thus, also, was Aur-
ungtzeb s evil influence felt, not only
In the destruction of works ills father
had actually accomplished, but of
those lie might have accomplished. As
we drew nearer to the shrine, the
riches that lay embedded in its walls,
arches and spandrels revealed them-
selves to view. They emblazoned its
facade with floral designs and scrolls
and with precepts from the Koran,
and each opening admitting light and
air was of delicate fretted marble. We
went through a gateway pierced in a
traceried marble screen, thence
through another beyond into the in-
most recesses of Hie Taj—the Cham-
ber of the Tombs. It was long before
the eyes, blinded by the reflected
glare of the setting sun, became ac-
customed to the gloom; but ns vision
slowly penetrated it, there emerged
from the shades an octagonal fliigreed
screen of exquisite workmanship, a
filmy floral web of marble, which', as
the darkness melted, became opales-
cent with inlaid stones of the richest

or rnr ranse.
It is well that Agra is deep in the
heart of India, and that the traveler
from either East or West, bent on
really seeing something of the land,
must perforce tarry at many places
ere he reaches the old Mogul capital.
The country's wonders are thus seen
In their proper order- -the lesser ones
first. The architectural glories of the
city are many, but it is the Taj Mahal
that makes of Agra an Indian Mecca.
One enters among the charming for-
malities of its old Persian garden in
pensive mood, for it seems of another
world than ours—the garden of a land
of dreams. Here t^li sounds are si-
lenced; the air Is heavy with the fra-
grance of the shrubs, the flower-beds
and the cypress trees. Even the gen-
tle plash of the fountains does not of-
ten disturb the soft peace encompass-
ing this shrine—sanctuary of the fair-
est romance of Hindustan. Perfect iu
its proportions, almost unearthly in Us
beauty, it is no monument raised for
arrogant , but is
the mirror of a king's heart.
It Is the reflection of a husband's de-
votion to a dead wife's memory;'it is
the enduring record, enriching both
art and romance, of the love story of
one who held the best the world had
to offer as scarcely good enough to
consecrate the lifeless clay of her who
bore him seven children, and had been
his wife for fourteen happy years.
The Taj enclosure Is therefore hal-
lowed ground, and the story of the
shrine rt|jis as follows; The Mogul
emperor, Shah Jehan, stricken with
grief at the death of ids beautiful Per-
sian queen. Munitaz Mahal, the Cho-
sen of the Palace, vowed he would
erect over her body a mausoleum
which should be pure and beautiful as
his dead queen’s heart; the fairest
building that ever adorned the earth,
just as she itad been the fairest wom-
an that ever trod it. 'Phis exquisite
creation in marble is witness to the
sacredness of his word. _ , ,, . , , .

BANISH THE SAND SOAP.
Other Things Much Better for Cleans-
ing of Kitchen Utensils.
It is the custom of many housewives
to use sand soap for scouring and
cleaning almost anything in tin or
agate ware in their kitchen.
This is a great mistake, as sand soap
is injurious to some kinds of kitchen
ware. A bottle of ammonia and a bot-
tle of kerosene are very useful for
cleaning some of the utensils which
Will not stand such a strenuous rub-
bing.
For instance, if you will put a few
drops of ammonia in your frying pan it
will work wonders. You can also put
it in the coffee pot occasionally when
you are scalding it.

should lie wiped with kenosene, as the
sand soap will in time wear away the
