08 THE CENTRAL NEWS. PERKASIE, PA. INDIA-ITS PEOPLE. to the Student, Geographer, Historian and Christian. By J.

Godshall, of Blooming Glen. Few countries have a more mixed population, few have been been 80 frequeutly 'invaded, or so often the promised land of immigrant tribes and adveuturers. 'The Aboriginies. At the dawn of history, more three thousand years ago, two distinet races are seen struggling with otber iu India. The one, a great of invaders, who entered from northwest -tall, fair, having Caucasian features, and mental as well physical qualities of a high Their civilization was considerably vanced, and their social organization.

though simple. was strong. The other race had already spread throughout the land, and was divided into a great variety of tribes. They, too, in yet more remote ages, had successive invaders, having little common with each other; some 'ing far inferior- physically, mentally, and socially--to others. of them knew letters, SO that knowledge of them is derived by ference from what their are, or from the prejudiced testimony of their conquerors.

The latter called themselves or spected," and their adversaries Dasyus and Dasas They speak of them contemptuously "without "disturbers of sacrifice," gods," "without rites," "gross feeders on flesh," "lawless," "noseless, or small nosed," and in the course time as "monsters," mons." There is little doubt these earlier inhabitants were fiercer, darker in complexion, shorter, comely in feature, and ruder in manmanners than their Aryan invaders. From these two stocks have sprung more than nine-tenths of the inhabitants of India. It is important therefore to indicate whence they came who they were. Non-Aryan In pre-historic times various bands of emigrants tered from the northwest and northeast. Modern philosophy analyzed them into three great divisions- -the Thibets-Burman, the Kolaries, and the Dravedian.

The former dwelt with the forefathers of the Maydians and Chinese in Central Asia the latter came from the same great hive of humanity in ancient times, but farther west, in Scythia, and some yet more to the west. Aryans. -There dwelt also in that vast, strange region of Central Asia, great Aryan race, which broke into two divisions, one of which migrated westward, the other into India. One branch of the former founded the Persian Empire; another built Athens and became the Greek race; third went on to found the Roman Empire in Italy; and others penetrated into Spain, France, Germany and Britain; the other great division settled in the fruitful region south of the Himalayas, along the sources of the Junne and Ganges, and gradually spread southward and eastward, pressing the weaker aborigines into the wooded ranges, or to the extremities the land, or absorbing them into their own communities. But in various parts of the country the earlier habitants resisted the invaders and held their own.

The Bhuis and Dangas of Gujerat and Malma the Santals and Dorns the Central Provinces the Kola, Khonda and Saurias of Orissa: the Todas, Kotas, Buddagars, Korumbass and other tribes scattered over the Nilghenres and Western Ghats, are clearly of very diverse and non-Aryan origin. Their features, languages, superstitions, manners and customs make this abundantly clear. The great bulk of the population of the Deccan is of aboriginal descent. It is supposed by one that though, like others, the latter issued out of Scythia, they were farther advanced in civilization and came posterior to other tribes, expelling them from their first possessions as they were at a subsequent period by the Aryans. Their distinct origin and powerful influence is seen the fact that they have given a group of five great cultivated languages, The Tamil, Telugu, Malayalim and Tulava, with seven of inferior repute, to 46,000,000 people.

and Greco-Bactrian invad-1 contributed to the population of India for more than 300 years before and after the Christian era. Hordes of former spread along the Indus, then passing eastward, settled in the centre of the rich Gangetic Valley. The kingdom of which Sakya Muni (who gave Bhuddhism to almost third of the human race) was a prince, supposed to have been ruled by a family of this stock. The Jats, who form almost half the population of the Punjab, are probably Scythian origin. (To be continued.) KELLERS CHURCH William H.

Trauch, of near this place, met with quite an accident on last Thursday morning while in the act of killing hogs. As the first hog was raised to the beam Mr. Trauch had a trace in his hands to fasten the gambrel, but before it was fastened the pulley slipped, leaying the hog fall to the ground, the fall of which forced the hook of the trace through his right hand, entering the inside of the hand at the intersection of the two middle fingers. The left hand had an ugly made by a large nail in the gambrel, which was used to keep the hog spread. Dr.

Nonamaker was called in to dress the wounds. The patient is doing nicely. Saved Her Child's Life. "In three weeks our chubby little boy was changed by pneumonia almost to a skeleton" writes Mrs. W.

Watkins, of Pleasant City, O. "A terrible cough set in, that, in spite of a good doctor's treatment for several weeks, grew worse every day. We then used Dr. King's New Discovery for consumption and our darling was soon sound and well. We are sure this grand medicine saved his life." Millions know it's the sure cure for coughs, colds and all lung diseases.

Trial bottles free. PROFIT The matter of feed is of tremendous importance to the farmer. Wrong feeding is loss. Right feeding is profit. The up-to-date farmer knows what to feed his cows to get the most milk, his pigs to get the most pork, his hens to get the most eggs.

Science. But how about the children? Are they fed according to science, a bone food if bones are soft and undeveloped, a flesh and muscle food if they are thin and weak and a blood food if there is anemia? Scott's Emulsion is a mixed food; the Cod Liver Oil in it makes flesh, blood and muscle, the Lime and Soda make bone and brain. It is the standard cientific food for delicate children.
