BATHERS IN THE SACRED RIVER Grim at times is the Baghmutti, with the groans of the dying, brought many miles for their final penance, and litwith the funeral pyres ofthe dead, who are cremated on its banks. But the usual morning scene is more suggestive of a gay watering place; for here the swarthy men and the olive-skinned women, dressed in bright colors and wearing flowers in their hair, come to bathe-aceremony that has both areligious and a sanitary motive.
