In tho lazy little village Of Blidah,
some years before tho French invasion,
there lived an honest Moor. named after
his father, Sidi lakdAr. but TO whom the
villagers had given tho name Of tho
ldler. Tho Moors arc known 70 be the
most indolcnt people In the world, but
those Of the village Of Blidah were con.
sidcrcd tho --LATEST OF their couniryincn.
It was perhaps to be attributed to the
dangerous perfumes OF oranges and
LINES which hung over tho town like q
sweet scented cloud.
But among all who lived In thisla
OF lazy towns no ono could come up 10
sidi Lakdar for downright idlencas aud
nonchalanco. The worthy man had Gle
waited his vico 10 tho height Of q pro-
fcssion. Other people might DO en-
broidcrorr, cafe owners, spice merchants
and 40 on-but he was an idlcr.
When his father died no inherited a
small garden under the ramparts OF tho
town. surrounded by low white walls
falling into decay. Tho gate was 20 en-.
tangled by weeds that II could not DO
closed. There woro few ig and bana.
