KHALED is good genius-One of the genii
familiar in Eastern allegory and story. In
the execution of divine vengeance he Stays
an Indian prince who wishes TO marry,
under false pretcnces, theSultan's beautiful
| daughter. For this he is - assume human
form and be subject TO the ills that flesh IS
heir to, except that he is not to have a
soul as other humans have unless he can
succeed IN winning the love of the Sui
tans daughter, whose false suitor he

want of a soul does not seem to be much
of an impediment TO him, as he wins the
love and confidence of men, performs
great deeds, and rises TO high honor.
