Probably q Pu.-Up job.

Two men went into . restaurant on
Adams street yesterday and sat down at
q table presided over by solemn.
gloomy-looking functionary in black.
One of the two merely ordered mutt
ton-chops and cup of coffee, but the
other looked carefully through the bill
of fare, laid it down, reflected few
moments, and said:
Bring me bunch of toothpicks.
"Yes, sab"
They were brought and the solemn
waiter stood at his elbow, looking of
into vacancy while the man picked his
teeth.
Another careful inspection of the bill
of fare resulted in the order:
Bring me some ice-cream."
The ice-cream was brought and dis
posed of in leisurely way, the bill of
fare was examined again from top to
bottom, laid down az before and
cogitated upon, and an order for lemon
cream pie was given to the solemn
waiter.
The pie was brought and eaten in the
same calm, methodical way, the bill OF
fare studied again. and an order given
for stewed peas and sliced cucumbers.
The imperturbable waiter stood re-
spectfully by while these were slowly
deyoured.
@You may bring me some roast beef
and brown potatoes, announced the
guest. after another prolonged study of
the bill Of fare.

These were brought and laid before

was subjected to another scrutiny.

various parts OF the building, put i'm
mense fountains here and hang gigantic
Turkish inscriptions there, you may
have . mazed idea of how the mosque
of Santa Sophia looks when entering.
You will wander for hours through
the corridors of its columns, finding
new beauties at every step. You will
note that the great walls are lined with
precious marbles and that the cornices
and the friezes of the arches are of
gilded bronze. At night when the
thousands of lamps are lighted, when
great stars of fame float in the air be-
tween the dome and the floor, when
every pillar and every aclove is ablaze,
and when the various galleries are
walled with flame, the wonder of the
mosque takes on new grandeur, which,
added to the picturesqueness of the wor-
shippers themselves, make Ramazan
night in Santa Sophia one of the great
est sights of the world.
The Mobammedan prayers and
method of praying is fixed by the koran
and these 5000 men all prayed in the
same way. I noted their actions from
the beginning to the end OF each prayer.
The person praying must first remove
his shoes and sandals and turn his feet
toward Mecca. He must battle his
hands and feet and certain other parts
of his person before entering the
mosque, and in the court of this mosque
of Santa Sophia there is q large and
beautiful fountain. Entering the mosque
and standing in the right position
the worshipper begins by putting his
hands to the lobes of his ears and he
then holds them a little below his
girdle. He then goes through q num-
Der of prostrations, reciting certain
prayers from the koran Us he does so.
If he is faithful Mohammedan he
prays five times every day and he does
not care for his surroundings. At the
hours of prayer Mohammedans will be-
gin their devotions in the midst of q
crowd. They will stop their business
transactions. and whether in the store
or in the field they will drop on their
knees and pray. remember entering
q rug bazaar in Alexandria and calling
upon q gray-bearded, turbsned Turk
while he was engaged in his devotions.
He was standing on a rug in the back
of the store looking toward Mecca and
mumbling the koran. He must have
seen me as I entered with party of
Americans, and though he knew I in
tended to buy he paid no attention to
me. He continued his kAeeling
down and rising up for fully
fifteen minutes and sat
down and waited until he was
through. There were many other rug
establishments near by and he must
have known that he stood the chance of
the loss of a sale by not attending to me.
This made no difference, however, to
him. 1t would be curious thing to see
q merchant in New York or Chicago
stop his sales in the middle of the day
and drop on his knees and pray in the
presence of his customers.
The Turks read the koran fully as
much as we read the Bible. It is q COM
mon sight in going through the bszaars
to see one man reading the koran to his
friends. and nearly every merchant has
. copy Of this Mohammedan bible be-
side him, and yet you will see dozens OF

Do You Eat Too Much?

The majority of people eat about q
can really dimes three times q day,
with his beefsteak breakfast, chops for
lunch, and roast beef for his 6 o'clock
dinner. And he does it at his peril, for
this habit of overlooking, especially of
eating so much meat, is one of the pro-
voking causes. of so many sudden ILL
nesses and so many premature deaths.
Three meals day of hearty food is ex-
hausting to all the vital processes, and
even the strongest succumb finally to
this @wasteful and ridiculous process.
Americans are nation of brain-work-
ers, and cannot safely indulge in high
living. High-thinking, or constant use
of the brain in any direction, calls
for plain but nourishinC diet. Brain
workers. especially, ought to live spar
ingly. Luxurious feeders require much
exercise in the open air and freedom
from pressure on the brain. For aged,
or even those above so, luxurious living
and overeating are especially danger

with increasing years. the supply of
food should be decreased accordingly.
