liarity Of oriental life. The Orientals at
home can not have too much privacy, nor,
It appears, too much publicity anywhere
else, and the cafes are, therefore, as open to
public view as the stores.
II the cafes are centers Of political in
fuence, the mosques. which are seen at
every few steps, are the centers of religious
enthusiasm. The religion Of a Turk con-
sists largely in hating everybody who pro-
fesses a different faith, and the stranger in
Constantinople is often made unpieasantly
aware of the aversion in which iDidels
are held. Muttered curses, fierce glances
and an occasional Outspokeu expression of
hatred make him understand that he is
among a people who utterly detest all
foreigners. The guides, if reliable, give

POETIC THOUGHTS.
Written for THE SUNDAY CALL.
THE SCOTTISH CLANS.


Dedicated to Clan Fraser. No 10, of Order OF SEQ
tish Clans.
- HE lion standard waves on high,
%k1Z The flag we love to see,
AE3A Beneath its folds our sires could die
~ That Scotland should be free.
The clans to crush the tyrants' might
Marched TO bloody grave,
Ard still the clans win bravery fight
The poor and weak to save.
Chorus: Wen march wi DOR pIaids,
And DOR bonnets of blue;
Wen march WIZ the pipes
To the tunes that we lo'e-
The sick beds to smooth,
The mourners to Soorh-
March, march. march; aye, we'll marchi
In deadly strife, in days gone by,
The clans aye bore the brunt.
And when they heard the slogan CRY
They hurried % the front.
Weye Will conquer on the field,
When clansmen are opprest,
And die the helpless ones to shield
OF comrades laid TO rest
Though we may now BE- far away
From dear old ScoIia's shore,
Our sweetest thoughts will often stray
To scenes we loved of yOre.
And other glorious, deafness fame
In endless praise wen sing;
Wen cherish every noble name
OF warrior, bard and king
Hark, Scots! hear ye the gath'rlng calf
The pipes sound clear and loud
Come round our banner, come ye all,
And join the loyal crowd
Come We and with US boldly share
The dangers of the fight
The dauntless Scottish clans will dare
The death for truth and right.
