of those found in the churches. The
hotel bars were deserted. The fakirs
on Stony avenue failed to attract the at

lonesome and many were closed and the
proprietors went to the fair. TIE EN-.

Passing along by the state building I
dropped a glance at the home of WASH

building, apparently closed, passed hur-
ridly through the beautiful structure
provided by Iowa, admiring the cereal
decorations and it's display of products

building, stood a moment in admiration
of the mountain home reproduced in
Idaho, the gem of the mountains, found
myself with uncovered head in the pres.
ence of the wonderful works of art dis
played in the German building. In the
Catholic exhibit one could almost see
the bloody sweat upon his brow, and
hear the ~pleadings OF Mary's heart.

the representation of Jesus blessing the
little ones. The old Bibles and other

Midway Plaisance made me enjoy the
Turkish lunch. They called 1t the cele.

mere familiar name and the street
Arabs call EN- red-hots.
l would not advise my Christian
friends to take a stroll down Midway
Plaisance, Sunday afternoon. Go on
Saturday when you have turned your
spirits out for a frolic.
Go early and stay late. 1t won't hurt
you then, but on Sunday the din of mus

thousand orders OF the thousand attrac-
tons, the wild hllarity of some of the
sports, the fun the boys have donkey

voluptuous forms of the dark beauties

There is n thing to be said about
the dark-skinned people of the Orient
as we see them here. They are natural
people. They are natural in dress and
motion and express their emotions
whether they be of pleasure or pain.
Their features talk. Their eyes speak
IN music, and their forms-as 1 said
