Clouds may be seen hurrying together

look for safety. This safety they will
never find in any easterly direction.

only absolute safety, however, is to be

THE TOWN OF wAzAN.
A Modern City of Refuge For the OPP
pres sed ard Criminals.

A Modern City of Refuge For the OPP
pressed AID Criminals.
As Wazan is city of refuge for the
outside world, so are the mosques and
tombs of the shereefs for the inhabit-
ants of Wazan; and men fleeing from
justice or an enemy have been known
to spend months and even year in the
holy precincts without once issuing
forth The great mosque of Muley Abb
dullah Shereef, with its courts and ar
cades, affords shelter for any number
of these refugees, and at the present
moment no inconsiderable quantity are
housed there. Their food is brought to
them by their relatives or friends, If
they have any, and il not they either
send and buy, or, if moneyless, exist on
the charity of those who pray in the
mosque.
No Christian may enter these holy
precincts, aud as one passes the doors
of the mosques one can only catch a
glimpse of long rows of columns and
arcades. The tombs themselves are
within, each in its sanctuary. These
holies of holes are said to be most gorge
GUS and beautiful. The ceilings and
doors are richly painted and gilded, the
walls and the tombs are hung with
gold-embroidered velvet, while on every
side are ranged the presents brought
by the faithful who visit and pray
there Two centuries and half of Of
ferings are contained within these
sanctuaries. Among them are candle
sticks of silver and gold, boxes of illu-
minated manuscripts, more than hum
dred clocks of all ages and fashions, a
quantity of old china and many other
quaint things. Doubtless among this
huge collection are articles of gold and
silver, clocks, china, etc, which, on ac-
count Of their ages and the great care
that has always been taken of them, are
almost priceless.
The business part of the sanctuaries
is, without doubt, the huge boxes, with
grated tops. into which the faithful
drop their money The sums thus col
lected are divided monthly into four
parts, one-fousth being laid aside for
the keeping up of the tombs and three
fourths going to the shereeian family

Some Peculiar Kodents,

Death valley, California, notwith-
standing it's suggestive name, is the
abode of more curious and wonderful
specimens of animal creation than any
place of It's size within the limits of the
United States. The oldest of these
creatures, perhaps, is species of rodent
called the kangaroo rat" which trav-
els from place to place By executing a
series of jumps or springs, almost in
exact imitation of his namesake of the
Australian wilds Then, too, as though
it were natures purpose to make a
miniature of every larger piece of handi-
work, the same locality furnishes the
Kangaroo mouse" counterpart and
perfect pocket edition of the rat Be-
sides these kangaroo rodents there are
at least two other odd specimens of the
same genus in the California Valley OF
Reath-the pocket mouse" with little
pouches inside his mouth for slowing
away surplus food and the scorpion
mouse" which feeds wholly upon scor-
pions.-St. Louis Republic.

How to Keen Away wrinkles.

A great many earnest thinkers of a
nervous temperament fall into the
habit of scowling when they read.
write, or talk seriously. This causes
two little perpendicular lines to pillow
in between the eyes, and ages a face ten
years. 1t is habit almost impossible
to correct, once formed, as it is done
unconsciously by many young people.
A studious young woman, still in her
early twenties, found herself the victim
of this scowl, which had already made
two fine hair lines in her brow. She
set herself to work to cure the habit by
setting the mirror before her face when
she read, wrote, or studied; but as this
attracted her attention from her work
she finally placed ribbon band tightly
across her brow, tying it in a knot at
the back of her head, and at night she
slept in the band. After several months
the lines disappeared from her pretty
forehead. and she is quite cured of the
disfguring habit Chicago Tribune.

It's strange that in the midst of plenty
there should be any scarcity felt here,
and there is really no need for it, for the
land is unlimited, only waiting to be
scratched TO yield an abundant harvest.

towns and go up into the bush and com

Nature and Defornity.

Nature is very particular to conceal
her deformitics, and all that is worthless
or ungraceful generally drops off from
tree unless it be an injury to tho trunk.
From such effects the tree never recov-
ers. Go into tho forests and how often
we SEQ dcformed trees, some bent and
twisted, some parted till tho original
trunk becomes like two-each crossing
and recrossing the other. This was dono
by depression or injury to tho tree in its
young and tender years. Nature has no
power to right Il broken law-neither in
tho animal nor tho vegetable organism.
Punishment follows, and deformity re-
sults.-Bostoit Transcript.

Waiting For tho Minister.

A good story is told of Mr.. Labou-
there during his career in the diplomatic
service and while he was an attache at
Washington. An Progressively irate"
visitor called at the legation and de-
manded to see the British minister. Mr..
Labouchere informed him that he could
not, because This excellency was not in"
WELL" said the visitor, evidently sus-
pecting subterfuge, II must see him, and
will wait till he comes" Every good"
said Mr.. Labouchere. "Pray take a
chair" and he resumed his writing. At
the end of an hour the visitor, "still fret
ting and tuning" asked when the min
lister would be back ~ really sannot
say exactly" the attacho answered. "But
You expect him back" the visitor insist
ed. "Oh, certainly" said Mr.. Labou-
chere and went on writing.
AT the end Of another hour the irate
visitor, bouncing up, insisted on know
ing what were the habits of the minister
at that period of the day. Was he likely
to be i'll in another hour? ~ think not"
said Mr.. Labouchere, with increased
blandness; 1.-THE fact is he sailed for Eu-

Saved by n Prayer.

York was sent by my parents to spend
few weeks with an aunt of my fathers.
| had not been at her home long when
one evening as we were preparing to re-
tire for tho night my aunt discovered
that we were not alone in the room. She
had noticed IL slight noise and upon close
inspection discovered man hid in a
closet. She linelt in silence few mo-
mcnts; then i'll a loud voice she asked
God to protect the stranger, whoever he
might be, to keep him from the evil he
intended to commit, to bless and lead
him to better ways.
She had barely finished when he came
from his hiding place and addressed her,
saying: Madam, you have taught me
lesson shall never forget. My mother
taught me 10 pray just as you have
prayed tonight when was but little
child" and with these words he left us,
and we have never seen him since.-Cor

In Two Big Ciiics.

The average man who makes the trip
to Brooklyn by the bridge cars conducts
himself very differently at the two ends
of the line. On the New York side he
manifcsts the utmost cagcrncss TO lose
no time. He rushcs up the station steps,
crowds upon the first car he comes to,
and then dashes for seat, as if his hopes
of happiness depended upon his speed.
When he gets to the Brooklyn end of tho
bridge, however, he has more time He
walks away from the cars as if he had no
further reason to hurry. Instead Of fight
ing for IL first place on the stairways, he
loitcrs along rs il he wanted to end the
procession. y Brooklyn philosopher &C
counts for the phenomenon on the ground
that everybody is inclined to be happy
i'll his town and is too we'll content to
hurry.-New York Times.

MIR. Roosevelt Tells n Story or Two.

Mr.. Theodore Roosevelt is practical
politician and has some good stories to
tell of his experiences while in the legis-
lature. In his address before the Liberal
club on Thursday evening he told some
of them.
One was of a legislator who used to
ask him to support unconstitutional bills.
But. my dear FRIEND" Mr. Roosevelt
would say, ''its unconstitutional" II
never allow tho constitution to como be-
tween friends" was the reply, and then
becoming very indignant the man would
add. Mr.. Roosevelt, tho constitution
doesn't treat little things like that"
Another man objected to his quoting
