MOSQUES OF sTAMBOUL.
of All kinds of Architecture. They
Rise From Every Hill.
From st. Pauls'.


Mosques are everywhere in STEAMBOAT.
BY casting one glance across the Col
den Horn. as you stand at a window OF
the residence Of the British ambassador
in Pera, you can see seven in a line. A
closer inspection would reveal many more.
Rising from the crests of the hills. nest
ling down by the blue waters, hiding
away in the cypress groves. springing
from among the green-latticed houses OF
the suburbs, there is no place where the
mosque is not.
At one time it is a simple edlfice con-
sisting Of single dome with a solitary
fountain in a narrow court AT another
it almost rivals in size and majesty St.
Sophia itself, and in some of the most
universally favored mosques, the Muz-
zein or calling to prayer might be sent
forth from six long, slender minarets at
a time. In the large mosques dome would
rise above dome, fountain send its spark
ling stream toward fountain, court would
open into court, while marble columns
nle on in long succession, latticed WIN
dows troop forward range after range.
with a prOdigality which astonishes those
who have not understood that to build
and endow a lordly mosque was the first
object of most of the sultans who have
ruled at Constantinople,. from Mahomet
the Conqueror to Abdul Hamid in the
present day. And wherever the mosque
is there, dwells the dove, Bird of Nee
ca as the Osmanli call It, recountins
best beloved among winged creatures OF
Mahomet, their prophet.
a story runs that the first pigeons who
made their home In a mosque were placed
there by Sultan Bajazet. He stood on the
steps looking up at the sacred building
which he had erected and named after
himself and which now only needed one
touch to make il complete. As he fingered
an aged crone approached him and beg
ged him to buy a bird from the basket
hidden beneath her forighee. the kindly
monarch turned, and taking up a pair
of snowy white doves, gave her gold
piece in exchange. He threw them into
way TO the central dome, Nesting among
the marble sculptures at its base.
'Bismillahi' said the piOuS BaJazet;
1.-The hand of Allah is in this. My mosque
is crowned by an act of charity and the
prophet has received the birds into his
own home" The birds increased and
multiplied, flew from minaret to minaret
and from cupola to cupola on both shores
of the Golden Horn, til now they are alb
solutely innumerable.
The beauty Of the interior of the
mosques is greatly marred by certain
tawdry accessories. Enormous disks OF
deal painted grass green. with texts from
the Koran inscribed upon them, hang
across the marble pillars, crystal balls,
tufts of silk and ostrich eggs emblemat-
ic of the resurrection, sometimes 10 the
number of many score, are suspended from
the domed roof. Chests and trunks con-
tanning valuables, and not unif%luently
such things as jeweled scimitars, costly
tapestries goblets and SAVERS of gold,
cred building. They have been deposited
there by the owners in fun sense Of Sc
curity for who would dare touch treas
ure committed to the care OF Allah?

THE PILLOW AS A PRESENT.
How 1t May Be Made Useful as Wen
as Ornamental.
From the Boston Herald.


From the Boston Herald
1t is quite the fashion to present gifts
which are especially useful to the reci-
pient in HIS or her favorite sport or ac-
complishment A tennis player is given a
handsome racket and cover; golf player
a set of sticks; an artist, some one of his
many tools; a yachtsman, a set of pillows
or cushions; a musician, something for
the music room, and so on, whatever is
appropriate and particularly useful, says
an exchange.
The pillow seems an almost universal
gift 1t fits into every ones situation
whatever ii be. A traveller can use it, a
voyager needs it; a yachtsman must have
it, home-stayer has dozen places to
put it, and the covering and size distin-
guish its specific use.
For yachting friend, sailcloth or denim
is appropriate. round one is made of
white canvas, having applique figures of
blue denim, on which are etched with
white a waterscape, birds, anchors and
the like. The circles are united in design
with blue ribbon effect gracefully hoating
on the background of white. The edges
of the white cover are worked with eye
let's, and the two pieces are laced together
with white cotton rope. They come
little short of entirely covering the pill
low, so as TO show blue denim covering
A square pillow has white center, with
a fish design of blue silk etching, and blue
on and worked in blue. The edges of this
cover are eyeleted and laced together.
third pillow is entirely covered with
blue denim, having in the center a square
of fine canvas, or heavy linen, on which
is etched with the pen some suitable quo
tation and symbols of the sailors craft.
The edges are covered where the center
meets the border with rope work.
Any one of these canvas or denim COW
ers is in good taste for the deck of a
Yacht but if one wanted to present a
more elegant affair, the same idea can be
carried out in heavy sateen, either wool or
silk, appropriate for cabin use.
A very effective design in either silk,
sateen or denim may be easily managed
at home by cutting out of cardboard the
desired design, as quarter moon, anchor
and so on and laying il upon the material,
tracing the outline, afterward to be
worked in KensingtOn or etched with the
pen. The effect of rope in sailors knots
gracefully trailed over the pillow with
large anchor in the corner center is also
an artistic design.
White canvas worked in true colors, like
a flock of seagulls, or birds, or a sem
blance of waves, with a fish here and
there in solid work, is a very artistic de-
sign. Blue water, dove-colored birds and
brown or black anchor, with yellowish
rope, are true colors.
Brown and white denim are in taste for
the traveller, with quotations for the oc-
casion A college lad or lass would APP
.preciate the colors of their alma mater on
a pillow of white, and the class pin de-
signed in fine silk etching in a corner.

INTERESTING FACTS ABOUT THIS
PECULIAR DISEASE.

perience and Tells How He Sue

(Fronn the 50. Louis, NO., ChronicIe.l
"No one knows except myself the amount
of suffering | endured for upwards Of four
wears. from what l was told was catarrh
of the stomach" The speaker was Mr.. J.
p. Fox, one of the best known professional
swimmers in st. Louis, now at Prot. Clark's
Natatorium, 10th and Pine. Prof. Fex's
occupation necessitated his being in the
water several hours every day. He con.

gaunt and thin and excessively nervous
all of which denoted Catarrh of the stomach.
An attack of vertigo one day rendered him
unconscious for half an hour after which
he was confined to the house, and scarcely
able to walk across the room. He was Sleep

II would be Of the same circumference as

repeated, with a twinkle in his eye. why,

drew smaller ellipse in the first one,
and marked arrows TO show them going
in the opposite direction. Then he made
rectangle in a like position upon each of
them. LAS in the circle" he explained,
these elipses are exactly the same size,
the inner one in the figure being that
made by the train.
THE rectangle on each represents the
station at which the train wishes to stop.
The road-bed is going at the rate of a
hundred miles and so is the train. Now,
when the train wishes to land passengers
at the station it simply reverses its en-
gines and goes in the opposite direction at
the rate of 100 miles. That makes it 100
100 0, and so far as the station, which is
fixed, is concerned, the train is standing
still. The passengers can alight with
ease.
And let us wish the inventor of the
scheme every success"

FOLEY's ENORMOUS SIZE.
A Butcher Who Weighs $50 Pounds

From the Philadelphia Times.

From the Philadelphia Times.
New York, Dec. 14--John Foley, aged
30, single, butcher by trade, but home
less, is in the alcoholic ward of Belle
vue hospital, awaiting the ultimatum Of
the surgeons of the institution as to
whether it is deemed advisable or not for
him to have both legs amputated. He is
suffering from chronic alcoholism and
gangrenous growth of the limbs.
The remarkable fact in connection with
Foley is his size. He has a very small
face, but his body is enormous. On the
scales he weighs $50 pounds. He was re-
ceived at Bellevue late last night from
Roosevelt hospital, and to get him out
of the ambulance one side OF It had TO be
removed The door of the reception
room was too narrow to admit his body
and he was carried to the alcoholic ward,
where he occupies double bed. The sur
geons say at best he can live only few
days. A consultation will be held this af-
ternoon.
