tion n Mid One.


tion Mid One.
Odd stories are coming from Constan-
tinople in connection with the recent
earthquakes. One has been told Of Gus
sui Block, physician to the sultan The
earthquake damaged the part Of the
palace in which he lives, and suddenly
two favorite wives Of the sultan were
precipitated through the ceiling into
the Doctors room All three fed from
the building before it collapsed and
found the sultan himself in the court
yard
The stern practice Of Islam left the
sultan no choice but to tie up his two
wives in sacks and plunge them into the
Bosporus, they having been gazed upon
by profanc giaour. Fortunately the
sultan cherished affection for both Of
them, and having consulted the grand
mutt he saw his way TO have them pun
ished symbolically. They were put into
sacks which were properly sewed up
and duly taken to sequestered spots on
the banks Of the Bosporus, and in the
presence Of a number Of praying imams
gently dipped into the soft, blue waters,
after which the women were deemed 70
be purified. They were then removed to
a new home and restored to their con-
iueal rights. London Truth

escort him did not arrive till after his
departure and did not overtake him till

THE EMPTY HOUSE

The ancient apple tree that stands
Beside the binck. defayine caves
f)nre more has bnth her crooked hands
Half fun OF Mnytime flowers and leaves
But the old gray house where the gold haired
children
Blo--omed out from window ana door
At the early kiss 81 the warm may SUNSHINE
IT,. oid crny house will bloom no more
In that old apple tree aSain
Their loving nest the biuebirds NIL
They wnrhlG to the mild spring rain.
With music soft the mornings thrill
Bnt the old gray house with her vacant win
dows.
Whore never a rosy cheek IL pressed.
Where all II silence and void and shadow.
No birds come back 70 her empty nest
