For forty years his life was passed
among needles and thread, but in the
few leisure hours which his trade al
lowed him, he had always been fond
reader Of legends, chronicles, histories
and all that told of the times that were
past. By such reading he grew to be
so attached to old memories that when
about forty years of age he threw down
his needle, devoted himself to collect
ing them and followed his new profess
sion with the faith and enthusiasm of
an apostle. Short of means, he made
long journeys afoot to hunt over and
ransack colleges and monasteries. and
no matter how worn and torn might
be the rags of old papers which he
found, he kept all, reviewing, connect
ing, copying, comparing, annotating
with truly wonderful ability and good
sense. Arrived at fourscore years, and
no longer capable of earning a live
lihood, he applied to the king, and
James l., consenting to his petition,
granted to the man who had saved
treasures of memoirs for English his
tory, the favor of wearing a beggar's
garb and asking aims at church doors.
In this AFFECT state, forgotten and de-
spised, he died two years later.

When the queen, now in her 18th.

set off with diamond buttons, of his

displays the autocracy enjoyed by his
sex in Persia.
"He much needs the discipline of an
English school, says his mother, ''fOr
in Persia his word is law. Being CO.
heir with an only brother, he was lord
of the village in which we lived, and
every village child was his slave. When

structiOns, and the small offenders
were promptly beaten, for Persian

He perpetually orders them, in native
Persian, to remain playing so long as
he is pleased to be pleased, and exhib-
| its the utmost disgust when they move
on regardless of his lordly commands
"Sometimes I am glad he cannot
speak English, for in Persia he was
taught to class Europeans with mon
keys, and he has no hesitation in ad.

his prejudices. Fortunately his Ian
guage is so pretty that the opprobrious
title frequently passes for a term of en-
dearment."

wife of his rank and his wealth, but
he had not yet mentioned the fact that
he already had three other wives at

But in 1892 there came a command
from the Shah to return home. Abb
dullah had by this time decided to
make England his home. He was a
man of cultivation and had found Eu-
ropean civilization much to his taste.
But, under penalty of FORGETTING his
estate. he was obliged to obey the
Shah's orders, and when he reached
Teheran he had to tell his English
bride that she was only No. 4. One
can imagine the scene, the tears, the
protestations, and all the rest. But
there was nothing for the young wife
to do but to submit, and she had the
satisfaction of being the preferred wife
the first lady of the harem.
When it was known to the English
at Teheran that one Of their country
women was in the harem there was
considerable excitement, and many
English ladies visited her. She be-
came at once popular in court circles
and the Shah gave her the name Of
Beebee Khanung, signifying tthe lady
of ladies' But favor and popularity
cost her trials and dangers, as will be

A few months ago Abdullah sudden

the seals and was arrested, and three
