appears to be a return monsoon, but
what probably is the current of the
southwest monsoon, which, passing
from the commencement of the rains in
June up the east coast and thence to the
northwest up the Gangetic valley. has
attained greater strength than that

THE JOLLY AMER.
Abdurrahman. of AfRhnntstnn, IL
One OF the Most Original OF
Living Rulers.

The most interesting ruler in the
world at present is, probably, Abdur.
rahman of Afghanistan.
A fine old-crusted autocrat is Abdur,
rahman, capable of waking up his doc
tor to ask him il it would hurt him to
eat peppermint lozenge, and also
shutting up thief in an iron cage to
starve to death.
Once a beggar in Kabdul asked aims
Of the khan.
did YOU ever work for living?'
asked the ruler.
"Never. o Khan" the man replied;
Il am a beggar."
"Then," said Abdurrahman, 1--WE car
do without you." and forthwith direct
ed that the beggar should be hanged
He is, however, susceptible to fiattery
and can sometimes be caioled.
A man whom he had sentenced te
have his ears cut off for some indiscre
ton happened to be friend of his chic
secretary, who averted the mutilatior
| by offering to perform the task himself
provided it might be done in tht
ameer's presence.
To this he assented. whereupon tn.
| secretary explained that he had never
executed this form of punishment be
fore, and would his highness show how
much Mas to be removed.
The ameer passed his hands over botf
cars of the trembling wretch
| whereupon the secretary reminded hin
of passage in the Koran showing tha
| anything touched by the representative
Of the Almighty became sacred. So the
ears were saved.

and occasionally inaudible degrees.
Presently he looked vacuously around
