YOUSSOUFF IEVFIh.
his (Youssouff's) slave girl on the
very eve Of their projected marriage.
He added the circumstances of Zu-
leika's purchase, pointing out that she
had been bought on the installment
plan, and that 5000 francs were still
owing on her. "If your majesty will
not restore my intended wife, send
me at least the money for which I
became liable through her purchase"
wrote Youssouff in conclusion of his
petition. He did not have to wait long
for an answer. Next morning at 10
o'clock court carriage drove up at
his door, and out jumped Zuleika,
more beautiful and more richly dressed
than ever. The colored gentleman who
accompanied her, and who was. as 1t
afterward turned out, one of the minor.
eunuchs Of Yildiz Palace, smilingly
stepped up to Youssouff and counted
$4,000 francs upon the table.
"His majesty has graciously pleased
to order the official of whom you COM
planned to pay over the full purchase
price of the slave herewith returned"
he said. After getting his receipt he
drove rapidly away. The negotiations
had not lasted more than five min
utes.
Zuleika wouldn't answer any ques-
tions as to where she had been and
with whom. She said she had sworn
not to reveal anything until after
three days had passed.
Well, she took the secret with her
into the grave, for, as stated, she lived
only three-quarters of an hour after
her return home. While in her death
agonies she had only strength enough
to say she had partaken of no food
or drink since that mornings break
fast in the harem.
Those who saw the slave girl say
she was the most beautiful Circassian
that had been brought to Constantine
pie for years. She was only IL years
Of age, little over five feet in height,
and perfectly proportioned. She had
beautiful small hands and feet, an
oval face, blond hair and complexion
of lilies and roses. Her eyes were
dark and big and full of intelligence.
Youssouff is nearly distracted over
her loss, but can do nothing. All the
talk is that no less a person than the
Sultan himself played the leading
part in the tragedy. Furthermore,
there is the evidence Of the harem
cook, and there are the $4,000 francs.
The Sultan could not afford to have the
name OF robbing a subject of slave
and money, too. So he reimbursed
him and sent him back his slave, but
not for long. Thus, no lowly subject
embraced the woman whom the Sui
tan himself had coveted.

PROFITABLE
Undertaking Is the State Railway System


in Belgium.
The state railway system Of Bel
gium is estimated as the most prof1t-
able commercial undertaking, both to
the government and to the peoples ever
promulgated in Europe. 1t consists OF
$500 miles, of which 1000 are govern
ment property. Its profits more than
pay the entire interest on the Belgium
national debt The Belgian railways
have been the making of the nation,
as from a comparatively insignificant
agricultural commonwealth it has late
ly developed into humming bee hive
of commercial activity.
Other European governments own
railways, although in no case has the
experiment proved so successful as IN
Belgium. Germany, in addition to a
large quantity of stock in the railway
world. has created the North Sea ca
nal. France, Holland and Russia are
also largely interested in their own
railroads. OF purely departmental
workings the British post is by far the
most profitable in Europe.

One of the Most Remarkable Women of

Love for the Daughter of the

When the sacrifices and faith Of
women are named side by side with
the achievements and ambitions OF
men, the name of Mrs. jefferson Da-
Wis will not be forgotten. Before the
eyes of that gentle woman now wait
ing under northern skies the approach
of death there are scenes of tragic in
terest and remembrances OF events
which set the whole world trembling
nearly forty years ago. She sees a
man in the full tide of power; mas
ter Of elOquence, compelling by his own
fiery impetuosity the hearts Of his fol-
lowers. He speaks like one inspired,
and his face (brow shadowed and thin
at chin is illumined into beauty. She
is his other self. Her heart beats with
his; responds to his ambitions. She
sees him installed as president of the
Confederate States; she receives the
congratulations and homage of the
counterfeit of nation, and lives again
the awful day of nations wrath.

guns of Wilson's cavalry return to
her memory now. She sees the tram

WHERE WIVES TRIUMPH.

In the Philippines the law which re-
trtes to the property of married peo-
pie is entirely in favor of the wife.
Any property a bride may possess is
never by any chance settled upon the
husband, and if he is poor and she
we'll off, he can only become at most
an administrator of her possessions.
After death, unless she has executed
a deed in her husbands favor, under
a lawyers eye, the property goes to
her children and blood relations, but
none to her husband.
A married woman retains her maid
en- name and adds to it that of her
husband with the prefix "de" and the
children bear the names of both par
ents.
The husband symbolically endows
the bride with all his worldly posses
sions after the marriage. In fact, it is
clearly case in the Philippines of
whats yours is mine and what's mine
is my own" as far as the women folk
are concerned.

ENGLISH GRIP CURE.
A Physicians Treatment That II Guar.
snteed to BE Effective.

snteed to BE Effective.
DR.. j. G. Ross writes from Manches-
ter, England, in regard to the epidemic
Of grip in America. He says no mat
ter how severe the form Of the affec-
tion may be, it can be cured II proper
ly treated with decoction of cinnamon
within "a hours of it's appearance. His
method established on eight years
practice on cases of this class, Is by
means of cinnamon administered In
large and repeated doses, so as to sat
urate the tissues of patient suffering
some fever of microbic origin, which
thus from a fitting indus becomes an
uniting indus for the reception of the
microbe. The microbe then ceases to
flourish and the fever runs mild
course. If the disease has existed for
48 hours and upward the treatment
practically yields no result whatever.
Where the symptoms have not been
developed more than three OR four
hours the patient can return to his
work within As hours. The method Of
treatment is, if the influenza has not
existed for more than "a hours, to or
der the patient to take half an ounce
of decoction of cinnamon every hall
hour until six doses have been taken.
After this half-ounce doses are to be
taken every hour until "a hours have
elapsed from the commencement of the
treatment At the expiration of the
"a hours the same dose is to be re-
peated every two hours until the tenn
perature falls to normal. After that
half an ounce of the decOction Is to be
given four times day for two days
The patient is instructed not to leave
the house for "a hours after the tenn
perature has become normal. Some
times the patients complain that the
cinnamon makes them feel sick, but
there is good reason to believe that In
such cases the feeling of nausea arises
from the influence of the grip on the
aimentary canal, and not from the
cinnamon, because in every case where
the treatment has been persistently
continued the nausea has ceased.

Sultan is said to have remarked lit
tie while ago. The same day Yaver
Aga his majesty's chief eunuch, called
upon Youssouff and commanded him
to give up the girl. Youssouff refused,
for he had meanwhile fallen madly in
love with her. Next came an offer
from the Sultan's "Kadyns," the seven
women who pass as his regular wives.
They desired to buy Zuleika for their
master Offering very large sum as
purchase price. But Youssouff could
neither be bought nor bullied, and was
quite proud of the fact. He evidently
forgot that he was living in Turkey.
but If he did he wasn't allowed to lose
sight of the fact long.
Two weeks ago, coming home from
his Office, he was informed by his
servants that Zuleika had run away
leaving all her jewels. fine dresses
and money behind. OF course that in
dicated where she had gone. No wom-
an, least OF all a Circassian aban-
dons her diamonds and fine frocks un-

was certain Of the fact and could prove
it nothing could be done.
The next few days Youssouff spent
lounging about Yildiz Palace and in
terviewing all officials, high and low,
who would listen to him. Many of
them accepted his bribes, but none
could give him the desired informa-
tion. At last Youssouff got hold Of a
cook who prepares the meals for the
Sultans mistresses at their OCCASION
al meetings. This man had an idea.
"Tell what is Zuleika's favorite dish,
and l will tell you whether she is in
the harem, where 1 serve," said he.
Nothing easier than that. Twenty
four hours later Youssouff knew his
surmises respecting the Sultan's COM
plicity in spiriting away his Circas-
sian had been correct.
Then he sat down and wrote a let
ter to the Padishah, complaining that
