For many years | was teacher in
Afghanistan, and during my stay in
that country was often an unwilling
witness Of some horrible exhibitions
of torture. Here is one they use in the
case of women to extract testimony.
1t consists in prying Off the finger
nails by means Of small chisel or
bra 'awl, which is showed in slowly
but firmly from the finger tip down
ward under the quick of the nail, which
is then lifted up and out.
This is another that once saw used
in the case Of small child who woC''!
not own up to some petty theft: Sticks
were thrust between it's fingers and
the fingers then squeezed together, so
that the sticks crushed into the bones.
So much for women and children.
Here is q method Of eliciting informa-
ton from an unwilling man: The cul-
prit is stripped to the waist, and then
boiling oil is flicked' On to his back.
This seldom fails to find the mans
tongue.
The above are the chief forms of
''fahana," or torture. for the purpose
of eliciting information, but 1t must
be stated that such infections as
nipping Of noses, tearing out tongues
or splitting .cyeballs do not come under
the heading of 'fahana,' they being
punishments rather than tortures.-

When one has been dreaming in heavenly
Good night to you, sweetheart, good night.
And there in the shadow you're standing,
And we're drifting and drifting apart
To duties supreme and commanding
To distance and darkness, sweetheart!
Are we never content with loves vision
OF heaven that his smile makes complete?
Do mourn that the meadows elysian
Have now been transformed to the street2
The same steadfast stars above me,
And distance has never the art
To drown the sweet thought that you love me-
That you love me forever, sweetheart
This rosel Did you wear it? token
I'm taking away with me, sweet
That word which was tenderly spoken
That won the hearts answering beat!
The hand clasp the gentle delaying
OF love that was fain of the light;
That tn IS that was willfully straying
From locks that gave gold to the night
We sigh not, we cry not at fate, dear,
Nor pass to the shadow unblest
II love, through a world and its hate, dear,
Lead life to the lilies of rest.

And why should lips CULVER, hearts sadden,

Good night and good night. Where your
dreams are
know, in some guise, shall be;
Your grief. dear. your sunny bright CLEANS ara
The light and the shadow to me,
No more to sweet farewells replying
We drift In the wide world apart;
Love knows that Ia faithiul-undying-
Nor distance, nor darkness sweetheartl
