A Trying Experience.

From the Indianapolis Journal
Probably one of the greatest shocks
to which the housekeeper's oonstitu-
ton Is exposed ia the horrible expert
ment of rising leisurely In the morn
ing and finding no breakfast In prepare
ton and no cook on the premises. This
was Mrs. Fitzsmith's sad fate the 9TH
er day. Sophie, the colored cook, had
not returned at night, her room was
desolately empty and the kitchen knew
her no more. About 10 O'Clock q if
teen-year-old black lad sidled into the
back door and announced that Sophie
couldn't come "cause she's gittin' re-
ligion.''
"Getting religion" the mistress re-
peated stupidity.
"Yessum,'' the boy explain ed.
"they's q RIVAL down at ole Zion
church an Sophie wuz pulled in
'mongst 'em las night"
when do you think she' will be
back?" was asked.
II dun know; them RIVALS takes time,
lady; they shore duz take time.''
The boy departed and in two days
the mistress started out to interview
Sophie and see how matters stood con-
corning the kitchen. Sophie was
found at home, but her answer to in
quiries were not reassuring. "No, no,
Sophie said. Il can't cook now, Sniff
I'm a-gittin' r'ligion. I goes to
church all night and lays abed all
day"
It WAS delicate subject from which
to force satisfaction, and yet the lady
of the house longed for certain inform
alton.
Sophie, haven't you any idea when
you will come back? 1 don't want to
change cooks unless have to-

UP to this time the Ottomans had. in
the main, remained mere pagan
horde; under Gilman they embraced
Mohammcdansm and were consolitiat-
cd into nation. Filled with the zeal
or new converts. they then embark ed
upon career of conquest Partly at
the expense of the Greek empcrors of
Constantinople. who still ruled large
districts in Asia Minor partly at the
expense of other Mohammedan chiefs.
the territory of the Ottomans grew
constantly larger. until at last Othmnn
had become the most powerful prince OF
western Asia.
FROM ASIA INTO EUROPE
Gilman died In 1926. He was sue
cecded by his son Orkhan, by whom.
in 1880, the Greek city OF Nicaea-thc
second city OF the empire. famous as
the seat of the carly councils of the
Christian church-was taken. This con-
quest brought the Turks to the shores
OF the Bosporus, across whose narrow
waters they could see the domes and
towers Of Constantlnople. A quarter of
century. however. was to pass before
the Turkish power crossed that narrow
strait and gained foothold on the Eu-
ropean continent.
Meanwhile Orkhan and his brother
thc first grand vizier Of Turkish his
tory) labored to organize his Asiatic
conquests and to improve the efficiency
of the heterogeneous forces which COM
posed his army. At this time was
formed the famous corps of Janissaries,
or new troops" The source from
which they were drawn was of deep
significance. Every fifth year the chill
dren of the subject Christian villages
were assembled. and from them the
Turks took one-fifth of the number,
selecting especially the sturdiest and
most promising boys. who were then
carried off to be brought ND in the
Mohammedan faith: from these lads
the Janissaries were recruited. (For
three centuries this enormous drain
upon the Christian populations was
kept up, and so long as the Janssaries
continued to be recruited in this way
they constituted the most formidable
part of the Turkish army; they ended,
however. by mastering those whom
they were designed to serve, and it was
not until the present century that this
new Praetorian guard was finally got
rid of by the sultans.)
The entrance Of the Turks into the
European provinces of the empire. like
that OF the saxons into Britain, came
first in the form OF practical raids. then
