The sultan. Barbarou. CAPITAL.

European ladies constantly run away
with the idea that Constantinople is a
civilized town and act accordingly.
Then they are astonished when some.
thing disagreeable happens, and con,
tinually one hears of ladies being hus.
tied, pinched or kissed by Turkish SOL
diers. 1t must be remembered that the
soldiers are recruited from the widest
tribes in Asia Minor, where woman 10
considered an inferior creature, who
must give way to man, besides being
trained to avoid him on all possible oc.
casions.
One can easily imagine that such
soldier is astonished to see European
lady unveiled, boldly expecting him to
give way to her or at any rate not
avoiding him, and he naturally takes il
to be an advance on her part. Ladies
have often told me they have been
pushed by soldiers into the gutter, and
I have nearly always found that it is
simply as | have explained, that nei-
ther makes way for the other, with the
result that the lady, being the weaker,
comes to grief.-London Telegraph.

what liberal youth. At the beginning
of his concluding year his father. who

travel all summer"
Harry was delighted. Father" said

the college year and in June went
through with flying colors. Then he
cabled his father:

But the father, alas. had forgotten
his impulsive offer. He unused over
the message. wondered and then cabled
back:
"Yes-what"
The son was in turn perplexed, but.
being we'll trained lad he did not re-
main long in the dark and. fired by du-
teous zeal. cabled back:
"Yes. sir"

he won the grand tour" - Atlanta
