themes. A little of it he has secured. He might
have secured more If some friend had persuaded
him to shorten his narrative. The book runs to
more than three hundred pages and the author
has not a light enough touch to cultivate his
particular kind of writing at such great length
But his pages are not without interest And
they are rendered the more attractive by the
form in which they are published. The book is
beautifully gotten up, with decorative borders
and some fine halftone illustrations.

SAL1DIN AND ~ ENGLISH WIFE.

From Notes and Queries
The Rev. John Wakeford, preaching at An
field near Liverpool the other sunday, told the
following story: In a little town village in
GlOuceSt terShre there is church which contains
the mortal remains of one of the old Crusaders
In mOuldering etiiSy he is depicted the tomb
while by his side in cold eloquence is imaged
the form of his wife. 1t Will he noticed by
even the casual observer that the female image
is beTeft of one Of the hands. and the story runs
that the Crusader while lighting in the East
was made prisoner Of war and brought before
Saladin. who before executing judgment upon
him, asked MIN if there was any reason why he
should not be put to death. To this the knight
replied that he was but young, and would leave
q newly welded wife, who would bitterly mourn
His loss.
The love of woman is as a heeting breath" "
rctorted the Sultan. Your wife will forget
that You have ever lived; she will love again
and marry another To this the sad knight
could only reply that on her fidelity he could
rest his soul. We'll. tnen, replied Saladin Il
will promise on my oath as a soldier that if this
mans wife viii cut off one Of her hands and
send it to me | will set him free to go to her"
BY tedious and SLOW jOurneyngS the message
came, and che, in all piteOuSnesS for him who
was her lover and her lord. caused her hand to
