THE. BULGARIAN.
Peculiar Fellow, He Is Either a
Soldier or Il Peasant.


1t is a strange country of contrasts,
this Bulgaria that people have so long
watched as danger spot. The peasant
is heavily built fellow, with a Kal-
muk nose if he happens to be pure bred
from the original Samoycde stock,
which is not likely. His language has
become Slavic, which means a Ian
guage in which "beefsteak" is "mpiph-
teki" and "omelet soufile' is "olnlet
cuphle."
The Bulgarian is a peasant or a SOL
der. He knows no other trade. AS
farmer the sheep is all in all to him,
food and clothing and conpanionship,
says writer in The Era. He lives in
hovel. does not understand why he
should be taxed and makes his women
slave in the field. He is called close
tisted, churish and suspicious and has
some of the virtues that often go with
those qualities.
When Bulgaria became practically
free Of the sultan, there were many
Turks left in the country. These are
gradually being crowded out. but there
is still mosque in Christian Sofia. and
in the palace Of the sobranje, or parlia-
ment, where the members have better
accommodations than the lords Of Brit
ain on the Thames embankment. some
twenty Turkish deputies always sit to-
gether and exert an influence that they
never could do in their own land by
voting always with the party in power.
Every Saturday the members Of the
sobranje are paid at the rate of Is
francs u day. all in silver five franc
pieces These peasant lawmakers knot
it up in handkerchiefs. grin slowly and
shake the jingling pieces playfully in
one another's face. They are playing
at craftsmanship yet. but fairly well

The Rest Cure,

Quiet and warmth are the medicines
OF the four footed philosopher. If a
dog is ailing. he rolls himself into a
ball In a warm corner and eats little or
nothing till he is well. Many times rest
is the only medicine needed by the sick,
but we seldom follow this example.
The biped loses the instinct Of the ami
NAL. He fumes. frets. takes stimulants
and medicaments and gives no chance
to the recuperative forces of NATURE

Some years ago at Mardi Gras ball

masked, approached a woman, masked,
and asked her for dance. as is con-

"But don't know you, SIR" said the
lady in her most icy tone.
"Well, I'm taking as big risk as
you are" retorted the man.
