TIE SHAH OF PERSIAS DAIRY

Extracts from the diary of the Shah
of Persia, who has quite recently been
visiting England, are amusing.
The shah was nightly impressed
= the greatness and incorruptibility
If the London police, and wrote con
<cerning them as follows: "The Eng
lish police gentlemen are men of the
greatest culture and honor. Unlike
these Of many countries, have been
informed that the police Of England
and the United States are almost in
corruptible, and that it is impossible
to bribe them except by the touch OF
gold. These officers carry them
selves with great dignity, but there
have been occasions on which they
have shown commendable alacrity, and
have been known to be present when
the public peace has been threatened
by certain unseemly and riotous
citizens"
The shah has very poor opinion OF
the English climate, if one may judge
from the following extract: 1T is very
necessary for the people of England
to wash thoroughly and frequently in
order to clear themselves from the
constant fogs and rains that fall upon
them. So much do the people OF Bri-
tain love water that they sometimes
wash twice daily. Even the mem
bers of the royal family and the great
mobiles find pleasure in this somewhat
childish occupation"
This despotic monarch's opinion OF
English women's charms and accom-
plishments is hardly altogether flatter'
ing: "An English lady is very fair to
look upon Her skin is soft and clean,
but her figure is unnatural and angu-
lar. She has certainly not the pleas
ing vivacity of French lady, neither
has she the captivating boldness of
an American lady, Of whom many are
in London. An English woman is pas
sonataly fond of animals, and is often
devoted to her husband and children. y
The shah was mighty impressed at
the great wealth CT some of the Eng
l,sh people: MANY private individu-
a.s," he writes, "are almost as rich as
the king himself It speaks very
highly for King Edwards kind
heartedness to say that he never re-
sents this great wealth existing among
mis- subjects, neither does he punish
them in any way for this apparent
presumption"

The old professor shared his den
with me, and after the days work in
the museum he would often sit before
the tiny crate fire and talk. punched
the fire and listened.
When did | begin my life as nat

can remember the day | stopped col

What thing?' l asked.
Birds eggs. No, it wasn't because
the minister got after me or the school
teacher or my colscience-although
that has never stopped troubling me
since. 1t was two birds that got after
me. 1 was trying to rob them, and
they whipped mc-thrashed me so thor
oughly that | have been ashamed ever
since to steal any kind Of birds eggs.
And that's been since l was seventeen
about five miles from our house, on
the edge Of salt marsh, called Moses,
Windrows, stood an eagle tree, the
home of famous pair Of bald heads.
The eagles were known all over the
county, and the ancient nest had a
place in the Chart of every oysterman
in the bay.
Il had looked away toward that nest
ever since could remember. l had
often stood beneath its great tree and
gazed up at it, always with longing
to mount to it and lay hands on the
eggs. To stand up in that eagles nest
was the peak of all my boy ambitions.
And | did it. | had the eggs of
those eagles in my hands, but only
once.
'"The tree was stark old white oak,
almost limbless, and standing alone on
the marsh. The eagles nest capped
it's very top.
"The nest had always seemed big,
but not until climbed up close under
1t did l realize that it was the size of
a small haystack. There was certainly
half cord CT wood in it. l think that
it must originally have been built by
fish hawks.
Holding to the forking top upon
which the nest was placed, l reached
out, but could not touch the edge from
any side.
81 had come determined to get up
into it, however, at all hazard, and SO
l set to work. l never thought of
how was to get down. nor never
deeamed, either, of fearing the eagles.
A bald-headed eagle is bully. l
would have soon have thought of fear
Ing our Kissing old gander at home.
''As could not get out to the edge of
the nest and scale the walls, the only
possible way up, apparently, was
through, the structure. The sticks
here in the bottom was old and quite
rotten. Digging was easy, and soon
had good beginning.
"The structure was somewhat cone
shaped, the smaller end down. 1t had
grown in circumference as it had
grown in years and in height, probably
because at the bottom the building ma
terials had decayed and gradually fai-
len away. until now there was a de-
cided outward slant from bottom to
top. 1t had grown lopsided, too, there
being big bulge on one side Of the
nest near the middle.
The small1ess of the bottom at first
helped me; there was less of the stuff
to be pulled out. l easily broke away
the dead timbers and pushed aside the
tougher sticks. l intended to cut
channel clear to the top and so up
through the structure. Already NY
head and shoulders were well into the
nest

IMPORTANT FACTS.

Deaths from what is called
heart disease, or heart failure,
seem to be increasing among us.
The only true heart failure is a
mechanical arrangement of the
valves of the heart from pre-
vious Inflammation of it's lin
ing. One may have this and live
out all his days. 1t is not this
malady that is dropping people
in their tracks as though by pis-
tol shots. Oh no. What then ?
1t is a symptom, often nantes
ted IN the heart, of a general
condition. The actual cause of
the sudden ending of so many
lives is nervous prostration, ane-
mia or poverty of the blood,
general debility and the poor di-
gestion and assimilation of food.
The nerves tremble and ache be-
cause they are half starved, and
the heart weakens because the
nerves do not give it the needed
impulse. A person with a vital
lied and we'll nourished bodywill
never suffer from heart trouble !;
and the remedy to accomplish
this is the effective food medicine
WAMPOLE'S PREPARATION
