He Was Noisy and q Thing OF Shreds
and Patches.
In an open square, where the dust pail
forbade sight or breath, directed my
steps toward the source Of throbbing
roll that ceaselessly wove itself In with
the noise Of voices and the pattering Of
unshod feet Of beasts. AS neared 1t
the noise became detached from the
hubbub, distinct and Individual thing,
which insistently claimed attention and
made the very notes in the air dance
to time. Under willow tree by the
water ditch that defined the square sat
a bent old man, unbelieTably ragged.
So torn were his many khalats that
they did not seem like constructed gar
ments at all, but strings Of tatters and
tags collected and hung on his fat,
weak body. His head was bent on his
breast, and his eyes were half closed.
On his stomach was wooden bowl,
with skin drum head stretched across
It, and on this drum head he beat in
fist. The motion was so automatic and
deadly regular in its recurrent changes
that it seemed almost as If he were
clockwork figure set at the edge Of the
busy market to record the passage Of
time. flung some coppers on the,
brass begging tray By his side and went
off, unconsciously adjusting my steps
to his beating. He made the trivial
barter and the driving Of laden animals
seem vapid and futile, and my bit Of
charity sickened me. 1t was as If I
had happened along and patted Socra-
tes on the back.-Langdon Warner in

The International Postal Congress
will open in Rome April Z, and will
probably be in session for six weeks
or more.
Practically every country in the
world belongs to the International Pos
tai Union and sends official delegates
to the Congresses. which are supposed
to meet every five years. Or. rather.
within five years after each successive
treaty goes into effect, which is some
times over a year after 1t Is signed by
the members Of the Congress.
The postal authorities Of the United
States are very much interested I'm the
probable outcome of the approaching
Congress. Two main questions are to
be considerations having to do with
rates and allied matters and the other
with the transit Of mails through one
country to their destination In anoth-
er. The object of the Congress will be
to reduce rates wherever it is feasible.
There are several propositions for
reducing the international letter rate.
One is that the present rate. which Is

the possibility of leaving the currency

two-thirds or three-quaEt&rs. This lat
ter method would not be acceptable to
the United States. however. owing to
the fact that in this country there are
not the equivalent weights to those
suggested. The increase Of the weight
to one ounce might be acceptable. it is
stated.
The question OF permitting letter
writers in one country to send stamps
into another for return postage and
making these stamps good in the for
eign country. for return to the place
from which the letter was sent, is also
to be considered. There is at present
