Of the True Religion.
Perhaps it was a touch of the "old
Adam that the speakers religion in
creased with the speakers prosperity
But the Egyptians are instnctively a
religious race and Abbas himself is a
deeply religious man, scrupulousiy at
tentive to all Moslem observances.
He is always the central figure at
the ceremony of the Mammal" when
the holy carpet arrives and the fresh
one departs for Mecca. During the
Ramadan, the month of fasting the
khedive goes to prayers at the mos
ques of Omar and Saidna-el-Hu
and at his highness' levee in Ramadan
it is noticeable that he neither takes
coffee nor offers it to his guests as is
otherwise the invariable custom.
few of the gray-haired among his
subjects look back with regret to the
tinsel days of Ismail, when trickery.
corruption and lax morality walked un-
checked and unashamed and when So
ciety was almost exclusively official.
But nowadays increasing commerce
and extending industry are the promin-
ent signs in Egypt. For the honest
merchant, the hard-working fellah and
for the general community no less.
there have never been better times
than those of our guest-the reigning
khedive.
The Grit-advocate., 1906-01-12

nature is Immediately apparent in his
talk. After the manner of theN,ast, he
gesticulates, of course. But in public
he does not laugh or even smile much.
His greetings to his people as he
passes among them are the most at,
tentive and surely the most dignitied
of any sovereign. He gives the utmost
devotion to all his duties and there is
a letter box in the wall of the palace
into which any Egyptian may deposit
a written grievance.
Business and Pleasure.
Twice or thrice in the week he
whirls along the Mohammed Ali boule-
ward of Cairo with his couple of out
riders and small escort 1t is not often
later than 8 o'clock when he reaches
Abdeen for the business Of state,
which is always transacted at the pal
ace in the capital.
The khedive's country seat of Koub-
beh lies seven miles out In its ex-
quisitely kept gardens and avenues the
early morning hours are beautiful be,
yond description. The khedive has no
more absorbing interest than the culti-
vation of his estates. AS a horticul
turist he is less ardent than his uncle,
Prince Hussein, but arboricuIture and
agriculture on the most scientific lines
he has made his own. The khedival
Agricultural society (Which for some
years past has had its permanent and
very handsome buildings and inclos'
ures at Gizeh) he never misses. And,
in particular, he takes keen interest in
the farm implements and sheds.
A sportsman Abbas II. is not. The
horses that take him into Cairo on his
feeting missions of state are handsome

and very fast. But amid the cleaning
green bersim fields of Koubbeh have
sGseral times met the khedive quite
alone, driving himself at jogtrot, not
looking. as jehu does. between his
horses ears, but on either hand at his
crops, after the fashion of the husband
man.

Mind reading, in the opinion of Miss

on account OF her exhibition of tele-
pathy at the Grand opera House, can
be easily acquired but the Miss Of

usage of the power chiefly on account
OF the propensity TO apply it to dishon-
