Following the invariable rule laid down
by King Ak-Sar-Ben /. Sunday was OBJ
served throughout the kingdom OF ouivera
and especially was this true in the imperial
city of Cibola, in which are being car
ried out the prelminaries to the coming OF
the king. All revelry was stopped: the
gates to the carnival city were closed: the
joyous thousands who had eongregatcd 10
make merry In the name OF the king,
thronged the churches and paid homage to
One mightier, or they wandered up and
down the broad thoroughfares OF the Inn
perial city and marveied at the great
changes wrought by the hand OF man un-
der the prosperous reign OF King Ak-sar-
Ben XII
And well might they marvel. Never did
ruler leave to his successor a realm
more prosperous. During no reign of the
house of Ak-sar-Ben has there been such
material growth in the welfare of a
people than under the present beloved
monarch. In this, the chief city. un-
| slightly plots of ground are covered with
magnificent structures: magnificent struc-
| lures have been torn down to make room
| for structures of greater maGnincence and
grandeur; a people prosperous and happy
and ambitious from all over the realm
for greater things win welcome the new
ruler and bid a farewell to the one about
to so.
