There is popular impression, says
an English publication, that Germany
is the chief beer producing and con-
Stunning nation in the world. AS a
matter of fact, the honor is divided
between the United States and Belgium
the first in point of production, with
j, 561, 204 600 gallons annually; the
latter for consumption, with an aver
age of 4O.1 gallons per head of popu-
lation per annum.
But Germany runs her American
friends pretty closely for the first place
on the question of output. No fewer
than ], 512, 346, 900 gallons of the popu-
lar beverage are brewed in the Father
land in twelve months.
Great Britain comes third on the
list, with 1,253, 23O, 900 gallons, and,
Incredible as it may seem, the English
consume more beer than their Teutonic
rival-28.8 gallons per head per
annum, against the Germans 27.2
Some excuse for Germany's appar-
ent inferierity as a beer-drinking
nation may be found in the TACT that,
to great extent, wine replaces malt
liquor in South Germany.

Meteor.

Last Friday, 4th instant, at dusk,
several different parties saw a beauti-
ful meteor speeding in northeast de
reetion. Some saw II suddenly burst
out, for all the world like a skyrocket,
scatter brilliant white stars. Had il
been about an hour later the meteor
would certainly have been noticed by
many more of our citizens, for II would
no doubt, on mO0nless night. have
called the attention Of many. Since
those who saw IL burst heard no report,
IL must have been too far Off To be
heard, and may have fallen between
here and Perry.
We wonder II il might not have been
some loose hair or feather out of Dan
lePs comets tail. II any one finds it,

air she asked, Would you be sorry if he were so? "
She would not trust her tongue with the word.
Rhasneh laid her lovely head in the child's lap.
" 1t would kill me altogether if he WERE" she sobbed
Il would drown myself in the Bosporus and let the

and each needed individual destruction.
But Xeny did not have the blood of the old Byzan-
tine Emperors in her veins without being able to
grasp opportunity snake charmer seizes a
snake NO he has not been, she cried not
once!"
Rhasneh received this assurance with implicit
faith the tension of her feelings relaxed and she
became lost in a revere. Would she really some
day sit the knees of that splendid man and hear
him say the things she had imagined Monsieur
Stasopouo saying to Chrysanthy? Then she would
have a SOUL she thought; for Rhasneh out of the
religion of her fathers, and the bits of other religions
she had acquired from books, had patched up sys-
tenn of philosophy of her own, and partly accepting
the Turkish doctrine that women have no souls,
had decided that they acquired them when they
were truly loved by man. 1t was pretty idea,
and more comforting to a beautiful maid than to

You will" Rhasneh answered, and did not for
an instant doubt that she spoke the truth. The

why isn't she?" the child asked
Do you remember how she used to laugh before
she married."
"Oh, yes Xeny assented; she was always
laughing and singing
Now she has beautiful clothes, and she tells of
all the balls she goes and the dinners she gives
but does she laugh she used tor
Xeny considered the question: NO" she
swered, when she felt that she could give author
tative opinion and she does not play with as
she used to-" This latter seemed to Xeny a worse
sign than the other.
And she is not SO beautiful as she was" Rhasneh
continued convincingly, and every year she will be
less and less beautiful and then She will die, and
not have soul, and after her death she will become
ashes. But Chrysanthy laughs more now than ever
before, because she married man she loves, and
her soul grows within her. and when she dies she
will become golden flower and her soul will be
pearl on it like dewdrop.'
Xeny looked at Rhasneh with wide open amaze
ment Hanum Rhasneh, have you a
flower like that" she asked.
Rhasneh shook her head. Those flowers grow
only in Heaven and Allah is the gardener"
They both lost themselves in the thoughts her
words evoked. Rhasneh thought she would be
rose, and that her soul would be diamond and
Xeny thought that she, too, must sometime have

she died And these two wise chill
dren, of two different sides of the
earth, sat lost in day dreams, while
the sun quietly sank down behind
the hills across the placid waters of
the Bosporus.
On her way home that evening
Xeny was still filled with her own
thoughts, as she marched away on
her sturdy little legs. She hardly
thought of her ten daughters in the
arms of her maid. She looked
beyond the Bosporus and saw the
river with no beginning and no
end; and there in the garden of
Heaven she was helping Allah to
water the immortal flowers.

p Xeny nodded, yet not with the eager
alacrity she had displayed before. Some
thing was troubling her
Rhasneh lifted Xeny to her lap. What is the
matter?" she asked with swift intuition.
Hanum Rhasneh" Xeny said earnestly, you
know that Chrysanthy used to give letters for
Mr.. Stasopoulo, and he gave me some for her, just
the way you and Mr.. Weir do. They were very
two are now. Them the childs eyes filled with
tears. Il never saw Mr.. Stasopouo again, and
Chrysanthy went away-and oh! Hanum Rhasneh,
Chrysanthy is terribly, terribly unhappy and that
she is as good as dead"
DO you love me, Xeny?" Rhasneh said. DO
you love much?'

girls neck in protestation of affection

"HERE are those who consider
that from the island of Prin-
kipo one obtains the most
enchanting view in the world. If
mountains, and water, and many
curious craft upon the water, and
many different people on the land
may compose a view that merits
such praise, it surely deserves it.
At any rate, few well to do dwellers
in Constantinople or travellers
through it neglect to take one of
the little steamers that wind in and
out among the islands of the Pro-
points, and to stop off at some one
of them for a stay of greater or less
length. The cafes at these islands
generally overlook the water, and
are alive with gay polyglottery
of people such as may perhaps be
found nowhere else in SO happy a
degree. Sunday morning is the
gala time of the week Then those
that have sailed down on Saturday
night begin to congregate in the
waterside cafes for light refresh

anthy is not unhappy, but very,
Mdman did not tell you lie; but she
] do. Chrysanthy is the most happy
person in the world, and she is not
alone, for Mr.. Stasopoulo is with her
and loves her He holds her on his
knees as | hold you, and tells her
pretty, pretty things which make the
flowers grow more beautiful and the
sky bluer and the birds to sing-and
Allah He smiles because He loves
them so"
As Rhasneh with her Oriental,
flowery language was drawing pic
ture of happiness of Chrysanthy, the
troubled face of Xeny changed to a
smiling one. And this pictured hap
piness of Chrysanthy being very con-
tagious, these two children embraced
and laughed and swayed back and
forth in each others arms. About
them, all seemed happiness: the
luxurious apartment of Rhasneh, the
distant singing of the boatmen on
the Bosporus, the autumn SUN
streaming in at the window. Rhas-
neh was quite intoxicated with
Chrysanthy's state, which she had
con jured up; but Xeny, though car
RED away with Rhasneh's enthusi-
assn, still held in her mind the ques-
tioning attitude she had begun with.
Will you too go away with Mr..
Weir"
Rhasneh stopped laughing, and her
little hand futtered to her breast.
She could only nod.
And" pursued Heny, will he

and hid her face in the back of the
little girls neck where no eyes might
see the warm blood rushing to her
face.
Il should not be ashamed of it,
Xeny continued placidly. Il think
if you did not want him, should like
to marry him myself, when l was
grown up. If he was a Turk and |
was one too, we could both marry
him. You would like that, wouldn't

Perhaps in PAmeriqne they have two

A horrible thought flashed into
Rhasneh's mind. Perhaps, indeed,

money.
Despite the fact that only three
horses went 10 the post in the second
race, the talent couldn't pick the win

on. Until the last jump 1t looked as
though the good thing" would coup.
Then he became leg weary, however,
and Alamansor, closing strongly. won
cleverly, with Jimmy Lane second and

The third race was victory for the
talent, but as the selected one, Okenlte,
was at odds on there was not much
gathering. For two-thirds Of the jour-
ney the favorite was back in the ruck,
but when IL came to real racing he
was there with the goods, and at the
end he won easily from Glenecho. with
Druid an easy third.
About the hardest blow the talent re-
ceived was in the fourth race. Cres-

to do the right thing. and she was
backed for thousands Of dollars. She
was out In front until the stretch was
reached, when Melbourne came along
