THE KHEDIvE AS \ POET.

1t is not generally known that the
Khedive of Egypt is poet of no mean
nrder--in Arabic. of course. Those
who have read his verses speak Of
them with enthusiasm. Abbas Hilmi's
poetry Is melodous, lofty in theme and
full Of allegory, as are most Arabian
poems. In the course of n former visit
TO England the Khedive sent the late
Queen Victoria a magnificent boquet
with one OF his poems. Here is a
rough pHraphraso Of one of the
verses: ~ send you this boquet as Il
testimony of the love of the Egyptian
people. Each rose, each lily, each jas
mine, represents the heart of an Egyp-
tan, and Its perfume is the incense OF
a prayer which mounts to heaven for
thee O powerful Queen, o Flower OF
Queens. London Globe.

Many Of our best physicians, who
only a few years ago ridiculed mental
healing, are beginning TO adopt the
prinCiple-so far as they know how-in
their practise, especially the power OF
suggestion. They are finding that their
patients are often more affected by
mental medicine by their calls" their
announcement and good cheer than by
their pills They are finding, too, that
the mental attitude OF tho patient has
everything to do with tho effect OF the
disease. that It often proves the turn
ing-poin In q critical crisis The result
OF an this mental influence is a very
marked failing of Ia tho usa of drugs.

The average number of indictments
for violation of the liquor law. If
he wanted to take averages during
those years. and they would help us
in ascertaning the efficiency of any
officer in prosecuting this class of
criminals, was 212. while the whole
number of offenders brought to bar
in 1907. was 142 said the whole num-
Der of offenders. I don't mean that.
l mean to say that the number OF in
dictments found for the year 1907, was
142. The number of individuals indict-
ed would be much less than that be-
cause several Of them were indicted
three or four times on the same evil
dence and at the same time.
Now it costs more to indict S29 GRIM
mails as was done under Republican
administration in 1902, than it did to
prosecute 142 as was done in 1907. 1t
would cost nearly three times as
much. In 1902 the county received s44.-
