TO TAKE A REST.
Frank Grear, Closing Out Business
North Topeka's Live Wire.

Owing to i'll health of Mr.. Frank
Grear, proprietor of the New Era de-
partment store of North Topeka. has
decided to close out his business and is
retiring from business.
Mr.. Grear has been in business in
Topeka for over ten years and, having
gone through three floods knows
something of the depression arising
from these disasters. But always snil-
ing and resourceful. has always come
out on top.
The close application to business has
impaired his health. hence the retire
ment. AS a booster for North Topeka
Mr.. Grear has no equal. Such men
as he are valuable to the community
and town in which they live. We hope
he will be able, after a short rest, to
be back in the business harness again.

his diction full of ease and grace that
charmed. There is, however, one
trouble with the play. It does not tell
a true stage story. 1t is possible but
not probable. Think of the actor of
today giving up a chance to star for
some actressl Think of it, in these
days when every or almost every star
of the male. sex is ready to, throw
things at his leading lady should she
happen to get better press notice than
he. Just think of it. However, your
Humble Servant is human and it
takes. Besides the leading lady, Miss
Izetta Jewel. is no false gem. She
sparkles with radiance that will win
her a place ere long near the top rung
of the ladder of fame.

of the miracles she wrought. AS he
fancied that this woman might be SER
viccahle to him in the project he had
conceived. he made more minute in
quiries, and requested to be informed
more particularly who that holy wo-
man was, and what sort of miracles
she performed
What" said the person whom he
addressed, have YOU never seen or
heard of her? She is the admiration
of the whole town, for her fasting. her
austerities, and her exemplary life.
Except Mondays and Fridays. she new

thOS" days on which she comes into
the town she does an infinite deal of
good; for there is not a person who
is diseased but she puts her hand on
him and cures him"
Having ascertained the place where
the hermitage of this holy woman was,
the magician went at night. and plung-
ing a puniard into her heart, killed this
good woman. In the morning he dyed
his face of the same hue as hers, and
arrayng himself in her garb, taking
her veil. the large necklace she wore
round her neck. and her stick, went
straight to the palace of Aladdin.
rs soon as the people saw the holy
woman, as they imagined him to be-
they presently gathered about him in
a great crowd. Some begged his bless

more reserved only the hem of his gar

ease. stopped for him tu lay his hands
upon them; which he did. mutterinG

He came at last to the square before

noise were So great that the princess
who was in the hall of fnur-and- tw"n-

was the matter. one of her women
told her it was a great crowd of people
collected about the holy woman Ia he
cured of diseases by the imposition of

THE END.
Military Power of China.

China's army is the subject OF Soou
deal of interest, not that it is formid-
able. but because of the Importance OF
China as factor i'm oriental politics.
and of the possibilities that lie in the
DEVELOPMENT of her military strength.
The army is said to include, all told,
and as it now stands between 100000
and 600. 900 men. Most of them, now
ever. are poorly trained and poorly
equipped. and ineffective except Tor
suppressing upriSings of unarmed ma
tves. Nevertheless. there are III chi
ma probably 10000 effective soldiers,
trained i'm military mamcuVerS ana
practices and armed with modern IL
fes and rapid fire artillery. They are
somewhat intelligent. can read anu
write. and really know something OF
modern warfare. What is OF Stlll more
importance, they are OiiiCered by men
who have studied in military colleges
abroad or those in China in when
foreign instructors are employed But
even if China had an effective army oi
a million men, it would be of no great
service to her under present cohdl-
tions. To render good service an ar

PART v.


Now it happened that shortly after
Aladdin had been transported by the
slave of the ring to the neighborhood
of his palace, one of the attendants OF
the Princess Buddir al Buddoor, look
ing through the window, perceived him
and instantly told her mistress. The
princess, who could not believe the joy
full tidings, hastened herself to the
window, and seeing Aladdin, immedi-
ately opened it. The noise of opening
the window made Aladdin turn his
head that way, and perceiving the
princess, he saluted her with an air
that expressed his joy. ITO lose no
time" said she to him, Il have sent
to have the private door opened Tor
you; enter and come up"
The private door, which was just
under the princess's apartment, was
soon opened and Aladdin conducted up
into the chamber. 1t is impossible to
express the joy of both at seeing each
other after so cruel a separation. At
ter embracing and shedding tears OF
Joy, they sat down. and Aladdin said,
Il beg of you. princess, to tell me
what is become of an old lamp which
stood upon a shelf in my robing-
chamber"
Alas" answered the princess, Il
was afraid our misfortune might be
owing to that lamp, and what grieves
me most is, that have been the cause
of it. l was foolish enough to eX-
change the old lamp for a new one.

liar testimonies of her extreme pleas
ure After a short interval, devoted to
mutual explanations of all that had
happened. the sultan restored Aladdin
to his favor, and expressed his reslct
for the apparent harshness with which
he had treated him. MY son." said he,
"be not displeased at my proceedings
against you; they arose from my pa
ternal love, and therefore YOU ought TO
forgive the eXcesses to which it hur-
ried me-" sire" replied Aladdin, Il
have not the least reason to complain
of your conduct, since you did nothing
but what your duty required. This in
famous magician, the basest of men,
was the sole cause of my misfortune
The African magician, who was thus
twice foiled in his endeavor to ruin
Aladdin, had a younger brother, who
was as skillful a magician as himself,
and exceeded him in wickedness and
hatred of mankind. BY mutual agree
ment they communicated with each
other once a year, however widely sep
arate might be their places Of resi-
dence from each other. The younger
brother not having received as usual
his annual communication, prepared to
take a horoscope and ascertain MS
brothers proceedings. He, as we'll as
his brother, always carried a geomah-
tic square instrument about him. he
prepared the sand, cast the points,
and drew the figures. On examining
the planetary crystal, he found that
his brother was no longer living, but
had been poisoned; and by other OBJ
seryation, that he was in the capital OF
the kingdom of China; also, that the
person who had poisoned him was OF
mean birth, though married to prin-
cess, a sultan's daughter
When the magician had informed
himself of his brothers fate. he re-
solved Immediately to revenge ms
death, and at once departed for emma;
where, after crossing plains. rivers,
mountains, deserts, and long tract OF
country without delay, he arrived al
ter incredible fatigues. When he came
to the capital of China, he took
lodging at a khan. His magic art soon
revealed to him that Aladdin was the
person who had been the cause OF the
death of his brother. He had heard
too. all the persons of repute in the
city talking of a woman called Fatima,
who was retired from the world, and
