MY dear misguided young friend, you

have fallen into the error of installing
New York's yellow streak for New York

wide and about a quarter of an inch deep,
is a whole town. There are quite con-
siderable number of persons who. II they
had their way about it, would put my
city down in the maps merely as Great

An exceedingly ugly man, says Jami
was once in the mosque, asking pardon
of Allah for his sins, and praying to
be delivered from the fires of hell. One
who overheard his prayer said to him,
Wherefore. o friend, wouldst thou cheat
hell Of such a countenance? Art thou
reluctant to burn up face like that?"
Once again. the story writer tells US
that a certain person with hideous
nose was once on time wooing a wo-
man. Describing himself to her, and
trying to make an attractive picture
he said. IT am man devoid OF light
ness and frivolity, and ] am patient in
bearing afflictions!"
"Ayer said the woman. "wert thou
not patient in bearing of affections, thou
hadst never endured thy nose these forty
years.
All of which is more witty than kind.
Hardly less sharp is this next tale:
Bahlul, we are told, once came into the
presence of the famed Caliph of Bagdad,
the Eood Haroun-al- Raschid- One of
the zizers accosted him, saying. Re
joice. Bahlul, at these good tidingsl
The Prince Of the Faithful has made
thee ruler over apes and swine.''
Take my orders. then" quickly retort-
ed Bahlul, ''for surely thou art of my

me today engage In pillage and carry
off all that I can find. tomorrow ] shall
be willing to enter hell fire with Pharoah
the pehsecutor!'
| For some reason or other, the man of
| Jam seems to have a deep detestation
OF school teachers II one may Judge
| from the many charp tests he directs
| against them. For example. thus: A
teacher. he says. whose son had fallen
in and was at the point OF death, bade
them send for the washer Of corpses to
wash his SON. But" they objected,
l.''he Is not dead yet!'
Never mind" said the teacher; The
win be dead by the time they have fin

Again. they said to the son of another
teacher, What pity thou art such q

Naturally, the fear of being isolated
at the settlement caused the natives
to thwart segregation. Generally 1t was
done by secreting their afflicted, yet

of severing the ties of the strongest af-

abnegation where the clean die there

grew up the belief among the natives
