Some peoples idea of goodness
amounts to nothing more than not
being bad. Such goodness is, Of
course, better than no goodness at
all but being negative it amounts to
but little. The true goodness is pos
tive and active, ever seeking to
reach others and help them.

Walter Board, charging the latter

Board was acquitted by the jury.
The case attracted much attention.

ascended and has grown weaker and
weaker, requiring now nearly three
times as much to sweeten cup of
coffee.
If man regards his daily duties
as so much drudgery to be unwilling
ly and Ill be performed his whole
career spells failure. But If he re-
CARDS duty as privilege and takes
it up with the determination to do
it in the best possible manner he is
on the upward path and on the high
way to ultimate success.

THE BAzAARS OF
OLD BAGDAD
Continued from Page -

k1OuCluuSO lTOIu rage G9
And all around the strife for life
keeps up.
A boy of six is selling sweets, made
from date juice and pistache nuts,
and screams in shrill voice the merits
of his sticky, fly-catching mess.
A Persian pilgrim, stranded far
from that dear Teehran, is offering
for sale a beautiful antique rug,
worth 500 on Fifth avenue: he asks
80 Medjidies-$26. I have relieved
his distress, and shall place the Per-
sian rug among my souvenirs of this
sojourn in Bagdad. With it / have
a tear-bottle, which I myself picked
up among the sandy, wind-blown
ruins of ancient Babylon. Mourn
ers cried into these bottles, and bur-
led them in the grave with the body
of the departed. And I have a red
seal, with lion-like creature en-
graved on it, which was found at
Niffer, where the University of Penn
sylvania once had an excavating
party. I shall make a ring of my
find.
Silversmiths are clever here, as all
over the east. These at Bagdad keep
shop in small, narrow recesses, so
built that in case of riots or inva-
sions of the town, they can quickly
lock up shop and leave their wares
safe from harm. They made me
dozen coffee spoons, with coins for
bowls, all silver, for $40.
Here mere might prevails. There
is no law of the road, no traffic regu-
lations. Slow moving camels do not
keep close to the curb, as the police
would make them do If they walked
up Broadway or Market street in the
U. s. A. Today saw a huge, shut
fie footed camel, loaded with a long
beam. showing his ponderous way in
solently through the crowded ba-
zaar. High up on his back sat his
even more impudent driver, camel
club in hand, cycling with contempt
the throng below who walked. The
end of the long beam, protruding to
| one side of the camel, struck and
capsized a tottering old woman who
bore on her head a huge basket of
dates. In the crash the dates went
rolling in the dust of the street, be-
meath the feet OF men, donkeys and
dogs. 'Pick 'em up, old grill" yelled
| the evil-visaged camel man as he
chuckled at the havoc he had
wrought.
This is how Bagdad's bazaars look
to an American girl-who devoutly
wishes right now that she might catch
a pay-as-you-enter car marked
Through" and ride from Arabia.
How I long, as / walk amid this jar
gon, this dust and these Arabic signs
with their wierd, skating characters,
for just one glimpse of good old
American soda-water counter, or even
one of those atrocious billboards that
''deface our scenery"-good old bill
boards, good old everything in the
good old U. S. A.!
1 wish I had a matinee ticket
And pounds of candy.

P|NCHOT TO JOIN
MIGHTY HUNTER
DEPOSED FORESTER ON HIS WAY
TO EUROPE WHERE HE HAS
BEEN SUMMONED TO CONFER
WITH COL. ROOSEVELT.

Washington, March 23.-Gifford
Pinchot, deposed forester of the
United States, is hurrying to Europe
to meet Roosevelt at Roosevelt's re-
quest. This fact was revealed today
by a close friend of Pinchot's who
declared that the former forester was
summoned by cablegram from Khar-i
toum.
Pinchot Is now nearing England
and it was planned that he was to
join the former president at Paris.
1t could not DE learned whether Pin
chot is to stay in Paris until Roosu-
velt's arrival there or whether he is
to proceed to Naples to meet the colo
mel.
Roosevelt is not due In Paris for
nearly a month. Pinchot said before
he sailed that he had planned to meet
Roosevelt before the latter sailed for
Africa. The trip, he intimated, was
merely the consummation of the plans
already formed.
Urgent Message Sent.
The message sent Pinchot was very
urgent, it is declared, and it is ibeliev-
ed that the hasty departure of the
former head Of the forest service in
dicates that the meeting will not be
in Paris, but that Pinchot will hasten
on to meet him en- route.
Roosevelt has refused steadfastly
to discuss any phase of the Balm
ger-Pinchot controversy, although he
made exhaustive inquiries regarding
the trouble from correspondents sent
to meet him. 1t is believed that he
desires his information at first hand
and that he has sent for Pinchot to
hear the former forester's side of the
question.
| Pinchot stood as close to former
President Roosevelt as any man in
Washington when Garfield was secre-
| tary of the interior. He was one Of
the famous tennis cabinet and his
counsels in matters pertaining to for
ests and government lands were given
great consideration by the president.
| Politicians here believe that Pin
! chot will also inform Roosevelt on
other political matters.

Rear of Estabrook Furniture
Store Swept by Flames
For a Time it Looked as if
Fire would Sweep
Block

A fire which started in the
rear of the Estabrook & Olson
furniture store Tuesday night
came near being a dlsasterOus
one. and had there been the
least bit of a breeze at the time
the entire block would have un-
doubtedly been wiped out. The
rear Of the furniture store was
gutted by flames, as was also
the morgue and frame building
adjoining. The fire when first
noticed was burning at the rear
of the furniture store but before
the fire department could arrive
the flames had spread through
the storeroom and the morgue
was also in flames. Hard work
on the part of the fire depart
ment checked the flames from
entering the main part of the
furniture store.
The damage to the stock in
the rear of the furniture store
was almost complete. A large
part of the undertaking stock in
the morgue was also damaged.
The loss is partly covered by in
surance.
