free trips to Hawaii and return, the

Bismark, who was for 80 years the
controlling power in European poltlcs'
and whose name is identified with the
unification OF Germany, began nus
diplomatic career as secretary TO the
German legation in Russia; the salary
was small, but the opportunity was
great. Had he just earned his salary,
he might have held on to perpetual
clerk ship, but acting upon what every
successful man has always realized
that the larger part OF good man
pay is outside of his salary, he set MN
self to work, on the secrets OIL

application to the details of diplomacy
hts services were recognized by the
home government as more important
than those of the ambassador himself

THE HORSE
(By silman Ben Ibrahim.l

T N THE Arabian language the same
word means horse and fortress.
= because to the rider, the horse Is
a veritable fortress. The horseman's
bullet, passing between the ears OF
his mount, strikes the enemy, while he
himself is protected by his steed.
This fortress is built on the wings
of the wind and moves with the speed
of a cloud before a hurricane.
And the heart of the horse was filed
by the Most High with the same feel
fngs as those of man, whose INSOFAR
able companion it was destined to be.
To Ben Merzoug was given the sur
name Ben Couda. the son Of the mare
because. as soon as he had been
weaned, his mother placed him on the
back of a mare, which carried him and
rocked him like a cradle, and before
he was able to walk he was already
fine llorseman.
Later, when he had grown up to be
a man, mounted on his faithful Azreg,
he became famous for his daring all
through Hodna, where fearless riders
are countless.
1t was beautiful to see him standing
in his stirrups, and speeding by like
the shadow of ghost and inspiring
the women of wild cries Of mad enthu-
siasm.
II was magnificent to look upon him.
when he knew that the slender Fera-
hoha. his cousin, followed him with her
ewes, peeping through the curtains Of
her palanquin.
Azreg sometimes bore its master
through wild hunts and toward the
maddening fatas morganas OF the des-
ert.
They were near Mdoukal at the time
when the pilgrims crowd the trail to
visit the Koubba of Sidi Mohammed Ell
Hadj. when a letter reached him from
Bou Saada, his cousins country.
.sWet your head at MdoukaL" 1T SAID
"and return to Bou Saada before 1t dry
if YOU wish TO see your cousin before
her body is given back to earth.
Horrifed at this news Ben Merzoug
hurriedly saddled his horse and salo'
1T is your night, oh. Arzeg' ana tne
horse replied: ''Oh, master you shall
be at Bou Saada at dawn.
And they rode fast and far, making
two long DAYS journeys in one night
The first rays of the sun were just
striking the house, when the dying
Ferahoha sat up and cried; Azres
whinny struck my ear.
Though he did not believe her, her
brother opened the door and saw Ben
Merzoug and greeted him, exciallllins
in surprise: .,a
"How is it possible that you couio

the air or on the surface of the sands?"
praise Azreg, who eats up distances
with his slender limbs, and take care
90 hin, before you think Of me.
And the grateful Ben Merzoug kissed
the white spot on his horses forehead,
before he turned it over to the negro
Khamnes and went inside the house.
When his eyes met Ferohonas' tne
sick girl tried to rise, but fell pack
exhausted.
Ben Merzcug took her head between
HIS hands and said TO her:
every creature must pay tribute
to sickness, but spring us coming 70
give us all new strength. If 1t pleases

the vast plains, you resting in your
