According to a Turkish diplomat

According to a Turkish diplomat
now In this country, the Turkish
women no longer keep their faces
covered In public. They go about as
they please. and make goo-goo eyes
and flirt Just as women do elsewhere.
This Is a great reform which Is said
to be pleasing to both sexes. but 1t Is
not likely to create a rush to Turkey
for a beauty exhibition. The most
beautiful women in the world are not
to be found in Turkey-not In ex.
travagant numbers. Now that they
can show themselves, however. 1t may
be expected they will take more pains
to enhance their charms.

Daily Consular and Trade Report, there came
shipment of American mules which, by those COM

They were purchased by well-known local farm
err who toured the state Of Missouri to get them on
behalf of Brice Bros of Springs who hold the CON

corporation. The shipment consists of 124 mules,
all of which are four to seven years of age and
stand Is hands in height this being the stipulation
made by the corporation, who further stipulated
that they must all be bred in the state of Missouri
which is in such high repute as a mule breeding
country.
A representative of the South African News had
an opportunity of seeing the shipment and he
states that they are a magnificent lot and have
stood the trip from America we'll Seven days were
required for their railway transportation TO the
American port, 80 days at sea- with three days
to Johannesburg.
On occasion a heavy was shipped and
portions of the mule boxes washed away. The cap
tain of the vessel slowed the vessel down for three
hours while the whole crew erected other boxes. On
the whole voyage there was not casualty, and,
considering the time the mules had been the

would be made" The buyer stated that mules were
very dear in Missouri, R40 (s19466) each being
considered average price, and while in Missouri
he saw one pair which realized $4,000
