Ing on the eason why he believed
the council should allow the health

where men sleep.
Mr.. McNutt told the council that he
has been endeavoring to discover
some law that would prohibit persons
at the meetings smoking in the room
and splitting on the floor since he was
made health officer. He added that
he had an inspector from the State
board examine the room, but the lat

chamber complied with the State

The Turkish Army

Every Mohammedan subject In
Turkey is liable to service and re-
mains liable for 25 years. At 81 the
young Turk enters the active army,
the Nizam, and remains in ii for three
years. He must then serve six years
in the reserve, called the Tchtrad, and
after this he remains nine years in
the army reserve, called the Redif,
which resembles the German Land
wehr. This reserve has a second line
called the Mustafls, in which the citi-
zen liable to service is finally en-
rolled.
Every year produces about 100000
men liable to service, and OF this
number 10000 are enrolled as re-
cruits. The remainder. that is to say
the least effective. are given drill,
and they may perhaps be compared
with the extra reservists of the first
class in Germany. They finally find
their way in TO the Redif. Altogether
Turkey can place loco. 600 men IN
the field. and as far as material Is
concerned. German officers who have
instructed Turkish troops declare
that there is not an army in the world
that would not rejoice to get such
men.

Shadow-time's here, and the somber
light falls
Softly and gently against bedroom
walls.
Put by the fairy-tale, pictures and
toys,
sleep-time is here for the wee girls
and boys.
Close up the story books now with
their rhymes
Tales of Kris Krinkle and Christmas
bell chimes;
Dusk throws it's mantle, and night
visions creep,
Now for the ''nighties" and vision of
sleep!
Bring to them dreams of sweet peace,
as we go
Stepping so lightly on soft tippy-toe.
Play with them there in tho Dream
land SO far;
Light up their way with the bright
morning star.
Blow softly, drowsily, winds from the
west
Snuggle them close to the old Sand
Mans breast;
Bring to them laughter and smiles in
your land;
Guide them and guard them wherever
they stand.
All of their trials and cares are forgot,
Exiled and banished from that fairy
spot;
All that they see is the glitter and
CLEAN
Glistening there by the Sunderland
stream.
None of the stresses of childhood
which fret,
There in that magical country are
met;
Happiness, pleasure and freedom
abound.
Nothing but merriment ever is found.
Shadow times here, and the sun dips
from sight;
flushed is the world as it whispers
good night"
Put by the day dreams and all of the
play,
Shadow-ti times here with the ending
of day.
Open the little white cots in the hall;
Hark to the Sand Mans mysterious
CALL
Shadow-ti times here as they bend low
in prayer,
And drowsness comes to the closed
eyelids there.
