The narrow streeNs are cleaner than
most Turkish cities can boast, and
there are really fine and imposing
buildings. These are mostly tobacco
warehouses, or belong to tobacco mag
mates, for this weed must at least be
given the credit for the present pros
perity of this rising town, which is
the great tobacco port and manufac-

Left Record of Good Deeds.

One Of the nineteenth century WON
en- who was considered a radical in
her time was Amalie Sieveking, a ma
tive of Hamburg, born Of a wealthy
and cultured family. She taught just
because she loved to teach. and wrote
two books, called Commentaries on
the Bible," which provoked great dis
trust of her in conservative circles
When an epidemic of cholera broke
out in Hamburg she offered to serve
In the pest hospital, and thereafter
her life was identified with social
work of various kinds She had ad-
vanced ideas about housing. about
ameliorating the condition of the poor,
and about hospital service, all Of
which were reflected in the philan-
thropic work that she carried on un-
til her death In 1859.

In Lindsay row, and entirely unlike
the studios usually occupied by other

near the table which he used as a

at his extraordinary activity, as he
darted backward and forward to look
at both painting and model from his
point Of view at the extreme end OF
the long studio He always used
brushes of large size, with very long
handles. three feet in length, and held
them from the end with his arms
stretched to their full extent. Each
touch was laid on with great firmness,
and his physical strength enabled him
to do without the assistance of mahl-

stood from the canvas allowed him to
have the whole Of large picture In

Woman's Fairy Eootf

The mother Of a family was grievinS
over the size OF her daughters feet,
for indeed Cinderella's distinctive
charm seems to have departed with
the tiny rosebud mouth once neces-
sary to feminine perfection. The, lit
tie foot with the arched instep was
very fascinating, one OF the most ro-
mantle of fair ladies' graces, yet the
short, narrow frocks and low buckled
shoes of this season have revealed
very clearly its practical extinction.
Do shoemakers still stock "twos" ex-
cept for children? Even the -four
is growing rare, and girls take "tives,"
skies" and "seyens" without blush
Ing. AS women are bigger, their feet
must be bigger, and if in the future
they are to be equal to men in every
thing else, one srpposes the size OF
their boots will have to be included.
II woman's fairy foot becomes a myth,
as her stature wakes so much higher
than mans heart, what Is to happen
to the poets? Perhaps they also will
presently be history, since nobody
reads poetry nowadays.

Set Your Burden Down.

Following is an extract from a III
tie article In Farm and Fireside: IAN
aged, weary-looking woman, with 3
heavy basket upon her arm, entered
the train at one OF the way stations.
Carrying her burden with some DIFF
hculty down the aisle, she found an
empty seat of which she took posses
sion. Instead Of placing her burden
upon the floor or upon the seat beside
her, she continued to hold it, shifting
Its weight now and then from one
knee to the other A working man
across the aisle watched her for some
time In silence, but at last when he
could stand 1t no longer he reached
over and touched the woman upon the
arm Madam, he said, If you will
set your basket down the train will
carry both 1t and you How much of
human nature there is in this little in
cident! Some people never try to-

has decreed shall be theirs They In
