She Couldn't Say Carriers.

The Sweet Young Thing entered the

around in a helpless Way for few
moments approached floor walker.
What can we do for you. miss?"
asked the floor walker.
The Sweet Young Thing blushed
and then said:
where can l find those elastic
bands capable Of being elongated and
put around the lower extremities
Of the locomotive members to keep the
proper position and the required atti-
tude for the habiliments Of their

Ten minutes later strong men led
the floor walker away. He was a raw.

coNsULs LIVE IN LUXURY
TO Constantinople Have
Gorgeous villas

IT. J. Dwight in seribner's Magazine.
Constantinople is, believe. the sole
diplomatic post to which summer resi-
dences are attached. Each envoy also
has a steam launch for keeping in
touch with the Sublime Porte, 10 miles
away. and a dispatch boat is detailed
to each embassy except the Persian.
These dignities came about very natu-
rally. by reason of the epidemics and
disorders which used to break out in
the city, the habit of Constantinople
to Transport itself bodily to the Bos-
phorus during the summer and the
generosity of the sultans. The English.
French and German governments all
own beautiful estates at Therapia, pre-
sented to them by different sultans,
while the Russians are magnificently
established at an adjoining village.
Their great hillside park is perfect

water is scarcely visible from 1t. If
I might choose I would rather be the

Gill already is represented by three pub
lished books of poetry, and critics who
count say that 1t Is real poetry. His first
volume, which he published at 19 and of
which over 5000 copies were sold, was
called, "Gleanings from q Navvy's Scrap
Book" and his second, Songs of a
Navy" and both of them have met with
almost unstinted praise. MacGilrs new
volume, which he calls, Songs of the
Dead End" has Just made it's appearance
and Is being quoted from copiously by big
literary reviews all OF whosecritics pre-
dict great things for the young author,
James Douglas, for example says:
There are all sorts of moods in
these songs--bitter, rebellious moods;
black moors of hate and scorn, and
moods that suggest the laughter of
hell; sweet wistful moods, heavy with
the heartache or the Celt. There IS
biting realism, the realism that goes
through you like a sword. Patrick
MacGill Is a poet, the like of whom

and hands that might never have

Here is the story of his career in
the exact words in which he related
it as we sat in the quiet cloisters at
Windsor where he Is now at work. He
was born, by the bye, at Glenties, a
little village in one of the widest dis
tricts of Donegal, on the north coast
of Ireland.

What the Navy Poet will accom-

lain, 1t will be highly interesting to
see. From a purely literary standpoint
the present royal librarian, the Hon. John
Fortescue. whose most notable work up
to now is the official account of the last
royal Durbar, is compared with MacGill
as tallow candle to an arc light. AS
for Fortescue's job of selector of the
queens reading, which the young poet
may inherit, it may be said that there
always is some court functionary who is
entrusted with this task and that, too,
