TURKISH SPY SYSTEM.
IL Not Only Keeps Tab Upon Strangers,
but Spies Upon Itself.


It Not Only Keeps Tab Upon Strangers,
but Spies Upon Itself.
Turkey boasts of more spies to the
square mile than any other country,
as any one who has been to Turkey
viii agree.
The peculiar thing about these spies
is that they themselves cannot be
trusted, so that regular chain Of
spies is the result. There are spies to
spy upon the spies.
The government officials have their
own spies to watch other people, but
even the great authorities themselves
are already being spied upon.
What is more, the method of spying
is quite open, for the spies will stand
by wherever two or three foreigners
are gathered together and listen to the
conversation. Visitors to Turkey natu-
rally get worried over such attentions.
especially when it might be their bad
luck to be followed about for weeks or
months.
1t is the "uninitiated" visitor who
usually receives the most attention,
since he or she will carry on conver-
sation in a quiet undertone. The per-
son who knows Turkey converses in a
loud tone for all and sundry-the spies
especially-to hear that he is only en-
gagged in pleasure or legitimate busi-
ness, and the wise man leaves the topic
Of politics severely alone. = London

History.

History is voice forever sounding
across the centuries the laws of right
and wrong. Opinions alter, manners
change, creeds rise and fall, but the
moral law is written ON the tablets of
eternity. For every false word or un-
righteous deed, for cruelty and oppres-
sion, for lust or vanity, the price has
to be paid at last-not always by the
chief offenders, but paid by some one.
Justice and truth alone endure and
live Injustice and falsehood may be
long lived. but doomsday comes at last
to them in French revolutions and
other terrible ways.-James Anthony
Froude.

CAPTURING A MODEL.
A Complexion That DeIacroix Could
Not Let Escape.

MOT Let ESCdPSs
Delacroix, the painter, was walking
out one day in Paris with friend of
his when he fell into a brown study.
"What is up with you now?" said the
friend.
II can't get certain shade of vel
low" replied the artist.
"What sort of Yellow"
Just then a cab drove past.
'The very thing!' the painter gasped
out. "Stop, stopy
81 am engaged" the cabby replied
without stopping.
Delacroix started in pursuit and at a
steep place in the Rue des Martyrs
overlook the cab. Opening the door,
he said in tones of entreaty to the pas
senger inside:
"Do please tell your driver to stop.
l want your complexion for painting
on which l am at work. There is a
color merchant close at hand. shall
not detain you above five minutes, and
in acknowledgment of the service you
render me | will present you with a
sketch of my picture"
The bargain was struck. Delacroix
got his yellow, and a few months later
the "fare" received sketch of his
Assassination of the Archbishop Of
Mege."

Soldiers and Mustaches.

The suggestion that soldiers should
be clean shaven would not have com.
mended itself to Victor Emmanuel IL,
who held it incumbent on soldier to
look ferocious. One of his first acts
in assuming the royal dignity after the
battle of Novara was to change what
he called his 'milksop's appearance"
by applying black dye to his hair and
mustache, which were naturally fair.
This he continued to use until his
death, always applying the dye him
self, for he hated BARRIERS or Wallets to
come near him.-London Chronicle.
