Turks. The chief towns are Nicosia,
the capital, with $1,000 inhabitants,
the largest city, Limasol and Larna-
ca. Most Of the people gain their
livelihoods by agriculture. The meth
ods employed are almost as ancient as
are the traditions Of the island, and
the inhabitants are sturdliy opposed
to innovation. The olive, mulberry,
grains. grapes and other fruits, oil
seeds, cotton and all sorts Of vegete-
heve been undertaken for the recla
nation of the soil, so fruitful Of old,
and many acres have been brought
back under cultivation. In passing,
, it may be stated, that the miles OF
Cyprus have found favor in all OF
Britaips wars since that waged
against Russia in the Crimea.
Cyprus does an annual trade OF
about s1,50O,C00. 1t is handicapped iE
the development Of its commerce ow-
ing to a want Of natural harbors and
to an eastern fatalism too thorough
ly learned to permit Of much initia-
tive. Since the British occupatioin
some energy has been brought into
the little land, but there still remains
a great deal to be accomplished before
west Europe commerce and business
management can become indigenous.

Fodder For Lions.-A menagerie
stopped in a little country village, says
the Washington Star.
One urchin with more cheek than
cash, thought he would like to see the
animals, so he quietly pushed his head
through a gap in the canvas and had
a look.
But the manager saw him and haul
ed him out.
Here, Agrippa," he yelled to help
er, throw this lad into the lions
cage"
If he thought he had alarmed the
youngster he was mistaken.
The boy said calmly:
Wait, mister! If you'll let me see
the show for nothing I'll get all the
fattest boys in the village to crawl
under the canvas tomorrow night"

Of how one of his political enemies
got even with him. There was mass
meeting out in Nebraska at which Mr..
Bryan was to speak. and which was
presided over by man with whom he
had crossed swords several times.
There was a real feud on between the
two, and when Bryan ascended the
platform the presiding officer, ex-
Governor Thayer of Nebraska, paid no
attention to him.
At last it came time to introduce
Bryan, and the chairman walked over
to him and inquired:
What is your name, please?"

man. And what do YOU do, Mr.. Bry-

.ly a British Blockade.

The British government declares
that it has never instituted blockade
Of Greek ports nor laid an embargo on
Greek shipping. That may very well
be believed, especially by the United
States, from observation and expert
ence of British dealings. There has
never been a blockade declared of
German ports nor an embargo laid
against neutral shipping, in the sense
prescribed by international law as
formerly and formally recognized. But
no commerce is permitted to go to
German ports and cargoes consigned
to them-or, for that matter, to neu-
trail ports accessible overland to Ger
many-are detained, referred to prize
courts and ultimately confiscated un-
der British orders in council. A block
ade, as defined by international law,
has not been instituted during the war.
Instead we have a British blockade,
which is nominally quite another mat
ter. but actually the same thing. All
it lacks is regularity. Doubtless it
was a British blockade that brought
Greece around to do the bidding of the
Allies as far as giving of assurances
that their armies should have free

Rural Fairs.

The fall has seen an unusually
large number Of rural fairs. There
have been county fairs and communi-
ty fairs. At these gatherings there
have been exhibits Of farm products
whether live stock or crops Of the soil
which represents the best efforts OF
the section in which the fair Is held
These gatherings are helpful. Good
comes Of them. One man sees what
his neighbor has done. and learns how
it was done. There is an exchange of
ideas. There is an augmented ambi-
ton. AS a result Of the various fairs
there will be more intensive efforts
along agricultural lines; there will be
more raising Of live stock, Of vegetables
and Of other food products. The good
work should go on. The facts are far
more than just passively worth while.
