RESPITE FOR MARY THOMAS
coIored Woman, Dissatisfied With
Wings, Came Back to Earth for
Another Spell of Life.

Mary Thomas had been on the books
years. Her rent was regularly paid
from its all too small fund, her clothes
and her medicines were largely pro-
vided for in the same manner. At last
one day the treasurer's assistant, a
negro preacher, burst into the office Of
his chief, hardly waiting to knock.
Mary Thomas, she done daid, sah,"
he exclaimed.
1.-THE gods are good" the treasurer
breathed. "Sit down, Casey, and tell
me how it happened"
"Ah don't know much bout it, sah."

gran'chile er Mary's, an All comes up
yhar right away to tell yer. Use on
ma way over dar now, ter see she laid
out properly. Good mo'nin', sah."
The next day a slow, sad knock
sounded at the door of the treasurers
office, and Casey disconsolately walked
in.
"She done come ter life, sah," he
said shortly.

are you talking about?"

M0SLEMs TO BE RECOGNIZED
Legally Recognized by
Hungary.

The Moslem religion will be legally
recognized in Hungary if bill intro
duced by the Hungarian minister of
justice is enacted into law by the Hun,
garian diet.
In addition to giving the Moslem
religion every right enjoyed by any
other recognized faith in Hungary, the
proposed law will also permit the
teaching of Mohammedan dogma and
the founding of Moslem religious in
situations so far as they are not in
conflict with the existing laws.
While Mohammedans in Hungary
have in the past enjoyed full liberty
of conscience, they were as yet de-
prived of certain civil rights which
functionaries of other recognized
creeds exercised. The bill now before
the diet effaces some of these inabili-
ties automatically, as soon as it be-
comes law, while others are removed
by express provisions, as was done in
the case Of the Mohammedans of Bos-
mia and Herzegovina.
OF Moslem communities in Hungary
the Danube island of Ada Kale, near
Orsova, is the largest, though groups
large enough to form religious COM
munities are found in many parts of
the country.
