CLAIM DESERT AS THEIR OWN
Bedouins Insist on Their Right to
Levy Toll on Those Who Traverse
the Territory.

The BedOuin contends that the
desert is his land, as much as America
belongs to the Americans or England
to the English. He reasons that he
has as much right to levy toll on all
who travel his way as western gov
ernment has to levy a tariff or to col
lect an excise tax He contends that
every caravan entering Bedouin ter
ritOry can, by the payment of proper
fee, secure from the nearest Bedouin
sheik passport which will entitle 1t
to safe passage through their terri
tory. Failing to secure such a pass
port and to pay such toll for the
privilege of passing through the desert,
the BedOuin asserts that the traveller
puts himself in the same category
with the smuggler, the bOOtlegger, and
the mOOnshiner in our own country,
and that his goods are as justly liable
to confiscation as those of the snug
gler and noonshiner in America. The
BedOuins declare that the caravan
owner not only can secure the right
to pass through their territory un-
mOlestcd, but that he can even go
further and secure from them, for a
proper fee, an escort which will pro-
tect him and his property while in
the desert.

Two Fools.

One man made unkind remarks
about another-said things about him
that were not true; tried to leave the
impression that the man was not Of
the character he really is. No one
but fool would be guilty Of such con-
duct.
The man who was talked about" re-
sented it; took the fool to task for his
folly; got into difficulty with the
fool and became angry. He was also
n fool or he would not have been guilty
Of such conduct. So the trouble was
between two fools-twO of them
making trouble for each other and for
themselves.
But there are many just such fools
in the world-men who circulate I'M
kind reports about others, and the
other resenting the unkind remarks.
There are those who seek to enter
tain their friends by talking about
other people. They seem to think
that 1t Is the easiest way Of being
entertaining; they work overtime at
the task, with never n hope of Sc
curing adequate compensation for
their efforts.
