ONCE Orient PRIDE
Old Merv Is Now but a DesoIate
Place of Ruin.
Practically Obliterated by the Great
Conqueror, Jhenghiz Khan, Whose
Son Had Fallen in the As
saults on the City.

| We passed by New Merv and went
on to Bairam Ali, named after one of
/ the sons of Timur, which is the station
! for Old Merv and the demesne of the
| Murghab, formerly the property of the
| royal family, Maynard Owen Williams
! writes in the Christian Herald. Bair-
! am Ali resembles the great pyramids
! in that il stands between the desert
/ and the town. Accompanied by the
I tWenty-year-old commiSSar, a remark
| ably intelligent young Russian upon
whom devolves the task Of governing
| the district with a decreasing police
force, we visited the various ruins
which mark the spots where the sue
cessive editions of Merv stood. Merv
! is mentioned in the ZoroaStrian books
of wisdom and, like every other old
city, owed its existence to a river-the
Murghab. Seleucus Nikator once
founded a colony here and for con-
siderable period 1t was the home of a
large band of HISTORIANS. But it was
not until the Arabs, to whom modern
civilization owes so much, took charge,
soon after the death of Mohamet, that
Merv became true metropolis. Huge
dams were erected on the Murghab and
the entire oasis was well watered from
the frrigating bitches. Merv then ri
vailed Bagdad as the greatest city in
the orient.
Five centuries later, Jhenghiz Khan,
enraged by the death of his son before
the rampartS of the queen city of the
world, utterly destroyed 1t. The Arabic
writers assert that nearly a million
persons were killed at this time. Arabic
writer's estimated figures In a typically
freehanded way.
For 200 years Merv was a ruin, but
in the fifteenth century it was rebuilt
and continued to exist until 1895, when
the emir of Bokhara destroyed the
wonderful dam at Sultan Bent and
thus turned the lovely oasis into a des-
ert. Massive as they are, the ruins of
Old Merry are devoid of interest. The
young cortmissar, in speaking of the
ruins, said, "What sighs and tears
these crumbling walls have costI'
Three beautiful horses, furnished by
the government and driven by q pic
turesque old coachman in a red shirt
and sash, black vest and white coach
mans hat, whirled US back through the
various sites of ruined cities to the
small town of Bairam Ali, where a new
system Of irrigation is building up a
new city. Old Merv is an interesting
proof of the "Sic transit gloria mundi'
phrase, but 1t was built in 'sic transit"
style, of sunbaked bricks. Only bat
tered mosque, great convent and sew
eral huge beehive ice-houses remain
above the Scared plain where great
cities stood.

WiIIfulness and VIII.

Do not mistake willfulness for will
Very often the girl who is most deter.
mined to get her own way in every.
thing, lacks will power. VIII is con-
ducive to self-control, willfulness to
a lack of it. The difficulty a girls
proper guardian, her parents and her
teachers, encounter in bringing her to
do what is expected of her is not the
measure of her will, but of her willful-
ness.-Pennsylvania Grit.

THOMSON SAYS HE
 GAINED 43 POUNDS
Suffered Fifteen Years With Rheum atism and
 Other Troubles

Another remarkable statement to be added to the thousands already given, testifying to the undouDted benefits that nave been derived from the use Of Tanlac in long standing cases of rheumatic troubles, IS that made the other day by Duncan Thomson, who Is in the meat market business and lives at 42l 1-2 Hawthorn avenue, Portland, Ore. In telling of his experience with Ianlac MT. Thompson said:
 T feel 1t my duty to tell everybody how Tanlac restored my broken down health, for the only way l found out about this wonderful medicine was through others telling how it helped them.
 'I suffered from a rheumatic condi- tion of the system for 15 years" con tinued MT. Thomson, "and l kept get ting worse all the time. My kidneys worried me too for the last two years and the misery in my back was so ter riDle l thought at times it would sure ly break in two. My legs and knees would draw up till my muscles felt like they were tied in knots and ached so bad 1 could hardly bear to have anything touch them. I was so badly cOnstipated, that l had to take some thing tor this condition every two or three days, and my troubles weighed on me so and pulled me down till they nearly put me out of business. l lost weight, and felt so tired and worn out all the time that it was all could do to drag myself off to my work.
 Well, l tried everything l could hear of, but got no better, and had begun to think there was no help for me at all. l was in Snyder, Okla homa, when l first heard about Tan lac. Everybody there was taking it, and the results they were getting were so remarkable that l bought some my- self to try. Why, I personally know one lady who was down in bed with rheumatism for six months and her friends had given her up to die. She took Tanlac and is now up and do- ing her own work, as we'll as ever, ana could tell you of many other cases. But to get back to my own case, l felt so much better after taking my first bottle that I kept on with it till now my rheumatism and kidney trOu- bles have been entirely relieved, my constipation has been removed and have actually gained 34 pounds in weight. I am stronger and better than have been in years, 1 work as hard as a man half my age and it don't hurt me a bit. l have already told many people about the way Tanlac has fixed me up and I expect to tell many more for I think Tanlac is the best medicine anybody can take

STRIKE MADE UPON LOS C0NQUISTADORES
 MINE NEAR BENSON
OUCH CONSIDERED GOLD PROPERTY, NEW BODY OF GOLD-SILVER-LEAD ORE LOOKS AS THOUGH IT MIGHT FINANCE DEVELOPMENT

Some very interesting develop ments have lately arisen on Los Con Quistadoes mining property, situated about F miles north of Benson, Ariz.
 It had been regarded as a gold pro position solely; but recently a large body of gold-silver-lead ore has been uncovered on the Carolina No. 1 and No. claims, which from the values it contains, bids fair to be the means of financing all of the development work throughout the property and leaving considerable in the dividend fund, for it's stockholders.
 Preparations are under way to ship a large tonnage of this ore to the Fl Paso shelter and it is intimated by some of the officials of the company, that this step presages the withdraw al of the treasury stock from the market

SURVEY PARTIES ARE NEEDED BY ARMY
 CONSTRUCTION

WASHINGTON, p. C.. Nov. 2.-The construction division of the army is without doubt the most extensive or ganizatiOn of it's kind in the history of the world. The approximate value of construction projects undertaken by this branch of the government since the United States entered the war is one billion dollars. The fig ures representing the material used and the men employed are staggering. 250,000 workmen have been under the control of the division at one time.
 Among the divisions present urg- ent needs are 50 chiefs of survey party at S2,700 to $SO0O a year; 50 transit men at $2400 a'year; 25 livery. men at $2100 a year; 125 rodmen at $500 a year and 50 topographic draftsmen at $21OO a year. These positions are open to men only, ex- cepting the drafting positions, which are open to both men and women. All of the positions are in the civil, not the military, service.
 Persons interested should apply to the United States civil service com mission, Washington, D. C., or to the secretary of the local board of civll service examiners at Boston, New York, Philadelphia, Atlant, Cincinnati, Chicago, St. Paul, St. Louis, New Or leans. Seattle, or San Francisco.
 Applicants will not be required to undergo a written examination, the ex- animation being of the "non-assem- bled' type; that is, the ratings will be based upon education, training. ex- perence and physical ability as shown by the applications and corroborative evidence. These positions offer an excellent opportunity for patriotic ser vice, and the civil service commis- sion urges qualified persons to apply without delay
