No Social Barriers in Turkey.

To those unfamiliar with Turkish
customs II may seem strange that
ralaak pasha, who has just resigned
the highest dignity In the Ottoman en-
pire, should have been earning his liv-
Ing only a few years & as nj obscure
telegraph clerk. Yet such big jumps
are perhaps easier In Turkey than In
any other country. For although the
Ottoman Turks often show the utmost
contempt for the numerous subject
races that help TO make up the Turk
ish empire, they recognize no social
barriers among themselves. In the
eyes of the sultan all are equal. Thus
II may easily happen that, given the
necessary ability, even an emanclpated
Ottoman slave may become grand vi.
rier. and perhaps marry into tbs sui
tan's own family.

Uncle Peabody hesitated, whereupon

CHAPTER vi.
My Second Peril.

One day Mr.. Grimshaw came out
in the field to see my uncle. They
walked away to the shade of a tree
while the hired man and l went on
with the hoelng. 1 could hear the
harsh voice Of the money-lender
speaking in loud and angry tones and
presently he went away.
whats the ripT 1 asked as my
uncle returned looking very sober.
1--WE won't talk about 1t now" he
answered.
In the candle-light of the evening
Uncle Peabody said:
"Grimshaw has demanded his mort
gage money an he wants it in gold
coin. Wen have to git it some way,
1 dunno how"
"W'y of all things !" my aunt ex-
claimed. "How are we goin' to git
all that money-these hard times2-
ayesl I'd like to know?"
"Well, I can't tell ye," said Uncle
Peabody. 81 guess he can't forgive
us for savin' Rodney Barnes"
what did he say?" I asked.
"Why, he says we hadn't no busi-
ness to hire a man to help us. He
says o an me ought to do all the
work here. He thinks l ought to took
you out o. school long ago."
Il can stay out o. school and keep
on with my lessons" / said.
Not an please him. He was mad
when he see We with a book in yer
hand out there in the corn-feld."
What were we to do now2 l spent
the first sad night of my life undoing
the plans which had been so dear to
me but not so dear as my aunt and
uncle. I decided to give all my life
and strength to the saving of the
farm. l would still try to be great,
but not as great as the Senator.

One Day Mr.. Grimshaw Came Out In
the Field to See My Uncle.

~tiveness. Nights and mornings and
Saturdays 1 worked with a will and
my book In my pocket or at the side
of the field and was, 1 know, a help
of some value on the farm. My schol-
arship improved rapidly and that year
/ went about as far as l could hope
to go in the little school at Leonard's
Corners.
81 wouldn't wonder If oil Kate was
right about our boy" said Aunt Deel
me day when she saw me with my
book in the field.
l began to know than that oil Kate
had somehow been at work in my
soul-subc0nsciously as 1 would now
put 1t. 1 was trying to put truth
into the prophecy. AS 1 look at the
whole matter these days 1 can see
that Mr.. Grimshaw himself was a
help no less important to me, for 1t
was a sharp spur with which he con-
tinued to prod us.
