Toys Amused the Sultan

From "The Liquidation of Sultanate,"
 by w. B. Harris, in Asia" magazine.
 There was a room in a hideous villa and bought as it stood. It seemed haunted by the microbe of irritability. Not only was it's decoration appalling, but it was full of a host of objects which the ex-Sutan had brought from Fez, among them innumerable music he evidently fancied particularly kind made in the shape of locomotive en- zine in colored metals the wheels Of which all turned round at the hours, half hours, and quarters, for they were there in dozens, almost--and mechanical toys. Everything, or nearly everything, was broken, and an Italian watch
 maker was employed to try to mend
 them. It was in this room that the man had set up his workshop, and nothing pleased Mulni Hafid more than to sit and watch him.
 It was not unseldom the writers duty to break to the ex-Suitan that the French authorities refused to pay such

 in self-restraint and are not accus- toned to bunt facts. Often it required considerable time and a neatly ex- pressed argument, couched in Arabic at once diplomatic and literary, to car- ry out the task successfully and escape an access of temper. The writer would begin with little discourse on the origin of revenues. The Sultain would listen attentively, but just as the mo- ment arrived to bring generalities into line with actual facts, the Italian watchmaker would meet with an un- expected success. Clocks would begin to strike and chime. or a musical box, old and wheezy to play, or an almost featherless stuffed canary in a cage would utter piercing notes in voice that moth and rust had terribly cor rupted--or from the vicinity of the Italians chair some grooming mechan- ical toy would crawl it's unnatural course over the carpet eventually to turn over on it's back and apparently expire in a whiz of unoiled wheels The ex-Sultan's attention would stray. There was an end of business, and it generally led to the ordering of a meal to be served to everyone.
