Mosul's Many Storks.

The old town, with its strangely
narrow streets, even for the east, is
surrounded by half-ruined wall, brilt
in modern times as a protection
against the Shammar Arabs. Every
one remarks on the narrow streets of
Mosul, on its white, crumbling houses,
on the gypsum dust which falls CON
stantly from the walls over everything.
and upon the storks. Indeed the
storks of Mosul are apparently its
most remarkable feature.
Discussing the matter one authority
tells how, in the cool Of the evening,
the citizens of Mosul share their
housetops with innumerable storks
who build their ragged nests on the
highest places sin utter disregard OF
