MODERN FAIRY TALES.

Ali Bahia and the Forty Profitecrs.
Ali Bahia, the ultimate consumer.
had been robbed left and right. In
forty ways had he been trimmed,
not including the genial little touches
added by the income tax.
Finally. Ali could stand no more
ESQ he thought). So he took a week
off and began to hunt for the forty
profiteers who had assaulted his
pocketbook and robbed him even Of
his dignity.
After a long and tedious search,
Ali Bahia came to the cave of the
profiteers. But when he tried to en-
ter, he found a gate of strongest iron
barring his way.
While he was sweating to open the
gate, he heard the humming of
twelve cylinder engines and the toot-
ing of horns. He~hid himself in the
bushes and waited.
Soon the forty profiteers came in
sight. When they reached the cave
they stepped out Of their Rolls
Royces and unloaded sacks full of
glttering gold. labeled profits"
One Of the profiteers stood be-
fore the iron door of the cave and
raising his hands to heaven, said:
"Open Sesame!"
And the huge gate that had defied
every effort Of Ali Bahia swung Open
The forty profiteers then carried
their sacks of gold into the cave.
Ali Bahia watched all this-and
waited. Eventually. the forty pro-
fiteers came out, stepped back into
their limousines and departed.
THEN All came out or mis- hiding
place and stood once more before the
gate of iron. He knew the combina-
ton and was determined to get a
sharerof the profits.
open, Sesame!" he said.
The gate swung open and Ali Bahia
entered.
But when he came out he had
neither coat nor shirt nor trousers
nor hat nor other garb.
All Ali Baba. had was a barrel,
which kind hearted profiteer had
given him for the sake of decency.

Telling the Time by Cats Eyes.

In various parts Of Turkey the
watch and the clock are extremely
rare, but the natives have an exceed
ingly ingenious way of approximating
the time, and some Of them hit 1t with
considerable accuracy. They locate
two cardinal points Of the compass,
and then folding their hands together
In such manner that the forefngers
point upward and in opposite direc-
lions, they observe the shadow cast.
In, the morning or the evening, at GER
tain known hours one finger or the
other viii point directly to the sun. A
comparison of the two shadows will
determine the hours between. Another
system followed in Turkey and some
other countries of the Orient is to OBJ
serve the eyes OF a cat. Early in the
morning and evening the pupils are
round. At 8 and 8 o'clock they are
oval, and at noon they consist of mar
row slit.
