TURKISH BACHELORS.

Somebody has been lying about Tur-
key. Here we had been led to sup
pose that any common, ordinary Turk
ish citizen of average means had old
man b. Young, late of Salt Lake City,
beaten to a fragile in the matter of
wives, and that Turk who did have
a harem of size considered himself dis
graced and headed straight for the
eternal hot place.
When we have thought of Turkey,
we have thought also of harems. We
imagined athat when a tired Turk re-
turned home from a busy day in his
law office. bank or on the business
end of a taxicab or trolley car, he had
to explain not once why he was late
to dinner but at least a dozen times.
We had figured out that every Sat
urday night he had to face at least
dozen grocery bills and was under the
painful necessity of doing out a dozen
allotments of pin money. OF course,
we knew there couldn't be anything in
Turkish customs like our Easter, for
how could one poor Turk buy a dozen
Easter bonnets without robbing a
bank? And there were times when we
wondered whatj kind of wages they
paid in Turkey ito permit of such lux
uries as harentJ and their expensive
inhabitants. {
But through ! all we.never waver-
ed once in our ;belief that each Turk
had whole galaxy of wives; how he
kept EN- was his own business, for
we had trouble enough finding means
TO keep one. And now comes the heart
less Sultan anG skaters another de-
fusion. by announcing a heavy tax on
bachelors. 1t appears that modern
Turks would rather risk helI's fire, as
threatened by the prophet, than face
the sheriff, and have declined to take
even one wife. It's hard to give up our
belief in the harem, but wen say this,
that we have "a lot more respect for
the common sense of the up-to-date
Turk than we had for the boys who
plunged over their ears in matrimony.

management of city of 10000 peo-
pie? 1t means that thousands of dol
lars were lost, or out of sight, till for
some unknown reason this money
which is the peoples money-is dug
up and made available for street paw
ing. What would be said of the mana
ger of a department store who con-
Quoted his business in so ignorant or
careless a manner? Big business will
invest in a city where their taxes will
mean something for the well being of
their employees. contented, happily
working force means fewer strikes and
greater efficiency. With the present
increased rate, we should have money
for. parks, Fairgrounds, library or
reading rooms and free clinics.
Pensacola hasn't even sanitary
drinking fountains on the streets, as
smaller cities of Florida have.
The city commissioners are hired by
the people. If they do not give salts

one else. We can't afford to have WISH

MEMBER THAT DOG OF YOURS?

You are asked by the American HUI
name association to set aside Arril IL
II as Humane week" for greater
kindness to animals. It's a movement
that robody can be mean enough to
oppose.
Go back into Your childhood and you
recall certain pet dog that was as
loyal a friend as you ever had. What
child did not worship the intelligent
old horse in grardpa's barn? Who did
not have difficulty keeping back the
tears when mother read about tho
stories OF Beautiful Joe" and BLACK
Beauty?"
Much OF the Joy of youth is insep-
arably bound up with dumb animals.
Children instinctively are asfectiorate
and kind to dumb brutes. That is our
normal attitude toward them. AS we
grow older, however. we grow thought
less and many are unnecessary cruel
to dogs and cats and the beasts of the
field and the fowl of the air.
We owe a mighty debt to dumb ami
mails
Millions Of mothers and children
have been protected by faithful watch
dogs.
We call this the age of steam and
electricity, vet much of our civilization
rests on domesticated animals-almost
as much so as when they were help
ing our ancestors emerge from barbar-
ism by sharing the work. We still
have 10000 900 Norses toiling for us in
America, and greater number of COWS
furnishing us with meat, milk and but
ter.
We couldn't get along without them.
Giving them a square deal is a mat
ter OF common decency-of granting
what they deserve.
1t is fine thing that we are going
to observe Humane week" Let's keep
1t going after April 17--lets recognize
the Importance of domesticated ami
mails in American life and, realizing
that they are helpless before the mer-
ciless hand. spare them all uuneces-
sary pain.

A DAILY MESSAGE
BY DR.. WILLIAM &. BARTON
"THE LAST NIGHT"

So it seems that Rostand did not
close his dramatic career with Chant
icleer" in which Maude Adams, most
feminine of actresses. was most inap-
prOpriately, but with singular effec-
tiVeness. staged for a male part, He
had previously risen to the very zenith
of fame as the author of "Cyrano de
Bergerac" and did not decrease that
fame by his authorship Of "Chanti-
cleer"
Now, to the surprise of the literary
world. it is made known that 10 years
ago, in 1911, he completed another
great work, combining poetic power
and dramatic force. 1t has not yet
been published in English, bnt advance
descriptions Of it appear in some of the
literary journals.
It is called The Last Night of Don
Juan"
Everyone knows what sort of man
Don Juan was. He was a libertine
most reckless. And we might expect
his last nigh: 10 be one deep shame
and remorse.
But the satire OF ;he poet is found III
this that he denies 20 Don Juan. any
such luxury Of repentance. The tears
which are collected from the eyes Of
women he has wr0nged and which lie
thinks. with a vanity he would substi-
tute for eperitence. might be to him a
cooling drink in hell, are found to have
to have been shed over the loss of a
bat, or over a trivial disappointment.
He has had small share in any of
them. And now there is denied him,
not love, but tfe capacity for loving
That of which he is deprived is that
Of which he has deprived himself
Rostand did not write a 8 a morai;st
He would have resented the idea that
any such purpose was TO have been OK
pected Of him.
But he displays his insight into hui
man nature and life when the devil
awards the punishment TO Don Juan.
He does not make Don Juan a great
villain, but consummate fool.
Not that, Anything but that. Let
me roast in hell" cries Don Juan.
But Satan. as in one of Kiplings

Don Juan. He must live, the clown,
the fool.
The characters in the play. are most

Juan supposes he has broken. But they
do not appear to reproach him with
his sin; they laugh at his folly. his i'm
potent helplessness.
Satan is courtly and leisurely. and
has A fine vein of humor. he is in no
hurry: he knows he viii get all that
Is coming to him.
But poor Don Juan, He is not even
a high class villain: he is doomed to
wear his motley, and appear as in a !

TO the woman's motive in inviting me
to her room and thus pumping me.
That it had some bearing upon her
plan-which, unknown to her, I had
disCovered-to steal the paintings in
the Cosgrove parlor, I was certain.
But just how she expected to use her
knowledge of our rooms and habits in
her scheme I could not see.
OF course I realized the reason for
her look Of satisfaction in hearing that
Dicky was a heavy sIeeper-inf0rma-
ton which Dicky had laid great stress
upon my giving her. Naturally, she
would not like to have light sleepers
in the house when attempting a dar-
ing plan like hers. But how the fact
that Dicky slept in the back room and
I in the front room could interest her
was beyond me, although Dicky had
warned me that she would ask me that
very thing.
What did Dicky suspect? He had
said just before left him to go to Mrs.
Alliss room, that he was sure he saw
through her scheme. l felt as If
could not wait to get back to him and
find out what he meant.
"Join Me Each Night
+ I dared not show the least impa-
thence. however. and it seemed to me
that the tea drinking would never end.
it was all most unreal to me- this pro-
sale room of the Cosgrove farmhouse
which Mrs. AIlis had converted into
a bizarre den with her oriental draper
les and pillows. She had ROBBED herself
in gorgeous kimona, and in the sof.
light Of the candles with which she
had displaced her kerosene lamp, she
looked mystic. dangerous.
But finally. after SHE had extracted
great variety OF information from
me. she said as she proffered me a
third cup of tea:
You don't know what a Godsend
you have been to me tonight. Mrs.
Graham. I haven't a soul to speak to
who knows anything of life outside OF
the mountains. These yokels. with
their talk of props and gardens
heaven preserve US. If it were not for
my physicians orders I could not stand
it here. I always brew myself cup
of tea just before I go TO bed. Won't
you take pity on me and join me each
night while you are here?"
Perhaps it was because I was
wrought up, but l imagined I saw her
eyes glitter with suppressed emotion
as she waited for my answer. I had
a sudden conviction that my presence
in her room each evening was some
how necessary to her plot. and I tried
to make my voice nonchalant as I re-
piled:
e shall be very glad. indeed, to come
| have never tasted more delicious
tea

and knew that she caught the purely
feminine thrust 1 had given her. But
II told myself grimly that not even to
Iuu her suspicious would I pretend
pleasure in her company I could truth
fully say the tea was delicious. I had
never drank anything like It before.
She stood smiling after me as I left
her room and entered mine. I make no
pretensions to clairvoyanco, but as she
closed her door it seemed to me I could
see her clench her fist and shake it
after me, and hear her murmur:
You poor fool, how gullible you
are."
Diclly was waiting for me. He had
tucked his bathrobe around him, and
was reading a magazine he had bought
on the boat. AS closed and locked
my door he spranG out of bed and
hurried toward me.
why, you are as white as a sheet
sweetheart" he said, but I noticed
that even in his solicitude he remem-
bered TO keep his voice at low pitch.
WHATS the matter? She didn't dare
say anything to annoy you?"
His fists had clenched his eyes were
black with anger.
What Dioky Really Felt.
"Oh. no. no. Dicky!" l whispered
back. "she was exceedingly courteous,
hut 1 am awfuliy afraid of her. She
is just like a tiger cat"
Here, you get into this bed" he
said authoritatively, as leaned
against him with my teeth SCATTERING
He lifted me bodily and put me into
in, Ia
travelling bag.
Drink this" he commanded a mo
ment later, having poured out some
brandy from an emergency flask he
always carried into a tiny silver drink
ing cup. Here, III get you some
water to take after it,"
He poured out glass Of water from
the pitcher one of the Cosgrove boys
had brought up after supper, and with
it's aid managed to get down the fiery
draught he had measured for me. 1t
brought back the color to my cheeks
and quieted the shaking Of my limbs.
My unreasoning, hysterical terror, Of
which | was thoroughly ashamed
slipped away, and was soon able 20
tell him everything that had been said
while ] was in Mrs. AIlish rooms.

when 1 reached her invitation to drink
tea with her every night.

shook him impatiently.

Nancy and Nick and Flippety Flap,
las though we We're going to have a
real circus after all, this year. The
elephant is very contended and intends
to stay. Mrs. Kangaroo and Hickey
Kang are more than happy since I
gave each of them new pair of boxing
gloves. GyD the Giraffe will stay for

Flippety Flap looked at the sole of

he. They live in the fifth story of
the Cocoanut-P Palm Tree hotel on the
Island of Farthest- Ever. Leastways
that's the address I have here, but you
never can tell about them, the rascals.
Home is where the grub is,' is their
motto, so you're likely to find them
wherever a good square meal happens
to be growing, or a round one, or an
oblong one. They're not particular"
The magical mushroom then put in
an appearance. How are the magic
green shoes holdin out. kiddies?" said
he. "Any holes in 'em yet? That
wouldn't do. you know. with so many
oceans to cross on your travels"
The twins took them off and handed
them over. and the magical mushroom
looked at them carefully. They are
good for spell yet" he assured them.
Perhaps two spells. And how about
your language charm"
Nancy produced 1t, also.
VERY good, my dears. I reckon you

Away sailed the twins and the fairy

There is music on the street:
And It starts to chime and beat
In your brain.
The old familiar tunes
With their tender lingering runes
or sorrows and Of boons,
Sound again.
Through the list the players roam;
Annie Laurie; Home. Sweet Home;
Aud Lang Syne:
Suwanee River; Warrior Bold;
Silver Threads Among the Gold:
Sweetest Story Ever Told;
Baby Mine.
And you listen. and you smile:
And you hide tear the while.
As YOU stand:
There's a sweetness in your thought.
Ey hope and memory wrought:
And YOU shell out--as YOU ought
For the band.
