WoMAN'S LOVE DEMANDS ALL
Can Never Be Satisfied With Anything
Less Than Absolute Dominion
Over One Man.

What every woman wants more than
anything else IN the world is absolute
dominion over one man. There is a
peculiarly vampsh trend In feminine
love which takes the form of demand
ing entire possession of the creature
upon whom the affections have been
fastened.
Every woman wants to feel that, no
matter what his occupation-be II the
most engrOssing business or merely

polling note at the back of her mans
head. He must not forget her for a
single instant, and he must be regret
fully conscious that nothing Is quite
satisfactory. lacking the saving grace
of her presence. And she requires
continually To be assured of this. She
believes that In boarding her perpet-
ual recollection he holds talisman
rendering him immune from the attrac-
tions or Establishments of all other
women.

What Is Known as the "Red Wind"
Makes Life Miserable Along
the Mediterranean.

Sojourners In the Mediterranean for
any length of time see the red wind
as we'll as feel its oppressive influ-
ence. It blows from the deserts Of AZ
rica and derives its name from the
particles of red sand with which it is
charged. Should rain descend while
this wind prevails, the sand becomes
mud, and thence arise the mud show
ers."
In its dry state 1t is more oppress-
i've by far than any other wind known
to the Mediterranean, not excepting
the black "sirocco." Its effects are
in many ways remarkable. The sand,
of excessive fineness, enters between
your eyelids and your eyes; 1t gets
into your nostrils and down your
throat; it adheres to your skin and
works itself into your watch; it in.
creases the annoyance Of mosquitoes,
and it is so dry that, as you write or
read, the paper curls up as If exposed
to fire-heat. Tables and chairs of sea-
soned' wood and Of old manufa cture,
crack with a report almost like 6 pis-
tol-shot, and no quantity Of drink has
much effect on your raging thirst. All
this time your skin is hard and dry,
and without the relieving influence of
perspiration.

What We Make Use Of.

Not what we have, but what use we

and influential personality-all Of
these dedicated to Christian ideals
and the progress Of the Kingdom Of
God, will yield abundant fruits, some
thirty, some sixty, and some hun
dred-fold. Jesus used Peters boat, and
His spirit today will employ, with un-
