But the war lord said with asperity. This
IS no time to bother one SO pressed as I an,
with trivial details Behold, must hasten
10 conference on the use OF poison fumes in
The wars which this gathering is preventing.
And Sinbad followed him, and behold the
debate ragged long over this question, some
holding that the use of poison fumes was le
gltlmate; others proclaiming tiercely that
stranguation was a hideous and degrading
custom Tor nations sufficiently civilized to
blow their enemies apart with fire and steel.
And at length these latter prevailed, and it
was forbidden in the name Of the conference
TO use the poison fumes in warfare hence
forth.
Then, while all the world admired this
step, Sinbad the Sailor spake again in his
ignorance, saying: And what dire punishment
IS to fall upon those who henceforth resort
to poison fumes in wartime?'
But again they said to him: .rhese are
trivial details. Don't annoy u.s.
land Sinbad ventured again: Might it not
be we'll to appoint board of judges who
wa o't Oil tllc sue IlNeS III the next war and
observe that none of the rules yc have estab
lished be violated?'
But this time no one answered him at all,
and he returned sadly to his own land, say
ing to himself: In sooth, if men can partially
destroy war galeys, why not eliminate them
entirely? And if they can restrict the oper-
atlons Of undersea craft, why can they not
prohibit them? Aye, if they can ban poison
fumes, my brain refuseth to see why they can
not take one step more and rule against gun
powder and the bayonet.'
land he pioneered SO long upon these ques-
tions that word eventually went through the
city of Joppa that he had lost his mind"
And Shahrazad ceased her tale and her
lord. shahryar, king Of kings, replied with in
disnation.
II like not thy tale. Doth not the Koran
teach that by war and the slaughter Of the
enemies Of Islam MIN sttaineth paradise
such as this earth knoweth not?"
To which Shahrazad replied:
"That is truth, lord Of my life. It is war
that keepeth paradise so Tar away from this
our earth.''
New-York tribune., 1922-01-15

vi course, q stranger, thou understand
est that we shall retain those of our war
galleys best fitted to destroy and MAIN and
STAY and shall do away only with those whose
efhcacy as engines of warfare has fallen of
with the years
And while Sinbad pondcrcd on these
words tunult went up from the war lords
OF the various lands The Emirs of the en-
pre- Of Nippon clamored for a sea force much
nearer the strength of that of the Britons
than that they already possessed And the
leaders of the Franks demanded authority to
double their naval strength, while similar
clamor rose from the war lords of other
lands.
Then asked Slnbad, amazed: Is this a
disarmament or all armament conference?'
But one in authority cxplained: 1T is the
first rule of diplomacy to ask for much in
the nope that one may obtain tithe thereof
hen, when at length the clamor had died
away and it had been determined to DESTROY
many ships no longer Of use in time of way,
the lords of the conference considered the
craft that travel beneath the sea- And the
debate on these was long and heated, some
demanding that in the interests of peace these
be abolished utterly; others that more Of them
be built at once for the sake of national
safety.
And the tumult thereover was grievous.
but at length certain rules were established
for the conduct of these craft in time Of
conflict. 1t was set forth what manner Of
ships they might attack and the fashion in
which they might attack them.
"But Sinbad the Sailor safe bemused and

The glasses clinked against his, splling
the wine. Gizelle kissed him on the cheek.

All the company shook hands with him. The

They left the table.

The two officers gave the cousin black

The cousin didn't answer. He hestated be-

All the others had their eyes glued on him,
lnstinctively condemning him for having OBJ

He uttered cry of triumph and banged
his fist on the table,
"1ve got there! I've got there!"

The cousin lifted his head In the midst If
general silence he announced solemnly vet
modestly:
My friends, want to tell you that have

fierce clamor ran around the table.
Snatched from the poor fellows hands. the
dispatch circulated fevershly. Gizelle, her
little sister and some of the ladies jumped IN
to read it over the others shoulders.
Questioned, the cousin told his story. T.

OF the dispatch played an interminable part
in it.

He laughed under his stubby mustache.

A salvo Of applause greeted this piece Of
humor.
NJ Lesinlon slapped him on the leg.
How amusing he is! How amusing he isl"
The cousin settled down in the best chair.
The women devoured him with their eyes:
the men drank in his words.

She was plainly limiting at an engagement.
The two officers looked at her from a dis
lance.

sellors, "you shall be Deputy. Take my
word for it What are your political

Seated before the fireplace, Jules talked on
for long time. Then they decided to dance.
