There was universal satisfaction.

And one who heard him spake with evil
tongue, saying:
"Abu Effendi, men will not fee from our
walls, for behold there are no moro homes
elsewhere than here. 1t hath come to my
knowledge that we have lost but one citizen
of repute. The philosopher Diogenes, wander
ing once through the courts of the Caliph's
palace with his lantern, became discouraged
and fled elsewhere, uttering strange cries. Yet
he alone might flee where he would for he
carrieth his abode, a tub, with him"
But Abu ibn Craig responded:
"Nay. 1t should be our endeavor to praise
this our city in the fashion in which the
makers of charots and washing powders and
other commodities praise their wares. And
we should set up a council Of scribes and
poets who would sing the praises of the town
and those who rule over it. Aye, we should
sell the city through advertisement to the
people Of the land"
Then said the other: "sell? Hath Tam
many become tired of it's possession?"
To which Abu ibn Craig made answer: "I
spake only in the parlance of the advertising
craft, whose aid this our city needeth sorely.
Come thou with me, oh, thou doubter, and I
will explain what l mean"
Then drew he the other aside and explained
that it was the kept press, which, loving
falsehood, spread evil tales concerning the
city go that business and the people might
desert it, and the papers thereby bo enabled
to reduce their circulation.
What is needed" quoth he, "is less Of
mourning and more Of laughter"
And the other gave answer.
There is always the good Caiph Hy-lan."
