For instance, if a window is
broken noiselessly by plastering
flypaper on it to prevent the crash
of falling glass, the police know

only during storms.

And let none of you imagine
evil in your hearts against his
neighbor; and love no false oath;
for all these things do I hate, saith
the Zechariah SIT.
Trust me, that for the instructed,

When they shall meet no object
but may teach
Some acceptable lesson to their
minds
Of human suffering or human joy.
For them shall all things speak of
man.

ORIENTAL LUXURIES
AND OTHER THINGS.

In shop windows and stores we
see many Injuries that make us
sigh because we cannot afford
to buy them.
Most of us are millionaires at
heart. That is the chief reason we
have miilionaires. They are tho
creations of The composite Of ma
tionaI thought and desire.
1t is also the reason why luxu-
ries fascinate us, make us pack The
movie theater where a film shows
expensive gowns, Jewels, costly
furnishings and other trappings Of
luxury.
A desert sheik is fascinating be-
cause of his luxurious life-partic-
ularly the luxury of summoning a
regiment Of kowtowing servants by
he mere clapping of a hand.
The best that the movies can do,
an picturing luxury, is tame com
pared with the genuine luxuries of
the ancient Orient.
For instance, Abulfeda-th re-
porter-historian of Damascus 1000
years ago-wrote this description
of the Caliph Moktader's court in
Ragdad:
"Near his state officers were
1000 eunuchs. The porters and
dcorkeepers were in number 700.
Barges and boats with the most SUI
pcrb decorations were seen float
ing on the Tigris. Nor was the
palace itself less splendid, in which
were hung up $4,000 pieces of tap
estry, 1880 of which were of
silk embroidered with gold. The
carpets on the floor were $4,000. A
hundred lions were brought out
with a keeper to each.
Among the other spectacles of
rare and stupendous luxury was a
tree Of gold and silver, spreading
into IS larger branches, on which,
and on the lesser boughs, sat va
riety Of birds made of the same
precious metals, as well as the
leaves OF. the tree. The birds
warbled their natural harmony,
each in its own strains, the whole
being effected by the spontaneous
motions of machinery"
Emperor Shih Huang Tt, builder
Of the Chinese Wall, had a gorgeous
palace Of 1901 rooms, also a large
bathing pool filled with the Oldest
of fine and expensive wines.
Compared with those ancient
days, the modern world does not
know what luxury is.
And that is a mighty good thing.
For the luxury of the ancicnts
yag enjoyed by only a few, sup
ported by millions Of slaves who
toiled under the lash until they
We're exhausted and allowed to re-
ruperate in sleep like over-worked
horses and oxen.
Luxury has vanished. So, too,
for the most part, has human slav-
cry.

When anyone says "To be perfectly frank
AS preface to further remark,
know he's about TO say things that are rank,
TO which must patiently bark.
He haul ali my faults into pitilcss light,
And strip the truth woefuly nude,
For "Frankness' implies if 1 read it Alright.
Get ready I'm going to be rudew
no one ever says, "To be perfectly frank
think you noble and smart"
Ah no, it's sign they re preparing to yank
Your character roughly apart.
So, when "To be frank" is the opening phrase
shudder, prepared to endure
Opinions Of all my actions and ways
Which will not be pleasant, I'm sure.
We say we want frankness from all of our friends,
But when it comes down to a test,
We find that Che comradcship Frequently ends
Through Franl,ness too frankly expressed;
For neither your character, brother, nor mine,
Of faults and of foibles is blank;
So let US forget them, we'll get along fine
By not being Perfectly Frankr'
