Twenty-Five years ago the kaiser
set out on his memorable journey to
the Holy land and Constantinople,
where he made friends with Abdul
Hamid, sultan Of Turkey and butcher
of the Armenian people. In Jerusa-
lem, then an Arab city, he put on the
desert garb of a sheik prince to Inn
press the Mussulmans. In speech
he made at Damascus he told the fol-
lowers of Islam: ''The people of Islam
should be assured that thee will al
ways have a friend in the German
kaiser" That was part of the prel-
ude to the war in which Turkey was
to be ranged on the side Of the Ger
manic allies. And now The Hague
Post, an influential Dutch newspaper,
carries the item that his majesty him
self occupied the pulpit Of the little

Lots of Room in Space

There are at least 1000 million
giant suns in the milky way, each
one averaging a million times the vol
ume of our earth, the astronomer,
MouIton, tells us. Although like bees
in a swarm seemingly, the distances
between starsA are so vast that our
sun, travelling at the rate of 100000
million miles a year, has not appre-
ciably come any nearer his neighhcrs
since history began. The earth and
its seven other brother and sister
planets, Moulton tells us, had their
birth when our sun last appeared
near another star Our rocks tell ge-
ologists this was at least two billion
years ago. Our present planets will
be destroyed in some far remote time
when the sun again passes near an
other star, possibly in one quadrillion
years. the average lifetime of fam
lily of planets Then our solar system
will be reborn and made over. :.
Not even the rocks die. Science so
breaches the doctrine Of eternal life.

Italv's Many Visitors

reau That years total number of Wis

to more than 100000 in 1925, accord

visitors the largest proportion-1S6,-

were English and 10000 French. All
Of them together left $120,000,000 in
Italy covering more than half the
country's adverse trade balance. The
most popular month for tourists is
April, but August Italy's hottest
month comes second This is partly
because italian heat is by no means
so severe as many foreigners suppose,
and also because in midsummer thou

Billy Carlson picked up the phone
rather nervously and called his wife.
After few moments of aimless con-
versation he gulped a little and
brought it out: Vera, I've Just had a
wire from mother; she and dad are
coming to spend Easter with u.s.
Vera Carlson did not answer for
moment, then her voice came through
the wire cold and cutting you know,
Billy, we just can't have them now;
you will have to wire them to come
some other time. With the Gordons
coming to dinner, you know that it
would be just impossible to have them
You know how they are-why, it
would just spoil everything"
Billy swallowed hard as he listened,
but he tried to keep his voice cool
as he answered: "Vera It's not like
you to talk that way Mother and father
are all r1ght-a bit old-fashioned, I'll
confess, but as lovable as they can be.
They would be heartbroken If wired
them not to come-I just can't do it,
even for you Let's wait and talk
things over when l come home"
Billy knew that Vera had set her
whole heart on making a success of
their Easter dinner. She had asked
the Gordons, who were considered the
best and smartest people in Lonsdale,
and had been more than fiattered at
their acceptance For the past week
she had talked about it so much--only
last night she had told him she felt
everything was going to be lovely.
He fretted all day at the office and
dreaded facing Vera after her out
burst Of the morning, but even this
did not prepare him for the storm of
tears and protests that met him when
he went home. He had never seen
Vera like this before--it amazed and
shocked hinl--he had always felt that
The Monmouth inquirer., 1926-04-01

she really liked his parents. Surely
even people like the Gordons would un-
derstand that old folks that had al
ways lived in the country would be
different. Little by little he convinced
her that he could not stop his parents
coming, but he could not convince her
in the least that their coming would
not spoil her dinner party.
She met them, however, In her Gus,
tomary friendly way, for which he
was grateful, but he could see that
she was extremely nervous, especially
so when the Gordons arrived next day.
They all sat down in the lovely sun
lit dining room, which Vera had made
so attractive for this occasion A
beautiful mound of Easter lilies graced
the center of the table and the gleam-
ing glass and silver sparkled under
the spring sunlight that came through
the big windows. Billy was more
than nervous as the meal began; he
watched Vera and his mother and IA
Their at. Intervals, looking for some
thing to happen. But nothing did.
Apparently their other guests knew
nothing of the undercurrent of ner-
vousness that was there, for they were
talking and laughing as if they were
enjoying themselves thoroughly. And
as the meal progressed Vera looked at
them wonderingly several times as
they leaned close toward Billy's ia
thor and mother as If In fear that thew
would miss a word. After all, it
seemed as if the very thing that she
had said would cause the failure of
her party was making 1t a success.
That evening, after all the guests
had departed, Vera came to Billy's
side, tears shining in her eyes. HumbIy
she asked his forgiveness, telling him
that she had learned lesson that
she would not soon forget: II have
been so small, so little" she sobbed.
81 know / don't deserve your forgive
ness, Billy, but l am so sorry for the
way i acted. Why, the Gordons could
not stop telling me before they left
how much they had enjoyed your IA
tfer and mother. And to think tried
to make you stop them from coming f.
Billy forgave her, of course, and in
Nis heart he rejoiced because she had
learned a much-needed lesson.

Desert Edens That Are
ENarpe[s to Trnpeler

There are in the desert of southern
Tunisia three great GASES: Gabes by
the sea, a little north of that island
of Djerba which is traditionally, the
classical island of the Lotus Eaters
Tozeur, to the west Of it, some sew
enty miles inland, and Meta, fifteen
miles west of Tozeur, the starting
point of the caravans which trade
between southern Tunisia and the
great GASES of the Algerian Sahara,
Biskra and Touggourt
These GASES are all of much the
same size, each consisting of some
six or seven thousand acres of culti-
waited ground, and are all three re-
markable for their numerous and CO.
pious springs. In the middle of the
desert, suddenly, hundred fountains
come yelling out of the sand rivers
run, a network of little canals Is dug.
An innumerable forest of date palms
springs up-a forest whose under
growth is corn and roses, vines and
apricot trees, castor trees, banana
trees, every precious plant of the tenn
perate and the subtropical zones. No
rain falls on these little Edens-
except on the days of my arrival-but
the springs, fed from who knows
what distant source, flow inexhaust-
IDLY and have flowed at least since
Roman times. Islanded among the
sands, their green luxuriance is a
standing miracle.
That it should have been In des-
ert, with here and there such islands
of palm trees, that Judaism and Mo-
hammedanism took their rise is a
thing which, since l have seen an
oasis, astonishes me. The religion
which, in such a country, would nat
urally suggest itself to me would be
no abstract monotheism, but the ado
ration of life, of the forces of green
and growing nature.-Aldous Huxley

'sCoot'' Worn by Christ
on Road TO CaiUary?

In the ancient city of Treves on
the Moselle is to be found what Ia
said to be the holy Coat" believed
by the faithful to be the veritable
garment worn by Christ on his way to
crucifixion, and for which the soldiers
OF an earlier day "cast lots" En-
press Helena, mother of Constantine
the Great, was the donor Of this price
less memento-so priceless, indeed,
as only to be exhibited once in cen
fury to such of the faithful as had
gathered together from all parts of
the world to view it. THE coat"
says a one-time eyewitness. is a
loose garment, with wide sleeves, very
simple In form, of coarse material,
dark brown in color, possibly the re-
suit of it's age, and entirely without
seam or decoration. In parts it is
tender, or threadbare, and some few
stains upon il are reported to be
those Of the Redeemer's blood. 1T is
reputed to have worked many mir
acies in the way of cures. and its
efficacy has never been doubted in
Treves" In the year 1874, when the
coat, by order Of Archbishop Arnold,
was exhibited, pilgrims from all quar-
tiers of the world journeyed to gaze
upon the sacred relic, many arriving
before dawn at the cathedral doors !;
while sometimes the line (of waiting
persons) was more than a mile in
length. and few could reach the high
altar where the coat was placed in
less than three hours Fortunate, In
deed, did they consider themselves
who could manage to catch so much
IS q glimpse of the sacred garment.
