long service his compensation has
been increased gradually until it now
amounts to $10.05 a month. His duties
consist of greeting all callers at the
consulate and carrying messages for

Only on great occasions will he sub

He does not speak English and the
visitor has to write his name on a
small writing pad carried by AsiIin
before he can go inside. Living in
the rear of the consulate the mes
senger is always on hand, his only
holiday being on the native New Year
day when he goes to the Mosque. De-
spite his modest income, Asikin is
classed as rich man by the natives,

PARIS, April 2.-The hammock is
being discovered in France. Relief
for crowded city apartments is seen
in the hammock as q bed.
City authorities are considering
their use in public institutions. Serious

Sailors prefer hammocks to beds,
argues a city alderman. He reminds
the public that the cheap mesh ham,

The French use elaborate costly
