shade trees and ornamental shrubs.
The adult beetle is bright metallic
green in color, with coppery brown
wing covers. It flies easily and

Europeans Explored Ohio

Ohio was explored by Europeans
in the latter part of the Seventeenth
century. 1t was the pioneer state
which embraced also what is now
of the old Northwest Territory
Indiana, Illinois. Michigan, Wiscon-
sin and the northeast corner of
Minnesota. 1t was the battle-ground
of the Indian tribes. The French
explorers tried hard to get a foot
hold in this rich territory. They
planted leaden plates at the
mouths of the rivers and sought to
back up these GLAZING to sovereign
ty. John Bull later set himself up
as master of all this region, says
Pathfinder Magazine, and in 1774
the British parliament passed an
act annexing Ohio to Canada.

Dazzling White Mosques

Dazzling white ir the brilliant
sunshine, the walls of a mosque
almost blind one oy their glare
But enter. You pass into dark,
cool shadows, into silent interior,
bare and restful. Through the past
centuries bearded Moslems with
the blood of the unbelievers red on
their hands have gathered here to
bow down toward Mecca and beg
Allah's aid in fresh crimes. Yet
they thought them meritorious
deeds, by the truth of the Most
High! And every Friday the
faithful come here still, and who
shall say that none of them mutter
curses in their boards upon the
Christian dogs that rule hem?
The crowding houses of the city
end. Across the road is a scarped
hillside, with grass, gardens, and
trees. In a small open space ma
tive BARRIERS shave the scalps OF
clients or squat beside their chairs
waiting for trade, while their tools
- razors, scissors, clippers, mir
rors - are laid out ready on the
ground.
This open-air toilet saloon Is a
strange sight for the tourist, but
does not gain look from the pas

Suddenly one comes upon tombs
and the ground falls sharply away.
The eye ranges over the deep val

its benches or on the pavement
against its wall; and once or twice
a day he spends two cents in il
for cup of coffee.
From the market place lead mar.
row streets and, as in such eastern
cities as Cairo, Tunis, Delhi, and
Canton, each is lined with shops
devoted to one trade. Down this
one are the tailors. In the square
holes devoid of counters, tables, or
chairs, white-burnoosed, bearded
men resembling Biblical patriarchs
squat on the floor and sew
furiously
In the next street brass workers
hammer at bright pots and tall
water vessels, denting patterns in
to them with sharp-pointed instru-
mentS struck with mallets. Tin
smiths display piles of saucepans
and coffeepots. In the tiny shops
of the next crooked lane cobblers
stitch rapidly at the natives easy
red-leather slippers, or work beau
tiful designs with gold ard silver
threads and spangles on dainty
shoes for women.
Street Kitchen
Here is a break in the trades-un-
ion character of the shops. Outside
this one a small crowd eagerly
watches the movements of a youth
seated before a tiled stove running
up into a pointed chimney. A
small table stands beside him. In
a dish he mixes a white batter,
rolling it, pulling and twisting it
with nimble fingers, then dipping
it into oil and placing it in the
stove. His hand dives in once or
twice to turn the morsel.
Then with tongs he draws out a
crisp, golden puff, places it on a
small square of newspaper, thrusts
it into an eager, outstretched palm,
and receives a coin. The buyer
turns away. contentedly munching
the succulent titbit, and his place
is taken by another expectant pur-
chaser.
The next street blazes with color.
Here black-bearded Mozabites in
flowing Arab garb-heretical Nos

Sahara-or hooked-nosed Jews in
semi European attire display a
wealth of rainbow hued, long
fringed silk shaWls; gay colored
bodices and jackets; skirts and
other garments in pink, blue, yell
low, red; leather belts gold-buckled
and heavy with bullion and gold
embroidery; white wool or silk and
wool gandauras Qong gowns), and
crimson burnooses worked with
gold or silver.
Then comes the Street of the
jewelers.! Many of the shops have
glass windows displaying massive
silver bracelets three or four
inches wide, gold and silver ear
rings several inches in diameter,
huge necklaces of broad, beautifully
designed fiat silver and gold orna-
ments, fligree rings, heavy anklets
truly a street of delight for wom-
ankind.

which George signed a few hours
before his death, proclaimed the &C
cession of the new ruler as EDWARD
VIII. His first official act was to
notify the lord mayor of London OF
his fathers demise.
King George, who had been on the
throne almost twenty five years, was
the best loved and most democratic
of the worlds mOnarchs, always
lust. solicitous for the welfare OF his
subjects, and living simple and al
most faultless domestic and ofhclal
life. The new king, a confirmed
bachelor, knows his vast empire IN
timately, having visited practically
every part of it, some regions many
times. Decidedly different from his
father in his tastes and ways or
life. he still, as the prince OF Wales
has been great favOrite OF the peo-
pie. and in recent years, realizing
that he would soon have to mount
the throne, he steadied down and
took an increasing interest in the
affairs of the empire, He is espe-
cially liked by the laboring classes,
in whose welfare he often has
shown deep sympathy. That he
never married has been a diSappolnt-
ment to the British people. Now for
the first time since the reign OF Will
liam w there is no prince of Wales.
Next in the line of succession is the
kings brother, the duke of York,
and second comes the dukes little
daughter, Princess Elizabeth. There
will be six months or more OF OIL
cial mourning for Georges DEATH
and Edward VIII will not be
crowned for about one year.
The body of the dead ruler was
removed from Sandringham house
to the little church of ST. Mary Mag
dalene in sandringham. Thence II
was to be taken to Westminster alb

One description Of Daniel Web

webster arose to speak to packed
galleries. In appearance he was
grave and dignifed. He had the
noblest head America has produced
smooth -shaven. heavy featured.
with swarthy skin, brilliant eyes
and beetling brows, and his rich

a chime of bells. The simplest man
could follow his plain diction, while
his logic and weight of argument
delighted and convinced the most
