For example, the Turkish women who now are to be •Emancipated’ have had absolute Control of their own property for hundreds of years, whereas the German wives cried in vain for such ‘emancipation’ under the kaiser.” ■ The bulletin quotes from a communication by Mary Mills Patrick, which gives a vivid picture of the condition of Turkish women before the world

war, as follows:' “It is a well-known fact that Roman law regarded the rights of the Individual without consideration of sex; a man or a woman was alike a citizen of the Roman world. This met the requirements of Mohammedan life, where do woman ever necessarily sustained a lasting relation with any man. “Therefore, during all the centuries of Mohammedan history, women have legally controlled their own property. They have been free to buy. sell, or alienate It without consulting any male relative. This has given them Independence of thought and an influence in business affairs that seems wholly inconsistent with their life of comparative personal slavery. “Enter a harem and there you see a Circassian b.eauty, who has been newly acquired by the tall, handsome pasha who has just passed you in the street The air is heavy with the odor of eastern perfume, and the black eunuch stands by the door to watch all who come" and go. The beauty herself is thickly powdered, with an elaborate coiffure erected by her numerous maids. Jewels half cover her arms, and she wears a beautifully embroidered negligee. There is. a languorous expression In' her black eyes, as she sits idly smoking a cigarette and sipping Turkish coffee. “Would you think, to look at her, that when she draws her money from the bank that she must sign her own check? These two sides of life have been wholly at variance with each other; but, as years have gone by, the thoughtful side has predominated among the more Intellectual Mohammedan women, until now they are ready to enter into the affairs of today with an understanding and vigor which the'world has never accredited to them. 4 . “It has been on the social side that Mohammedan women have suffered most under the oppression -of the past, especially from the frequency of divorce. A man could legally divorce his wife at any minute, the only condition being the payment of the dowry which was settled upon her by the hfisband at the time of her marriage. siSSriSe been made to prevent all possible progreus among them. Laws have been proclaimed over and over again for-

Sing Mohammedan women to atforeign schools. In this emergency they engaged governesses. Most of these governesses were aliens, and many of them were inefficient, and bad moral guides to so large a portion of the population beginning to think and question. The governess system obtained so much influence after a shorttime that laws were made forbidding women to have governesses. Yet they struggled on in an effort for mental illumination, reading, writing, talking things over among themselves, and Sometimes getting help from their bustbands and brothers.. They have, accomplished much, with so heavy a .handicap, in literature, science, commerce and politics."

She was a most charming little perKM at a Red Cross canteen tn an army camp. Everyone called her Peggy and her conquests among the soldiers from the rest camps were many. ? One afternoon a young officer came in and asked for her. She was out and I undertook to entertain him. Hitherto Peggy had not counted officers among her adorers, or at least not tn our sight Hoping to make him feel more at ease I talked of Peggy, her popularity, her charms, her shameless flirtations; he was silent. “Pave you known her long?” I Mked ‘ , IS*™’ • Be stammered, blushed, and replied: she's my wife.”—Chicago Tribune.

Thousands Have Kidney Trouble and Never Suspect It Applicants for Insurance Often Rejected. Judging from reports from druggists who are constantly in direct touch with the public, there is one preparation that baa been very successful in overcoming these conditions. The mild, and healing influence of Dr. Kilmer’s Swamp-Boot is soon realized. It stands the highest for its remarkable record of success. - An examining physician for one of the prominent Life Insurance Companies, in an interview on the subject, made the as* tonishing statement that one reason why so many applicants for insurance are rejected is because kidney trouble is so common to the American people, and the large majority of those whose applications are declined do not even suspect that they have the disease.

Next time you are Inclined to believe that high prices have been sent by the frowers above to vex this day and generation alone. Just ponder upon these words written by John F. Watson of New York city In 1843, under the head. Ing “Changes of Prices,” In a book of fate published in 1847: “It is curious to observe the'change* which have occurred in the course of years, both in the supply of common articles sold In the markets and 1* seme cases in the great augmentation of prices—for Instance, Mr. Brower, who has been quite a chronicle to me, has told me such facts as the following, Viz.: “He remembered well when abundance of the: largest- Blue Point oysters could be bought, opened to your hand, for 2s a 100 such as would now bring from three to four dollars Best sea bass were but 2d a pound, now at Bd. Sheephead sold at 9d to Is 3d apiece,and will now bring $2. Rock fish were plenty at one shilling apiece for good ones. Shad 3d They did not then practice the planting of oysters. Lobsters were *not then brought to market. “Mr. Jacob Tabelee, who Is as old as 87. and of course saw earlier than the other, has told me a sheephead used to be sold at 6d, and the best oysters at Is a 100. In fact they did not stop to count them, but gave them tn that. proportion and rate by the bushel. Rock fish at 3d a pound. Butter 8d to 9d. Beef by the quarter in winter 3d a pound, by the piece 4d. Fowls about 9d apiece. Wild fowls in great abundance. He has bought twenty pigeons in their season for one shilling; a goose was 2s. Oak wood was abundant at 2s the load. Thus Mr. Watsen of the early nineteenth century thinks longingly of liow easy it must have been to live when Brother Tabelee was young. He continues: “In 1763 the market price of provisions was established by law and published in ’ the Gazette. Wondrous cheap they were, viz: A cock turkey 4s, a hen turkey 2s 6d, a duck Is, a quail I%<L a heath hen Is 3d, a teal Bd, wild goose. 2s, a brant Is 3d, snipe Id, oysters 2s a bushel, sheephead and sea baas three coppers per pound,, milk per quart 4 coppers, clatos 9d a 100, cheese 4%d. . “Those celebrated *Blue Points’ were destroyed by -an intended kindness. A law was passed to exempt them from continual use, and by not being continually fished up they got embedded in the mud and wholly died out I”

Mother’s Gratitude.

' Somewhere in America there is a nurse from overseas who wears a short strand of small, round pink beads. She calls it her “Croix de Guerre.” Just before Chateau-Thier-ry, when the refugees were pouring out of eastern France, a young girl with big, dark eyes came with a sick baby to one of the hospitals behind the lines. During the first few weeks at the hospital the baby whimpered and wailed constantly, but with the nurse’s unremitting care it gradually grew well and strong. The day the little mother was leaving she sought out the nurse whose untiring patience and kindness had meant the return of her baby’s health. “This, ma’m’selle,” she said, holding a string of pink beads in her outstretched hand, "I want you to have it; it is the only thing I have left besides ifiy-baby, and you have saved him for me." < ' “Just a tiny happening in the big story -of*-the world the Modern Hospital in relating the Incident. “but one which wll| long live In the memory of the nurse whom it so closely touched." *

RARE DOUBLES TO MONARCHS

Resemblances, Fancied and Real, Have Given Rise to Some Highly Imaginative Stories. Most monarchs possess at least one double, but so far the double of the present shah of Persia has not been discovered. His grandfather, Nasr-ed-Din, had a famous double In the person of Edmund Yatee. The resemblance between these two was so striking that Yates’ photographs were sold in Brussels as the shah’s when Nasr-ed-Dtn visited that city. However, he never suffered through the possession of a double as another monarch dld.lf we may credit a theory of Andrew Lang’s. According to that Ingenious historian, Queen Elizabeth and Darnley were doubles. The second husband of Mai? Queen 1 of Scots was not, as Is generally supposed, blown up in the explosion of Kirk o’ Field, but escaped into England. He then somehow got Elizabeth at his mercy and ultimately secured her throne, posing as the queen to tffe end of his days. Thanks to the amazing resemblance between the two, the Imposture was not discovered until after Darnley’s death. —Manchester Guardian. ■ la a. aaj
