Carolina Coca-Cola Company TRAVELED BY DEVIOUS WAYS I Correspondent Experienced Acute Dl* comfort While on a Journey Through the Holy Lend. It la eight or nine miles, us I esti mate, from the Kuphrutes to Constan tinople, if one follow* tin* course of the Hagdad railroad, whoso track is leld ii part of tho way where tho t'?*?*t ?f tho "ten thousand" had marched, where St. Paul hud trumped in his first and second missionary Journeys, aud where Godfrey of Boulllou, Tail ored, Baldwin, Raymond und Bohe inoiul tmd passed, and Frederick the First had perished. In my unuhusls (if I muy give my lonely expedition a name so ambitious aud yet mo contemned hy many a youth) from the Kuphnites toward Constantinople I had to make a cir cuitous Journey, as did St. Paul from Damascus, writes John H. Flnloy In July Scribuer's. 1 went. first from Aleppo to Damascus, then to Jeru salem, tlven to Haifa (near old Caesarea where St. Paul took ship), and then hy "sea to Beirut and Herfhh. on tije const of Asia Minor, a few miles from St. Paul's "home town" Tarsus, which was also the sumo town as that toward which Jonah sailed from Jaffa, when evading the call to Nineveh. Hut the reader would, I fear, And this an uncomfortable and perhaps a tiresome trip, even to rend of, for i traveled most of the wuy in freight cars (of the type known to our soldiers in France, accommodating "forty-five homines or eight chevaux") on a trawler (which was absolutely the most uncomfortable means of transportation that I lwul ever en dured) and on a British "destroyer" which might very fitly have borne St. Paul's name before he changed It, In the duys when he was "breathfng otif threatcnlngs and slaughter." There Is a ?shorter and less- Indirect way, for, speaking generally, there is no direct wuy from one pluce to an other In that part of the world. This Is proljftbly the reason why the street in Damascus called "Straight" pit its distinguishing name. SUFFERED FOR THEIR FAITH French Huguenots Driven Into Exile by the Revocation of the Edict of Nantes. T1m> Huguenots were the Puritans of France In the sixteenth, and seven teenth centuries. The name was first used ubout ir>60; its ^rlgln is un 'known. The Huguenots suffered se verely In tile reigns of Francis I and his immediate successors, und after' 1502 were frequently Involved In war, under the leadership of such mefi as , Admiral Collgny and King Henry of Navarre, afterwards Henry IV of France. Collgny and from 20,000 to 30,000 others fell in the massacre of St. "Karttioloniew, August 24, 1572. It Is disputed in history whether this was suddenly causftl by the discov ery of Huguenot plots or had been premeditated. In spite of all this, they continued njjfcierous and power ful and the edict of Nantes, issued in 1508 by Henry IV gave them full po litical and civil rights. Their power was broken after the surrender of LaRochelle and the revocatibn of the edict of Nantes by Isouis XIV In 1685, and hundreds of thousands of Hugue nots went Into exile, gelng to Pros* sla, Holland, Switzerland, England, Scotland and America. , { J Chinese Curb Tobacco Users. China's ministry of the interior has telegraphed the following circular in structions to the Shenchangs and T>u tungs all over the country, according to the Peking Dally News : "It has been noticed that almost everybody in the country has Indulged in the use of cigars or cigarettes, which will become a worse curse to the nation than opium In former days unless some restrictions are imposed. It Is hereby decided that before taking up any measure for the total prohibi tion of its use, the following restric tions shall be imposed: First, no boy or girl under eighteen years of age shall be allowed to smoke cigars or cigarettes ; second, any military or na val man using it shall be punished; third, the use of cigars and cigarettes In all government schools and colleges shall be strictly prohibited."? Far Eastern Bureau Bulletin. Legislators Must Work. A novel method of forcing attend ance in the chamber of deputies of the Republic of Argentina htks been sug gested by a member who is out of pa tience with those who draw their sala ries from the public purse but fail to fulfill their constitutional obligation of regular attendance. The suggestion is in the form of a bill providing for payment per day to deputies Instead of a lamp sam every month. Failure to answer the roll call Is equivalent to absence, and the measure provides that no deputy shall receive his pay for days when he Is absent from the regular sessions. Land for Nations!
