We sat in a house la Basra on a cloudy evening, looking oat ef tha window, watching tba shadow? forms of passersby. "Yon will notice that tha Arab (tousaa have blank walls facing the street," he told me. "If tha walla are broken by windows these axe barred. Tf there are doors these are small or else secured. Do not think this la done for tha sake of keeping the women sheltered or the sun off. It la to keep thieves out. "One night I was sitting in this I bonne with my friends when a knock camo at the door. First 1 looked out of the window. 1 saw a number of people on two sides of the house. I went to the door and I said: 'Who Is there?' T3?e answer was: 1 am a thief.' ' "1 suppose in America if anyobe was so lunatic aa to say that, you would telephone for the.police. But here under the Turks it was wise to let the thieves In. Why not? There were too many of them, and they would have been angry and would have killed some of us lu revenge some day. So we 1st In the man who knocked, and some of his friends came with him.

The thieves were very angry. 'KVe must have something,' 'they 'said. So they sent for a cart, and they took what furniture and bedding and cook Ing dishes they wanted, and then wen' away. They left us our Uvea, and that was about alL "Ton see how quiet these streets are I even now, about nine o'clock?

It Is still to l day a popular temple for Dllsrrlms. who come In the spring, when the cherries are In full blossom and all the lanterns are lighted to transport them elves back to the days when the gods were young. The Mango Industry. The office of foreign seed and plam Introduction of the United States De pertinent of Agriculture has asaetn bled, through the work of Its explorers and through exchange with the British Bast Indian departments of agricul tore, one of the largest collections of selected mango varieties In the world. There are now frfiltlng at the plain introduction field station, Miami, Fla? about twenty varieties this star, and these represent the selections from mere than seventy sorts of this great fruit. Some of these have scarcely move fiber than a freestone peach and can' be cut open lengthwise and eaten as easily with a spoon as a Rocky Ford cantaloupe. They have an Indescribably agreeable aroma reminiscent of pineapples. The mango tree, when ft Id tn bearing, la a gorgeous sight, for It Is a large long-lived tree and the gplden-yellow fruits as they bang In grant clusters from the dark green foliage make one of the great tropical plant sights of the worlds?Indianapolis Mews.

The suddenness with which the grant war broke oat, and the cenfusion of aalnd that overtook persons who werb not lf> s position to follow closely the course of events day by day. Is amusingly shown by this story told in RveTybody's Msgs sine. A British administrative official. sta tinned la a Tillage in the Interior of Africa.

Thero la No Interference With Any Form of Revelry That Could Be Thought Of. Constantinople now com blues all the frenzy of a Dew mining camp and a vorld seaport. Ifs "the end of the trull" Cor all the Balkan states and everything west of Suez on the Mediterranean. Caucasian oil iuen, Doaetx Basin minora, Anatolian slieep and cattle kings, Greek war millionaires and Syrian merchants rush to Constantinople to pop champagne In proof of their ( success. Soldiers and sailors of half a dozen nations swell the population and add to the cosmopolitan aspect of the streets uud pleasure resorts. Under allied occupation the city has become a wilder place than it was under the Turks. There are no civil courts. None of the allies desire to ssuine responsibility for reforms oth i r than are necessary to safeguard life. Italia u, French and British roops co-operate with the Turkish i.endanqerle In keeping order. But < verybody's Job Is nobody's Job. Consequently Constantinople Is a very ' Ule-open town. Midnight closing U> ?nforced pretty generally, but until that hour there is little Interferene* vlth dance halls, gambling dives and i ledlight districts unless murder Is committed. Lendvllle and Ooldfield in their dlz : h?st days never offered anything wilder than certain sections of Con ? tnntinople, where Juss bands vie with Neapolitan orchestras and tslganc ringers in their efforts to. attract wayfarers Into the beer tunnels and dan-"*' halls filled to overflowing with the painted women of many nationalities. Half n do sen summer gardens offer andevllle programs which attrart housands of persons every night who -eem to have far more Interest In the drinks mid restless crowds than in 'he Russian prima donnas and bare legged dancers whose art Is usually us meager as their attire. Turks. Yrahs. Bedouins. Egyptians and Assyrians. gorgeously clad In native cos tames, elbow their way among Cossacks and Georgians whose uniforms re far more brilliant thnn their re j ent military achievements. Conl-blnck French colonials, re- ! plendent in red fczzes and green klia- , kl, mingle with Sikhs and Punjabi, whose long hair and many-colored headdresses are wrapped In somber brown. Civilians, soldiers and sailors from all parts of the world are hope 'essly Jumbled together In Constantinople crowds mid are so busy looking at each other that tenors from the Petrograd opera, naughty French singers from Montmartre and Austrian strong-Jawed ladies claim but slight attention. Constantinople itself la a grand pageant every duy. Ita main thoroughfare, Rue Grand Pero, is more fascinating than any scene which prolucers ever can hope to stage. Cauiel Jrlvers lend their patient trains, burdened wltto charcoal, through the maze of street cars, shrieking army motor cars and enrriagest piloted over the rough paving at breakneck speed by Turkish hostlers who crock their whips and shout constantly at high pitch to ?K. -OP ?1 ?

Occasionally Tnrtrlsh peasants drive tv flock of Sheep or ttitfreys into this swirl of traffic and serene nxon draw heavy carts along at n pace so slow that drivers of military camions curse them In 10 languages. The narrow, crooked streets of Constantinople are Ill-suited to motor traffic and the slow-going fatalistic Turk Is little Inclined to change his pace. Consequently there are many accidents and the Indifference with which foreign military cars are driven has done much to intensify Turkish hatred of foreigners. Few American Linguist*. Accordis^ to the Interchujrch World movemep-t; thirty-two different languages Mfcifles Knglish are spoken In New York city by some 1,700.000 people; but, In .spite of our polyglot city .copulations, native Americans are seldom gifted as linguists. The >es of idass distinction In America, although elastic, are more of a handicap In thHt respect than they are in Europe. The European who lives ueur an international boundary comes frequently in to contact with foreigners of his own utclal and intellectual Interests, hut most Americans see little of the lor elgner* among our people and neither inherit nor get by constant practice a facility In using other tongues. ?
