Industry, Basra was the port from which Slnbad set out on his voyages of trade and adventure. Slnbad was not. a myth, but a real man with a sailors love for the sights of foreign lands, Louis A. Springer writes In Asia. It must have been a great event when be sailed away with his fleet of, dhows and when he returned with China and the treasures, of far-of- f Eastern islands. The Basra of today Is a mean little town In .a clearing of palm trees two miles from the river, and at its port, instead of the ladened dhows are rusty tramp steamers with tawdry .wares of the West. Farther up the valley, at Kurna, where the Euphrates and Tlfris Join, is the site of the Carden of Eden; are the ruins of Babylon and beyond on the bank of the Tigris is the romantic city of Bagdad where the great caliph, attracted the wits and the wealth of Islab aad ruled In lavish splendor. Down the Arabian coast are great ruins, still almost unexplored. Lovat Fraser, a close student of thia region, believes that some day It will be demonstrated that here was the scene of momentous events that determined the course Of the human race while the shores of the Mediterranean were yet In impenetrable darkness and that here the first dim of civilization glimmerings dawned upon the mind of primitive man. tra-dltlon- al Haron-al-Itashi- d, , , ASSOCIATION Pure Bred and Registered ' EXPERT KODAK Finishing our SHOW STOCK IMPORTED AND DOMESTIC RAMS AND EWES' Ol&aekfh, Nv tli di Gu'nr,4 terms ll wanted br unalat condi tlon-s- ssr I'flu earttev W me lot derailed li and desert nem, Used Ctf Dept..

This difference In the completion of people is due to the varying amount of pigment or coloring material In the cells of which the skins of all animals are made. Very light people have very little pigment; very dark people, those with dark eyes and black hair, have a great deal - of this coloring material In their cells. A great many people are neither light nor very dark. They have less than the dark complexioned people and more than the light complexioned People. When the hair turns gray It is because the pigment has disappeared. As this is due to the loss of this coloring material, dark complexioned people turn gray sooner than light complexioned people. The structure of the skin showing bow these cells are made In layers can be seen by examining the skin with a microscope. That Loose Shoe String. Little things often lead to serious consequences.

But to these people 1 would No, no! You do not know say: It is 'not poor France, France, jour but noble France. Not tragic France, but heroic France! I cap best explain my meaning by describing an incident which took place on the occasion of one of the recent air raitft on Paris. An air raid is a g time. The newspaper accounts and the magazine stories do not tell you of the anguish lived through by the people who crouch In their cellars, listing to bombs that explode close by and expecting all the tfine that the next missile will demolish the house over their heads. The favorite gathering places for civilians during air raids Is in the cellars. During the raid of which I speak, one of these underground placed was crowded with refugees. But they were not, moping or trembling. Instead, they were cot stantly Joking and laughing about their predicament. They did not for one second their fine courage and stanchness. When the bombs had ceased to fall, they came up to the street level once more: But they did not breathe great sighs of rejm and thank their lucky stars for not being hit. Not they! Their eyes glowed with the fire of unquenched spirit, and they shook theirflsts In the direction of the nerve-rackin- th 'lse departing Germanrfrpianes. Those fools ! they shouted. "Those fools !

She was working at washing linen for the soldiers who were in trenches not far away. Her own house had been burned down by the Germans. She told me her pathetic story. it seems that a German officer who had a very bad reputation for molesting the civilians had been quartered in her house. After he had been there for a few hours he went to the small stove which heated the house and opened It to put in Some wood. But when he put In the stick of wood he allowed the end to protrude, so that, as soon as it began to burn, the fire blazed outward Into the room. lie then placed a screen near this blazing wood so that it would catch fire.
