Imperial Turkish Harem Is Opened To Public Today Ancient Secrets of Istan. bul Ordered Revealed for 25c¢ a Person. By the Associated Press. ISTANBUL, Turkey, April 7.—Once royal dispenser of terror and mystery o the mystery-loving world, Istanbul is | now selling the last of her secrets. Today, by order of the Turkish repub- | lic, the doors of the imperial harem of the Seraglic Palace of the Ottoman Sultants will be thrown open. Then infidels and followers of the Prophet alike may pass, for the price of 25 cents. the threshold whose crossing would once have cost them their lives. For almost two years repairs have been under way to make ready this last portion of the Seraglio Palace for opening to the public. For four and a half centuries this was the most jeal- ously guarded corridor of the vast pal- ace, and of the vast Ottoman empire, great walls, heavy bronze gates, thou- sands of soldiers without and hundreds of eunuchs within kept inviolate the mystery of the imperial harem. There is one room of the harem apartments where the public will not enter today, or perhaps ever. Outside its heavily grilled windows, where 40 Moslem priests chant from the Koran year in and year out, the public may stand and peek. Only sultan-caliphs have ever entered that sanctuary, re- puted to hold the mantle and the beard of the Prophet. Locke, Novelist, Shows Gain. PARIS, April 7_(/).—Condition of illiam J. Locke, British novelist, who has been ill here; was said today to be slightly _improved. Going Thru Happiest Days of Her Life “Why shouldn’t T smile,” says Mrs. Nancey Yager of Robi od Hail, Elmhurst, Long Island, N. Y., “when 1 I finally found that I can be free from the trouble I suffered from a sour stomach, by simply taking that mar- velously pleasant new medicine called Acidine. It has cleared up the rash on my skin, and 1 have more pep | than I need, now.” | Not more than one person in a hundred has a stomach so perfect | that it needs no help to digest the starchy food, and sweets, which make stomachs sour. It's these excessive acids which thin the blood, lower vour energy and cause skin rash. The first signs of too much acid are sick stomach, indigestion, burning sensation in throat, gassy belching. Try Acidine just once and you will see why more than two million peo- | ple depend on it. Get it at any drug store.—Advertisement. WHO can describe a fnountain?
