So she looked at 1 saw it to be with drip honey and she ame in a terrible rage and said: “Did I y bring it to me with bees’ honey? v is it that though bringest it to me honey of the sugar-cane?”’ And he zed to her, saying, “I bought 1t t save on credit,” but she threw it in his ice and ordered him to bring herother kun- She then struck him, knocking out his teeth, the blood flowing down s bosom, until by reason of his rage struck her one_slight blow, Whereat ized his beard, crying out, “O Mus- The neighbors, therefore, entered d him and reproached her, s all like to eat kunafeh thatis 1 drip honey. What is this oppressive ct toward this poor man? Verily, this zraceful!” Andthey effected a recon- tion between them and departed. But swore she would eat naught of the kuna- 1 and ceased not to revile him until mern- when she tucked up the sleeve from arm to beat him, so he said to her: tme a delay and I will bring thee some other kunafeh.” After he had said his prayers he opened his shop and sat, when two officers came 1 said, “Answer the summons of the 1 (Judge), for thy wife hath’ com- 1ed of thee.” And he said, “May God trouble upon her!” Then he arose went with them, and saw his wife eping, and with her arm bound. So Kadee said to him: “O man, dost not fear God, whose name be exalted ? is it that thou. beatest this wife .and est her arm and dost these deeds her?” And he said, ‘“‘Verily, the is s0 and so, and the neighbors made between me and her.’ And he ted the case, and the Kadee gave him a 1 of a piece of gold, and desired him , vurchase for her other kunafeh, but Maaroof said, ““Give it to her.” And he did so. And the Kadee made peace be- ween them, and they went forth recon- . and he went to his shop and sat n. Then came the two officers and de- nded their fee, and dragged him through the market to take it by force. So he sold liis tools and gave them half a piece of gold, and sat sorrowful because he bad mo tools with which to work. Tnen came two other sergeants to bim and said Arise! Answer the sum- mons of the adee, for thy wife hath complained against thee,” and this wa: another Kadee before whom they took | him. And when he saw his wife he said, O disingenuous woman! Haye we not de peace?” And she said, “There re- ineih no peace between thee and me.” Then he related to the Kadee his story and the Kadee said to her, “O impudent man. Wherefore has thou come com- ining to me?” and she said, ‘‘He beat after that,” and the Kadee said, “Make ace with eath other.” Then he charged treat each other kindly, e the sergeants their fee.” \ccordingly Maaroof gave them their fee and returned to his shop. And while be sat a man came and said: O Muarcof, arise! hide thyself; for thy vife hath complained of thée to the Sub- I'me Court and Aboo-Tabak is coming down upon thee.” So he rose, closed his €hop and fled. And he had remaininz from the sale of his implements but the little bread and cheese, and he ught these as he fled from her. And he went forth and it was raining, for it was w x in the winter season; so he entered thejw him, “O my master, With & view to stimulating & new inter- s THE CALL will print from ered from various sources and retold with | e desire to retain to the furthest possiole | gree the literary flavor and local coloring make them valuable, but bearing in mind ct that Jife s short and that the bound- sure of the Oriental narrator does not | »eople of that city had nicknamed | r evil and mischief-making disposi- > and he went forth | possession the price | And when he had per- | at therein until midday, but no | pon his lot if he returned | xed concerning his case, and he passed the shop of the seller of kunafeh with | Then the seller. | , “O master weepest thou?’ And he i hath de- : “I have the clarified but- | will not h thee.” Do thou enter it, for thy wif know any way by which to rea Then he departed. Maaroof was in a state of confusion and | f[gfld@@n\l}@ Y | me what shall I say?” OF. hast brought with thee some of such kind | of stuff?” and Maaroof answered, ‘“Abund- ance.”” For the merchant Alee had that | day shown him the various kinds of costly stuffs and told him the names of the stuif, dear and cheap, and had instructed him to say that he had come on in ad- vance of his caravans of goods, and when | his merchandise should arrive he had of Then one or the all goods abundance. master, hast merchants said: “O my thou with thee yellow cloth?’ He an- swered, *‘Abundance.” He said, “And red of gazelle’s blood?” - He answered, “Abundance.” . And every time one asked him respecting anything he an- | swered, ‘“Abundance.” And while they sat. lo,a begear came round to the mer chants, and most of vhem gave him not | aught, until he came to Maaroof, who took for him a handful of gold and gave bim. So he prayed for him and the merchants | wondered and said, “*Verily, it"is the gift of kings.” And after a while there came to him a poor woman, and to her he gave a bhandful of gold, and he continued to rive to the beggars who came, until he Rad exhausted the thousand pieces of gold, when he struck hand upon hand in grief. So the Shah-Bandar of the merchants said _to him: “What aileth thee, O Merchant Maaroof?” and he said: “It seemeth that the most of the people are poor, and if T had known it I would have brought with me in my saddlebags a large sum of money; but I have pow with me no gold remain- | ing; therefore when a poor man cometh to He answered him) “Say to him, ‘God sustain thee.’” But he replied: *It is not wy custom. Would that I had a thousand pieces of gold, that I might give alms until my merchandise arrives.” So the Shah-Bandar of the Verily, the merchants are clamorous for their money. And how wilt thou pay the debt 2" ‘And he said: “What will be the conse- quence? When the merchandise shall arrive I will recompense them a!l.‘ Upon this the merchant Alee said: ‘‘God is most great! Hast thou merchandise?”’ And he said, *‘Abundance.” And he said: AL lah ‘and the Rijal requite thee for thy | turpitude! Did i teach thee this saying that thon shouldst utter it to me?’ And he left him in anger, but dared not shame him before the merchants, for he said within himself, **I praised him before, and if 1 blame him now I become a liar, as it is said, *‘He who praiseth and censur- eth lieth twice.” And he became perplexed regarding his case. Then the merchants | repaired to the King and acquainted him | with what haa happened, and the King | was filled with amaze at the recital, for | the merchants ceased not to speak of the generosity of the merchant, Maaroof, who had distributed to the poor the 60,000 pieces of gold which he was_}ndebted to the merchants. And the King sent for him and caused him to be brought before him, as will be set forth, together with the remaining adventures of the Merchant | Maarooi, in a succeeding chronicte. — ROMANCE OF A WIG. [ A Very Simple Trick That Ended in a Tragedy. A tragic ending to a comic scene has re- | sulted in the heroine of the adventure be- | ing conveyed to the hospital in a very pre- carious state, while the hero is securely under lock and key at the depot of the Prefecture of Police in Paris. The whole affair turned on some silly fun and stupid horseplay about a wig. A young man had | been fascinated the attractions of a | girl a few vears his junior and had asked | to be permitted to” pay his attentions to | her, but she was by 1o means disposed to | return the compliment, as he had become | very bald through illness, and, as the ob- | ject of his affections concisely put it, she | would never dream of marrying any one th no hair on his head. The youth meditated over his discom- | upon him. He would repair the ravages of unkind nature by a recourse to art,and | s| | s | = | CONTIM HAD “AND HE JED TO GIVE TO THE BEGGARS WHO CAME UNTIL HE ED THE THOUSAND PIECES OF GOLD.” | perplexity, but when the sun arose he | descended the mountain and beheld a city | | with high walls, lofty pavilions and deco- | rated buildings, a delight to the beholders. | He entered the gate and the people gath- ered about him, diverting themselves with | the sight of him. And a man of the city said to him, “O man, art thou_ a| stranger?’ He answered, *Yes.” ~He | said to him, “From what country?”’ He | | answered, ““From the unfortunate city of | Cairo.” The man said to him, ‘“‘Hast | thou quitted it long?” He answered him, ‘‘Yesterday, in the evening.” | and thereupon he laughed at him and | | called out, ““O people, come and see this | | man, who asserteth that he came forth vesterday from Cairo.” And they laughed at him and said, “Between our and Cairo is the space of a whole year’s jour- ney.”’” But be replied, “I am veracious in my saying, and this is bread of Cairo | that "hath not ceased to remain with me | moist.” And he showed them the bread | and they diverted themselves with looking | at it, and said one to another: “This is | |-bread of Cairo. Divert yourself with the sight of it.”’ And while they were in this state, lo, a merchant advanced to them, riding on | a mule, and behind him were two black slaves, and he railed at the people for their | conduct in thus treating a stranger, and said to Maaroof: ‘‘Come, hither, O my | brother. No harm sha!l befall thee from these. Verily, they have no shame.” | Then he conducted Maaroof to his own | home, and ciad him in a dressfit fora | merchant pos ing a thousand purses, |and Maarooi was a comely person, |80 that he became as though he | were Shah-Baudar (chief) of the merchants. After that the merchant asked him hIS’ name, and when Maaroof had told him | and that he was from Cairo, he said, “From what quarter?”’ Maaroof said to | | him, “Dost thou_ know Cairo?”’ and the | merchant said, “I am of its sons.” And | he further said, “Dost thou know the | Sheykh Ahmad, the druggist,’ and he | said, “He is my neighbor.” And the mer- | chant said, “What hath Goa done with his i | children?” and he answered: “It is thus | | and so with the two elder; and as w0 | Alee, he was my companion, and we used | to enter the church of tke Christians | and steal the books and sell them. But | it hsrpened once that the Chris- | { aid tians hold of us and complained | | to our fa! ilies and his father gave him a | beating, and for this reason he fled, and he | hath been absent twenty years and no one hath given any tidings of him.” | Upon this the merchant said, “He is | myself and thou art my companion, Maa- ‘ root.”” They saluted each other and after the salutation Maaroof acquainted him with the history of his wife, Fatimeh El-Orrah, | and the manner of his coming out of | Cairo, and the merchant Alee said: | “In the country wherenoone knoweth thee | do whatsoever thou wilt. I will teach thee how to act.” And on the morrow he gave him a thou%and pieces of gold and put him upon a mule, and a slave walked before | nim to the market. And when the mer- | chant also saw him he arose and threw himself upon him, saying to him, “A blessed day, O Merchant Maaroof, O man of good works and of kindness!” ‘Then | he kissed his hand before the merchant and said: “O our brothers,the merchant Maaroof hath delighted you by hisarrival.” They thérefore saluted him; and the mer- chant Alee proceeded to go apart with them, one after another, and praise Maaroof, saying: “Yes, indeed, he 1is the | greatest of merchants and there existeth not any one more wealthy than he, for his wealth and the wealth of his fathers and his forefathers are notorious among the merchants of Cairo.” Then .they | came together to bim and presented | him with food for breakfast and | | sherbet. Even the Shah - Baudar of | the merchants came to him, and saluted him, and the merchant Alee said probably thou merchants said “No harm,’”’ and he sent for one of his dependants, who brought a thou- sand pieces of gold and gave to Maaroof, who proceeded to distribute it among the poor who came to him. And the people prayed for him, and when tbe second thousand pieces of gold were gone he in- clined to another merchant and obtained from him 1000 pieces &nd distributed them, and the merchant Alee was obsery- ing his actions, but could not speak. He ceased not to do thus during the day, and they closed not the gate of the market until he bad received 5000 pieces of gold and distributed them, and to every one from whom he received aught he said, “Wait until the merchandize shall arrive and I will recompense thee.” He ceased not to do thus for the space of twenty days, until he had received from | the people 60,000 pieces of gold, and there came not to him merchandise nor a burn- ing plague. So the people were clamorous for their money and said to the merchant Alee “The merchandise of the merchant Maaroof hath not yetarrived,” and hesaid, “Be ye patient, for it must arrive soon.” Then” he sought Maaroof and said: “O Maaroof, what are these deeds? Did I say to thee, ‘Toast the bread, or burn it? forthwith he wended his way to 2 hair- dresser’s shop and became the delighted possessor of a wig with curls and lovelocks and elaborate partings in front and behind, which, as he fondiy hoped, would produce the desired impression on the heart of the. obdurate young woman. R Thus adorned he praceeded that evening to a restaurant where she was dining witix some friends, but to his horror she not only burst out laughing when he appeared on the scene, but presently made a dash at the wig, which she tore off, revealing his | denuded head to the astonished gaze of the pariy. \ The youth endeavored to wrest the wig from: her grasp, and so, finding herself hard pressed, the fair mawden passed it over to one of her companions, who tossed it to the other side of the room, and then, | as, ignorant of the fact, he still struggled, she dealt him a slap in the face. Beside himself wtth disappointment and wrath, the young man snatched a knife from the table, and ere the spectators of the scene could interfere, he stabbed the girl in the neck. Cries of dismay now re- sounded instead of the peals of laughter hich had hitherto rent the air as the young woman fell fainting to the floor. The police were summoned, an1 while the | youth was led off in custody the girl was | taken to the shop of a neighboring drug- “fist, pending her removal to the hospital. | Tt is feared that she will not recover.—Lon- don Telegraph. | B | ADVERTISING IS BOOMING. Chicago Results. Every advertising agent testifies to the fact that more advertising is going out this fall than was ever known before. The boom in this line, after the dullness of the last two years, is comething wonderful. The advertising of food products is contributing largely to this. This | 1s & line of advertising which has only been de- veloped during the last few years, and the field is so great that it promises to exceed medical advertising. e —-———— Paderewski’s invalid son is an unusually brilliant boy, despite’ his hopeless condition.
