Jordan Coprright, 1919, by The Prem Publishing On (The New York Bening World.) 'N the tour of King Albert on his way to the West, most of the people cf the country are not only seeing a real, live king for the first time in their lives, but they are seeing and meeting a real democratic sovereign ‘with a wonderful history behind. But the popular Monarch and his Queen are not the first of royal families to touch our shores, The first King to land in Amefita was King Kalakaua of ‘the Hawaiian Islands, and after him came his sister, Queen Lilivokalani. Queen Lil made @ hit with her name, for every time it was enunciated there loomed up Memories of the lakes of Killarney, But Kalakaua was a democrat through and through and SOME eport!

He brought @ quintette of musicians, | vocal and instrumental, and the songs of the Sandwich Islands were first heard on our shores. “Aloha|k | Nai" waa the first song to be re- + membered and there were a whole lot that His Royal Highness parted with. Billy Emerson taught poker, which delighted Kalakau be- yond measure. When Billy got back to San Francisco he used to tell that he woald have brought the Crown Jewels with him only the Prime Min- ister kept them locked up, When his Sprung this one: ‘Do I ead er? Gure.

And Billy started tell- ing the story over again as soon as the royal feet touched the shores of San Francisco and the King went to hear him tell it.

They come from a charming and talented Englishwoman, Miss Grace Ellison, who, after a life devoted to literature, travel and s0~ clal service, has come to the United States in her most recent capacity as foundress and directress of the French Flag Nursing Corps. During the war she served as a nurse, often in front line dressing stations under fire, till her health gave way, and now she is working to provide scientifically trained nurses for the reconstruction period in France. But no part of Miss Ellison's varied career {s more interesting and unique than the nine months she spent in a Turkish harem. It was just before the war and she was the guest of the daughter of the late Grand Vizier Kaim!] Pasha. She has described some of the things sho saw and heard in her book, “An Englishwoman in a Turkish Harem,” a new edition cf which is about to appear in this country. But I never fully realized the charms of harem life until I heard her sum them up, She is | staying at No. 23 Greenway Terrace, Forest Hills, as the guest of Mr. and Mrs. T. C.

I exclaimed in envy, thinking of that meagre two in the business world. “And the hours are easy too—from 9 to about 3, except twice a week on blood test days, when I am busy all atternoon,” “It sounds fine! And are there pros- pects of still further advancement?” “Lt should say $176 a month was about the maximum salary, But even that might vary—for instance a doc- tor's nurse would probably qualify as &@ technician and in his private prac- Uce she might be worth almost any- thing to him,” “So far I haven't heard anything in the nature of disadvantages—are there any?” “Well, not many, if you are as keenly interested as I am, Of course there are the disagi-eable odors and sights, if you are squeamish, and sometimes it is necessary to attend post mortema, But you forget every- thing unpleasant in the hnmense in- terest of the work—there is always something new, something to learn.” ‘Are there any hints you could pass to a girl who was thinking of aining to be a technician?” I don't think so,” she answered thoughtfully, “unless I warned her that of course she would have to dress very quietly~fussy clothes would be entirely out of place in a Jaboratory and exelte the doctor's ire: Then it would be no use her thinking of taking it up unless she were very level-headed.

And to a harem hurrying for anything, on any ooca- sion, is unknown.” I was afraid I should break down and sob in sheer envy if Miss Ellison said any more. So I brought forward what I supposed was one advantage Western women still have over their wives,” I inquired, “were in the harein where you lived? With how many other women did your friend, the Grand Vizier's daughter, have to share her hus- band?” The beautiful blue eyes shot me a look of reproach. “A Turk has only one wife, nowa- days,” Miss Ellison declared. ‘In the first place, he can't afford any more. In the second place, he doesn't want but one. ‘When four wives meant four tillers of the land,’ said a cyni- al Turkish official, ‘there was some- hing to be said for polygamy; but not when they buy their dresses at Paquin's.’ “The Turkish woman of this gen- eration will not tolerate a rival in the harem, The husband of my friend, the Grand Vizier's daughter, was devoted to her and his ambition was to obtain a diplomatic post in Surope So that he could go out with her in public and enjoy even more of her society. But he could not Have |brought another wife to the house Jof his father-in-law, where they jWere living. If he had married again my friend would have left him. “Nor is the Turkish wife the docile down-trodden creature so many of us believe her. Of course she is tact- ful--she doesn't let her husband know he is being wound around her finger. but she does it just the same. And the mother-in-law in the Turkish home occupies an honored position {She sits at the head of the table in the harem; it is beside her that the important guests are placed, On the other hand, the parents and par- ents-in-law relieve the newly mar- ried of the cares of housekeeping and the economic burden of support jing a home, Often when a daughter is married the parents stipulate she shall remain in their house, and a young man may marry as early as he desires without any haunting thoughts of his ability to support « wife, The parents like to have the young people married off before they are twenty, “There is no place for the unmar- jrled woman in the Turkish scheme of things,” added Miss Filison, frank- ly. “Dhe women in the harem think it a great pity that any normal feminine creature should not be ex ercising all her normal functions and reproducing herself.
