Hearing on the question of closing the public schools at’ 2 o'clock on the afternoons of euch Wednesday to per- mit the pupils to receive religious in- Struction at their homes or churches was continued before the Special Committee of the Board of Education last night. Rabbi Joseph Silverman of the Temple Emanu-El, ono of the Speakers, proved a surprise to those favoring the resolution. He was scheduled to speak for the resolution, but Bourke Cockran, who followed, asked that the radbi's time be not charged to those asking for the adop- hon of the resolution, The rabbi declared that he was not an extremist and that every question could not be decided entirely in the affirmative or negative. He said no organization had taken action or asked for the passing of the resolu tion and that they are not going to | oppose it. He added: “The Board of Education has no right to diamia« the sohools for the purpose of religious instruction, and if you do you will raise a human ery from the whole elty. If the question g008 to a referendum vote it will be overwhelmingly defeate But the board may give the children a holiday after 2 P. M. Wednesdays.

OW long hast thou been blind, oh Father?” inquired the Bultan, | “Since birth, oh my son,"! The Sultan reached into his purs' for a gold coin, As he did so, th upposed blind man furtively drew @ dagger from his sleeve, But as he wan about to strike the unsuspecting Sultan, one of the @lant blacks pounced upon him with a sudden leap and threw him to the ground. The dagger fell at the Sultan's fect. He slowly picked It up. “Another of my enemies,” he re- marked, calmly. “Raise him up. 1 would question him. As the passers-by gathered quickly in a little crowd around the scene of the attack, the two blacks lifted up the assassin. His body was limp; his head fell forward. The man was dead. | The two blacks dropped the body to the ground The Sultan shook his head sadly. Ye must not strike so heavily. His neck is broken. The next one take alive, So shall we learn who wishes for our death,” said the Sultan. The black servants salaamed before their royal master, whereupon the people, | recognizing the Sultan at last in spite) of his disgutse, crowded around, many | of them prostrating themselves before him with cries to Allah. “Arise,” commanded the Sultan. “Touch not’ your foreheads in the dust | to me. To naught save Allah. Take that poor misguided body and give it burial, then to your daily work, Ye know me not.” ‘The body w carried away; the people returned to thet stalls, and Mfe in Cairo again assumed its usual morning activity, while the Prince Nur al-Din and the treacherous steward Abdullah sowered in the stall highly important business of getting d in the world.” “Hugh"—1 put down my oup of coffee and. leaned over the table, looking fixedly into my husband's eyes—"I would rather live on a cru: and have you kind to me, uncritical of me, than to live on the fat of the land and have you eternally disap- proving of me, trying, it seems, to whip me into ilne. Money 1s neces- sary, but there are other things in the world besides money. Success Is all right too, but I don't want it if I muat have it at the expense of our love." All the time I knew that I was not entirely without fault in this Instance. That realization, however, did not prevent me from ‘hating Hugh's mas- terful manner, his blunt way of say- ing things, He seemed to be laboring under the delusion that he had to take @ bludgeon and knock meon the head with it, cave-man fashion, | whenever I did anything he did not like, During all my childhood and my girlhood never had [ heard father! ‘ay one hareh word to my mother. If he was not always making love to her and paying her compliments, an ‘efore my marriage 1 believed every | model husband must do until the end | of time, he never had been critical of | her, In fact, everything she did was just right In his eyes, “That's very One talk,” said Hugh, rising from the table, “but you don't moan one word of it. Anyway, I have myself to conalder in this suc- cess business, and s0 long as we are man and wife you will conform to such rules and conditions as will enable me to reach the goal I have set. Without further comment, Hugh walked into the tiving-reem, picked np his hat and passed ont of the und eupposediy my partner ia thel | Zark for fear they would be seen and rec- ognized. The Sultan was just about to move on when through the gates of Cairo came the noise of singing and‘of music.

Next came a clown, in fantastic b, singing and ancing; then a keler throwing alls into the aj wpidly and catching them as. they fell; next a beautiful young girl with golden hair and modest attire; and then an old woman leading a donkey, on the back of which was packed a lot of pots and pans and other kitchen utensils, with much baggage beside CHAPTER If, the living room of the poor house rented by All Shar for their visit to Cairo, in a mean street of the town. Zummurud hummed again the love song she had sung to the Sultan, while Zarka, the old woman, dyed some cloth in a bowl of scarlet dye. Old Zirka paused in her work‘and turned to the young girl as she sat before the fire, N | stirring a pot of broth. “Thou art ever singing, oh little rosebud,” said Zarka, curiously. “Art thou in love?” “Nay, I know not what love Canst thou not tell me? answered the young girl, innocently “Love dors not gro my rosebud Love is like a magician’s palm tree which springs up full grown in a day, nay, ina minute, and then begins to fade and die," Tne girl shook her head sadly “Nay, I'll not believe thee, Zarka ove lasts forever.” ‘There be only one love that lasts forever, the love of a mother for her child, I never had a child,” added Zarka, longingly.
