The Tollowing method of gaining as- surance 18 told in the American Maga- gine.

Some Observations on the Side and a ,. Dogmatic Conclusion. - Fou are probably a woman, Few | men would pause to read an article headed "The Ideal Husbund." Man knows his fellow. men too well. Of course it is true that nearly every married woman has at sowe time in her life claimed to have found the one ideal husband, but not for long. He is not a stale article; he is only a flee Shortly after a young married wom- an declares hers to be the ideal hus- band he exhibits a tendency to crim. ble his crackers in his soup or to plaé& a slice of bread in his empty dinner plate and submerge it in gravy. These things "are not done." 'While a man is still engaged--held under option, as it were, but not defi- nitely contracted for--bhe is for a short while considered ideal. However, he just begins to enjoy his perfection when it is discovered by his general manager elect that he rests his kuife and fork" half on the tablecloth and half on his plate, while they should be draped artistically across his plate midway between meat and potatoes. To save time, probably he also cuts his meat into small pieces before start- ing to eat it. He has good reasons for doing as he does, but they do not excuse him. His sort of conduct and perfection simply do not walk hand in hand. No young couple should 'be engaged long enough for either one té discover the other's shortcomings. So long as a4 man and a gir! are so mutually mes- -merized that the eyes of one never leave the eyes of the other he is per fect, but fhe moment he allows her glances td stray below his Adam's ap- ple, the moment he loses control, he loses also perfection. She realizes that his knowledge of esthetics was glean: ed from an abridged edition; that his tie is not in vogue, that his collar is too loose and too low and therefore too comfortable. Ah me! 1 have strayed from my subject--the ideal husband. Let me return to it and proceed. There is no such thing. ANCIENT BAGDAD. Bits About the Enchanted City of the "Arabian Nights." Immortalized by Haroun-al-Raschid, in the story of the "Arabian Nights," Bagdad, which has a population of about 150,000, was built on the ruins | of an anclent Babylonian city dating | back to 2000 B. OC. Records have been found on ancient. bricks establishing its early date. Ever since the days of Haroun-al- Raschid the Jews have been the lead- ing figures in the commercial world of Bagdad. There are 50,000 of them, | with about 8,000 Chaldean (or hereti- | cal) Christians. The remainder of the population is made up of Persians, Turks, Armenians, Arabs and Kurds. | Sindbad the Sailor was born at Bag- dad, and all his marvelous adventures begin by his going down the Tigris to Bussorah (the modern Busra). The city stands on both sides of the | Tigris, the two parts heing connected | by the famous bridge of boats, 220 yards long. A brick wall, five miles In circumference and forty feet high, sur- rounds Bagdad. The city contains upward of 100 mosques, though barely twenty of them are in use. The houses generally are. old, dirty and ugly outside, but the vaulted ceilings, rich moldings, inlaid mirrors and massive gildings bring back to the recollection of the traveler "the golden prime of the good Haroun- | al-Raschid." The streets are narrow, crooked, un: paved and dirty, full of ruts and strewed with garbage, which, however, is for the most part removed by dogs, the public scavengers in the east. ---------------- An Exhilarating Bath, "Many doctors are now discarding | the stronger alcohol in ordering baths," | says the Farm and Fireside, "and are | prescribing the more agreeable bay { rum, which Is made In Japan from the | distillation of rum and the leaves of | the. bayberry tree.
