The most striking things about a Bermudian house are its color and ma- terial. White-. does not begin to ex- press the vivid, radiant, penetrating pu- rity of its smooth, unbroken surfaces. In the intense sunlight the dazzling , roofs give forth i a halo of reflected light where the roof line instead of staudiug gut sharply against the sky blends im- perceptibly with it. Bermudian houses are built today, as they were centuries ago, of coral blocks literally sawed out of the hill- sides. A Bermudian quarry is a queer Institution. For convenience it is usu- ally located on the side1st a hill where only a thin layer of soil covers the coral. The blocks are sawed out by uegroes with long, coarse toothed hand- saws and cut -hi uniform sizes measur- ing about two feet long, one foot wide and six inches thick. The roofs are covered with overlapping slabs an inch thick. , When taken from the quarry these coral blocks and slabs are very soft, but Ver being piled up for a month or so ana exposed to ,the air they be- come hard and firm. Even then, how- ever, the coral is porous, so that all Bermudian houses are covered with a thick coat of whitewash or lime a quer-- ter of an inch deep. This hides all cracks and joints and gives the cur - face a beautiful, smooth finish. To keep the houses in good condition a at of whitewash is applied each year. What little wood is used for floors. verandas, interior trim and shutters I can be obtained from the cedar trees that grow on the same hills where the stone is quarried. With material so handy and ready for use with so little work it does not cost much to build in Bermuda. In some of the older houiree and churches the cedar beams are lock- ed into the masonry 'exactly as a ship- builder would do it. Big chimneys, sloping roofs to catch the rainwater, stone porches and windows filled with green shutters that, push outward are features common in many Bermudian houses.—Country Life In America.

They Take a New Name It Every Town Upon Their Banks. in Persia a river is generally called by the name of the town on its banks, and therefore changes its name at each town it reaches. \This writes Colonel Stewart in 'Through Persia In Dis- guise,\ \makes it very difficult to learn the right names of the rivers. \My groom was an Armenian and very much more intelligent than ordi- nary Persians. since he had been edu- cated at a mission school at Ispahan. One day he was swimming about in some water we passed, and I said to him, 'No doubt you learned to swim in the Zayendeh Rud'—the river that flows by Ispahan. 'No, sir,' be replied, did not learn to swim in the Zayen- deb Rud, but in the Ispahan river.' He actually did not know that the large river passing his native town was called the Zayeadeh Rud, or, in otbet words, •that the Ispahan river and, the Zayendeh Rud were one and the same. \Another instance of this confusion Is shown by what people call the Abrishini river. The name of the river is the Kal Mura, but the majority of Persians and also Europeans cross it on the main post road between Meshed and Teheran by a bridge that was built by a silk merchant and that is ealled •Pul-Abrishini,' or the silken bridge: so they call the river the •Abrislitur or the silken river, which Is certainly not its name. The river, which flows by Khusf, although at this point t'ery slightly brackish, lower down becomes very salt indeed and finally Is lost in the desert. \Karez. or underground canals, car- ry the water of this river in every di- rection over the country. I think the wonderful patience shown by the Per - sinus In the labor of excavating these underground channels for water is sur- prising Every drop of water has to be bored for and tunneled through miles and miles of ground before the precious liquid reaches the crop for which It is Intended.\ Arabia's orange droves.

A Real Play By MARGARET BARR During the winter of 1911-12 I visit - Led the isthmus of Panama to see the big ditch. Having satisfied tuy curiusi- ity by going over it from one end to the other, I boarded the steamer at Colon for my return. I was standing on deck, leaning on the rail, looking down at the passengers hurrYing about on the wharf or thronging up the gang- way, where a party of tourists, consist- ing principally of young girls, came trooping along together, carrying the usual hand baggage and evidently in- tending to sail for home. That they were Americans was plain from their „sPeeFh. A young girl of this party and a young man stopped on the dock di- rectly below where I was standing and, unmindful of my presence, engaged in a hurried conversation. She --.You are coming with us, are you not? He—Impessible. How can I leave here with work unfinished, without leave? She—There are other engineers, are there not, who can do such work? Do you consider yourself the only capable one in the canal zone? -, He—Would you have me do all this for you? She—Is it as much as what you said you would do when we stood on ,the side of the canal—that you would jump down a hundred feet for my glove if I would throw it over? He—That was gallantry. This is the real thing. She—The real thing is tke test. At this moment I caught sight of a dark face above a pile of fruit boxes on the dock watching thn_couple—the face of a girl with a devil in her eyes. She was doubtless of mixed Spanish and Aztec blood, with all the virulence this mixture of races contains. The young engineer and the girl, who were evidently the objects of her interest. were unaware of her presence. He stood irresolute. Since I was looking down from above I could not see much of their faces, but I believed her eyes were holding him in thrall. My posi- tion, akin to that of eavesdropper, was hardly an excusable one, and I was about to turn away when I caught sight of the dusky creature. who was even more of an eavesdropper than I was myself, Indeed, in her fierce looks I saw danger for the lovers. I remained, thinking it possible that I might need to warn them of that dan- ger. Besides, in this scene enacted on: Life's real stage I saw a play—a play that might readily be turned into a tragedy. I saw the young engineer at his daily work on the canal. the half breed girl viewing him as some su- perior creature doing what to her was miraculous. He smiles at her, thought- lessly chats with her, possibly after working bourn meets her. Quite like : ly he is innocent of any wrong inten- tion. It does not require a courtship under such circumstances to set a girl wild about a young man so far above her. Then come the partyof Americans to visit the canal. Possibly the young engineer is directed by his superior to show them, the section on which he is engaged, to explain to them the prec eases involved. They may be persons, or some among them may be persons. having influmite at Washington. The hearts of this girl of the party and I this young man, who are thrown to getber by fate on the great waterway forming to girdle the world, spring for each other like the positive and negative poles of a magnet. Or it may be , she has a passion for bringing ; man to her feet, like the huntsman - for sport. Let us hope the first sup position is correct She draws him with her to Colon—to see her depart. Once there, she wishes to try her power over \ him still fur- ther. It may be that she has wealth and that his work aw-engineer on the canal Is less to her than her desire to have him with her. Out this Is all sup- position. The only feature evident Is that she is, trying to make him gratify her wish. In some way the dark girl—the - heavy woman\ of the play, as the- atrical persons would call her—has got wind of his infatuation. She follows at a distance. What for? Who knows? Does she know herself? Perhaps not. Neverthelesi I can see danger to her fair rival in that fierce black eye the dialogue below we continued, \Are you going?\ she asked. There was no reply. I knew she teak drawing him with her eyes, and I .be- lieved she would win. \Once more, are you going?\ sae asked again. \Yes. I'll go with you if you take\— I heard no more for they passed out of bearing toward the gangway. They were the last passengers to come aboard. The gangway was hauled in. and the engine was slowly started. The girl in whom I was Interested came up and stood on deck near OM She was waving td some one' on the pier. I saw the dark girl run to the edge of the dock and draw a knife from her bosom. Taking a deliberate aim at her rival, she threw it Before the knife bad time to reach the girl on deck I caught her by the arm and whirled her away. The knife passed within a few feet of her breast. She looked at me, indignant She did not know that I had probably` saved her life—bad certainly saved her from a wend. I didiaot enlighten her. \Pardon me.\ I said: \I made a m. take\ But I told the engineer the true stet*. -t- Se ember 4th 1913. OOD telephone service depends largely upon mutual courtesy. The tele- phone is more useful to those who talk as if face to face, for civility removes difficulties and facilitates the promlitest possible connections. As in ether intercourse it often happens that two br more people wish to talk with the same person at the same time. Without courtesy confusion is inevitablt, and the confusion is greater when the people cannot see each Other. The operators mu8ti2e patient and polite under all circumstances, bui they will do better work if they meet patience an politeness on the part of telephone users. The Bell Telephone Service enters intimately into die social and business life of each individual. The best results crime through the practice of mutual courtesy.
