THE WHEELS OF HEALTH.

There is no better exercise for a young woman in thoroughly good health than bicycling. On the contrary, if she suffers from weakness or disease of the distingtly feminine organs, if she rides, at all, such exercise should be very sparingly indulged jn. Women are peculiarly constituted and their general health is peculiarly dependent upon the health of the specially feminine organism.

It is the health of these delicate and im-

nt parts that “‘mnakes the wheels of general health goround.’’ Their strength gud vigor are as Important toa woman asa mainspring to a watch, or a sprocket and chain to a bicycle. Dr. Pierce’s Favorite Prescription is the best of all medicines for delicate women. It makes them strong where they most need strength. Taken daring the ‘‘interesting interval,” it ban- jishes the usual squeamishness and makes baby’s admission to the world easy and al- most painless. It fits a woman for in-door work and out-door sports. Honest druggists don’t advise substitutes

e centre of the town, and who would was apparently free to enter. [Im va- riety and richness they surpassed any-

more famous in Arabian song and story than any of these—the balm tree.

Vike so much that is good and famous,

it is not beautiful—in fact, it is ugly and scragey, and were the eve the

sole judge, contemptible, but those who know its virtues think little of its mean appearance.

In striking contrast to the dark olive foliage were the blazing tropical flow- ers, many of them of inexpressible glory and brilliancy. But what touched me beyond anything else were some ciusters of magnificent roses, that flung their fragrance on the air, un- mindful of the general noisomeness— at times, indeed, making one forget it. The sight of that common English flower, so familiar and so lovely, stir- red the emotions as not all the splen- dours of the Orient could stir them. It was like the greeting of an old friend in a strange land.

In some of the gardens people were drawing water from deep wetls with leathern buckets, others scooping it up from slender stone-rimmed water- courses. At sight of such plenty I be- gan to get hungry and thirsty again, and so tempting was the fruit that presently I found myself meditating a

robbery. But at every gate I decided to wait till I reached the next, and in this way, a thief at heart, an honest man from fear, I went along, feasting my eyes, but grievously vexing the stomach, which protested ever more and more vigorously. It is an ill ex- perience to be famishing among plenty.

On turning one of the many street corners, full of the thought which most engages a hungry man, I entered a square in which was assembled 4 great crowd. A glance made it plain that they were holiday-makers. In the midst was a man wearing over the usual shirt a gay, parti-coloured mantel. and a scarlet vest, with wide sleeves like a hishop’s gown. His head was fantastically enfolded in a flaming handkerchief, in the volumin- ous twists of which there were stuck three bobbing peacock feathers. He

wild grimaces, the people responding to his sallies of wit and distortions of counterence with resounding bursts of merrimcuht.

“A professional story-teller,” I said to myself, and it proved I was right.

The fellow seemed master of his bus- iness, for all we! eager and excited, save only the gaunt, sorrowful camel, which was sunk in a gloom no mirtl could brighten. Per! s, like Harle- quin, it was too ir with jests ta be much cheered by them. I had not watched the performance more than a minute when the noticed me.

He capped his insults and insolences by inviting his audience to step forward and examine me for themselves.

The next minute the had formed a ring about me, taking care, however, to keev some distance off, as if I

might be an animal of uncertain tem- per. But a perky youth, in rich cloak and many coloured sashes, eager to set an example in temerity and make sport for his fellows, ran up and prob- ed me in the ribs with his riring-stick. It was wonderful how the old fiery

spirit of retaliation came back on me. Quicker than thought I whipped out my pistol and covered the fellow’s

head. He ducked, dodged and disap- peared like magic. Disappointed at his celerity in getting out of sight, I took aim at the clown. He, too, had an antipathy to such target practice, and like a flash was off his camel and hiding among the crowd. A thrilling pause followed as the people, falien sient. stared in wouder at me, then

Satisfied with having frightened my molesters, and anxious to prove my

pacific intentions toward the company in general, I retur l the pistol to my belt. Seeing this, the chonfallen story- teller sneaked back for his beast, tak- ing care as he led it off to keep its body between him and me. ‘The crowd hesitated moment, as if un- certain which performer to patronize; then went trooping after the clown in evident expectation of er diver- sion else:vhere.

I had not gone a hundred yards when I felt a gentle touch on thi and leoking round found at my, in el- derly Arab of venerable and benignant aspect. As my eyes met his he bowed with a cordial gravity, out his open hand. Glad to find any one so friencly, I also bowed and laid my open palm in his, waiiing for him to speak.

‘I was in the midst of the congre- gation when the jestet ri and made the people la ea n, in a kindly tone. “I saw ‘thee pull

When the jester slunk away and the people followed, I hastened after thee to speak with thee, and if thou be in need of aught I possess, know of a surety it is thine. If thou art a hungered, thou shalt eat; if thou art thirsty, thou shalt drink; if thou art weary, thou shalt wash thy feet and rest. Said Achmet hath himself been a wander- er, and knoweth the distress of a stranger in a strange land.”

Greatly surprised, though thrilling

with joy and gratitude, I replied: “I am indeed a stranger in-a strange land, cast on the shore like driftwood, to be tessed and made the sport of fate. But thy kindness puts new spirit tin me.”

“ Art thou hungry ?’’ he asked, look- & .gme in the face.

“ Hungry, thirsty, and spent,” I an- ewered.
