"In most of the Islands of the West In dies the better class of English and .French people seem ever desirous of re turning to their native lands, but such does not seem to be, the case In Martin ique, where the 'French have their thea ters and country homes, and enjoy life to the limit the'yar Found.

Though the visit of the Per sian monarch Inconveniences the authori ties not a little, owing to the measurse necessary to Insure his personal safety, and Is likewise rather expensive, as it is found necessary to refurnish and redec orate the rooma of the royal palace oc cupied by the Shah and his suite after they have departed, the stay of the royal Visitor Is not entirely without Its re deeming features. One of the foremost industries of Antwerp la diamond cut ting, and the manufacture of jewelry, and aa the Shah Is expected to make big purchases in this line, the mercnanta do not share the dread with which the offi cials regard his approaching visit. As purchasers there is a marked differ ence between the. present Shah and his father, Nasr-Ed-D&en. The last-named was an excellent hand at making a bar gain, but not too scrupulous In conclud ing it. He bought right and left, and rarely asked for the bill, and, there are some merchants today In Antwerp who are still waiting for a settlement for bills contracted by the late Shah on the oc casleb of his visit here 14. years ago. His son, on the other hand, is regarded as an Ideal client. He la easily pleased, never dickers and rarefy asks the price of anything.
