the American Magazine.
Alexander von Humboldt, noted
traveler and student of nature, de
clared Constantinople was one of the
throe most beautiful cities In the
world, Naples and Salzburg being the
other two. Lord Byron also extolled
Constantinople's position ns being In
comparable to any he had ever seen.
The historical Interest that abounds
la Constantinople even surjmsses, for
many, that of Its henuty. The city’s
history extends back nearly 3,000
years. Since the corn-laden gulleys
from the Black sea glided through
the HejJ^spout In the days o f Darius
and Alexander, and the Phoenlchins
moved In from the Marmora sea.
down to the present time, when gi
gantic battleships swing at their moor
ings off Seraglio point, Constantinople
has been an object of desire for am
bitious m ilitary leaders and land-seek
ing nations.

First Animal Protection
The first step In the enactment of
humane legislation was taken In 1822.
fp e n a bill providing punishment for
the 111 treatm ent o f cattle was Intro
duced into the British parliament by
Richard M artin, an Irish nobleman,
later nicknamed by King George IV
“Hum anity M artin .” To Richard M a r
tin belongs the credit for the first
conviction under the law for the pro
tection of animals. The misused ani
mal was dragged Into court to show
evidence of Its master’s cruelty, and
the driver was found guilty.
Two
years later, M artin formed a society
for the enforcement of Ills anti-cruelty
a c t The Society for the Prevention
of Cruglty to Animals was thereupon
organized. From this society orig
inated the American Society for the
Prevention o f Cruelty to Animals,
founded la Now York In 1SO0 by Henry
Bergh.

The name “Day of the Bastille" la
given I d French history to the 14th of
July, 1790, because on that day the
mob. assisted by the Gardes Fran

stroyed the prison fortress of the Bas

anniversary of this event was called
'X * Fete de la Federation.” The Day
of the Bastille Is also known as the
"D ay of July,” and Is celebrated by
the French as a patriotic holiday,
much as the Americans celebrate the
tggnlng o f the Declaration of Inde
pendence on the Fourth of July.

those who had fallen In the Routh

In these days of hustle nnd bustle,
hyper-activity
and constant

there la one thing that every one can
do to neutralise to some extent the
restlessness that has Invaded onr life.
That one thing Is to surround oneself
with beautiful and restful pictures.
Pictures take the mind off the wor
risome, petty details that are so Ir
ritating to the nervous system. A
good-natured Jolly Cavalier to look
down on us onderstamllngly from the
wall, or a lovely Madonna to fill us

Genius can only breathe freely In an

Persona of

people, less capable, consequently, of
fitting themselves, without hurtful
compression, Into any of the small
number of molds society provides In
order to save Its members the trouble
of forming tlielr own character.
If,
from timidity, they consent to be
forced Into one of these molds, society
will be little the better for their gen
ius. I f they are of strong character
and break their fetters, they become a
mark for the society which has not
succeeded in reducing them tn com-
