Tho islands nre about 13 niikrs south cast of Constantinople, with which they are connected by a ferry that makes trips every two hours', the trip con suming about an hour and a half. The inhabitants are .never in a hurry. Prinkipo, the chief island "of the group, is ten milt-3 in eimnnfcrneeo and contains a town of the same name. Most of tho inhabitants are Greeks, Travelers declare that the- most beau tiful women in. the world live the sim ple life of these islands. The inhabitants have home rule which means practically no rule nt all. There is no- government worthy of no tice and no taxes are paid except when the people tax theniselvs, which is sel dom, as tho wealthy foreign residents provide all tho improvements needed. Few of the residents ever lock their i doors, whether they nre at home or not ! and tho only work there is for the! heavily armed and gaily decorated po-' iicenien is koopmg tho goats from eat ing tho trees. Nobody does much work except the monks in tho, numerous mon asteries. " , . SAMAEINDA DUE S1ST mak e the Home eamiYu " STAYTONNEWS.
