He will have little patience with carping critics who point to the beautiful screens, of floriated marble tracery, and say: "Nuns should not wear collars of point lace." From the Moti Mesjid, we visit the Shish Mahal, or mirrored bath-rooms.

"My father's uncle," said Imam Din, slowly, with importance, "was Ressaldar of the Longcoat Horse; and the Empress called him to Belait in the year that she had accomplished fifty years of rule. "He said also that there was a Shish Mahal half a glass palace half a koss in length and that the rail-gbarri ran under the roads, and that there are boats bigger than a village. He is a great talker."

Lord Yalding selected me out of eleven applicants for the post of housekeeper here. I've not the slightest doubt the child was changed at birth and her rich relatives have claimed her." "But aren't you going to do anything tell the police, or" "Shish!" said Mabel. "I won't shish," said Jimmy. "Your Mabel's invisible that's all it is. She's just beside me now."

You know the row it makes since it was broken, and I heard some one say, 'Shish! what's that? and then, 'Sounds like an infernal machine' don't go shoving me, Dora, it was him said it, not me and then, 'If I was the inspector I'd dump it down in the river, so I would. Any way, let's shift it. But the other said, 'Let well alone, so I wasn't dumped any more.

"When you get through listening to that man he talks like a bar of soap tell me what there is on this bill of fare that's safe to eat," snorted Theresa.

At Woolwich discoursed with him and Mr.

'It's nothing naughty, is it, Daisy asked, 'like the last time you had that was rousingly good? Alice said 'Shish', and Oswald pretended not to hear. 'A precious treasure, he said, 'has inadvertently been laid low in the moat by one of us. 'The rotten thing tumbled in by itself, Dicky said. Oswald waved his hand and said, 'Anyhow, it's there.
