TO WEAR VEIL AGAIN
$
Liberty of Moslem Women of
Short Duration.
Halt la Called on Movement Started
by Young Turks Order for Using
Thicker Face Coverings lo
Enforced.
Constantinople. The moveraont for
the emancipation of Turkish women,
which under the regime of the Young
Turks gained considerable momen
tum, has now received a serious set
back. Encouraged by the Young Turks,
women permitted themselves greater
liberty of movement and in a short
tlmo it was no uncommon thing to
see husbands and wives riding in tho
same carriage A woman's club with
n membership from tho best Moslem
families was formed and courses of
lectures and literary evenings were
given under Its auspices. Education
for girls received attention and a
school for girls under the patronage
of tho president of the chamber was
founded, whllo funds were provided
for training teachers.
The problem of the veil was in
fluenced by the prevailing liberal ten
dencies and In a short time, al
though no one ventured to discard It
entirely, it was so attenuated in many
cases as to be little better than an
apology for a veil. Many women
while In the European quarter of the
city wore the veil flung back over
their heads.
These reforms were not rocelved
with good, grace- by tho more con
servative Turks, who not only regard
their womon as without souls, but
object to any exhibition whatever of
their bodies.
This profound distrust- soon reaoted
on the government nnd tho . Young
Turks. The reformers found their
tolerant attitude townrd their womon
folks' aspirations was strengthening
the opposition and especially lending
point to the argument that they were
not true believers. Nothing did more
to add to tho prestige of the conserva
tive Turks than tho charge that the
Young Turks wero no longer good
Moslems.
KISSLESS MARRIAGE UPHELD
New York Court Rules Pair Must Stay
United, Even Without
Osculation.
New York. Doclarlng that his wlfo
would not kiss him, Samuel Markowltz
nsked tho supremo court In Brooklyn
to annul his marriage to Mildred Mar
kowltz. Mr. Markowitz, who is noted among
his frlendB for his sartorial perfection,
declared that whenever he attempted
to embrace his wlfo she repulsed him
coldly and got beyond his roach. Mr.
Markowltz admitted that except in tho
matter of kissing him, Mrs. Markowitz
was a model wife, and that It was with
sorrow he was forced to bring pro
ceodlugs for annulment of tho mar
riage JuBtico Marean, before whom tho
motion was tried, characterized as ab
surd the grounds upon which Mr. Mar
kowltz sought freedom from his wlfo,
nnd denied the motion.
MrB. Markowltz, In a counter action
boforo Justlco Dlackmar, prayed that
alimony and counsel fco bo granted
her. Through her counsel sho stated
that sho waa married when her hus
band was 18 years old, and that prior
to hor meeting with him ho had con
tracted other alliances, of which sho
was ignorant at that time.
Mrs. Markowitz made no effort to
deny her coldness to hor husband, and
declared that tho marriago was per
formed at tho Instance of her mother,
to whom oho said ho had gone, threat
ening to commit suicide if ho could
not marry tho daughter. The court
denied the motion.

To vlndicato their conformity with
the teachings of the prophet It was
necessary for the reformers to be
come reactionaries as far as tho
womeit wero concerned, so orders were
Issued that no Turkish woman wns to
appear In public wearing a thin veil;
she must not loiter In front of Euro
pean shops; nnd she must not enter
such places except under special cir
cumstances. Tho women were warned, In short,
to make themselves as inconspicuous
as possible in public, on pain of arrest
and punishment. Under this new rule
several Moslem women of ovil repu
tation have been arrested and exiled.
In consequence of these harsh reg
ulations the women nro going more
heavily veiled than even under the
old regime, but as some compensa
tion lately they have begun to cupy
European dress in other parts of their
attire, even their skirts In many cases
being modeled on tho hobble pattern.
CRIES OF BABIES MUSICAL
Discovery of a London Curate Who

Infants.
London. Music for Psalm 1H7, "Uy
tho Waters of Babylon Wo Sat," was
inspired entirely, says tho composer,
"from hearing babies cry at baptismal
sorvices."
Tho composer Is the Hev. Noel Ho-navla-Ilunt,
who has been for six
years tho senior curate of St. Mat
thew's Church, Willesden, a London
suburb. Duilng hiB bIx years at St.
Matthew's the senior curato has chris
tened many Willesden babies, and con
trary to tho generality of mankind he
found raUBlc In their wails.
"I was so impressed," ha says, "with
the musical qualities of tho cries that
I considered they ought to be recorded
in some way. I also wished to. wrlto
a chant which was original.
"Now I claim that this composition
Is original and at the same tlmo mu
sical and not grotesque. It represents
moro or less tho meaning of the words
to which It is Bet, 'By the Wators of
Babylon We Sat Down and Wept:
When We Remembered Thee, O Sion.'

Spiritual Gifts and
How to Find
Them
By Rev. H. W. Pope.
Superintendent of Mtg of Moody Bible Institute,
Chicles
In tho twelfth
chnptor of First
Corinthians, and
usually in Taul'a
writings, tho
church ia repre
sented as tho
body of which
Christ Is tho
head, As the head
directs tho body,
nnd through It
gives expression
to its will, so
Christ pvnntR.qM
W 4- h,a wln through
KMfeJ afA, tho church, which
la his body.
Every believer at conversion la
united to tho body of Christ, nnd
thereby becomes a member. Each
member hnB some function to per
form, just as tho hand or eye has in
tho physical body. "To ovory man his
work."
As each member has somo function
to perform, so alBO ho has somo gift,
for tho great head of the church does
not expect tho members to Bervo
without a capacity for service "Tho
manifestation of tho spirit la given
to every man." (I Cor. 12:7).
Every believer Is bound to bellevo
that ho has somo spiritual gifts, oven
if ho has not discovered it, and even
If other pcoplo think and say that ho
has none. God says ho has, and that
settles It, and the humblest believer
will And, If ho 1b willing to wait, and
work, and pray, that God's promlso la
true.
When Dwlght L. Moody was exam
ined for church membership ono of
the deacons went homo and told his
family, that of all tho pcoplo whom
ho had over examined, young Moody
waa about tho most unpromising.
Events proved that God's promises are
moro rellablo than a deacon's Judg
ment. Tho spiritual gifts which bellovers
rocclvo nro not of their own selec
tion, but aro such as God chooses to
confer upon them. "Dividing to ev
ery ninn severally as ho will." "God
hath Bet tho members every ono of
them In tho body as It hath pleased
him." (1 Cor. 12:11, 18).
Spiritual gifts aro not conferred on
us for our own benefit, but "for tho
perfecting of the BaintB, for tho work
of tho ministry, for the edifying of tho
body of Christ" (Eph. 4:12). Too oft
en this Is forgotten, and many a fee
bio church has unemployed talent
enough in its membership to mako It
a mighty spiritual power, if only its
members would exercise their gifts.
1. Many Christians question serious
ly whether they have any spiritual
gift, and tho devil encourages thorn
in this belief. So long as ho can keep
them inactive in the master's servico,
they give him llttlo trouble. As a
rulo this notion arises from tho fact
that they have novcr nttempted any
kind of Christian work. They havo
never tried earnestly to moot any
spiritual need, and lionco they do not
know what they can do. A duck
would never know that it could swim
if It did not attempt it.
Gifts Are Different.
It is a great mistake to suppose that
all spiritual gifts nro necessarily gifts
of speech. By no moans. What a
misfortune It would bo if tho body of
ChrUt wero nil mouth! Lot It novcr
bo forgotten that tho oyo and tho ear,
the hand and tho foot are Just as Im
portant ns tho mouth. Romans
12:G-1C Bhows what a groat varioty of
gifts the spirit confers on tho mem
bers of tho body. Among thorn is
cheerfulness, hatred of evil, pallonco
in suffering, prayerfulncss, and hospi
tality. Tho fact Is Oliat many spirit
ual gifts are not recognized as euch.
About two years ago I was present
at a football game between Yale nnd
Princeton. On the grand stand wero
nearly twenty thousand pcoplo Di
rectly back of me sat a young lady
accompanied by n gentleman. Sho
was one of those healthy, happy girls
that carry sunshlno with them wher
ever they go. Whenever n good play
was made, sho gave vent to her en
thusiasm in tho heartiest manner.
Finally, a Yale man caught the ball
and, making a fine end play, ho ran
down the field in triumph. Springing
to her feet, she throw up her hat, coat,
and everything about her that was
loose, and shouted, "Oh, I am so glad
I was born."
The young man seemed equally
glad, and I nm frank to confess that
I shared his sentiments! Suoh splen
did enthusiasm! What would It ho
worth to the chesg of Christ? How
it would Inspire n. church, or put new
llfo into a dead prayer meeting, or
mako even drudgery scorn delightful.
You may not havo the gift of en
thusiasm, but perhaps you have cour
ago to nttempt hard things, or a pn
tlence that never tires, or a cheerful
ness thnt is contagious, or tho faculty
of making othcis see things as you do,
or the gift of appreciating other peo
ple's good qualities, which is ono of
tho finest of nil. You certainly havo
somo gift, for God says so.
II. HoV can one asceitain what lila
gifts are? By going to work for
Christ. Ab a rulo-no ono knows what
gifts he possesses until ho begins to
use them.
