a frequent visitor at the country home

in “Reminiscences of a Diplomatic
Life,” “a fine young man with a

was so apparently serious that I be

and boxed his ears. His sense of hu.

been so successful In working upon my
feelings waved the situation. 1 re

his attention upon the theme as the
teacher slowly counted the moments,

we saw fn Alglers was the “House of
the Retired Wives.”
It stands directly opposite the Cath-

ace of the bey: and the House of the
tetiresl Wives Is now occupied by the
archbishop
When the bey was supreme In Al
before the intervention of France,
the paluce contained several hundred
wives And new were fre-
quently added, old ones had to be re-
tired, So as a wife became superfilu-
or undesired, for any reason, she
wus sent across the street, where she
had much freedom than in the

posed to keep to her own apartments
