One of the strangest colonies In Eng- land Is that of South Shields, where, in a part ot the town nar the river, a large number of Arabs have found a permanant Lome. The colony stretches for a consider- able distance along the docks id e. and there are several hundred alien in- hub'itants. To walk through the prin- cipal street is like vi&itlng an Eastern city. There are Arabian butcher sl-ip, lodglng-hcLves, and eating-houses, while most ot the pedestrians are Arabs. Arabic signs adorn many of the E'hops and houses, while here and there a sign has been "lior.o Into English" with comical results. Then there Is one notice to the effect t:.at Mr. Said Hassan'.} premises are a "licensed sea- men's Arab lodginghouse." Most of the Arabs came to this coun- try as seamen during the war, and I since then many of them, unable to i find berths, have found themselves ' stranded in various ports. Tiere are larg numbers of them in Glasgow, Liverpool, and Cardiff. At South Shields the colony has its own ministers, and at marriages or funerals the strange ceremonials of the East are observed. In the case of funerals, the mourners execute a sol- emn "death dance/' in memory of the departed. Betrothals and births are signalized by rejoicings, which in some cases ex- tend over several days. The colony has been considerably depleted recently, as many of the men have succeeded In getting ships and returning home. In some cases, how- ever, the Arabs have settled down with their wives and families, and have found various ways of earning a liveli- hood. MRS. A. HARBACH GAINS 24 POUNDS Dr. F. H.

I have a friend, the sweetest friend That ever you could flnd, And. though he lights the way for me, They tell me he is blind. But, oh<! I know my friend can see Much more than I or you; We are the sightless : he is blessed With visions ever new. So quiet, so serene his face, His smile so quick, so bright - He sees beyond the things we touch And needs no earthly light. His spirit bears him on, although He knows not night form day; The shining beauty of his soul Lights all the darkened way. Our fleshly eyes that have not seen The glory yet to come, Can never follow such as he When he shall reach his Home. The Joys to us go new and strange, Tbe radiance and the song, To him will be but old-time things That he has loved so long.

I took doctors' medicine which did me little or no good. Then I began taking Dr. Williams' Pink Pills and have since been free from rheumatism. I can also recommend the pills to young mothers, as in my own case I found they are unexcelled.
