Treatment of Drunkards in Turkey.—For a really original method of dealing with "drunk and incapables" we must turn to Turkey. There the punishment fp,r the first offence is the bastinado; the second and third offences are followed by chastisement; but after thethird offence the offender becomes " privileged," and is entitled to be carefully taken home by a policeman. Youngleyj "Yes, sir, we Jove eaph, other, and loye matches always turn out happily. Do you know of a single instance where they have not done so?" Olding; " No, not of a single instanoe, but I know of a good many married ones."
