Founded on Harold M'Grath's book, THE , THE CARPET FROM BAGDAD. j' A Romance of tho Ancient City of Bagdad, famed in song and story, of SOOTHSAYERS, of CRYSTAL GAZERS, and of how a precious prayer-rug was boldly snatched from the innermost shrine of a sacred mosquo, passed from hand _to hand, and of how, in its travels, the rug imperilled tho lives of two men and a beautiful young woman. An exciting romanco of plot and counter-plot; of the fatalism of the Far East; of CARAVANS, and of an OASIS IN THE DESERT. There is a SAHARA SAND STORM; a conspiracy on the part of an international band of crooks; and it • remained for Fortune, the innocent girl, to finally solve tho intrigue. Over all there is the reminiscent touch of the mosque's golden domes; the glittering STARS OF THE ; TEMPLES; the land of Allah in ALL ITS ORIENTAL _ SPLENDOUR, and MAHOx MED, guardian of tho sacred carpet, who is has grimly followed the emblem of his faith ' 9 through storm and stress, and at th© ending d is resigned to defeat. Prostrating himself towards Mecca, he mutters the incantation of his caste: " WHAT IS TO 1 BE, WILL a BE!" Usual Supports.
