Not many years ago few were the foreigners who crossed their borders and lived toi tell the tale. In recent years, however, many visitors have give’n. in print first-hand descrip tions of the kingdom that reposes among the mountains northwest of India. In Asia, where headgear is a sign of rank or race, the Afghan has re fused to ‘‘go high hat.” To the Durani leaders and Shinwari tribesmen, the threat of parliamentary procedure was bad enough, for Afghan- istan was more a mountain-sandwiched mass of aggressively independent tribes than r united nation. But edicts prescribing shorn beards, frock coats, and top hats were last straws on their tolerance of hasty centralization. They, felt that a high-speed dawn from the west was a false dawn. And so they proved it. Amanullah—the Peace of God—fled After six years the turban remains, a sign that, even in Asia, haste makes waste. To induce European thoughts i Turkish heads, Mustapha Kemal Pasha tucked the Latin alphabet in below European hats. Amanullah hoped to accomplish even more radical changes. But the patient Afghan mountaineer, a swaggering “he-man” If there ever was one, persisted in sticking to his broad turban or dressy astrakhan cap. And thereby hangs a tale. Afghanistan was long isolatpd by po- poiitieal jealousy as Mecca and Lhasa are by prayer niche and prayer wheel. The Afghans cherished isolation as had their predecessors, the Parthians, who “held it as a maxim to accord no passage over their country to any stranger.” In 1917 when a traveler rode south ward from Merv, Kushka was the end of a blind alley. In 1921 when he went northwestward through the Khyber pass and faced that famous sign read ing: “It Is Absolutely Forbidden to Cross This Border into Afghan Terri tory,” there was a Gurkha guard to emphasize the “absolutely.” Couldn't Hustle the East. By 1917 not only was Afghanistan open to visitors but current events speeded up. Before the end of ,that medieval year King Amanullah and Queen Souriya, monogamist rulers of a polygamous land, had boarded their first steamship and were at the thresh old of western culture, its permanent values then reinforced by industrial activity and bull markets. The next six months were amazing. The vacationing rulers rode from tri umph to triumph, enjoying such Euro pean thrills as few Europeans know because westerners have had decades to become accustomed to what the Afghan rulers personally encountered during a few weeks of western hos pitality. Rome, Monte Carlo, Paris, Belgium, Switzerland. Berlin, Leipzig, London. Warsaw, Moscow, Ankara, Istanbul, Te heran—theirs was no commonplace trip. Nations hoping for commercial or political advantage outdid one an other in honoring these rulers of a newly opened buffer state between the native republics of Soviet Turkestan and that “No-man’s Land,” bristling with manhood, along which runs the long, strategic land frontier of the British empire. Across the northwest frontier, India’s Chinese wall, many a conqueror en tered Hindustan, treasure house of gold and jewels. The presence of pov erty-stricken and nomadic tribesmen so close to ill-guarded riches often proved disastrous to India. It is no wonder that the British ruler invited the Afghan king to be the first royal visitor ever to fly over London, and staged a mock battle for his benefit. A few months later this honored guest of modern Europe was driven from his palace in Kabul. Kipling wrote the epitaph of such. Amanullah, like other enthusiasts, “tried to hustle the East.” Of course, it is fantastic to suggest that the Afghans overthrew their ener getic king simply over a question of dress; because village girls were forced to attend school without the consent of their parents; or even because the consent of the bride was made obliga tory for marriage. Economic and re ligious problems were involved, and the Afghan reformer perhaps lacked a knowledge of popular psychology. In -emulating Mustapha Kemal Pasha, Amanullah failed to realize that the Turkish leader, by saving his coun try from division between foreign pow ers, developed a new-born nationalism, whereas Afghanistan was still divided against itself by snow-clad mountains and feudal customs under which tri bal loyalty was more potent than pa* triotism. His Deceptive Welcome Home. Flattering contacts with/' western civilization had weakened Amanullah’s judgment and the cordiality with which he was welcomed home was deceiving. Kabul was in festal array. Gen darmes in new red uniforms stood In rigid lines between bright triumphal arches. Afghan carpets by day and colored lanterns by night brightened the mud walls of the mountain-girt capital, which, like Bukhara, made an earthen flowerpot for colorful crowds. Tribesmen from the hills added their cocky costumes and loop-the-loop foot gear to the best dress of the citizens. In a carnival atmosphere, horse-racing and a theater with feminine roles were introduced to strait-laced keepers of the Faith. On a large w’all map the itinerary of King Amanullah and Queen Souriya was traced. On each seat was a printed text of the foreign contracts and agree ments which the leader of the new Afghanistan had signed—a striking case of political cards on the table, of open covenants in every chair. F ilm s picturing the flattering Euro pean receptions for the A fghan royal ty were shown. Evidently there were older bits, for the French professor who described this amazing period in Kabul life in 1928 complained that Parisian women were pictured In too large hats and too long skirts. Soon after the triumphal return of the prodigal king, opposition appeared. Conservatives resented the higher taxes which widespread reforms would entail. Mullahs and mosque attend ants objected to having their govern ernment allowances stopped. The rap id tempo of modernization brought con fusion and resentment, as did the change of religious holiday from Fri day to Thursday, The fact that a for eign-style coat was made of honest Afghan cloth did not mollify the self- conscious tribal delegates, who retail ated by accusing Amanullah of being negligent about his prayers. ^Vhen '-royal reforms threatened the tribal or der, tbfe Shinwaris rose In revolt. '1 Stamps Show Public Parks Post Office Department I s Piclnring the Beauties to Be FounJ in the NatibharPlaygrohhds. Washington. — Scenes from two more of the nation’s playgrounds found places on United States post age stamps in September when the Post Ofiice department released the four and eight-cent issues of its na tional park series. On September 18, the eight-cent Zion park (Utah) stamp joined its fellows already re leased for their twofold purpose of carrying mail and proclaiming the beauties of America’s out-of-doors. The gray-green stamp had in its cen ter a reproduction of “The Great White Throne”—towering teraplelike rock formation found, in the park. A week later, a four-cent sticker of autumn brown color, representing Mesa Verde National park of Col orado, took its place in the upper right-hand corner of part of the na tion’s mail. On its face stands, in a central design, the camera’s story of “Cliff Palace,” an awesome ruin of the now vanished cliff dwellers. Yellowstone Best Known National Park. “If your knowledge of geography is good,” says a bulletin from the Wash ington headquarters of the National Geographical society, “you probably will know, in which states eight of the ten parks are located; but only if your knowledge is much better than average will you be able cor rectly to place them all. “Yellowstone has been familiar to Americans since it became the coun try’s first national park in 1872. Yet every year thousands of visitors turn homeward from its gates unaware that its area includes parts of Mon tana and Idaho as well as Wyoming. “Inquiries as to the situations of the Grand canyon (Arizona), Mount Rainier (Washington) and Yosemite (California) can be answered by most persons with even a casual knowl edge of the geography of America; but neither the embryo 427-000-acre Great Smoky Mountains Nd’tional park of Tennessee and North Caro lina, nor Glacier National park in Montana are so well known. “Between the longitudes of Acadia National park along the rocky coast of Maine, and Crater Lake National park in southwestern Oregon, lie not only the parks that have been select ed for the stamp series, but ten others, twenty in all within the continental borders of the United States. Two. more, the Hawaii National park and Mount McKinley National park of Alaska, complete the list. “Postage stamp geography was not born with the issue of this series. The Colosseum of Rome is depicted on an Italian stamp; a picture of the Arc -de Triomphe is the central fea ture of a French issue; and several nations have placed miniature maps on the faces of their stamps. “In 1900, Nicaragua pictured her famous volcanic peak, Mount Momo- tombo, on a postage stamp. Some commentators on .the history of engi neering efforts to construct a canal between the Atlantic and Pacific oceans, assert that the Momotombo stamp, calling attention to the pres ence of volcanoes in Nicaragua, turned' the scales in favor of the Panama route.” Why the Sudden Change to Uquid Laxatives? Doctors have always recognized the value of the laxative whose dose can be measured, and whose action can be thus regidated to suit individual need. The public, too, is fast returning to the use of liquid laxatives. People •have learned that a properly pre pared liquid laxative brings a more natural movement without any dis comfort a t the time, or after. The dose of a liquid laxative can be varied to suit the needs of the individual. The action can thus be regulated. It forms no habit; you need not take a “double dose” a day or two later. Nor will a mild liquid laxative irritate the kidneys. The wrong cathartic mag often do more harm than good. Dr. Caldwell’s Syrup Pepsin is a prescription, and is perfectly safe. Its laxative action is based on senna —a natural laxative. The bowels will not become dependent on this form of help. Dr. Caldwell’s Syrup Pepsin is obtainable at all druggists.
