They will keep out the cold. If 1 do not have something to cover my slippers 1 shall be frost-bitten before we reach Kars!" The proprietor brought the boots for my inspection. He had a very Jewish type of countenance, and at once commenced driving a bargain with Mohammed.
"But you told me down-stairs that the boots were 125 piastres, and now'you ask 165?" observed the Turkish servant, indignantly.
" They are my boots, and not yours, " said the Armenian, " and I shall charge what 1 like for them.... " It appeared that the difference of opinion between Mohammed and the shoemaker had arisen owing to the Armenian thinking that he would be paid in caime, or bank-notes, nnd not in silver. Caime, in Sivas, had fallen to 165 piastres the lira. It was formerly 125; so by the depreciation of the paper currency the shoemaker would lose forty piastres on every pair of boots he sold, if purchased from him at the present rate of exchange. Many of the Turks were alarmed at the constant fall in the value of their paper currency.
