The great city of Bagdad-on-the-Subway is caliph-ridden. Its palaces, bazaars¹, khans, and byways are thronged² with Al Rashids in divers³ disguises, seeking diversion and victims for their unbridled generosity⁴. You can scarcely find a poor beggar whom they are willing to let enjoy his spoils unsuccored, nor a wrecked⁵ unfortunate upon whom they will not reshower the means of fresh misfortune. You will hardly find anywhere a hungry one who has not had the opportunity to tighten⁶ his belt in gift libraries, nor a poor pundit⁷ who has not blushed at the holiday basket of celery-crowned turkey forced resoundingly through his door by the eleemosynary press.

So then, fearfully through the Harun-haunted streets creep the one-eyed calenders, the Little Hunchback and the Barber's Sixth Brother, hoping to escape the ministrations of the roving horde⁸ of caliphoid sultans.

Entertainment for many Arabian nights might be had from the histories of those who have escaped the largesse⁹ of the army of Commanders of the Faithful. Until dawn you might sit on the enchanted¹⁰ rug and listen to such stories as are told of the powerful genie¹¹ Roc-Ef-El-Er who sent the Forty Thieves to soak up the oil plant of Ali Baba; of the good Caliph Kar-Neg-Ghe, who gave away palaces; of the Seven Voyages of Sailbad, the Sinner, who frequented wooden excursion steamers among the islands; of the Fisherman and the Bottle; of the Barmecides' Boarding house; of Aladdin's rise to wealth by means of his Wonderful Gasmeter.
