MO0rish Brides.

The condition Of women IN Morocco IS
most pitlable. They are all slaves, and the
lot OF those who are so avowedlv and teche
ncally Is much less miserably dull, monoto.
nous and degraded than that of the ladies
who are supposed to repose on satin divans.
sip sherbet, eat dainty devices in sugar, and
string pearls in the harem, in which their
occupations are in reality much more pro-
sale, and their surroundings much lees
splendid. The wedding festivities are ex-
ceediDgly barbarous, the unhappy bride
being cauird to her husbands house in a
box on mules back, with little boy also
shut up with her in durance, as a happy
prognostic of the future A box OF sweet
meats is also placed in the box, to while
away the time and console the small boy.
A horrible noise, bowling, drumming, firing
IA kept up the whole way: and the female
relations OF the bride groom, who does not
appear at ALL receive the bride on the
threshold with appalling shrieks Of All
zee. Ah-yee -
The box is carried in. the door is shut, the
friends dIsperse, but the musicians remain,
and the horrible din goes on for hours. No
religious ceremony takes place, and the fat
tenlng Of the bride Is the only preparation
ON her part TOR Eoiy matrlmony. For this
purpose. says the author of "a Winter in
Morocco from the time of her bethrothal
sne ls confined to one room, not permitted
70 take any exercise, and com PEELED 10
swallow large quantities Of kesksoo every
Gay. This system, steadfas.ly pursued for
lew weeks, brings her into a condition
that Ii con sidered in Morocco becoming
obesity. l have heard of an intended bride
so fat that she was unable to pick up her
pocket handkerchief when che dropped it,
and who could with difficulty move across
the room without assistance"
