When Turk has disposed of his visitors
he goes into his haremlik to dine or break
fast, first removing his bGbauches. This
custom of removing ones shoes before en-
tering a room IS not religious superstition,
but comes of the necessity for keeping car
pets clean, seeing that they fulfill the pur-
pose of chairs, tables, sofas, in other coun-
tries. The ladies' room may be furnished
like Partisan boudoirs; Lut custom is strong
er than fashion, and the Turks of both sex
es like to recline OF sit cross-legged on the
floor. Their'carpets are curiously soft and
thick. ana the carpets over the doors shut
out all draughts and noises. Through the
open windows that look out on the garden
come scent of roses and the hum of bees,
mingled with the laughter Of the children,
who are playing On well trimmed lawn,
nurses. The mistress Of the harem-
the Bunk Hanum great LADY,, to
give her her full htle-dresses much like
an English lady nowadays, reads French
novels and plays the piano, though she dons
upon state occasions, such as the chalvas,
when she entertains other ladies'. Chalva
means cake, but has come to designate q
party at which that dainty is eaten, Just as
we say tea for tea-party in England When

batrns0uses and babouchesin an ante room,
and put on delicate slippers, which they
have brought with them in bags. The re-
ception rooms are brilliantly lighted up
with pink wax candles, and scented with
fragrant pastilles. There is no kissing or
hand-shaking between the hostess and her
guests; but each lady, as she comes in, lifts
her hand gracefully to her heart, her lips
and her brow, which means Il am devoted
to you with heart, mouth and mind % This

THE STORY OF THE CATE.

Across the pathway, myrtle fringed
Under the maple, it was hinged
The little wooden gate;
Twas there, within the quiet gloom,
When had strolled with Nelly home,
! fused to pause and wait
Before I said to her good night,
Yet 10th to leave the WinsOme sprito
Within the gardens pale;
And there, the gate between us two,
We'd linger, as all lovers do:
And lean upon the rail
And face to face, eyes close to eyes,
Hands meeting hands infeigned surprise
After stealthy quest
SO close la bend ere she'd retreat
That I'd grow drunken from the sweet M
Tuberose upon her breast
We'd talk in fitful style, ween-
With many meeting glance between
The tender words and low;
We'd whisper some dear, sweet conceit,
Some idle gossip we'd repeat;
And then Tde move to CO.
"Good night" rde say: "Good night good
''Good nightt''-from her, with half sigh
ssGood night" ''Good night?' And then
And then do not 60, but stand, I
Again lean on the railing, and
Begin it all again!
All! that was many day ago
That pleasant summer time although
The gate is standing yet;
A little cranky, 1T may be,
A little weather worn-ike me-
Who never can forget
The happy End?" Ny cynic frieaa,
Pray save your sneers- there was no "end."
Watch yonder chubby thing!-
That is our youngest, hers.and mine;
See how he climbs, his legs to Irvine
About the gate and swing:

On Saturday, July ID, we witness
ed one of the best conducted and

entire congregation seated in classes
when the children received spleu-
did treat; and then all present par
took Of the delicacies and substan-
tials Of lifc, which the ladies of the
neighbofhood had nbundantly pro-
vidcd, together with bountful sup
ply Of lemonade. We will remem-
Der this celebration as one OF the
most pleasant we ever attended.

TIE CELEBRATION AT poRsEr's SCHOOL
HOUSE.

TIE CELEBRATION AT DORSEY SCHOOL
HOUSE
Tho picnic of Ike Dorsey Schoo
House Union Sunday School on Satur.
day, July I'd, WAS great success. On
the arrival of the AIorgantown Cornet
Band at the school house, procession
was formed, under the marshalship ot
Superintendent Samuel Morris, headed
by the portly form OF Mr. All. Frum
on horseback, carrying the stars and
stripes. The procession marched to the
orchard of Mrs. Pool, near Aaron's
creek, the place selected for the fcstivi,
ties. On arriving at the orchard we
found the place alive with horses, wag-
ons, buggies and carriages, and hum
dreds of people, old and young, were
dispersed under the trees. A large Ia
bic. running the whole length of the
orchard, and surrounded by seats for the
accommodation of the scholars and Wis
itors, was fairly groanjng under the
weight Of edibles Of the best kind, pro-
vided by the friends of the school. The
decorations Were elaborate and chaste,
entirely in keeping with the rural sur
rounding. Mr.. Sam. Morris, after wei.
coming the visitors with u few WELL
timed remarks, gave history Of the
Sunday School and its wonderful pro-
gross Dinner being now ready, all par
ties, in the best order were helped by
the ladies in charge to one of the best
fcasts ever provided at a picnic. Eve
rything was in abundance, ice cold lem
onade, candies, oranges and peanuts,
After dinner the Rev Mr. Craile dcliv-
cred q grand, eloquent and patriotic ads
dress. The festivities Of the day were
greatly enlivencd by music of the Cor.
net Band and choice vocal selections by
the Harmony Grove singing class,
whilst the young folks passed their time
in rural games. The best order pre-
vailed all day and nothing marred the
pleasure Of the picnic. A resolution of
thanks was voted to Mrs, Pool for the
free use Of her orchard, to the Cornet
Band for their splendid music, to Rev.
Mr. Crallc for his excellent Grafton and
to the Harmony Grove singing class.
When the time arrived to go home,
the only regret was that the day was
not longer. The universal opinion was
that Superintendent Sam. Morris is the
right man in the right place, and al
though young in years he is old in ex-
perience, and an enthusiastic and sue
cessful Sunday School worker. We
wish the Union Sunday School of the
Dorsey school house every success possl
bic. and we hope to meet with them
again at their next annual celebration
and be once more among old friends
and neighbors. May God, in his mer-
cy, preserve them for many more festive
occasions. IL GUEST.

The above Sunday School proceeded
to the University campus, on the
morning of the Fourth, where an eff
ficient committee of arrangements
had made ample arrangements for
the comfort of everybody. The
place was found admirably adapted
to the purpose, and the. day was
greatly enjoyed by all. All stiffness
and burdensome ceremony was cast
aside, and mutual intercourse was
had between old and young. The
children enjoyed their freedom, but
did not abuse it. Most of the people
remained during almost the entire
day. The provisions on the ground
were more than sufficient to meet the
wants Of all, even including an un-
usual number of hungry, basketless
boys, Who were kindly received and
bountifiilly fed. Surely the boys
and girls OF this school ought to be
right good Scholars when theiI
older friends have done so handsome-
