lPan Mall Gazette
The British occupation Of Cyprus has had
no serious effect IN breaking down the Turk
ish rules as to women's conduct. All decent
Turkish women 90 aheut covered as mother
Moslem countries. have ridden along
road for 10 milea, keeping IN view three
Turkish women, themselves, indeed, riding
straddle-legged on doukeys, but never drop
ping for an instant the coverings on their
faces. Turkish ladies eonlne their exchange
of visits to the wives and sisters OF tho
English residents. II, indeed, the English
lady cannot speak little Turkish, or II a
female interpreter Is not available, an Ar
menian clerk Is admitted to the interview;
but he Is obliged to stand In the corner,
turning himself towards the wall, and
holding his face IN which position he
shouts out as much of the talk on either side
as reaches him. An English lady, on one Of
these occasions, said TO the wife Of one Of
her husbands colleagues, 81 hope you will
soon be able to walk about as we do in the
bazaar." The Turkish lady shuddercd, and
said, In tone Of unutterable ioathing,
s'That would be nice" The English lady
saw reason TO agree in this view very shortly
afterwards, as she was very unceremoniously
pinched by Turkish youth while STOPPING
down in the bazaar to examine some vege-
tables. The uncovered women whom the
American saw in company with Englishmen
q soldiers) were doubtless some Of the
Syrian public women who came to settle In
the island as soon as Il was known that
Tommy Atkins was TO be quaTtered there.
As q matter Of fact, nearly all the Turks In
Cyprus are monogamists.

We HOPE BserV E0e.sing did not mean
what IT said yesterday about Mrs. Langtry
and her remark to the dramatic critic OF the
Memphis Apped for while the expression
attributed TO her is certainly violation OF
the canons of good English 1t seems to us
that not even the very grossest sin against
the language could properly be styled " the
hardest thing that has been said of her
IN view OF what has been said. Assuredly
our evening contemporary does not mean to
account grammatical accuracy Of more
worth than morality.
