The Afghan Women.

The Afghan women, of whom we saw per-
haps dozen, wore no bonnets, bat simply a
long veil of gausy stuff Look at them in the
right way and they are pretty. Their coun-
tenances have Jewish cast, but they are not
brunettes. Their skin is pale, strlkingy so,
and they wear their hair tied over ball, so
as to make them look more than naturally
white. They walk remarkably well, and in
the management of their wells display much
grace and elegance. OF the men | may as
well say that they are not unlike what cross
between u Hindoo and a Persian would be,
Athletic, fair and well-bearded, they have
aquline faces, with foreheads shaved, and
The hair on the sides hanging in curls that
fall over the shoulder in a picturesque, shay
" mane-lke way. Their carriage is full of
resolution and pride, and from one corner OF
the country to another you cannot but remark
that they remind you of bantam roosters.
And they are like them, too-turbulent. vain,
brutal, quarrelsome, liking nothing better
than the practice of cruel sport. The kazh
of chief tribesman of Co.'s was as perfect a
gamebird as | ever saw.-IrofesSor YAM

What Presidents Like to Eat.

Come with me around the corner and we
will take lunch with Garfeld's steward.
His place is called the Garfield dining-roons,
and he has big crayon OF the dead President
in his front window. He is a short, fat man
with big rosy face, blue eyes and short
thick neck. While we are eating clam
chowder he tells US he has been the steward
for three Presidents, and gossips about the
tastes of Hayes. Arthur and Garfield. Says
he General Garfield had the dyspepsia all
the time he was President. and he lived large
ly upon beefsteak and baked potatoes up to
the time he was shot. President Hayes al
ways had at least fourteen at his dinner table,
and he was generous liver. He was very fond
of candy, and his wife liked angels food cake
very much. President Hayes always ate oat-
meal for breakfast, and he liked the best mix
ture of Mocha and Java coffee that money
could procure. He was not at all stingy, and
his state dinners cost about sl5 plate. Gar
field was fond of breakfast bacon well fried,
and he used cream instead of butter on his
baked potatoes. Both Hayes and Garfield
breakfasted early, and their last meal was
over by 6 o'clock. did not like to work
for President Arthur He kept his cooks up
half the night. and it was almost daybreak
