MARRIAGE IN AssYBIA.
Rather More Matter of Barter There
Than In the Land of the Free.


Rather More a Matter of Barter There
Than In the Land of the Free.
Men live on six cents a day in Assyria.
Assyrian women are bought and sold,
are made to work with oxen at the plow,
and have as little liberty as in the days
of Cadmus. Men who pay six dollars
day to live and ladies who ride to shops
in victorias thought over these things as
they left the Lincoln Park church Sun
day night. Amen Rasi, born on Mount
Lebanon, told these things in broken
English.
Amen Rasi is a tall, handsome Assy-
rian, with skin as rich as the cinna-
mon silks made at the foot of the noun
tain on which he was born He looked
into the curious, bright eyes of girls
and told them that, had they been born
Assyrians in Assyria they could not go
upon the streets unless their faces were
concealed; that they could neither re-
ceive nor make call among women
without their husbands consent, and
that if at any time, even by accident,
they were seen by any man or in any
way recognized no one would marry
them.
He said that once two couples-a tall
man and q short woman, and a short
man and tall woman-stood before a
priest to be wed. The priest placed the
tall man and tall woman and the short
man and short woman together, and
none of the four knew whether it was
right or not, neither of them knowing
the other. But the parents hastily OBJ
jected, and placed the tall man by the
short woman and the short man by the
tall woman, as that was the way of the
contracts.
Then Mr.. Rasi showed how these con-
tracts were made. He left the pulpit,
and presently man wrapped up in rich
Assyrian raiment went up and sat upon
the floor. Mr.. Rasi came back and
squatted beside him.
81 would very much like" he said,
"for girl who is yours to be wife to my
son Isaac"
II would be honored," returned the
man, with very unmistakable Ameri-
can accent.
"How many have youF"
"Three."
"How much years have theyY
Zone is fifteen, one twenty and one
twenty-five"
Don't talk to me about the twenty
five nor the twenty; they are never fit to
marry How much do you charge for
the little one?"
Give camels, four horses, three sheep
and fif-V dollars"
"Bahl l can buy 100 women for SO
much"
"But no little one."
"Oh, think so"
"Well, you can't have mine for cent
less"
"I pay"
But even then Isaac did not get the
little one, because a few minutes later
Mr.. Rasi returned as another man, and
by doubling the price secured the girl
for his son Jacob.
Then Amen Rasi looked at the young
men, whose patent feathers cost them
seven dollars, and told them that people
in Assyria paid fifty cents for a suit of
clothes. The common people, he said,
paid three cents for twenty-five pounds
of cabbage and four cents for five pounds
of turnips. Fifty loaves of bread were
turned out at baking, and men some
times ate four and five loaves at meal.
He waited for moment, and then, turn
ing to black boy behind him, said,
''They are so big" and he drew circle
that would inclose Thanksgiving plat
