IN A HAREM.
How Breakfast Is Served and of What 1t
Consists.

How Breakfa Is Served and of What II
Consists.
A plate of broth before each guest; in the
middle of a big red tray. containing tum-
blers of water and syrup, and small plates
filled with sweets, ~caviare. sardines-all
kinds of hors d'nuvre, in fact, which are
plentifully patronized. I am seated next to
the pasha's daughter. A promiscuous 1out
OF servants and slaves wait upon us. Some
are white; some are very, very black. The
latter wear the most elementary Of colored
hemise or night dresses, caught around
the waist with a string. After the soup
comes a huge platter of little bits of roasted
mutton. In difference to my prejudices, l
am helped upon a separate plate, though
had come prepared to act upon the princi-
pie of a whimsical old friend of my childish
days. whose paraphrasing of "a la guerre
CONNIE a la Ruerre' was In Turkey do as
the turkeys do.o
am bound to state that separate plates
are likewise set before the ladies' of
the harem. But this is the merest matter
OF form. BY common consent all the forks
are dipped simultaneously into the central
dish. and bits are PROCEED out and con-
vveyed to the lips without any unnecessary
delay. Sometimes the good old maxim that
fingers were made before forks is acted
upon. l am not sorry now that my preiu-
dices have been respected. The mutton
being cleared away, another great central
dish OF eggs and onions succeeds. The game
scene as before is enacted.
And now comes a sweet dish of Turkish
pastry - the greasiest, faakiest, lightest,
sweetest. most surfeitest pastry in the
world. Then follow a%rtichokes stuffed
with minoemeat, which are soon made real
mincemeat of by the crowd of forks and
nnuers. More pastIy-meaty his time
and then a very curious dish, which is at
sacked by a dozen spoons at one and the
same time, that promptly return to the at
sack after leaving the lips to which they
have been directed in the interim. Once
more canno ind it in my heart to regret
that my p%rejudices have led to my being
helped upon a plate to myself.

After oranges had been distributad tn tho

Tepsired to the adjoining room. Their ser
wants and slaves focked into an adjoining
apartment. where they and the children
took their lftar with less of forks and more
of fingers than their mistresses; and
slipped my Turkish coffee and lighted my
Turkish cigarette under the direct protec-
ton of my friend, the Pasha's daughter

He had scarcely done so when he was
startled to see few lines above an

lookcu closely at 1t, wondering wheth-
or it could be- possible that he had

he was sober, but it certainly looked
like his own signature. Presently a

and asked il there WAS any mail for
