The elephants howdah is that bed of
Procrustes, in which one can neither
sit nor stand with any approach to
reasonable ease, and in which recum-
bent attitude is impossible! Its ad-
vantages are: First, that, standing in
it, a man can shoot on every side of him;
second, that 1t is convenient for the
carriage Of the occupants parapher-
nalia-his guns, in racks on either side,
his ammunition in trough in front,
his other requisites in leather pockets
here and there on the sides of the ma
chine, or, as to that bee blanket, on his
seat, and third, that in the hinder COM
partment an attendant can sit or stand
to hold that monstrous umbrella over
his head, or, when quick loading is re-
quired, take from his hand the gun
just fred and recharge it. Those are
the advantages; otherwise the howdah
is an abomination.-Blac Maya

SLAVES IN HAREMS.
There is q Vast Difference Between the
Wife and tho Odalisques.

Wife and tho Odalisques.
Slaves in Egyptian and Turkish har-
ems are rarely Jealous of each other
when one rises to be lady, nor will
the fortunate one treat the other with
anything like pride. This kind feeling
will, however, disappear if by an un-
fortunate hazard both are elevated to
the same position in a harem, and it
would be unnatural were it not so, for
it would be impossible for five or six
wives, with only one husband between
them, to exist without experiencing
any sentiment of jealousy. OF the real
position of those wives, the Christian
world is very ignorant First of all,
there is great difference between the
legitimate wife aud the odalisques A
few years ago, when man was twen-
ty, his father would go to the slave
market and send home a few slay es,
from whom his son would be expected
to choose a wife; this once over, and
the contract of the fortunate one
written, the father would consider
his duty done, and leave the
rest to the bridegroom himself,
who would in his turn buy
couple or two of slaves, ostensibly
for his wife, but really for himself.
During the life of the father, these
would still be considered as slaves
that is, supposing the son lives in the
same house; for the father, thinking
himself bound to protect the wife he
had procured, would never permit the
slaves to attain another rank. But al
| the fathers death, his wives would re-
tire to their children's homes and the
sons wife would then be installed as
| lady of the house, while the Others
would receive the title of odalisques
and each possess her own suite OF
apartments, her own slaves, her own
| table, and, when her children are old
err, perhaps her own carriage. The
harem would thus be divided into lodg
ings. where each lady would lead n:
separate q life as if she lived in a diff,
ferent home, but over which the CHIEF
lady would still possess the privilege
of reigning supreme. The real posi-
ton of these odalisques is difficult tC
explain clearly; they rank much lower
than their children, but much higher
than their slaves. San Francisco Ar
