The picture drawn by native friend repre-

In Central ASIA the home of the Moslem is
more in accordance with those simple condi-
tions of life which were enjoned by the Prophet
himself 1t is related that Mahomet said that
the most improbable thing that eateth up the
wealth OF "A believer is the building of fine
houses Shortly before his death he re-.
questcd his friends at Medina not to enlarge
the houses in which he and his wives had re-
sided, so that strangers from the ends of the

THAT the sight thereof would deter men from

The houses OF the rural population in all
parts OF Islap. in Turkey, Egypt. Syria. Ara
bia Persia. s Afghanistan and in India, are
usually built with mud or unburnt bricks.
They are OILY ono story high and of one
apartment, in which the cattle are also
housed. The roofs are fat, and are formed
OF mud and straw laid upon branches of trees
aud rafters. The windows are small apertures

ter of the roof there is an opening to emit the
smoke, the fire being lighted the ground in
the center OF the room. In front of the house
there is an Enclosure, either of tborns mud

The better class OF houses in towns and cities,
consists of two courts. the first being used by
the male visitors and guests. and the inner
court is the hareem Of zcnana, reserved for the
female members of the family. Facing the
cutter court will re an upper chamber which is
the reception-room. and this is furnished with
soft cushions and rich Persian carpets. The

sage. Mahometans are permitted to marry
four free women. although polygamy is not
much practiced by the poor and middle classes.
The marriage rites differ in various countries.
religious ceremony is usual, although not abb
solutely necessary. The bride is not present
st the wedding, but is represented by an at
torney, who takes the hand Of the bridegroom

dishes are placed. Before beginning the meal
the guests are invited to wash their hands,

PATRIOTIC PUPILS.

lands Flag,

The Mills Training School, New York City,
was lavishly decorated with evergreens and
bunting for the holidays The Superintendent
is Mrs Willard. an English woman. BY her
direction. it is said the English flag was dis
played above the Stars and Stripes. This in
censed some of the American born misses, and
they tore down the British flag Christmas Eve.
Then somebody wrote an abusive letter to the
Superintendent and sent it TO her, wrapped in
the flag that had been torn down. The letter
admonishes her to honor Old Glory in the
future. An investigation is in progress to dis
cover tho author of the letter. There was
trouble of similar nature last Summer, it is
said, when the nurses lived in tents on the cam
nus and an attempt was made to display Eng
lish colors from the flagstaff.
