Endurance of Arabian Porters.

Arab carriers bear great loads upon
their backs and go at a trotting pace
from 6 a. m. to 6 p. m. During the
month of Ramadan the Koran forbids
the taking of food between sunrise
and sunset, and this law is said to be
held sacred and rarely violated. Not
only do these porters continue their
ardueus physical exertion during the
twelve laboring hours of the day
without taking any food during that
period, but the French inspectors who
are in charge of the gangs told our in
formant that they could work better
during the month of the fast than at
any other time of the year, because
their energy was not needed for
digestion. At eventide these Arabs
have a moderate meal of wheatmeal
porridge, mixed with large proportions
of butter lit is to be had cheap or
olive oil. Their expenditure for food
is not more than six or seven cents a
day, and the only luxury which they
permit themselves is a cup of very
strong black coffee and a cigarette.
The idler exists on one cents worth
of bread, with a little olive oil, which
he buys for an additional five cents.-
