Camela In Africa.

At the present day camels are used
for all sorts OF domestic purposes In
Africa. They may even be seen draw
ing plows in the interior Of the regency
of Tunis. You may remark a woman
and a camel harnessed to the same
pillow. and you hesitate to decide
which Is the greater outrage. They
are also used for drawing water from
the strange. cumbersome. old fashioned
wells of north Africa. Their chief use,
however, is for caravans. You may be-
hold them bringing in huge cases OF
dates from the GASES, or you may see
them with great tentlike structures OF
red silk upon their backs. These tents
are for the conveyance Of Arab women
OF the upper classes, who seek to main
tain the privacy OF the harem when
on a journey. Two women and some
children are often accommodated on
one camel They have cushions on
which they can lie down and even
sleep. II is stuffy. and it is dark. but
