Egyptian Women.

The Egyptian beasts of burden, the
camel, the Ok, the donkey, have the
same patient look as the people. 1t
may not be improper to add another
beast Of burden. woman. There is the
look of sad patience in every Egyp-
tlan woman's eyes as in the melan-
choly river boiling at its great task,
and In the face of the camel, the dom
key and the OK. They all look at you
with the same expression of patience.
They seem content to live. no matter
the conditions of their often wretched
life-and not DESTROYS of making
change or resistance. The long swing
of the camel. the measured stride of
the OK or b, ffalo. the half-trot of the
donkey are seen everywhere. The
woman's face is covered. al least her
mouth is always, for no Mohammedan
woman may expose her mouth to the
vulgar gaze of passers-by. All have
the same Ell oppression in their eyes as
the camel or other animals.

The latest fad among the fashion
abb, women Of the country Is campho:
eating. The idea seems to prevail that
this gum. taken in small and regular
doses. gives a peculiar GREATNESS Of
complexion. and scores of young wom-
en- buy it for this purpose. The habit
is, moreover. very difficult to cast of.
for camphor produces a nila fo'n OF
exhilaration and stupefaction. and In
many instances where very large doses
have been swallowed the habit has
become a sort of slavery. These cam
phor eaters all have a dreamy, dazed
and very ~listless air, and in most OF
them there is an ever-present longing
to sleep, or, at least. to rest. Extreme
weakness generally follows the taking
of regular doses and cases have been
seen where 1t was almost difficult to
tell the effects from those Of alcohol.
