A Warning.

Marmaduke Piekthall, whose story.
said, the Fisherman" gives such n
vivid picture Of Turkish Palestine, has
a warning to give to women who visit
Oriental countries. He says. "If Eu-
ropean ladies knew how the Arab speaks
of them and had heard the stories of
easy conQUests I have heard in coffee
houses. they would not be 50 familiar
with their dragomans. Their quite inno-
cent cOquetry with the English speaking
natives of the country has often sick
ened me, knowing the Arabs inability
to understand such freedom"
