WEDDING CUSTOMS OF TURKEY.

what goes on in the wedding house.

meet their friends after marriage:

the other hand. the same misfortune
has fallen on the bride, similar re-
marks are made. The faces of the
young friends of the bride betray pity
for her, as tnCugh they were going to
share her misfortune. Those ladies
who wish to find wives for their sons
go to weddings on purpose to see mar
riageable girls, of whom many are to
be seen at every wedding. They find
a free choice there, but do they get
what they want? That is vital ques-
ton. II they do not make the selec-
ton in accordance with their own
social position and if they make tact

admire and who belongs to family
