Life in Moorish harem is a very restricted
affair. The women are prohibited from COM
municating with the outside world. II is con-
sidered deflement punishable by death for an
outsider to behold one of the sutan's consorts
but Muley Abdul has so far dsregarded this ira
dition by showing pictures he has taken of some
of his wives to be published He has also upset
Mohammedan conventionalities in another way
by becoming maker of pictures. Mohammed
said, "All painters are destined for the fires of
Hades."
HAREM RECRUITS.
The Sultan's harem is recruited from all Mos
lem and the harem contains every shade of color
from to ebony. Muley's mother herself
was a Circassian who purchased in
Constantinople at great price
The standing of woman in the harem is en-
HANGED if she gives birth to a child. OF children
there are many. Children born in the harem do
not stay there. All but few are placed through
out the domains of the Sultan to grow up in
ignorance, perhaps, of their high birth. few
children of the favorite wives are raised at the
palace, but they are given little liberty for fear
that they may gather a following and premature
" seek succession to the throne
Periodically the Sultan conducts grand shake
up in the harem. when he confers upon sub
jects in high standing such wives as he no longer
cares to keep. To receive such castoff wife is
supposed to involve a great compliment. New
wives fill up the ranks.
Up to the time the Sultan introduced modern
scientific playthings into the harem, the chief
excitement of the wives was the semi-weekly par
ade before NIuley Abdul to which one he
would pick out as his companion for the next
day or two. Moorish mobiles raise their daugh-
tiers with view of fitting them for the harem
of the Sultan.
