EGYPT'S PEASANT WOMEN.
English Government Taking Steps
to Educate Them.

English Government Taking Steps
to Educate Them.
The peasant woman of Egypt, the
poor, patient creature who through the
weary length of centuries, through the
yicissitudes and tragedies of dynasties,
rulers and queens, remains, like the
sphinx, unchanged, is presented to the
public in the Fortnightly Review as the
mother of rejuvenated Egypt, 1.-THE
Egypt that will be born not bond, but
free" Already one of her race-the
beautiful Thewfida-has become mother
of the Khediye and from other peasant
mothers. says the writer, Walter t.
Melville, great sons are destined to be
born
At the present time, however, there
appears to be few signs of greatness
in the Egyptian daughter of the soil.
Her very name, fellaha, means to pillow
or till, and from her earliest years she
is accustomed to drudgery.

vile, peasant baby girls are posted as
sentinels over the horses and cattle
tethered in the wildly green barseem
fields Active little maidens carry di-
minutive hods or baskets of mortar or
bricks when building operations are in
progress, or are sent to destroy cater
pillars when they threaten to destroy
the crops. The bigger girls in time of
wheat harvest join with the older wom-
on in nlI lob To Go

wearisome occupations of the peasant
woman's day begins with her house
hold duties, the washing, securing, bak-
ing and cooking; then comes her mod
est marketing, and much time also is
given to her dusky little cherubs, the
children who, when small, tread only
on her skirts, but who, when they come
to mans estate, oft trample on her
heart. In the intervals of homework
there Is even labor in the fields ready
to her hand.
The fundamental fact that she Is de-
sirable solely on account Of her sex Is
dinned into the fellaha's ears from girl
hood her upbringing holds out to her
no other goal than marriage; her broth
ers early learn a sensual attitude to-
ward all womankind. From pecuniary
necessity, a fellahs means not permit

and she NEEDLES not even in village
concerns which may affect her husband.
She is not even expected to have any
religion. Humbly in her soul under
heavens blue canopy she cannot bless
Allah. the compassionate, the merciful,
whose celestial breath she feels In the
cool morning air, but religious duties
are not obligatory for her as for men,
and she may but rarely enter
mosque during the regular hours Of
prayer"
In conclusion. Mr.. Melville says the
British government is taking some steps
by means of education to prepare the
future mothers of Egypt for their en-
larging responsibilities. and, consider
ing the difficulties of the situation, has
made encours ging progress.

Their Own Hymns.

Bishop Heber was among the lew
men whose hymns passed into the
heritage of Christendom during their
lifetime. He was Bishop of Calcutta,
and. as every one knows, wrote From
Greenland's Icy Mountains" He once
heard one of his compositions sung
by his native converts in Meerur,
more beautifully, he thought, than he
ever had in England. And as he lis
tened to the voices of the souls he
had awakened, he felt belief in his
power for good which he had never
before experienced
Rev. G. R. Prynne felt some natural
pleasure on one occasion when the IN
cumbent of the Protestant Church AT
Rome gave out his hymn, Jesus,
Meek and Gentle" when he was help
ing in the service. He discovered
afterward that the clergyman was en-
tirely ignorant that he was the au-
thor: but even when shorn of compli-
mentary significance, the incident left
sweet and lasting impression.
He had not realized till then that
his hymn had made its way in the
world outside England. Hearing It
so far away from home, he said, seem
ed to widen his sphere of service.
A curate once ventured to hand
book to the late Bishop Wordsworth
of Lincoln at church opening, while
his hymn. 20 Day of Rest and Glad
ness" was being rendered. The
bishops gesture, of refusal was fine
and courtly.

Mamma Oriental Babies.

In some foreign places the parents
have odd ways of naming their chill
dren The little Chinese girls are
considered of so little Importance that
they generally go by numbers, 1, 2,
and 5, according TO the place they oc-
cupy in the family, and rarely get a
name at all. Chinese boys have a
name given them by which they are
called until they are 20 years of age;
then their fathers choose a new name
for them.
Hindoo babies are named when they
are II days old. which are usually
flower names chosen by their mother
The Japanese are also fond Of pref
ty names for their little girls, and
they are usually called after some
flower, such as. Chrysanthemum
Cherry Blossom, etc, but in some
parts they receive their names when
they are five years old. and then it
is selected by their father
The Egyptians have peculiar way
of choosing names for their babies

quietly, mot for all the mothers In the

She looked at him searchingly, the
trouble in her eyes slowly giving way
to a look of happiness, of contentment,
the sight of which brought smile Of
exultation to his face.

this was quickly followed by an express

had learned to fear.
