An Arab Honeymoon.

For seven days after the wedding
the Arab bride and bridegroom are
supposed not TO leave their room. The
bride may see none of her own family
and only the women folk of her hus-
band. who wait on her. She remains
in all her wedding finery and paint and
does absolutely nothing. The bride
groom generally slips out at night aft
er three days and sees few friends
privately, but he persistently hides
from his wife's family, and should he
by accident meet his father-in-law be-
fore the seven days are over he turns
his back and draws his burnoOse, Nor

of honeymoon, and they grow as
weary of 1t as any European couple do
