81 should be glad to get back to the
harem and get on my veil again"
This seems like a strange statement
for an Englishwoman to make in these
days of Mrs. Pankhurst, but it was sin
cerely made by Grace Ellison in the
Woman's Club OF London the other day.
She granted that what she said might
seem shocking for a Western woman to
saw" but she has evidently found Tur-
key what Pierri Lott, the French au-
thor, who lives there, has found it to be.
The ordinary English woman" said
Miss Ellison, "has queer idea of the
East. To them the very name 'harem'
suggests something improper, but for
tired Western woman there could be no
more delightful rest cure than long
visit to Turkish household.
'1n the West every woman, whether
she is duchess or a washewoman, is
worrying or working either to keep up
her social position or TO earn her living.
In the East there is not this continued
struggle.
The women OF the harems are not
dull. Their opportunities give them
time To grow wise and philosophical.
They are often well read, their talk is
extremely good, and they discuss with
dignity and cleverness many subjects
that the so called laws of good taste for
bid TO the average Western woman.

their movements, but their minds are
free, so that one gets a wider outlook
on many things through friendship with
