Arab EnRe

The Arab who is fighting with the
Turks in MesopOtamia has some curl
u ways. He takes off his shoes
when he enters a house, but keeps on
his hat. He reads and writes from
right to- left. He eats scarcely any
thing for breakfast or dinner, but in
the evening he sits down to a hot meal
swimming in oil. His sons eat with
him, but the ladies of the household
wait till the males have finished.
The Arab rides a donkey when trav-
cling, his wife walking behind, and he
laughs at the idea Of giving up his
seat for a woman. The Arab has one
strong virtue, and that is, he is rarely
seen drunk. He is not very affection
ate, is very ignorant, and has so little
initiative that he rarely takes IN any
thing worth doing, or attempts to
carry put any enterprise.
