RED HEADS STRANGE PEOPLE
Last of the eaaI Worshipers Engage in Two Occupations. Agriculture
 and Theft.

The other day there was the report that some of our soldiers on the Tigris had come across q village of Red Heads, writes ]. c. Bristow Noble in the London Globe. Strange people are these Baal worshippers. The men wear red caps, hence their name Red Heads. They also wear red knotted cords around their neckS. The cord is put on during babyhood and Is never removed. It is inferred with the body after death. They shave their heads except for patch on the top, and here they allow the hair to grow long and plait it into pigtails, which hang about their ears. They are tall. wiry fellows, with enormous appetites for both food and drink.
 The women. who do not veil them selves, and who dress simply in loose fitting garments, are thin and spare, but wonderfully strong. In their homes they wear brooches as we'll as skirts. There is no wife beating among the Red Heads but plenty of husband beating. The husbands take their ire quent chastisements meekly and pa- tiently. They employ themselves. both the women and the men. in agriculture and theft. They produce Il couple of crops-tobacco and durra the rest of their time is given up to footing the Turks crops and cattle. Their little whitewashed. low-roofed dwellings with small unglazed, but shuttered, windows are divided into three apart ments; a kitchen, q guest ro0m- Il sleeping room. X few earthenWare jars, about five feet in height and filled with grain and dried fruits are kept in the guest room, and the guests help themselves.

The "Aorse IauQh."

land Oregonian asks that journal if there is warrant or authority in litera- ture for the term "horse laugh" The lady is evidently of opinion that the term is vulgarism, but the Oregonian 1isabuses her of that impression by quoting such authorities as Pope, Gold smith. Richardson and Dickens. It may need to be added that the three last named attributed the expression Q characters drawn by them, but Pope, master of literary style in his day, uses it us his own in "Epilogue to Satlres."
