like Their DESERT
Bedouin Women the Possessors
Of Savage Beauty.
earbarie Ornaments, With Which The,
Load Themselves, Do Not Seem
Out Of Plaee-Abandoning An
Client Customs.

All the women Of the Bedouin village
came to see us, writes Elizabeth Coop
er in Asia. They had magnificent
physiQues tall and supple. and carried
themselves with stately. grace. They
were dressed in long, straight cotton
gowns of blue or black, and many.
colored sash was wrapped around the
waist. The only foot coverings were
the anklets of silver that fell down
over the instep. Over their hair, which
was braided in many braids, and In
which were plated small gold coins
that clinked musfcally as they moved
their heads, they wore wells of black
with a colored border, which added to
their dignity and beauty in most
charming manner.
From the lower lip to the neck, and
three dark blue lines of rattooing This
tattooing Is seen now only on the older
women, and is being thrown on the al.
tar of modernity by the daughters OF
the Bedouins who have peeped into the
outer world and are trying to be more
like their city neighbors. The hair Is
straight and black, and with many has
been given tinge of red by washing
it in henna. I saw no gray-haired wom-
en-. because those who have been
touched by the finger of time have
been allowed by kindly custom to dye
their locks. and there were many fam
ing heads above wrinkled faces. Hen
ma is also applied to the nails of the
fingers and toes, and the under side
of the feet and palms are not forgotten
by the BedOuin woman who has con-
served the customs of her mother and
has not yet relegated the henna pot
to the lumber room along with the tat
tOoing ink.
Great masses of jewelry were worn
by all, not the diamonds and rubie.,
found in the cities, but the true orna-
ments of a barbaric people. Hoops Of
gold We're In the ears-One hanging
from the top of the ear another from
the lobe. The neck was covered with
chains formed of balls OF gold or Of
coins, and on the arms were many
bracelets. In writing coldly OF the Bed.
ouin woman, her tattoOing, her henna-
colored hair, her Northumberland eyes,
and her massive chains of gold and
anklets Of silver, 1t seems as IL she
were still in an age of barbarism, yet
her ornaments are becoming to her
rich coloring and she is not over
dressed. Ornaments belong to the time
and the place, and are made for these
women, who need strong settings for
their own savage beauty.

The Social Fabric.

To uphold the social system women
submit TO uncovnted tests OF their con-
stancy. They endure physical discom-
fort, ennui, the peril of cold drafts and
daihp places, hours OF WEAKNESS and

sake of what, to man, is an unim-

BIRDS ARE VALUED
Carrier Pigeons Do Excellent
Service for Army.
Many Now Being Trained at the Unl-
versity Of Wisconsin Under the
Direction Of the Government
Made Splendid Record.

Carrier pigeons for the army are
now being trained at the University Of
Wisconsin, and special experiments
with the birds are being carried on
under the direction. of the government.
This new war work has been taken
up under the direction of Prof. l.. j.
Cole. head OF the department OF ex-
perimental breeding.
Twenty-Five young pigeons have
been received from the signal corps
for use in flying investigations, and
IA old birds for breeding purposes
have been donated by Cleveland
pigeon fancier.
Lieut.. w. l.. Butler of the central
department OF the signal corps at Chi
cago and Maj. Frank Griffin Of the
Washington office were at the univer-
sity recently making arrangements for
the work.
A warning not to shoot pigeons has
been issued by the bureau of informa-
tion at Washington on account of the
large number of homing pigeons which
are being trained in various parts of
the country. Now that the training is
also being carried on in Wisconsin, the
people of that state are being warned
not to shoot pigeons. and If any bird
Is found bearing the label "U. S. A.
o. 49," the mark borne by all govern
ment pigeons, II should be reported to
the chief signal officer at Washington.
In the present war homing pigeons
play large part in the carrying OF
important messages, because they can
fly home when telephones. telegraph
and wireless have been destroyed, and
are rarely hit by gunfire.
The process of training pigeon for
military purposes consists in first TAX
ing it about 1000 yards from home and
loosing it so that il can fly back; then
the distance is increased and the di-
rection changed as the training pro-
crosses.
The average speed of a homing
pigeon is from 1.400 tor LOO yards n.
minute, although many make much
higher speed than this. Important
messages in the army are usually sent
by two birds in order to insure safe
delivery and but few messages are lost.
A small aluminium container is
fastened to the birds legs to carry
messages, or else the bits of paper are
tied directly on the legs.
Stories are recorded daily in the
war of life-saving feats accomplished
by homing pigeons. A crew of ves-
sci struck by submarine recently had
just time to free homing pigeon be-
fore the ship sunk. Although the bird
was wounded by shots from the Ger
man submarine, 1t flew to another
craft IL miles away qnd saved the
lives of the men fioundering about in
the water.
Men are in great demand in the
homing pigeon operator branch of the
signal service. No man of draft age
can be inducted into this service. but
there is call for men below twenty
one and over thirty years of age for
this work.
