WOMAN'S RULE is ABSOLUTE
Tuareg Tribesnen Go Yelled and Must
Obey the Commands Issued by
Their Wives.

Among the Tadr25s, found in the
vilayet of Tripoli, it is man, the brute,
who by all the laws of the country has
to obey the women. Descent is traced
through the mother; woman shows her
proud face to all the world, while the
man goes yelled. In the presence of
woman of noble birth, men cover their
faces and heads altogether. The women
give the children what little instruc-
ton they have and train them to re-
spect and obey them.
Bullied and worried by his women
folk, the Tuareg has no liberty at all.
All the goods, tents, camels and clothes
are the women's property. The stick
he carries and the great wooden box
into which he puts what his wife suf-
fers him to have are all the man
possesses and all he retains If for some
reason his wife chooses to divorce him.
In Chat, when a man goes out after
sunset he Is usually followed by
negro servant, sent by his wife to dog
bis steps, and woe to him If he forgets
himself or comes home too late! He
Will md the door shut and must count
himself lucky if he Is not put onto the
street altogether.
The young man who, in spite Of all
this, wants to marry must pay heavy
sum for the bride, to obtain which he
Is obliged to look for other means than
his usual work of rearing camels or
carrying goods for the Arab trader.
Thus he is forced into taking part in
one of the yearly rhazzias.
The women decide when the right
moment has come, and the men sally
forth against some luckless caravan or
to the rich highlands of Tibesti. These
senseless raids have destroyed many a
fertile oasis, and have accelerated the
final disappearance of trans-Saharan
trade.-From a Bulletin of the Nation
