My Lady's Satchel.

Knowing how much you are inter ested m the "Palestine Exploration Society" and its work, I send you th® following extract s— OAMPISG IN PALESTINE. la the afternoon, when we came back from a walk, we saw a stir m the camp, A negro held an ass by the kitchen door, and two Arabs with their longs matchlocks were hankering beside him. Oar cook, Yuauf, was bowing as low as his fat carcase would let him to somebody invisible m our tent. It argued a distinguished visitor. But we were scarcely prepared for a woman. As we got near, a brown faced, black eyed Bed*wee matron, m a long loose robe of blue linen, carer forward to greet us, and m her lap a heap of cucumbers, onions and melons, Like Abigail, she brought gifts, She was the wife of Ali Dial, a woman of 35 or 40 years of age, clean, genial, and* 1 wiselike." She stroked my wife'd chin several tinus and kissed her re peatedly, She wasunveiled, and spoke freely to myself. Apologising for her husband's absence, she gave us an in vitation to a feast that same evening. We begged to be allowtd to postpone it till to morrow. "We are Natare nes," I said, " and this is the day of oar Lord." I c mnot tell whether she Understood, but she smiled prettily and granted our request. • She would send messages for us at the propar hour.' And 80 she mounted her ass and rode aw&y. The honest freedom of thi* woman was very singular m that Mos* !em world ; but it was not the only proof we found among the Bedouin of how much the laws of Mohammed haw spoiled the old Arabian manners. At we were returning from our climb of Mount Nebo, which occupied most of Monday, sod were stilt some distance fromthe citnp, we saw, approaching the litter from soother direction, t very ■isgolsr procession, A young man m SVinkiih riding drees was leading a weary horse; there followed a veiled maiden on a mule, and then an old man with • dab. It was even more romantic thin It seemed. Odr friend, tho Rev Mr Sjkes/ 1 of Es-Salt, who has held for pome yetra ifctt furthest outpost of Christendom towards the desert, had been at Medeba with the Knimakara and some soldiers to rescue one man who had abducted her. The old man with the dab was her undo. They had found her , and unwilling to risk a night m Medebt, unable to retard to Es~S.»lt tnd knowing we were m the neighbour hood* they sought oar teats for shelter. The benefit was still more ours. We welcomed the arrival of a friend with n competent Arab tongue, and engaged him to go with us to the "Adw»r>." Jaet at sunset there arrived four mounted messengers with the word that all things were now ready. So making our retinue as imposing as we could, we rode over th« hill and entered the Arab camp just as the stars were visible. We were welcomed with a great noise, the men firing their flintlocks In the air, while the dogs barked «nd the children and women cried out. At the chief's tent, which generally stands on the right of the entrance to the boreeehoe ctmp, we wsr» helped to dismount by All's two ions, and led into the outer guest chtmber, where they set us very com fortably upon pillows on the ground, a young chief on either side, md some of the older man rounJ a email fire at the mouth of the tent. Our friend, the chief's wife, welcomed ua and then vanished. Behind us, separated only by a goat'a-hair curtain, was the women's compartment of the tent, and from this she talked to us throughout the meal For the first coarse there was placed on the ground m front of us a huge round tray about 3fc m diameter, on which was heaped a mountain of rice. A little digital Investigation revealed another com patient. It was a sbepp cooked whole mod then torn, to pieces', none too small for the method of consumption. We used as plates the thin scones of the camp-,' for-apoona and forks our fingers. The young chiefs, to show honour to ibe only lady of the party, groped among the rice and handed her from time to time a choice morsel of mutton. Then we had sausages—the only ones I ever saw that deserved to be called ideal, for the skin of each was a vine leaf and the contents raisins and rice. Surely, if they eat Bauaagea m para dise, these are they ! The third course was a huge water melon, to accompany which aeveral mahogany babies were rolled under the curtain from the apart ment for our admiration: The young chiefs behaved very prettily with these babies; they were their own boys, Between each course bowls of freah water from the brook outside were passed round for the washing of our bands, and after the last came the coffee and cigarettes. With that curierat etiquette—so significant of the barbaric East—by which, m order to disarm suspicion as to the most poison able dish of the feast", the host lets hi* guest see every stage of the aaannfac tare of his coftee; the men at the tent door, ever since we entered, had been roasting the beans, bruising them, and brewing the beverage, They gave us also the festal draught of cinnamon, while we supplied, to their delight, the cigarettes.—Good Words,
