Marriage in Turkey.
I have talked with many Turkish, brides, received many confidences, and the whole question of marriage in Turkey has always interested me immensely. The first Turkish bride I ever met, long years ago, had never seen. her husband before marriage, and detested him. from the first. There is noth- ing the datter with him," she ad mitted. "except that I don't like him." Ultimately she managed to escape, married a man of her own choice, and was twenty times more unhappy. Another bride told me that, as a great favour, she was allowed to see her future husbsod and has regretted it ever since. "The dreadful imprudence seems to have robbed life of all its ro- mance !" Yet one more confes- sion! "I peeped through the lattice- window to look at bini as he 'walk- ed past, Quite an uninteresting little man, but he was my fate,” and I might have been given' something worse." But, at her wedding, I found a tall and hand-i some bridegroom. "What does
this mean?" I asked. "What has happened?" And she answered, quite calmly:-"I must have look- ed out at the wrong man.”—Miss Grace Ellison in An English- woman in Augera.
