2 1 4 Bcdouhi Tribes of the Euphrates, [cu. xxv. and harclworkecl, doing all the labour of the camp : fetching wood and drawing water, setting and pulling down the tents, milking the ewes and shecamels, preparing the lehben, (a rather toilsome work,) and cooking the dinners. They live apart from the men, but are in no way shut up or placed under restraint. In the morning they all go out to gather wood for the day, taking a camel or a donkey with them ; and, whenever we have met them so employed, they have seemed in the highest possible spirits. They enjoy a good deal of society amongst themselves, going about together to each other's tents, and taking their children with them. They have, besides, the society of their male relations in the nearest degrees ; and their position is by no means one to be pitied. They do not seem to think of complaining of it. No people are so kind to children as the Bedouins are. The son of a Sheykh is nursed and played with and petted by the men in the Sheykh's tent all day long ; and children are never scolded or ill-used. Among the better l;)red Bedouins the boys are carefully brought up, and have very pretty manners. When quite young, and till they are three years old, however, they are kept dirty and ill-dressed, which gives them a slovenly appearance ; but this is done purposely, to preserve them from the evil eye. Later on they are as clean as most of their elders, which is not, perhaps, sayingmuch.
CH. XXV.] The Social Position of Women. 2 1 5 In mental qualities the women of the desert are far below the men, their rano-e of ideas bcinor extremely limited. Some few of them, however, get real influence over their husbands, and even throuo-h them over their tribes. In more than one Sheykh's tent, it is in the woman's half of it of the tribe are settled. that tlic politics
