A BEDOUIN MOTHER AND CHILD 



The father of this little nomad may be a warlike bandit with a cloudy notion of property rights 

 and other details of the civilized code; his mother a simple daughter of the desert with a childish 

 curiosity and fondness for gaudy trinkets, but her babe has the divine heritage of mother love as truly 

 as the most fortunate child of our own land.
