AN ARAB CAMP AT THE FOOT OF MOUNT SINAI 



Given a coffee-pot, a coffee-grinder, a camel-dung fire, a narghile, some Persian tobacco, 

 and a live coal to keep it alight, and you have a men's club in almost any part of the Near

 milk of a desert goat forever after considers that the standard as a thirst-quencher.
