TUNISIAN MAIDENS OE HIGH RANK 



The girl to the right is Mabrucka, the daughter of my host at Foumtatahouine, Moham- 

 med-Es-Seghir, Cadhi of Djebel-El-Abiodth ; the other her chum. A photograph of a girl 

 of this class is very rare, as it is usually only those who have no social position to lose who 

 will consent to pose for a picture. In this case, the young ladies being very sure of their 

 place in society, made an exception in honor of my visit.
