They hide their aquiline features behind a black or dark blue veil that leaves nothing visible but their bright eyes. "Their women are very good looking, look-ing, though among the richer classes beauty Is measured by ' weight and young girls are subjected1 to a fatten-' Ing process something like that of the Christmas turkey.
