EJfendi! is all you can understand ; it means gentleman ; most noble, exalted, and honorable sir, in the present case. Of course you must pay a few piasters for the pleasure of heaving yourself called Ef- fendi ; it sounds so Oriental, and makes one feel so Turkish. But this is only the first gang ; you have only fought your 132 A CRUSADE IN THE EAST.
way through it with small change to start up a still more determined gang a little below. Whole platoons of old wo- men and young, ragged boys an...d decrepit men, on either side of the narrow street, attack you with Effendi ! Effendi ! and sublimest Effendi, ranging from the most dulcet soprano to the most importunate falsetto. You walk on, under the con- viction that it would be impossible to relieve all this misery. * Suddenly a voice of thrilling remonstrance reaches your ear ; it is so desperate in its appeals, so irresistibly imploring, and seems to say so plainly, For God's sake, Effendi, don't see a fellow-creature starve ; do save a human life by dropping half a piaster here just what would buy you one cigar ; give it and make a poor wretch happy for a day that your conscience smites you, and you feel that it would be a sin to purchase a momentary pleasure with what would give a day's relief to a fellow-creature so down goes the half piaster.
