He paused and beamed upon the watchful Mahommed, who, if he did not understand all that had been said, was in no difficulty as to the drift and meaning of the story. "Aiwa, effendi," he urged impatiently. "It is a long ride to the Etl Tree, and the day is far spent." "Inshallah, you shall hear, my turtle-dove!

And I sit holding my sides, for we're only two white men and forty "friendlies" altogether, and two revolvers among us; and I've got the two! And they listen to his blarneying, and say, "Aiwa, Saadat! aiwa, Saadat!" as if he had an army of fifty thousand behind him.
You called for a popular song or recitation and you got it, and as many more as you liked to ask for. One of these talented ladies used to give a recitation which became a permanent feature of her programme in Egypt. She would come to the front of the stage and say confidentially to the audience, "Do you know Lizzie 'Arris?" And back would come a mighty bellow, "Aiwa!"

It was a liberal education to watch a British N.C.O. working with the gang of natives under his command. Usually his entire vocabulary of Arabic consisted of about ten words, of which the following are a fair sample: Aiwa Yes. La No. Quais Good. Mush quais No good. Igri! Quickly! Imshi! Clear out! Ta-ala henna Come here.
"Aiwa, aiwa," said the disregarded prophet "he drink water" and all hands pulled madly to get the boat back to the nearest side of course the side from which it had started. Those who have studied the diplomatic wiles of our hero, are convinced that he had himself opened the sea-cocks or taken what other steps were necessary to scuttle his craft and save his honour.
