The Turkish UniformThe Turkish uniform, under indirect German influence, has been greatly modified during the past five years, writes Alexander Aaronsohn in tie Atlantic Monthly. It is of khaki —a greener khaki than the British army, and of conventional European cut. • Spiral puttees and good boots arc provided; the only peculiar feature *is the headgear—a curious, uncouth-looking combination of the turban and the German helmet, devised by Enver Pasha to combine religion and practicality, and called in his honor enverish. (With commendable thrift, Enver patented iiis invention, and it is rumored that he has drawn a comfortable fortune from its sale.)
