Cafes in Cairo.

No greater contrast can be imagined
than that between European and .
native oafs in Cairo. In the one there
are the stereotyped wait, esses, saloon.
and the inevitable band of Bohemian
musicians OF both sexes. with the equally
inevitable little girl, whose childish
naioete forms one Of the great attrac-
tions.
Here poor beer is dispensed to the
tune of poor music from z. P. N. to o.
2 A. NJ. till the fiddlers are ready to
drop. the little girl spasmodically falls
asleep and wakes, by fits and starts,
and the wearied audience lounge slow
ly home, wondering why on earth they
waste seven or eight hours day in
such places, and yet return to them
again. hike the needle to the north.
Frosa shese haunts The ~tIaveler. Of
course. gains no idea OF Oriental life
Nor is he any better off when his drago-
man takes him to the purlieus of the
Rosetta Gardens, and exhibits the
squalid haunts where the mongrel
population of ths town and its criminal
classes smoke opium or hashish. As
we'll might one exhibit the dcns of
Whitechapel eed round about the
Tower rs criterion of English life in
London.
The Arab cafe is q very different
affair. 1t must lie looked for in the
quarters toward the citadel or Boulak.
or better still, in the towns of the Delta
in Rosetta, Damiettah, Mansourrah
