fhe Perfumes Used by the RgyptianA
The consumption Of essences must
have been enormous at the highest
tide of Egyptian splendor, for the
people were actually enjoined to per-
fume themselves on Fridays; corpses
were anointed with aromatic essence;
sherbets and sweetmeats were ia
vored with fine vegetable extracts;
perfumes filed the air in every we'll
TODD house, and saturated the letters
and presents which were constantly
being exchanged. The ladies bathed
in perfumed water, the men. used
scented oils for the hair, and both
made use Of red, yellow and green
soap.
During great festivals incense was
burned tin all the streets, SO that
even the poorest might be RECALLED
by the mere act of breathing. Nor
was there any lack of narcotics.
The mode Of preparing opium, in.
troduced from Syoot, in Upper
Egypt, was well known, aud the
Sultan Beybars promulgated several
edicts prohibiting the use of has.
heesh, a stupefying and intoxicating
preparation of Indian hemp. In
spite of the prophets prohibition,
the juice Of the grape continued to
be INDUCED in. Alcohol las it's
name indicates) is an Arab, discovery,
and heer-the favorite beverage Of
the ancient Egyptians-was also
brewed and drank under the Caliphs.
Many a jovial songs in praise of
wine was sung by Arab poets, and
in early times many Arabs would
by no means admit that the prophet
had forbidden its use. In an old
MS copy of Tha'alibi it is said, " The
prophet-may God bless him and
accept him-permitted wine and
mercifully allows us to strengthen
ourselves with it at our meals, and
to lift the veil of our cares and
sorrows."

Of the French, who are generally re-

illustration Of the extent to which
the natives carry their ideas Of cour-
