Social Life Of Ancient Egyptians.

Guests who were invited to a private
house rode thither In their chariots or in
sedan chairs carried by their servants,
and like those now used In India and
elsewhere. If the day was hot the cha
riot or sedan chair was furnished with an
umbrella to keep eff the sun. An
Egyptian gentleman often drove his own
chariot, but servants attended him to
help him to alight and to take charge of
his team and chariot. While they were
awaiting the announcement of dinner
music was provided, and the principal
/ features of the house were pointed out
to the guests and, as with us, good man.
ners constrained them to praise all they
saw, and especially any curios shown to
them. If visitors desired to wash their
feet or hands before dinner, servants at
tended on them, and in palaces the water
pitcher and basin were of gold. Serv.
ants also, as sign of welcome, poured
from an alabaster or metal box sweet
ointment upon the heads of the visitors
and brought garlands of flowers. To
each guest was also given a lotus flower,
which he held in his hand while he re.
manned in the hosts house. Wine was
then brought round and both ladies and
men partook of it, using cups of gold,
silver OF porcelain. The poor contented
themselves with cups Of earthenware OF
of some cheap metal.
While the guests were being enter,
tanned with music and dancing, Dime,
was being prepared, the meats including
beef, goats flesh and venison; whiis
ducks, geese, teal, quail and other birds
were also provided. Mutton was moi
eaten. Great quantities of fish and veg,
I eGables were also served, the feast being
exceedingly plentiful, and the dishes
very various. Each dish was placed il
the center of the table, and the guests
dipped pieces Of bread into it. When
the host gave the sign, 1t was removed
and another introduced. The poor could
not, of course, secure such abundance as
this, but lived largely on vegetables
milk, cheese and fruit. At q later period
the Egyptians love of the table seems te
have increased, so that the mode of life
of the higher classes was described as
ever luxurious and even profigate.-A.
Inkersley in San Francisco Chronicle.
