suLTAn's DINNER IS EXPENSIVE.
It Costs Turkeys Ruler 5000 Every


Day.
The Sultan of Turkeys dinner costs
him $4,000 a day.
The table is of silver, and 1t is said
10 be the most exquisite specimen of
the silversmith's art that the world
contains.
The dishes are brought in uron the
heads of iublakiars, or cooks assist
ants, and each dish is covered and
sealed with the royal seal. There are
always fifty or more dishes. and all
are set before the sultan at the same
time. He eats. usually, from about
six.
Though the sultan is himself
total abstainer, the finest vintage
wines are always offered to such
guests as dine at the palace.
Every dish the ruler partakes Of Is
first tasted in the kitchen by the grand
vizier lest it be poisoned, and it is
Immediately thereafter that its seal
ing takes place Always, before he
can fall to on a dish, the sultan must
break its seal.
1t is not because he eats $4,000
worth of food himself that the sultan's
dinner bill is so expensive. He eats,
as matter of fact, no more than a
half dollars worth. But the guests
and retainers who dine at his expense
number daily several thousand.
