MosLEM ETIQUETTE.
Always BE In Good HumOr and Talk
Pleasant Things.

Always BE In Good HumOF and Talk
Pleasant Things.
Here are some Interesting Mussel-
man injunctlons of conviviality, says
the London Lancet. The honor Of be-
ing served first belongs to the Invited
guest who is in the possession of any
high title or who has in any way or
sphere distinguished himself. If the
host himself is the oldest in the com.
pany or has any high decoration of
merit, he must first begin the meal
without delay In order not to let the
others unduly wait. 1t shows bad up
bringing to be In melancholy mood at
table or to speak Of dAsagreeable things
or to engage in inappropriate discus
sions on matters Of religious piety.
Foremost Of all, one must always be in
good humOr and talk of pleasant
things, as did the prophet himself.
You must always help yourself from
the side Of the dish nearest to you and
never try to find out the best bits,
which ought to be left for other guests.
If one Of the invited has not much ap-
petite, you must ask him up to three
times with some kind chosen words to
partake Of the meals. A longer insist
ence would cause ennui and would be
most inappropriate. You must never
stop eating before others, because in
doing so you will embarrass them and
cause them to finish quickly in lmitat-
ing you.
Never eat gluttonously, but also new
er attempt to conceal your good appe-
tite. Always eat little by little. Exag-
gerated compliments are always mis-
placed. The hosts duty Is to make his
guests feel as comfortable as possible
encouraging the timid and shy. 1t Is
contrary to good taste to address and
to fix the attention Of a guest when he
Is eating. Even If the host is not &C
customed to eat much he must always
try not to finish before others. Should
any dish be forbidden to him by his
medical attendant he certainly must
not partake of it, but must at the same
tire excuse himself before his guests
1t is absolutely necessary to avoid
every movement or gesture which Ii
apt to create disgust.
