THE OLDEST WORK OF FICTION

The oldest work of fiction extant is thought to be "The Tale of Two Broth ers," written 3,20O years ago by the Theban scribe Enana, librarian of the palace of King Menepthan, the sup posed Pharaoh of the Exodus. The tale, it appears, was written for the entertainment of the crown prince, who subsequently, resigned as Set II. His name appears in two places in the manuscript, probably the only sur viving autograph signature of an Egyptian king. This piece of antique fiction, written on nineteen sheets of papyrus in bold hieratic hand, was purchased in Italy by Mime. D'Orbiney who sold it in 1857 to the authorities of the British museum, where it is now known as the D'Orbiney papyrus.- Argonaut, (San Francisco). ..
