Excerpt from Scenes From Life in Cairo: A Glimpse Behind the Curtain T was a hot afternoon in spring, and the apart ments of a large house in a retired and Old fashioned street in Cairo were as quiet as they usually were when summer had set in with its burning sceptre. The natives of the land are not quite insensible to the hot winds of spring, and if a very strong or long-con tinned one blows, even a sturdy peasant, trudging cheerfully under a heavy burden in the sun, will give a sort of puff or sigh Of relief, as she casts aside her basket or bundle, and sits down in the shade re marking, The world is hot to-day! By the Prophet, the world is hot! About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
