They exchanged gifts freely, but Itt compli­ ance with ft*sumptu­ ary law, they Were never allowed to give anything very elaborate. The re­ ceiver of a present which was judged too expensive had to offer It Up for auction, when It was knocked down to the highest bidder, and the money appropriated by the national treasurer of the period. Consequently, although the Romans continued to distribute their presents In great numbers', they had to coniine their offerings to ouch trifles no jars of olives, napkins, jel­ lied fishes, boxes of toothpicks, can­ dles, cloaks and eweetweufa.
