animals, ENTHUSIASTICALLY when
they found themselves free, few in
every direction, and the Egyptians
were SO much afraid of hurting them,
that they turned and ran home ~
This story amused Nep and the
poodle so much that there was regu-
lar bow WOW, so that Sister Grace had
to stop, and the children didn't know
what to make oft.
g But, come, Castor" said old Tib,
tell us about the other gods"
Well, said Castor, the sun and
the moon were the greatest, and they
thought that whenever these came
down to the earth, they took up their
abode In bull and a COW. They
would know which one, by star on
the. forehead, so they searched the
country until they found the right
one, brought it to the grand temple,
had hundreds of priests to attend it,
and draped it off with wreaths of flow
ers and ribbons. The bull they called
Osiris, and the COW, Isis, each had its
own temple. When one died they
said it was because the god was tired
of living in it, and had gone into
another; so they made mummy of it,
put the whole country in mourning,
and began the search for the new one.
when they wanted anything, they
prayed to Osiris or Isis, according to
thecircumstances but they said that,
like all other parents, their only child
had more influence with them than
any one else had, so if they did not at
once get what they wanted, they went
off to the temple provided for the
sacred calf, whom they named Apis,
and begged it to intercede with its
father and mother for them. IF you
remember, lib, Miss Grace was read
ing from that great book on the table
yonder, about some people that God
was bringing away from this very
Egypt, and stopped them to tell them
what to do; and while .One of their
captains was up ON the mountain to
hear what was to be done, the people
down below obliged the other to make
them little calf out of their melted
earrings and bracelets. It was Apis
| they wished to worship" tA
Castor's interesting story was cut
short by the evening prayer bell, the
signal for going to bed; SO the four
| footed party were taken off to their
peculiar quarters, after promise from
the travelled dog to tell them more OF
his adventures at some, other time.
But to this hour, the children can not
imagine what it was in those animals
that evening that they acted SO
strangely and made such a barking.
