Ancient Memphis.

Memphis was one of the oldest of tho
worlds great cities. It was built on the
banks of the Nile when all Europe was n
savage wilderness, and its inhabitants bar
barians living in huts and caves. The
great city grew up under the rule of thu
Pharaohs to be a scene of busy trade, al
most as thickly populated as London or
New York. To-day its site can scarcely
be traced. But four thousand years ago
Memphis was a city of palaces and temples.
Pharaoh was lodged more splendidly than
Louis XIV, and Cheops provided himself
with the most magnificent of tombs. One
of the Memphian temples is thus described
He seemed to be in Memphis, his native
city and entering the temple of Isis, saw
it shining with the splendor of a thousand
lighted lamps; all the avenues of the
temple were crowded with people, and re-
sounded with the noise of the passing
throng." The inner shrine was supposed
to be the residence of the goddess. To
Memphis, perhaps, came Joseph, the gen
tie Jew, to become the ruler of the land.
There came his brethren and the Israeli
ties, to buy corn. Here the Jews passed
their four centuries of captivity from its
palaces they bore of the Jewels and gold
of the Egyptians; from its memorable
shore they SET out on their march from
the gates of Memphis the furious Pha-
raon followed with chariot and horse, to
perish in the treacherous sea.
Nowhere can be found more striking in
cidents than are connected with this desc
late narrow part of the shore of the Nile.
Moses, perhaps, floated in his basket near
by, and won his life with the smile of in
fancy, always irresistible. 1t was the scene
of the plaques, of the terrible darkness, of
the years of plenty and the years of want.
1t hourished in splendor and wealth for q
period that makes the ages of most cities
seem trivinl. New York is not more than
2o0 years old, London about 1900; Mem
phls hourished for more than 5000 years.
1t has passed away, but one of its labors
can never apparently perish. Cheops, one
Of the Memphian Kings, built the largest
OF the pyramids, and near it are several
Others not much less in size. A pyramid
was no doubt a royal tomb. Various ex-
plantations have been given of the origin
and purpose of these wonderful buildings.

ConfucIus and the chlnese.

The Chinese are supposed to form about
one-third of the population of the world.
and there is some ground for believing that
for the last 1000 years they have held
much the same numerical proportion to
tine entire human race. Yet 1t may be said
that there is but one ChinGnan who has
earned q worldwide reputation-one indi-
vidual who has been large enough to lift
himself above the millions of unknown,
unrecorded lives, end force himself on the
regard Of the Western World. He was not
a conqueror stamping his name on the ter
ror-srruck imagination of surrounding
tribes. He was not an inventor whose
memory is kept green by the gratitude of
those who daily enjoy the fruit of his
genius. He was not a poet uttering mems
best thoughts and deepest feelings for them
10 words more expressive than their Own.
He was not even a philosopher, or, if n
philosopher, his philosophy was on the
level of that of Benjamin Franklin. In
short, no ordinary avenue to fame seems to
have been open to him and yet, if mum
bers 90 for anything, what fame rivals that
of the man who, for twenty-three centur-
les, has been worshipped as all but divine
by nearly one-half of the world, and whose
words are regarded as canonical by a peo-
pie compared to whose exclusive jealousy
the Jewish eNclusiveneSs is latitudinarian?
The secret of his fame is mainly this: hat
he was the Chinaman of the Cinnamon,
the most conservative and ancestor-wOr-
Shipping individual of the most conserva-
tive and ancestor worshiping race. 1t was
by his work that the national tendencies
and popular instincts were recognized and
definitely fixed. 1t was he who formulat-
ed the relations of ruler and subject. 1t
was he who gave utterance to those max
fnNa n nnr1nnal Conduct u~hfnI t1n TIfn-
ese are justly proud of, though they do
not ~scrupulously observe them. Especially
it was he who gathered into Chinese canon
all the wisdom which had been tested by
previous generations, and so set the seal
of completeness on Chinese life and GUS
toms, so far as this can be lone by any man
or by any books.
