The Secret of the Pyramids.

There is, in Mr.. Proctor's opinion, no
other explanation Of the great pyramid
which even comes near to giving com
mon sense Interpretation OF the com.
bined Astronomical and sepulchral char
acter Of the ediIice. 1t Is certain, on
the one hand, that the building was
meant for astronc inical observation, 1t is
equally certain that it was intended for
a tomb; that it was closed in very soon
after the death of the king for whom 1t
was built, so that its astronomical aim
and value must have related to him alone.
As an astronomical structure, designed
to afford facilities for a gigantic horo-
scope for Cheops, and for him only, the
author of these essays can well under
stand its purport, marvellous as is the
vast expenditure Of care, industry and
treasure lavished upon its creation.
Granted full faith in astrology we
know there was such faith in ancient
Egypt and Chaldea--it may well have
seemed worth its cost to build even such
an edifice us the great pyramids; just as,
granted the ideas Of the Egyptians about
burial, we can understand the erection
Of such mighty mass for the purpose OF
entombment--can understand, indeed,
everything about 1t except its special as
Economical character.

And voices long since hushed our cham0ers MI

And every trace DO hidden from the eye,
But all the agony is closed within,
And wounds thus healed are never known 70 die,

Given to the needy without pomp or pride;
Sooner or later they reap their reward
Who pass not over TO the other side.
