AFTER DINNER.

Persons who suffer from Indigestion

of these organs, prOmOts tiie natural

The Value of Alaska.

Senator Ingalls,, of Kansas, is au-
thority for the ruthless and sweeping
condemnation of Alaska as ''the most
worthless territorial acquisition any
government was ever afflicted will"
le is certain to those who know much
about Alaska that 1t is not nearly the
worthless territorial acquisition" that
he brands 1t. In the first place, Alaska
is very large-larger than all that terri
tory which forty years ago was known
as the "Great American Desert, :"
whereof the State of Kansas is part,
and forty years ago not esteemed more
highly than the Senator now holds
Alaska. In the second place, Alaska
has very valuable fisheries of salmon,
cod, halibut and king salmon, as yet
but little developed, but enough to in
dicate that in few years. with a suit
able government for that territory, they
will be worth as much as those of New
FOundland and Nova Scotia, both for
food supply and the creation of a mer-
camille marine on the American coast
of the Pacific. In the third place
Alaska is covered in many parts with
the best forests in the world.
Alaska has mines of gold, copper,
iron and coal, not much developed as
yet, but enough to encourage the hope
that. after the gold mines south of
them in our country shall be exhausted
Alaska will become one of the greatest
producers of this metal In the world.
Its climate is on the coast less rigOr-
Gus than that of Newfoundland, or
Sweden, or Norway, or the Baltic coast
of Russia. There are good reasons for
the belief that wheat can be made a
profitable crop IN parts of the Yukon
valley. And the cedarS of Alaska are
better ard infinitely more inexhaust-
able than the famed cedars of Lebanon.
Such country, covering as it does an
area of more than half a million square
miles. having long coast line, good
harbors, many habitable islands, mines
of the precious and useful metals.
forests without end, fisheries and great
rivers, albeit its depths are as yet un-
explored, is not to be condemned out
of hand as the Kansas Senator con-
demns it.

Egyptian and Assyri2n.

In the Egyptian and AsSyrian gall
iery at the British Museum, Soudan,
and in close contiguity to the Hittite
monuments and the bronze gates of
ShalmaneSer, there has Just been placed
an object of considerable interest-a
bronze doorstep from the great temple
of E Saggil, at BorShippa, suburb or
division of Babylon. The doorstep not
only has inscribed on it the name of
Nebuchadnezzar, but also mentions his
health or restoration to health, The
doorstep may thus have been vOtive
offering. The thought may suggest
itself whether the inscription on the
doorstep has any relation to the mad
ness of Nebucadnezzar spoken of in the
very we'll known words of the fourth
chapter of Daniel, which record how
the renowned monarch, after looking
with pride on the great Babylon which
he had built, was in the ''same hour
driven from among men, and did eat
grass as oxen, and his body was wet
with the dewS of heaven, till his hair
was grown like eagles feathers, and
his nails like birds claws" 1t would

Identification. The temple of E'Sag-
gil, to which the doorstep pertained,
was a famous seat of Babylonian idola-
try, and remained such until the time
of Nabonidas, the last Babylonian
king, The dedication of the doorstep
would thus scarcely be consistent with
Nebucadnezzar's worshipping the God
of Israel, as mentioned in Daniel, iv,
34-37.
