could understand her grlefl And how often
in Egypt it was the wife who influenced her
husbands attitude 70 the godsl
And the high priest had frequently seen
Hebrew men and women worshiping de-
youtlv in the sanctuaries of Egypt. Even If
Mesu should succeed in persuading then to
acknowledge one God, he, the experienced
old man, foresaw with certainty that they
would ere long turn away from the invisible
Spirit who must ever remain remote and un-
real to their apprehension, and flock back
in hundreds to the gods they could UNDER
stand
Now Egypt was threatened with the loss
of the tilers and brickmakers she so greatly
needed Still Ruie believed he could lure
them back.
'sWhen kind words will DO the work let
sword and bow lie idle,'' he had said to his
deputy, Bale, who had urged that the frgi-
tiVes should be pursued and slain. I'VE have
more corpses than enough already; what we
lack are workers. Let us try to keep our
hold on what we are 50 likely to lose"
And this milder counsel had been quits
after the heart of Pharaoh, who had had
enough of lamentation, and who would have
thought it less rash to go unarmed into q
lions cage than to defy the terrible Hebrew
any further.
So he had turned deaf ear to the incite-
ments of the second prophet, whose decisive
and energetic nature had an influence all
the more powerful as his own was irresolute,
and had approved old Rules proposal that
Joshua, the man Of war, should be sent to
his people to treat with them in Pharaoh's
name-a plan which had Gained his fears
and inspired him with new hopes.
Bale himself had at last agreed to this
suggestion. 1t gave him further chance
OF undermining the throne he hoped to
overthrow, and if once the Hebrews were re-
established in the land Prince Siptah, in
whose eyes no punishment was too severe
for the Hebrews, who hated him, might
very probably seize the scepter Of the
cowardly Menephtah. But first the fugi-
tives must be stopped, and for this Joshua
was the right man. No one, Bale thought,
was better fitted to WIN the confidence Of an
unsuspicious soldier than Pharaoh himself
and his royal wife.
The old high priest was on this point Of
the same opinion, although he had nothing
to do with the conspiracy; and thus the
sovereigns had determined to interrupt the
lamentations for the dead and themselves
speak with the Hebrew.
Joshua fell on his face before their feet.
and when he rose the Kings weary face was
bent on him, sadly indeed, but graciouslY,
The father who had lost his first born son
had, according to custom, sacrificed his hair
and beard to the razor. They had formerly
framed his face in glossy black, but near
20 years of anxious rule had turned them
gray, and his figure had lost its upright
bearing and had q languid, senile stoop,
though he was scarcely past so. His regus
lar features were still handsome and thers
was something pathetic in their melancholy
softness, evidently incapable Of any severe

A POLISH BOYS AMBITION.

One Young Hopeful Who Knows a Good
~ Thing When He Secs Ii.
Detroit Sunday News.l
The hush of obedient silence was on the
assembled children of a school in Polack-
town at its fag-raising the other day. The
rotund form of Aid. Amos arising digni-
fedly on the platform was an inspiration
to respect from the Polish Juveniles. who
are cold strangers to much Of the English
or German tongues or modes Of thought.
The generous Alderman glibly advised
the urchins of Northern European extrac-
tion to study hard and acquire education,
so that they would not be obliged ito toll at
the commonest manual labor for compare
lively small pay. The world of letters was

hope, ambition, gratitude or fear, devotion
or hatred, Joshua saw to-day only bowed
heads and downcast looks.
Bale alone, the second prophet of Anon,
seemed untouched by sorrow or the terrors
OF the night and the enervating influences
of the day, for he greeted the captain In the
ante-chamber as frankly and cheerfully as
ever, and assured him, though in an under
tone, that no one dreamed Of calling him to
account for the sins OF his people. But
when the Hebrew, of his own free will, ac-
knowledged that at the moment when he
was sent for by the King he was in the act
of going to the superior captains Of the
army to beseech them to release him from
his service, the priest interrupted him to
remind him of the debt of gratitude which
he (Baie) owed to him. And he declared
that for his part he would do his utmost to
keep him with the army and to prove to
him that an Egyptian knew how to honor
faithful service without respect of persons
or considerations of birth, nay, even against
Pharaoh's will; and of this he would pres
emily speak with him in secret.
Bnt the Hebrew had no time to reiterate
his purpose, for the head chamberlain in

Pharaoh awaited him in the smaller re-
ception hall, adjoining the royal apart
ments. It was a noble room. and looked
more spacious to-day than when, as usual,
it was filled with a crowd. Only few cour-
tiers and priests, with some Of the Queens
ladies. formed a small group, all in deep
mourning, round the throne; opposite the
King, squatting in circle on the ground,
were the Kings councillors and interpreters,
wearing each bis ostrich plume.
All wore badges of mourning. and the
monotonous chant of the wailing women,
broken now and then by loud, shrill, trem-
ulous outcry, came pealing out from the
inner rooms and found its way to the great
hall. token that death had claimed vic
tim even in the palace.
The King and Queen sat on couch under
a canopy Of black; the throne itself was of
ivory and gold. Instead of their splendid
state attire they were clad in dark robes,
and the royal wife and mother, who bewailed
her first-born, leaned motionless and with
downcast head against her husbands shoul-
der.
Pharaoh, too, kept his eyes fixed on the
ground, as if lost in dream. The scepter
had fallen from his hand and lay in his lap.
The Queen had been torn from the corpse
of her son, which was now given over to the
embalmers, and it was not till she entered
the audience hall that she had been able
to control her tears. But she had not
thought of resistance, for the unrelenting
ceremonial of court life made the Queens
presence indispensable at any audience of
high Importance. And to-day of all days
she certainly would fain have escaped,
but that Pharaoh had commanded her
to appear. She knew what counsel was to
be taken, and approved of it beforehand,
for she was wholly possessed Of her dread Of
the power Of Mesu, the Hebrew, called by
his own people Moses, and Of his God, who
