CARICATURE IN OLDEN TIMES.
The Ancient Egyptian by No Means
Devoid of Humor

The Ancient Egyptian by No Means
Devoid of Humor
Caricature was known from a very
early period, little broad sometimes
and full of satire, but telling and origi-
nal. In papyrus of the nineteenth
dynasty, now in the Turin Museum,
amusing scenes are depicted in the love
affairs of a shaven priest and a song
stress of the Temple of Ammon; while
in the same papyrus are sketched comic
groups of animal life. In the first scene
a lion, a crocodile, and an ape are giving
a vocal and instrumental concert. Next
comes an ass, dressed, armed, and scep-
tired like Pharaoh; with majestic swag-
ger, he receives the gifts presented to
him by cat of high degree, to whom
a bull acts as proud conductor. A lion
and gazelle are playing at draughts,
hippopotamus is perched in a tree, and
hawk has climbed into the tree by
means of ladder and tries to dislodge
him. A Pharaoh in the shape of a rat,
drawn in chariot by prancing gray
hounds, is proceeding to storm fortress
garrisoned by cats, the latter having no
arms but teeth and claws, whereas the
rats have battle axes, shields, and bows
and arrows. The artists idea seems to
have been the defeat of the cats by the
animals upon which they prey; or, if we
look for a deeper meaning, the success
full revolt of the oppressed upon the OPP
pressor. In papyrus in the British
Museum flock of geese are being driven
by cat, and herd of goats by two
Of
the wolves is playing a double flute. A
drawing on tile in the New York
Museum represents quite in the Calde-
colt style) cat dressed as an Egyptian
lady of fashion, seated languidly in a
chair, slipping wine out of a small bowl,
and being famed and offered dainties
by an abject looking tom cat with his
tail between his legs. On the walls of a
tomb at Thebes belonging to priest of
Ammon the love of caricature is INDUCED
in, even in the sacred subject of a fu-
neral. One of the boats following in the
mournfuI procession across the Nile to
the sacred metropolis has grounded, and,
in being pushed off the bank, strikes a
smaller one laden with sacerdotal offer
ngs of cakes, fruit, etc. The table on
VIII .ch these dainties are arranged has
upset, and the good things are falling
like a hail storm on the heads of the
astonished rowers underneath. The
more we learn of the habits of the an
cent Egyptians the less we cherish the
old impression of their being a gloomy
people of serious character. Human
nature 5000 years ago was much the
came as it is to-day, altered simply by
climate and custom, and the oldest
papyrus in the world, now in the
National Library in Paris, written 1850
B. c., contains series of maxims which
we of to day might take to heart.

The Ocean Gables of the World.

According to the latest report of the
International Bureau of Telegraph Ad-
ministrations, the submarine telegraph
system of the world consists of 1870, 070
nautical miles of cable Government
administrations own 10, 524 miles, while
107, SAG are the property of private COM
panies. The total cost of these cables is
in the neighborhood of 5000, 200, 900.
The largest owner of submarine cables
is the Eastern Telegraph Company, whose
system covers the ground from England
to India, and comprises 81, $50 miles of
cable. The Eastern Extension, which
exploits the far East, has 12,959 miles
more. Early in last year the system of
West African cables, which started from
Cadiz only six years ago, was completed
to Cape Town, so that the dark conti-
nent is now completely encircled by sub
marine telegraph, touching at numerous
points along the coast More than
1900 miles of cable have been required
to do this, and several companies, with
more or less aid from the British, French,
Spanish, and Portuguese governments,
have participated in carrying out the
work.
The north Atlantic is spanned by no
less than eleven cables, all laid since
1870. though think not all are working
at the present time; five companies are
engaged in forwarding kilograms be-
tween North America and Europe, and
the total length of the cables owned by
them, including coast connections, is
over 10000 nautical miles. -[Herbert

NOT A POPULAR CURRENCY.
Why Gold Is Not Received at the Banks
without Delay.

Why Gold Is Not Received at the Banks
Without Delay
"Do you know that gold is the most
unwieldy of all the different kinds of
money now il circuation?" said
prominent Washington banker to re-
porter
"Why so?" was asked.
because it is not bankable without
careful scrutiny.
"How is that?"
"Simply this: Take a greenback, a
silver certificate, gold certificate, or q
national bank note to your bank, and it
is received and placed to your credit
without moments delay. Not so with
gold. A few days ago a gentleman
brought to our bank upward of S3 900
in gold of different denominations, and
was much provoked because we would
not receive it forthwith and give him
credit for the amount the faces of the
coin represented. This we could not do,
because the law requires that gold shall
be redeemed only at its actual value.
Coins carried in the pocket for any
length of time naturally lose something
in weight by abrasion-probably but a
fractional part of a cent on ten dollar
coin-but it is a loss nevertheless, and
therefore bankers can not give credit
for gold deposits until the coin shall
have been weighed.
SIN the case in point my friend took
his gold to the Treasury Department,
and was compelled to wait there nearly
an hour before he could get notes for it.
Every coin had to be passed through the
scales, and after the weighing process
had been completed three coins-two So
pieces and one $40 piece-were returned
to him as short in weight. Before re-
turning short weight coins the depart
ment stamps on the face of each cross.
The owner is left to either send the
coins to the United States mint for re-
demption or to again put them in circu-
lation. Eventually the coins with
crosses on their faces will go to the
mint and be redeemed at their actual
value In many instances there may
not be more than several cents shortage
on $50 worth of COIN Business men,
however, naturally object to the incon-
venience, and get rid of their gold as
soon as possible.

Calling the Animals.

A correspon lent recently asked the
Boston Transcript to explain the origin
and meaning of the ordinary calls used
by farmers in summoning their cattle,
horses, and sheep; and the inquiry has
elected some interesting responses.
The call Boss boss, to cattle, is pure
Latin, apparently, since the Latin for
"beef creature" is bo5. Itseems to have
been in use amymg English speaking
people for several generations, though
"boss" and "bossy" are more often
heard in America than in England.
The ordinary call for horses is "Co-
jock! co-jock!" 1t is explained that
many horses were formerly named
John, which, in peasant English, is
Jock. "Co Jock" then, simply means
"Come, john. 1t is said that the use
of the word Jockey, meaning rider
or driver of race horses, comes from the
frequency with which horses were once
named Jock, the word passing in time
from the animal to the rider.
One writer. in the Transcript Low
ever, insists that the commo lcst name
for a horse in America to day is Bill.
"You vi find, " he says, "ahorse named
Bill in every stable, and the country
pastures are full of O.d Bills, retired on
a pension of grass; but seldom is there
a Jack OF a Jock. Perhaps in the course
of time the horse call will be changed
to sCo-Bill!"
The call to sheep seems to vary a little
in different parts of the United States.
Throughout good part of the country
it sounds more like "Co-day! co-day!'
than ANYTHING else. Elsewhere, and
especially in some parts of New Eng
land, it is "Co-dan! co DAM" Often it
is "Co-nan!" and occasionally it is said
to be "Co-dar! co-dar!"
"Co-day" is derived by one authority
from "Come, Dick" Dick having been
a name as much in vogue for a male
sheep as Jock was for a horse. But
"Co-dan" clearly may come very easily
from Come, Man,. Nan or Nanny is
still a favorte name for a sheep, as
well as for a goat. "Co-dan" would
come by corruption from "Co-nan, :"
and day" from that, in order to
make it more explosive and easily Leard
at a distance.
"Co-dar" is said to be derived from
"Come, Darby by"-another name once
often used for sheep.
When the Western farmer goes out to
call his pigs-in that part of the country
the animals sometimes wander a long
way from home-he generally is not
content with calling pig! pig!"-a
sound which could not be heard very
far-but develops it into a shout by pro-
nouncing it "poo-ig! poo-is' The
necessity of producing sound that
will "carry" seems to explain this; but
one of the transcripts correspondents
says that "poo-ig" is d: rived from "poor
pig" and that he has often heard the
call PRONOUNCED in that way.
The call "Biddy! Biddy!" to hens and
chickens is not explained The diction-
aries say that "biddy" is a childish
name for hen; but where did the
child get the name? The other farm
yard calls, such as "Chick! chick!" to
the hens, Turk! turk!" to the turkeys,
and "Duck duck!" to the ducks, seem
to need no explanation.

of the orchestra, produced call at the
telephone; Pardon me, but the queen
is listening. Can't the rehearsal go on

Asphalt Covering.

In Germany water pipes are being
made of glass with asphalt covering, to
prevent fracture. 1t is claimed that
they give thorough protection against
m ,isture in the earth, against the action
of acids and alkalies, and that they can
not be penetrated by gases. 1t is also
believed that they will not become in-
crusted.

Observation-Disclosures.
And so Mr.. Belmont and Ruth Wills
son were wed. As matter of course
the event was the sensation of the
town, and there was no end to gossip
and small talk.
His sons heard the news, and didn't
they storm, and curse and howl with
rage? But they were impotent to
change the irrevocable.
Mr.. Belmont continued to decline.
Never was wife moro loyal and de-
voted than Ruth. During his last
days she was ever by his side, attend
ing to his wants. and striving to an
ticipate his every wish. The end soon
came, and one day large aSsemblage
of neighbors and townspeople gathered
at the Belmont mansion to pay their
last tribute of respect to the man they
had known so long and admired so
much.
The will was duly probated, and
Ruth Wilson Belmont found herself
in full possession of all her husbands
wealth except one dollar willed to each
of the migrate sons.

aught we know to the contrary, they
are yet living, in the full enjoyment of
the ample wealth they so curiously OBJ
tanned.
