RELICS OF ANCIENT HISTORY

Records of the Canaanites' Appeal for Help
Against Invading Israeiites.
The contents of that wonderful treas
ury of antique records discovered In
1887 by peasant woman near the
ruins of the ancient Arsinoe in upper
Egypt have now been laid before the
public in Maj. Conder's work on the
Tel Amarna tablets, comprising a
translation of the text, with introduc-
ton and notes, says London Table.
Inscribed on clay tablets, subsequent
ly baked into brick and written in
Aramaic, the ancient language of
Syria, in cuneiform characters, we
have here nothing less than series of
dispatches sent to the Egyptian for
eign Office about 1850 B. C. from the
protected or tributary kings of Canaan,
imploring assistance against various
invasions. The most interesting are
the letters from the king of Jerusalem
and other chiefs of southern Palestine,
for in them we can trace the dis
may and alarm created by the ad-
vance of Joshua and the Hebrews,
called "Abiri." and people of the
desert" very striking passage oc-
ours in one of the dispatches to the
fugitive monarch, apparently after the
battle of Ajalor, in which, seeking, as
it were, TO apologize for his defeat, he
speaks of the leaders of the enemy as
''sorcerers, doubtless an allusion to
the miracles of Joshua. The date OF
the exodus is also shifted back to that
assumed by earlier Biblical exponents,
while the contrary theory OF DIR.
Brugsch. too hastily accepted as con-
clusively established, is overthrown.

Aluminium Is gaining place among
industrial metals. Lately there has
appeared in the show windows of fancy
stores variety of articles made from
aluminium. In appearance these goods
are little, if any, inferior to silver arti-
cles, and they are less liable to tarnish
from the action of sulphur gases. The
metal is well adapted for numerous
things in common use, such as pocket
match safes, cigar cases, pencil cases,
and even watch cases. 1t will be more
and more used for these and other pur-
poses as time advances. One of the
disabilities that has prevented its more
rapid introduction into various in
dustries has been the lack of suitable
soldiers for joining it after it has been
reduced to required forms. According
to an article in the Engin eering Maga-
zine, however, several recipes for
soldiers for aluminium working have
lately been brought out, which prom
Use to be of great value to the various
trades in which aluminium finds use.

An Expert.n oninion.

Our readers have doubtless noticed
the numerous discussions by the scien-
lists and hygienists as to the relative
value of the various baking powders. A
careful sitting of the evidence leaves no
doubt as TO the superiority of the Royal
Baking Powder in purity, wholesome
ness and strength, from a scientific
standpoint. An opinion, however, that
will have perhaps greater influence
with our practical housekeepers, is that
given by Marion Harland, the we'll
known and popular writer, upon mat
ters pertaining to the science of domes-
tic economy, Of housekeeping, and of
home cooking. In letter published in
the Philadelphia Ladies' Home Journal,
this writer says:
''I regard the Royal Baking Powder
as the best manufactured and in the
market, so far as have any experience
in the use of such compounds. Since the
Introduction of it into my kitchen, /
have used no other in making biscuits,
cakes, etc, and have entirely discarded
for such purposes the homemade COM
bination of one-third soda, two-thirds
cream of tartar.
Every box has been in perfect condi-
ton when it came into my hands, and
the contents have given complete salts
faction 1t is an act of simple justice,
and also a pleasure, to recommend it
unqualifedly to American housewives.
MARION HARLAND."

The rroad of Our Age.

The trend of our age in theology, as
in politics, literature. science and art,
is toward the concrete rather than the
abstrect-toward helpfulness- 1t TENDS
to percolate down from theory into
practice. And this tendency contains
the promise and potency OF union. All
schools of religious thought are pretty
well agreed already that love and
righteousness are the supreme traits In
Divine and in human character; that
sacrifice is the universal law OF high
existence; that service is the common
and impera tive duty Of all life; that
the redemption and idealization OIL so
ciety is the goal to be run Tor, ana ena'
absolute trust in God and the conse-
ouent hope of immortality are the con-
summate virtues This is not step, 1t
is a stride forward. Calico was right
the world does move.-St Louis Re
public.

wholesomeness. (See u. S. Govt Reports.) No other

The Baking Powders being offered in this
vicinity with the statement that they as good as

composed of alum and detrimental to health
The official chemists Of the United States and Can
ada, State analysts municipal boards of health and
physicians indorse the great qualities of the Royal
