WHAT IS A MUMMY



Some Egyptian Customs.
When a member of an Egyptian fam
lily died, all the relatives put ON mourn
ing and abstained from baths, wine and
delicacics &c all kinds from 40 to so
days, according to the rank of the per-
son deceased. Death in one respect put
an end to all distinctions that had pre-
vailed in life. and king and slave were
subject to the same law.
The 1ecord of the life of the deceased
had to be examined by a tribunal of AZ
judges before he could be given burial
with his ancestors. II the deeds Of his
life proved that he was worthy Of
burial. his body was carried across the
sacred lake, of which each province had
one, and was there permitted to rest. II
the judges found him unworthy, even
though he belonged to the highest rank,
he could not be buried with his ances-
tors. The body was returned to his rela-
tives and was buried on the side Of the
lake opposite to the burial place Of the
just
The belief Of the Egyptians in fu-
ture state Of existence gave rise to the
practice of embalming the dead. They
wished to carefully preserve the body,
so that the soul upon its return to it's
former abode at the end of all things
might find it ready for its reception.
Bodies were embalmed in three differ
ent ways. The most expensive and mag
nificent method was used upon the bod
les of kings and other persons Of dis.
tinguished rank, the cost amounting to
q talent of silver, or 1910.
A number Of persons were employed
in the process of embalming, and they
were treated with great respect. They
filed the cavities of the body with
myrrh, cinnamon, spices and many
kinds Of sweet smelling drugs.
After a certain time had elapsed the
body was swathed i'm lawn fillets, which
were glued together with kind Of thin
gum, and then crusted over with costly
perfumes. By this mode of embalning
the shape of the body, the lineaments
Of the face, the eyebrows and eyelashes
were preserved in their natural perfec-
ton. Bodies thus embalmed are what

HE ANSWERED THE QUESTION.
General sheridan Explains What IL the
Matter With the Democratic Party.

General sheridan Explains What IL the
Matter With the Democratic Party.
Some years ago. while General George
A. Sheridan was addressing great au-
dience in Cleveland, a man yelled out
. him, What is the matter with the
Democratic party anyhow" Sheridan
dropped the line of argument he was
pursuing, turned toward the man and
replied as follows: What is the matter
with the Democratic party? will tell
you. my friend. The Democratic party
was born under planets that were in op-
position II lives in the objective case.
Like mule. it has no pride Of ancestry,
NO hope of posterity. 1t never originates
anything. 1t always shines by borrowed
light. Democracy has never been Joined
IN. honest wedlock to principle, but
lived for years in open adultery with a
harlot called slavery, lived with her till
she died Of corruption and was buried
amid the sobs and groans of her para
mour.
THE atmosphere that surrounds De-
mocracy is full of noxious vapors that
breed moral pestilence and death. The
its shadow, and corruption grows lusty
under its unholy influence. Springs of
purity are never found in Democracy.
Its waters are torpid, lifeless, covered
with the filth and scum With which
ssagnant pools and waveless waters al.
ways offend the eyes of men. The soil
which Democracy has cultivated has
failed to yield harvests of value to the
nation, bat has given crops of worthless
weeds and briers.
Democracy has no love of country,
believes IN states instead of nation,
drives loyalty from its doors and well
comes treason to its habitation, hol Is

naught, strives 70 blacken the names Of
our heroes, weepS over the lost cause,

loyalty in the back, binds up the wounds
of treason and speaks words of hope and
comfort to its devotees, applauds when
helpless blacks are stricken down in the
spoth and caresses the hands red with
their innocent blood, denies the right of
American citizens to make homes for
themselves in the south. justifies the
nan who shoots them down or drives
them out.
Democracy is q curse to the land,

Source of Much Annoyance to
the Postoffice Officials.
WASHINGTON. June 27.-The ques-
tion OF admitting liquids into the mails
has proved source of considerable an
n0yance tn the postoffice officials. Free
quent violations OF the poSlotfice regu-
lations governing the matter have been
reported, and the general. superintend.
ent OF the railway mail service has is
sued the following notice to all post
masters:
1.-The postal laws and regulations pre-
scribe the conditions under which
liquids may be admitted to the mails.
The provisions should be carefully ell
forced by all postmasters. who should
see that the cases in which matter is en-
closed are water-tight, and not less
than three-quarters of an inch thick.
An ordinary wooden box with screw
cover does not comply with the provis-
ions of the regulation, and this office
has reason to believe that number OF
manufacturers in different parts of the
country advertise to sell mailing boxes
that do not comply with the provision,
ana that large number Of such boxes
are used.
Nearly all of the larger firms manu-
featuring cases have submitted sampi
to this office for inspection and approval,
and their cases bear certificate from
this Office that they conform to the reg
ulations of the postoffice department.
Postmasters should carefully scrutinize
all such cases that do not bear such
certificate to see that they comply fully
with the regulations"
