A LIVING MUMMY.
a TraveIter Tells of One He Found In an
Egyptian DOmicile.


Egyptian DOmicile.
1--WE went into the hut after some
hesitation-the dragoman whispered
there were ladies there-and found a
vigorous old man, telling his Mussul-
man beads crosslegged on mud bench,
and on the floor bent over the fire the
Oldest looking human being 1 ever saw
alive.
Mummies have seen, and wondered
not that they were dead, but in what
part of her withered desiccated frame
that old woman found space to keep the
stern vital energies that lined her grim,
carved face l can scarcely guess. She
looked no more living than seaweed
does dried and stretched on paper. Her
arms, her legs-thrust almost into the
fire-were so shrunk that the long
leathern flesh and faced muscles hung
round them like dangling shreds on
sticks.
Round her neck were beads of
wood, and round her wrists leathern
bracelets-though, to be sure, cannot
feel certain they were not folds of skin
and on her face lurked not only lines,
but gullies and passages, they seemed
so deep and fallen. But for the occa-
sional upturned glance of her cold, I'M
questioning eye l could not have sup
posed her anything else than one of the
earliest and best preserved of the re-
hottest queens of Egypt.
The old man gave US a lusty well
come and sent for milk and dates and
filed our pockets. He showed US his
long spear that hung against the wall
and told me with proud gesture that
he had often killed his man, but more
often with a sword, and taking me by
the shoulder showed me fercely how
he used to do it. He was 90 years old
and had never been farther from home
than Assouan, and then only once.
''All his SONS sat and stood round US,
and in the background against the mud
granary white teeth glimmered and the
broad, black faces of the women shone.
l asked him what present he would
like, and he asked for a little rice and
a little coffee. All the time he clutched
and fingered his Muslin rosary, which,
when 1 admired, he wanted me to &C
cept. The son came back with US to
the dahbeah and carried off the coffee
and rice in envelopes, to which L add
ed a handful of cigarettes and couple
of oranges, with particular injunctions
that one was to be give to the old gen.
tleman. ''-Cornhill Magazine.

ENGAGED.

Beside the sea / walked with her,
A maid SO passing fair,
envied the autumn sun
That fingered in her hair.
Nut brown her cheeks, slender her hand,
Her dark eyes hazel gray.
It seemed an angel just from heaven
Did walk with me that day.
her profile pure against the blue,
Clear like a carven gem.
Oh, never regal brow
Wore such diademl
The breeze caressed her sacred cheek
And fragrant with her breath
Forgot its mission to the land
And died blissful death.
A wanton spray of golden rod
That dared to kiss her hand
My keepsake is. She does not Know;
She cannot understand.
Mine is the memory of that hour;
Mine is that setting sun
The light that lived, the breeze that died,
The single star that shone.
Oh. gentle maiden, passing fair,
How little can you guess
The costly tribute that pay
To your sweet lovelinessl
My promise true another holds,
Beside distant shore.
II could not love thee, dear, so much
Loved l not honor more"

Across the meadow as l stray
For you l take the fern fringed way,
To gather violets wet with dew
Which only bloom, my love, for you
For you, my love, alone for youi
The grasses bend, the dewdrops shine,
The hawthorn's breath is sweet as wine;
The soft wind steals with presence sweet
To fling white petals at my feet
And lift the leaves from violets blue,
Hidden to wait, my love, for you
For you, my love, alone for you!
Blue as your eyes, which hearts beguile,
Their faint perfume sweet as your smile,

That they my passion may decle1A;
Their petals pale, tear stained with dew,
May tell how live but for you
For you, my love, alone for you!

times had animated disputes and who
sometimes went so far as to throw books
