THEN DEiFlED THE BEETLE.
How the .yptians Came to Regard tn
Do spised Insects as Gods.


ID. spised Insects as Gods.
Primitive observers never suspect
ed anything so commonplace as the
presence of eggs in the middle of the
ball the beetle has made. That sori
of explanation belongs only to thN
age of science. The Egyptians saw
the beetle bury the pellet, and they
saw a new beetle emerge from 1t il
due time. and they leaped straigh'
to the not unnatural conclusion ths'
here was a case of spontaneous ger
Grafton. The plous scarab. they lma9
ined, buried the balls of dirt as they
themselves buried their mummled
dead. and new scarabs sprang from
it under the vivifying rays of the su
preme sun god, as the glorified body
would spring in the end from the
dried and withered dust of the hui
man mummy.
II was as an emblem of the resur.
rection then that the scarab attained
such immensa vogue in the Nile val
ley. NothiI could be more natural
than that mummy making race
should see its proceedings an un-
doubted ar -ument for the immortal
ity of the oul and proof of the con
tinued ey stence of the spirit after
death. ] -erythin9 conspired to pro
duce thj impression. The earnest
way in hich the good beetles devot
ed thei lives TO the pious task OF
rolling heir balls of manure TO the
chosen burying place was a lesson,
as it ',ere, TO careless humanity 70
look 10 the end-a perpetual coleop
ferrous memento mori.
AL sorts of strange fables rose up
accordingly about the sacred insect
1t seems that for IS days the balls re
mained under ground, through a
whole lunar revolution. During that
mystic time the beetles grew within
by spontaneous generation. On the
twenty ninth day, which the insect
knew as the moment Of the conjunc
tion of the sun with the moon, tie
ball opened of itself and forth salEeI.
in full divinity new born scarab
Later on. when the cult of Ra, the SUD
god. became the chief element in the
worship Of Egypt, eclipsing and alb
sorbing into itself the earlier anct O..
trail worship of Osiris, yet another
point of sanctity was discovered III
the scarab.
The balls he rolled behind him 50
assiduously, being round and revivl
fed, were considered as emblematicuI
of the suns disk, and the beetle him
self was almost regarded as an avatar
of the solar deity. To such pitch OF
dignity may honest industry and
sterling earnestness of purpose lead
in the end even a despised carrior
beetle. .-Cornhlll Magazine.
