the Tyrians make show OF their glass
work. tho Ethiopian offers his Shepa
spices, Golconda diamonds flash from
iewollers stalls, with the precious ores
form the Paran desert mines; the
Jewish farmers of Goshen bring wheat
and rich cheeses and rare fruits come
from all the neighboring orchards. On
the streets, scribes are sitting on the
curbs and in the porches of the larger
houses, equipped with writing cases
and papyrus, reed pens and bottles OF
blue, red and black ink, ready TO
make out accounts for the small shop
Keepers and write letters and petitions
for their customers. Some people go

round, rough and boisterous, whilst
the paved streets for miles in length
are filled with horsmen, chariots, mule
carriages and palanquins. Multitudes
OF citizens, also, are sitting at their

Fellahs, Imperial Thebes counting its
grandeur in four small hamlets: Luxor,

To show the complete desolation
that has passed over this scene, must
add few sentences.
Amenophis III of the eighteenth
dynasty covered Egypt and Nubia with
masterpieces of architecture in the most
grand and solid style.
The most striking perhaps, of all his
works are two colossal statues Of the
king, place originally in the centre,
to be the eternal guardians of the peo-
pie, the dwellings, the palaces and
temples, lying at their feet. The stone
kings are still at their post, resisting
invasions, hammers, sun and storm.
Seventy feet high of single blocks of
red sand stone, they now stand far
away westward on the sandy plains,
each sitting on his rocky throne their
hands resting on their knees, gazing
in sublime tranquility, serene and
majestic! 1t is no fault Of theirs that
all is silent and solitary, that moving
life and animated structures have all
passed out of being.

TRE SAFkNr oE RInKs.
An Ingenious Point Which Did Not Occur
TO the Insurance Agent.


TO the Insurance Agent.
After moving large stock of goods
into building in the wholesale dis.
trict the owners learned that they could
get no insurance.
The building was on the blacklist"
OF the insurance companies, because
one of the tenants had already burned
out four times under suspicious cir
cumstances, and apparently with pc
cuniary profit to himself.
1t was, therefore. impossible for this
tenant to got insurance from any COM
pany, and the boycott vent no far as to
include any building that harbored him
or his stock of goods.
Tho business concern that had moved
int the "blacklisted" building was
much disturbed. The head of the firm
went to an insurance agent and said /:
;" l wish you could arrange it in some
way to insure our stock. "
I'm sorry" replied the agent; "but
the companies have no confidence in
that man on the floor above. -
He can't get insurance, eh?'
Not cent worth. They're onto
him all along the line. -
Well, do you think there is any dan
ger of fire in that building as long as
he's nor insured?"
well, | should say not. l never
thought of that before'
The firm received it's policy at once,
and the Chicago Record a story.

Change of scene ut Home.

Aoutn NolI pauion
A change of air and scene is often
prescribed for invalids. In many cases
IT is wise prescription, but in others
the journey entails expense which can
not be borne without great sacrifice,
and means for the sufferer an unhappy
isolation among strangers, and de-
privation of the home comforts and
care which are so necessary to sick
PERSONS peace and well-being Home
sick and disheartened, the invalid re-
turns from his soiourn among strange
scenes not benefited by the change, and
alas! his return Is too often but a
coming homo to die.
Happily it is possible to secure many
of the advantages Of a change without
incurring the disadvantages Just de-
scribed. In other words, real change
may often be secured without sending
the patient away from home.
For one thing, his room may be
changed to the most CHEEKY and sun
shiny in the house. And here, with a
little attention, an almost daily sun
bath may be obtained, a sun bath
quite as good as would be afforded at
the fine sanitariums in foreign lands or
in this country.
won WTdpptu from COlu anu urauSnLB,
the patient can sit on the lawn or the
piazza, or in the open field or pasture,
and breathe the life-giving air Walks
and rides, which need only to be
planned for, will aid in the good work.
Open windows and open doors, with a
fire when needed, will in many in
stances afford most salubrious change
of air after the close, stuffy rooms in
which sick people are prone TO spend
their time.
A friend, perhaps former school
mate, where a nurse is out of the
question, may be glad TO pay the in
valid a visit, making himself cheer
ful companion, always ready to amuse,
to read aloud, to play games, and in
general to keep away the 'blues. 2
These few hints will suggest some of
the changes that can be wrought at
home TO aid in restoring an invalid to
health, changes which may be effected
at small cost of money or convenience.
And after all. If the sufferer fails TO
find the health hoped for, it is at
least comfort that his last days
should be spent at home, sheltered by
love and care, and not among strangers,
homesick and wretched.

The United states Currency.


The currency difficulty in the United
States is again becoming acute, and
fresh issue of government bonds
to replenish the gold reserve of the
Treasury appears to be imminent. And
the worst of it is that there is no pros
pect of any early action being taken to
remedy state OF affairs which is
seriously iniuring' every business in
terest in the States, degrading the
credit of the country in foreign mar
kets, and bringing its legislature into
general contempt. For although a
new loan will put more gold into the
Treasury, that is as sure to be drained
away as were the proceeds of previous
bond issues, and any measures of re-
form President Cleveland may propose
are little likely to find favor with 4
legislature OF which the majority con.
slsts of his political opponents, whose
chief aim will be to prevent him
achieving anything that would win
him credit in the constituencies.
That the public welfare should be thus
sacrificed TO party interests is scan.
dalous to "a degree, and we here can
only wonder at the supineness of tho
American people in tolerating such an
utterly disCreditable state of things.
So long, however, RS they do tolerate
it, British investors will do well TO
continue to fight shy of American
securities; but it is pity that they
should be compelled to do 30, for with
sound money guaranteed, many Of
them, such, for instance as good rail
road bonds, possess really solid attrac-
tions.

4rnER- -gEIGHT RACING SKATE

ported by peculiar shaped aluminium
support, on top of which is a light
strip of mahogany, making a beauti
