CLIMATE OF EGYPT.


Something About the atmospheric Cont.
ditions In the Valley of the Nile.
From study of the climate of Egypt
recently made by DR.. j. Ham, says
the London Globe, it appears that for
three or four days in March or April
hot dusty wind visits Cairo and de-
stroys the foliage Of may Of the trees.
During summer hot winds-the Etesian
winds of the ancients, to which Thales
ascribed the rise of the Nile--blow
from the north, but, although dry, they
are clean. Toward September Damp
ness Of the air accompanies the rise Of
the Nile, dew falls occasionally and the
heat becomes oppressive, owing TO the
moisture.
October and November bring snow
and then morning fog or a shower Of
rain; but after that the weather be-
comes pleasant and steady, snow is un-
known, frost is very rare and rain is
also, infrequent.
The highest temperature recorded at
Cairo during the seventy-one years end
ing 1855 was III degrees Fahrenheit. in
August, 1881; the lowest was 2S4 de-
grees Fahrenheit, in February, 1850.
The mean annual temperature was T0,5
degrees Fahrenheit. In 1887 tAe rain
fall was only 81 inch, and in 1858 it
was 1.07 inches. Hail and thunder
storms are exceedingly rare.

The TEMPLE OF sAAL.


tiie AnesUut Witiis.
There rises q huge Waai. ssgenty-fve
feet high. inc!asing squaFo court. OF
which the s,de IS fouv hundred and
seventy feet long. Part ~ the wall, hav~
ing fallen into ruins. has been rebuilt
from tine ancient materials, bnt the
whole Of the north side. with its beau
tiful pilasters, remains perfect
As the visitors enter the court they
stand still in astonishlAent at tho ex-
traordinary sight which meets their
eyes, for here, crowded within those
four walls. is the native village Of Tai
mar. 1t was natural enough for the
Arabs to build TIER mud hGts within
these ready-maGe fortifications, admits
Blackwood's Magazine, blt the impress
sion produced bv such a village in such
place is indescribably ssrange. The
temple, so to speak, is eaten out at the
core, and little bu5 the shell remains.
But here and there q tluted Corinthian
column or group of columns, with en-
tablature still perfect, rises in stately
grace far over the wretched huts the
rich, creamy color Of the limestone and
the beautiful holdings of the capitals
contrasting with the clear blue of the
cloudless sky. The best view of the
whole is to be obtained from he roof of
the naos, which, once beat tiful and
adorned with sculpture, is now all bat
tered and defaced and has been meta
morphosed into a squaiid little mosque.
To describe the view from that roof
were indeed hopeless task. High into
the clear blue air and the golden sun
shine rise the sta-ely columns; crowded
and jumbled and hesped together be.
low, untouched by the gladdening sun,
beams, unreireshed by the pure, fresh
air, lies all the squalor and wretched~
ness of an Arab mud hit village

TUTELARY TREES.
Some Of the Shrubs Considered Sacred by
Peoples of the East.


People had their tutelary trees just as
they had their tutelary gods, the
former being the altavs ond shrines of
the latter, says the Gentlemans Maga-
zine. Among the Scandinavians the
ash was held to be the most sacred
tree. Serpents, according to their ber-
lief, dared not approach it. Hence the
women left their children with entire
confidence under its shade while they
went on with their harvesting. The.
Jews and the Arabs place the date palm
before all other trees, because it was,
they say, made Of the same clay as
Adam, and prophesied through it's
leaves. The rabbis accredited Abra-
ham with knowledge of what was
thus conveyed for his direction. In
Persia the inhabitants burn wax tap
ers, as at a SHRINE, before the trees
which they hold sacred, the oriental
plane and the cypress. They hope thus
to OBTAIN the cure of their maladies
and the accomplishment of their
wishes. So throughout the length and
breadth of India, the Ficus rehgiosa,
under which Buddha rested for seven
years plunged in divine thought, is ded-
icated to religious worship, and may
on no account be felled or destroyed.
With more universal, but not less sin-
cere, reverence do the peasants Of
Russia prostrate themselves before the
trees which they are about to cut, and
derrecate the vengeance of the deities
whose resting places they then proceed
to DESTROY

OWNED NO SOCIAL SUPERIOR.
The Early New England Farmer Not Like
His PrototyPe Of the Present pay,


His Pr0totyPe Of the Pressnt Day.
The first most forceful and most con-
spieuous social fact in the eaEly New
England community, where almost
everybody was a farmer, was the level.
ing of the class distinction. The soil
tiller who owned his land might have
to toll for living like serf, but the
Yale Review says he never incurred the
serfs degradation. Around him and
on the same level the great mass of the
community were his fellow farmers,
whom he never gazed upon from below,
either as matter of social rank or
from the plane of inferior vocation
Slightly beneath him were the class of
farm laborers-not many, when wooded
lands were cheap, nor profoundly low
cred as class, in days when farmers
themselves interchanged services and
toiled even harder than their own field
hands. The country merchant was, un-
less exceptionally rich, the farmers
peer, no better and no worse, in the
social scale. Above the farmer stood
only the men of the professions, usually
college graduates, including the minis
ter and the squirearchs But these,
while they formed certain distinctive
"cult," were too few to be a very
strongly emphasized group or impress
the class distinction harshly. OF the
two most prominent, the minister, vest
ed with powers well-nigh pontitcal, yet
held them not of men; and the old
country squires under the microscopes
of time and New England novels, have
obtained in our day greatly magnifed
Importance which they never really
possessed. If the farmer had to wrestle
hard with his niggard soils and had
slight education and few creature com
forts, he had, as offsets, simple wants,
social equality and an assertive man
hood. He was in large sense the
ciyis Romanus of his time and place.
