cient cemetery, so old that even the
men TO whom the papyrus scrolls are as
familiar as the waters OF the Nile are
unable to say when 1t was first devoted
to the purpose of housing the mortal
tenements of the old Egyptians The
archaeologist has long found 1t fruit
full field for research, and many mummy
that to-day is ga2ed on in the museums
with round-eyed wonder was undisturbed
here for thousands Of years.
1t so happened that short time ago
persons prospecting for new finds in a
hill in the cemetery described discovered
a little pit. which apparently had never
been made the subject OF iuvCGtiga ton
Excavation brought to light the fact that
1t was not only something new, but from
the archaeologists standpoint, one OF
the most important finds in n very long
time. The pit was the entrance TO a
solid chamber Of rock. containing num-
Der Of stone collins or sarcophagi. Be-
sides these. there lay upon the floor of
the chamber a number OF statues. Ex-
animation of the various contents showed
that one of the sarcophagi contained the
mummy Of Nenkhefta, and the roll OF
papyrus and the inscription on the sar-
cophagus both gave the information that
these were the mortal remains of ''the
most beautiful man in Egypt and prob
ably the world"
When the wrappings of the mummy
of this ancient Adonis were unfolded there
was nothing to indicate that the re-
mains we're those OF a man of any beauty
whatsoever. The grinning skeleton look
ed exactly like those Of to-day. The only
odd fact was that the shape Of the skull,
the hands, and the feet were, while I'M
mistakably Egyptian, Of more classic
mould than those of most mummies. The
formation of the skull also indicated that
its owner when alive possessed great
mental development, thus justifying the
pleasant things which were said about
him in the perfectly preserved roll OF
ancient manuscript which recited his his
tory.
Some of the psychologists here were at
first inclined to doubt the accuracy of the
claims made regarding this find, but in
vestigation showed that there was no
cause for doubt whatever 1t would have
been impossible to perpetrate a fraud OF
this sort. The papyrus roll which told
the history of Nenkhefta. set forth that

In the tomb of Nenkhefta were also the
mummies of his wife and little son. II
would appear from the information con-
tanned in the papyrus that this oid-time
Egyptian was content with one wife,
something of a rarity in those days. He
was evidently an exception 70 all rules.
however. and this probably accounts for
the presence of the mummies of his wife
and son in his tomb. 1t is believed that
If he had had more than one wife there
would be some evidence In the form of
inscription or otherwise to indicate that
this was his favorite wife and the mother
OF his son. 1t is held that this must
have been his only son, from the state

ment on the papyrus scroll: There is
none to take his place"
Nenkhefta's wife was named Nyleptha.
This is the inscription on her sarco-
phagus: "Nyleptha, the Queen of Nenk-
hefta, Greatest of Rulers" Nothing Is
said as to whether or no she was beautl-
full, as 1t is plainly evident that the eff
fulgence of Nenkhefta was such that any
womanly charm in his family was prac-
tically lost sight of. Her mummy indi-
Gates that in no physical formation did
she differ from the ordinary woman Of
ancient Egypt.
The sarcophagus OF the son shows that
he died when about s years old. and be-
fore either his father or mother. The
other statues found in the cave, besides
those representing Nenkhefta, his wife,
and son, were evidently those of servants
1t was the belief in Egypt in those days
that persons tomb should be made to
resemble as much as possible his dwell
ing place when in the flesh. To that
end all the things and persons which
were accustomed features OF a household
were moulded in one fashion or an
other In this way, II was believed. the
change for the person who died would
not be so great.

his dominion extended over forty-two
miles OF the banks of the Nile. His resi-
dence was termed Nishwaka, which Is
supposed to mean that the village where
he lived bore that title. Great were his
focks, ruler Of rulers" says the manu-
script. "None were so wise. None were
so beloved. The sun smiled on him when

extravaganza in this, but among the

her was one which unquestionably was
intended to represent Nenkhefta- rms
was evidence sufficient that the inscrip-
ton must not have been without cause.
According to the standard OF beauty
which existed in Egypt in those days
Nenkhefta was certainly an Adonis. While
in sculpture the ancient Egyptian was
not equal to the genius of to-day, he was
a man OF much skill. and there is no rea-
son to doubt that the statue is a fairly
faithful representation Of "the most beau
tiful man in Egypt"

Ames said he had prepared list of q1es-
tions that he could answer on the sland,
but then denied he prepared them for that
purpose. Some of these questions he
acknowledged however had been asked
him by Mr.. Mitchell.
Mr.. Foote was pinning Ames down to
an admission that In giving his expert
evidence he had referred only 10 alleged
discrepancies tending to show that tho
disputed documents were forgeries and
not to anything that might show them to
be genuine, when the attorneys for the
plaintiffs raised q chorus of objections and
blocked che way.
At this juncture Mr.. Foote produce d
from his pocket letter and, handing it TO
Ames, asked him if it bore the genuine
signature OF Senator Fair. The attorneys
on the other side we're up again with OBJ
jections and announcements that they
were ready to argue on the subject of bait
ing handwriting expert with test writ
ings. And there was an argument in
which both sides poured hot shot into
each others lines up to the hour of adj
journment. There will be more of it to-
day.

BLEEDING PILES

And all other forms of this common and
often dangerous disease readily cured
without pain or inconvenience.
Thousands of men and women are af-
flicted with some sort of piles, without
either knowing the exact nature of the
trouble, or knowing it, are careless enough
to allow 1t to run without taking the sim
pie means offered for radical cure.
The failure of salves and ointments to
permanently cure piles has led many to
believe the only cure to be a surgical ope-
ration.
Surgical operations are dangerous to
life, and moreover. not often entirely sue
cessful, and at this time are no longer
used by the best physicians or recon-
mended by them.
The safest and surest way to cure any
case of piles, whether blind, bleeding or
protruding is to use the Pyramid Pile
Cure, composed of healing vegetable oils.
and absolutely free from mineral polsons
and opiates. The following letter from
a Pittsburg gentleman, a severe sufferer
from bleeding piles, gives some idea of
the prompt, effectual character of this
pile cure. He writes:
take pleasure writing these few lines
to let you know that l did not sleep for
three months except for short time each
night because of a bad case of bleeding
piles. l was down in bed and the doctors
did me no good. A good brother told me
of the Pyramid Pile Cure and / bought
from my druggist three fifty cents boxes.
They cured me and 1 will soon be able to
go to my work again.
WILLIAM HANDSCHU,
46 St, Cotton Alley, below Butter st.,
Pittsburg, Pa.
The Pyramid Pile Cure is not only the
safest and surest remedy for piles, but is
the best known and most popular. Every
physician and druggist in the country
knows 1t and what it will do.
Send for little book on cause and cure
of piles. describing all forms Of piles and
the proper treatment.
The Pyramid can be found at all drug
stores at so cents per package.
