What came near being a serious acci-
dent happened on the street early Satur-
day morning. Mrs. Charles Snow while
driving through the street, struck Mr.
Charles Turner, throwing him heavily to
the ground. Mr. Turner, as fortune
would have it, rolled out of the way of
the carriage wheels and was helped to
his feet a bit shaken up but not seriously
bruised, 1t was certainly a narrow es-
cape from serious injury.

The Secret of the phinix

sunday Magazine.
What is the meaning of that vast
human head that rises out OF the
cleaning sand beside the great
pyramid of Ghizeh? Hewn out of the
solid limestone rock, it towers above
you to q height of 20 feet, and it
stretches away in the form of the body
of lion to length of $50 feet in front
of you Sculptured with consummate
skill. it reposes in graceful ease on the
sand. The face gazes with a sublime
patience and mystery into the far dis
lance. Its features have been much
mutilated by the ravages of time, and
many of the finer lines have been
worn away by the craving tool of the
winds, holding as a cutting edge the
desert sand. But still the eyes pre-
serve their ancient human look of I'M
fathomable mystery and calm, eternal
patience. ~ Why was thiscolossal'fig-
ure constructed? Was it q mere caprice
or was it meant to express definite
purpose?
That question is involved in the
meaning of Its symbolic shape. The
people who fashioned it we have rea-
son to believe we're astronomers as we'll
as sculptors. They came from q land
where the stars were first observed and
their phenomena studied in connection
with the saU6lrS OF men. where GQe
priests watched the rising and setting of
sun and stars in temples that were as
observatories and oriented
to certain astral movements. The
event of greatest Importance in Egypt
has always been the annual inundation
of the Nile. The whole welfare of the
country has depended upoh this event
from time immemorial. We can
imagine therefore, how profound
would be the interest manifested in
associated with it, and es-
pecislly in the signs in the heavens
tb at indicated its approach. The two
signs of the Zodiac through which the
sun passed at the time of this perio-
dic flood were Leo and Virgo. May
we snot suppose then, that the
woman's head and the lions body were
carved in the rock in the composite
figure of the Sphinx in order to pre-
sent the combination of these two
fas a perpetual heraldic
record of the annual baptism and re-
suscitation of the land under the be-
of these suspicious
stars?

Alas the Poor Humorist!

1t has been said that the vast mass
of Jokes perpetrsted to amuse and en-
terrain civilized humanity is reducible
to seven, all others being simply va
riations upon original themes. Whe-
Their this is true or not, the fact re-
mains that the greatest difficulty
which the professional humorists
must encounter is to find material for
news quibs, or, rather, to secure pegs
upon which to hang old jokes.
A careful analysis of the average
joke, no matter how spontaneous and
fresh it may seem, will speedily result
in the discovery that it is not new at
all, but has been dressed up In the
latest fashion, much as q man changes
mis- clothes. or course, the change
does not alter his personality; he re-
mains Mr.. So-snd-so, regardless OF the
suit he may wear. 1t is the same with
Jokes, (which are paraded in attire
adapted to the conditions.
Limited as the humorist's stock of
material apparently is, it seems des-
tined to undergo still further reduc-
tions, until he stands in actual danger
of hopeless complete permanent exahus-
ton. One Joke after another has been
eliminated from the sphere of avail
ability. He is bold, indeed, who nova
days ventures upon humorous illusions
TO the plum per 8 wealth. or the motel
clerks diamonds: who risks the
mother-in-law joke, or offends pa
tient public with references to uncles.
The boarding house joke has devel-
oped remarkable longevity, and,
though decidedly threadbare, still con-
tinues to be used with more or less
generally less-effect Those who have
worked this mine in the expectation of
extracting smiles now find themselves
threatened with a cave in. How much
laughter has not been caused by deli
cate remarks about the Oleaginous pro-
duct served in boarding houses as but
teri With the mature spring chicken
and the rubber beefsteak it has shar-
{ d front place in popularity. This
ever flowing fountain of mirth bids fair
to be clogged by q scientist who has
way to make rancid but
ter good.

man to become extinct like the dodo,
the aux, the leviathan, the megalo-
saurus and the pterodactyl? Perish the

" men have changed radically since
those days. The modern man does not
admire the fainting woman, neither does he
marry her. If by chance he does. he is
only man, and lives to regret it There is
no reason why any woman should be faint
ing woman. General bodily weakness and
nervousness i'll women are due to weakness
or disease of the delicate, special organs of
the sex. DIR. Pierce's FavoTite Prescription
is a scientific and unfailing remedy for all
disorders of this description. 1t irnparts
health and strength to the sensitive and
susceptible organs upon which a woman, =

vigor of youth, rounds out the en,aciated
