Tho Jolly ERyptinna

An interesting papyrus recently dis
covered shows that many of the an
Client Egyptians were quite as fond OF
drinking good liquor as are any Of the
moderns. In this papyrus, which Is
5000 years old, the philosopher Ami
writes the following words Of warning
on the subject Of intoxlcation to a
student in Channu: 81 have been In
formed that you are not only neglect
ing your studies, but that you are also
indulging in the most frivolous pleas
ures, and that you spend good deal
Of your time In drinking, Now, how
can 1t benefit you to drink so much
beer every day? Take advice and shun
that insidious liquor" From other
sources we learn that students in the
land Of the pyramids enjoyed their
beer, and were quite as fond Of play
ing practical jokes as any Of their de-
scendants, From the diary OF an
Egyptian lieutenant who ilourished
about 1000 years ago we obtain tho
interesting information that q quart Of
beer cost about cents, and there are
various entries in the book which al
low us to infer that the average Egyp-
tian never dreamed of quenchlng his
thirst with less than quart at a time.
Indeed" says the erudite Egyptolo"
gist who has deciphered this diary,
there are various facts which justify
us in describing the thirst Of the an
cient Egyptians as pyramidal."

Beautifully Dressed Dolls Sent TO tho
Prospective Bride.
A vast amount OF very beautiful and
exquisitely skilled work only plays n
recondary and passing part In the econ
omy Of trade, says the New York;
Commercial Advertiser. The big dress
makers models are so exclusive and
precious that they are guarded from
outsiders as one would guard Jewels or
gold from thief. Pattern dresses cost
enormous prices, and the gown build
ers use them bit by bit as ideas for
Original" costumes. To their far
western or southern customers they
will send exQuisitely dressed dolls to
demonstrate the specially designed
costumes they think will suit them.
Not long ago as many as two dozen
dolls were sent to California to q
young woman whose trousseau was to
be made In New York. When the dolls
were returned their frocks were re-
moved and destroyed; yet the care TAX
en- to make these miniature frocks per-
feet in every detail OF cut At and trim
ming was greater in way than that
the real costumes will require. Jewell
ers send out designs or make them up
TO exhibit to customer, In wax, us
ing sometimes paste stones and some
times real ones. The wax is melted
fiat and smooth into a box, and then
the Jewels are stuck into It. Black
wax throws up diamonds to perfection
pnd the idea of the pattern, tiara,
ring or algrette is to take is easily
realized when seen In this form.

Neu KIND of HeadIirht.

The locomotives of fast passenger
trains IN the future viii be equipped
with powerful electric dOubld-ray head
lights, designed to give added safety to
all trains travelling at night.
The most important feature OF the
system Is the plan for utilizing pOr-
ton of the light as a signal to indicate,
at a distance, the approximate location
of the locomotive approaching from
any direction This Is accomplished
by placing an auxiliary plane reflector
on the headlight case at an angle OF 40
degrees. in such manner that one third
of the total 5000 candle pO.geT of the
headlight Is projected vertically from
1000 to 1000 feet in the air. making a
beam of light that can be seen from
any point within a radius of from five
20 ten miles. according TO the weather
The first of these new electric head
lights to be operated in the United
States was placed several months ago
on an engine running between CIucIu-

The endeavOr conversation social
and hobo supper, held at Albert Listers
Wednesday evening under the auspi-
ces of the endeavOr social Ommittee,
was a decided success. Several unique
and entertaining features we're intro
duced and carried out, according to
the program, and proved to be a su-
periOr method of employing the time,
than playing old WORKOUT games. Ten
interesting subjects, such as "WOman's
Rights" sour FavOrite Authors"
sBible Study" Great Men" aud The
Present War we're discussed by all
present and settled definitely On the
question of ~FavOrite Authors" there
was considerable difference Of opinion,
some admitting that their choice lay
between the author of HOstetter's al
manac and the writer of MuidrOw
items. Dewey was the only great man
some could think Of, and on the qUes-
ton Of sWOman's Rights" all agreed on
giving them the right of way unmOles-
ted.
The hobo supper was just what the
name implied, being a tin can Of coffee
straight" and a slice Of bread minus
the butter. Two Weary Williesn were
introduced and after a short tableau
took their ratiOns and disappeared
The program was concluded by singing
