EGYPTs CIVILIZATION.

The Investigations OF Psychologists
have taken them TO the very border
Of historic times. Prof. Flinders Pc
trl In a recent lecture on the rise Of
civilization in Egypt, took his audience
back to the reign Of King Mena, sup
posedly over 1000 years before our era.
During his reign, the professor said,
Egyptian art became fixed. and under
Ter, his successor, It crystalllzed into
the forms that lasted for 5000 years,
and that are familiar from monuments
and relies,
A peculiar fact was pointed out by
the lecturer He said the figures OF
Zer's time are In fact better than the
later ones and like superiority char
acterzes the jewelry, soldering and de-
signing The linen made In Zer's reign
has a finer thread and closer warp than
that OF our finest modern cambria
5000 years later, The art Of working
in hard and beautiful stones was at
Its best in Mena's day. There are many
evidences Of intercourse at this remote
period with the Greek Islands, and
the starting point OF the history Of
Greek vases must now be taken back
some three thousand years before the
Mycenaan age" King Den, OF the
first dynasty, reigned in a period Of
sumptuous handlwork, but the closing
years Of the dynasty were n time OF
cheap profusion." With later dynasties
art and industry decayed and the gods
multiplied,
In Egypt, then, we meet a civiliza-
ton which, in It's first appearance In
that country shows marks OF excellence
unsurpassed in subsequent ages. There
is not feeble infancy developing TO
greater strength and perfection, as
years roll by, but there is mature
civilization, establishing Itself, and
then subject to decay
To account for this, 1t must be sup
posed that It was imported into Egypt
from some other country, and Mr.. Au-
gustus lie Plongeon's idea. that It came
from America is perhaps the most
plausible so far suggested. He be-
lleves that the Americans at that early
period traversed the seas and had O
world commerce as important as that OF
the Anglo -saxons today. He thinks that
they built colonies everywhere, and
their civilization was dlffused through
out the world, by the intercourse they
carried on with foreign nations
one thing is certain Civilization. as
far as known is never attained by any
people except through influence from
outside sources, Nations may degener'
ate. and In the struggle with nature
forget arts and sciences they have once
cultivated. There are many instances
| of this on record in the annals Of his
tory but none to prove that ciyili2a
ton is a spontaneous growth. Its very
existence points to the divine Source o.
all light and knowledge, and the com
munication at some time Of man will
| his Maker Civilization no more grow
by It's own force. than does a beautiful
rose without the painstaking care o
the gardener. II must be planted. Th'
soil must be specially prepared 1

Progressive games were INDUCED for
amusement, in which seven tables

progressed the greatest number Of
