AMERICAN eARsERsHoP.
Is Not Appreciated Until One Travels
 in Europe.

'The comforts and conveniences of American barber shops are not ap- preciated by a man until he has been abroad" said a returning traveller. T have spent about a year in England and on the continent and l have yet to find a decent barber shop. The barbers are fair except when it comes to hair cutting. If one dares to have his hair cut he is taking long chances. My hair was shorn in so many differ ent ways that l began to dread hair cut as one would an operation. the result of which might be fatal. The big, comfortable chairs which we have are very scarce abroad and the only ones l saw were. in an American shop in London. The usual arrangement is to have ordinary arm chairs with fixed headrest. The cleanliness also leaves something to be desired. The barber has a thick rubber on which he wipes the razor and some of these plates look as though they might have been brought over by William the Con- queror. When the shave is over the barber takes the cloth from your neck and you wash yourself. Their is only one mechanical arrangement in Eng fish shops and that is universal It IS a hair brush. Over the chairs extends a shaft with a wheel for each chair
 The barber has d circular hair brush about foot in diameter, with a rub Der belt extending to the shaft pully- This brush whirls about at a great rate and is used in shampooing. It is a terrifying sort of an affair. and it tool

reinforcement of the original rock is very apparent now to a close observer, but originally they were concealed. for scientists believe that the entire image was once covered with enamel. In- deed, it is possible even now to find fragments still adhering to the sur face which resemble porcelain tiles found in tombs and the ruins of the ancient palaces. Several private col lectors and some museums have large blocks of most brilliant coloring and artistic design and from them we can imagine what an imposing spectacle the great statue must have been before the Persians and the Mohammedans destroyed it's glory.
 While it is still an impressive pie ture it has no beauty whatever The nose, the lips and other features have been mutilated by vandals,. among whom the French soldiers under Ma poleon are said to have been the most vicious, but the defacement began be- fore the Christian era when Cambyses invaded Egypt and made it a province of the Persian empire. The expression upon the face of the famous statute is blank. Poets and imaginative peo. pie have expended much time in de- scribing lines which do not appear and are purely fanciful, and we have been told again and again that the solemn immobility of its expression is the ideal of mystery in stone" One writer that I read the other day described it as having "a comliness not of this world" "a mold of beauty now for gotten-fOrgotten because Greece drew forth Cytherea from the flashing foam of the Aegean and in her image created new forms of beauty While this sounds fine it is preposterous rot Washington Times

SPHINX NO MORE A MYSTERY.
1t Is Nothing More Than a Gigantic
 Image of Ra- Harmachis.

Scientists of Washington confirm the reports which have been in circulation recently to the effect that the mystery surrounding the Sphinx has been soly- ed. At the Smithsonian institution it was said that the stone enigma of the desert was nothing more than a gigan- tic image of Ra- -HarmachiS the god of morning and the conquerer of dark ness. hence it faces the east. This dis covery was made recently by means of the inscriptions on the walls of a temple which was unearthed by ex- cavators.
 Scholars uncovered the foundations of the great statue and have brought to light many interesting features which until recently were unknown. The temple surrounding the base was intended for the worship of Harmachis, and several chambers hewn ill the rock were the tombs of kings and priests devoted to his worship. In 1896 there was discovered a stone cap with a sacred asp carved on the forhead which once covered the head of the Sphinx like a royal helmet, and must have added immensely to it's grandeur. particularly if it was gilded as it is believed it was.
 The Sphinx is not an independent structure. The body and head are actually hewn out of solid rock. but much sandstone masonry was built in to make the outlines perfect and cover defects in the material. This

There Is no doubt coffee gave me
nasal catarrh, The ceptim in my nose
was ali gone and the catarrh was eat
ing It's way, getting hold Of the main
bone Of the nose. lt also affected my
sight very much.
"My nose was constantly dripping

way very well, the dripping from my
nose stopped and my nose finally got
perfectly we'll and healthy as fnr as Is
possible for the ceptlm to grow back,

entirely by changing from coffee TO
