cd to belong to the finest period Of
Egyptian sculpture. The front wall
OF the temple was covered with we'll
executed hieroglyphlcs and displayed
above the entrance figure OF hawk
headed Osiris surmounted by a globe.
and Burckhardt predicted that the
clearing away OF the sand would reveal
temple to that deity.
Not until 1877, four years later. was
the sand finally removed. Excavating
had proceeded 10 depth OF ~ feet
before the top OF the entrance was
reached aud much more had TO be
done before Il was finished, but II was
worth the while
The interior Of this ancient temple
presents first the colOnnade. the pilas-
ters Of which bear figures of Osiris 30
feet high, and the walls exhibit sculp-
lures representing battles and trI-
umphs. Next ls the great hall extend
Ing 200 feet into the rock, with ranges
Of massive square columns adorned
with statues. Beyond are an ante
chamber and the sanctuary with sew
eral side chambers. In the back
ground Is colossal figure seated on n
bench, and there are similar statues
In the side chambers. In the center
OF the sanctuary Is pedestal on
which sarcophagus may have once
stood, and hence the argument put
forth by some authorities that the
monument was not a temple but the
sepulchre Of king.
This interesting place, whether tomb
or temple, was constructed during the
reign Of Rameses II, one of the most
remarkable OF Egypt's monarchs, who
belonged to the 10th dynasty and oc-
cupied the throne during the most bril-
liant period of the empire of Thebes.

1t would not be surprising II there
was a revolt some time against the re-
tired list Of the army and navy.
Through recent legislation and rapid
promotions the retired list has be-
come top-heavy. There are now three
lieutenant generals, 20 major generals
and 2J0 brigadier generals on the re-
tired list of the army. In the navy of
the three highest grades there are 1913
rear admirals, IS commOdores and "a
captains. The act of Congress two
years ago raised many men on the re-
tired list one rank IL they had seen
service in the Civil War and had not
been advanced grade on retirement.
This swelled the list Of brigadier gen.
erals a great deal, but $50 brigadier
generals on the retired list is entirely
out of proportion to the size of the
army either now or what 1t has been
during the past 40 years since the
close Of the Civil War.

To one sweet soul who lived among
us too short space the panorama OF life
and its living was spread In a fine
and true light. He saw, through much
pain and many struggles the things
that endure beyond those OF this

which has come TO US from Robert

above all, ON the same grim condi.

Here Is a task For all that a man has

material for year OF writing and a
lifetime OF thinking and doing. For
It Is, In truth, mustard seed OF hap

living Is OF all human subjects with
which we have to deal the broadest
and most beautiful. 1t is well for men
and women TO dip into II as deeply as
their mental equipment and the stat
ure OF their souls viii allow. II is an
art too much neglected in these hur-
ried days. The tendency toward ma.
terial gain, the craving for position
and personal place. the increasing ap.
peutes for fame and fashion, are all
more or less hostile to its development
and growth. Deserving OF the highest
