with human bodies, but with heads OF
the animals sacred to them. and thus
the sculptors became especially prof.
cient In modelling such forms. One Of
the chairs of this tomb, which looks al
most as II 1t might have been made In
the time of Louis XVI, has gazelles
under the arms of each side which In
their execution are remarkably realis-
tic. The back contains sculptured fig
ures of the god Bes standing between
two figures of the goddess Taurt, who
Is represented with the head of an AMI
NAL. The chair is supported by claw
footed legs, which thus are e to an
tedate by several thousand years the
similar characteristics Of so called an
tique furniture now popular.
A chair which might be said to be in
the empire style has legs modelled on
those of the OK. The carved work Is
gilded with Nubian gold, and the back
is s~culptured with a scene representing
Queen TITS daughter Set-Ammon %
a throne. One chair had a cushion
stuffed with goose feathers. perhaps q
thoughtful provision by Queen Til for
the comfort of her mother In the other
world. Evidently this princely pair
were fond of sweets. for among tbs
beautiful alabaster Jars containing fu-
neral offerings of food was found a
pitcher filed with honey, still in a fluid
state, to which the wasps came buzzinS
when Ii was brought into the open air.
The mummies CT Ioua and Tioua were
excellently preserved, and the features
could readily be distinguished. All the
relics are to be preserved at Cairo.

An OFFICER OF H PHILIPPINE con-
STABULARY.
larry force Is somewhat larger than that
OF the regular native troops. For pur-
poses of administration the islands are
divided into five districts. each with its
commanding officer, all divisions being
under the commend Of General Henry
T. Allen, Z. s. A.
The c~onstabulary was organized In
1901. Since that time there has been
a large decrease In the number OF
American troops In the Philippines,
and the work of keeping order has fall
en- more and more upon the natives. In
the Sulu group there are two COM
panies Of constabulary. and the Ameri-
can troops are garrlsoned at Jolo.
They are not scattered throughout the
remote districts. In many places the
natives see white soldiers only at long
Intervals. The former are managed
through the sultan and his dattos, with
the cooperation Of the constabulary,
and when the regular American troops
are employed In action 1t is for the
purpose Of running down troublesome
bands which cannot be taken without
them.
There are still many sections Of the
Philippine Islands which are infected
by ladrones, for brigandage is an In
stitution that has existed in the islands
for centuries and cannot speedily be
wiped out. The ladrones hide In noun
tain Businesses and swoop down upon
outlying villages or waylay the travel
er. The way to fight them Is to follow
them to their retreats and play the
game according to their code. This the
constabulary has done successfully. 1t
has rounded up some thousands Of out
laws, and 1t Is estimated that the diff
ference between the cost Of support
ing the members of the constabulary
and an equal number of American
troops represents a saving to the gov
eminent OF from $10.0O0,000 to $12,-
600, 900. There are Tagalogs. ~Ilocanos,
visayans and Moros in the force. and
they make brave fighters. especially
the Moros. They love to swagger and
show their weapons, and the main diff
fculty consists in restraining them In
an encounter and preventing them
from perretrathg cruelties.

A SMILE.

Charles NJ. Alexander, the famous
mission singer who Is about to begin a
campaign in Philadelphia with the Rev.
DR.. Torrey, has a smile that has much
to do with the effectiveness Of his mis-
sion music. The Alexander smile Is one
that rarely off. and the express
sion of the singers face goes a long
way toward carrying home the words
of the mission hymns. His face has q
frank, open expression and when lit up
by his smile wins the sympathies of
the most stony and Indifferent to the
cause which he represents. Mr.. Alex.
ander Is in the early thirties, has a
good figure. a smooth face and Is quite
bald. He looks a good deal like an ac'

ton of his audience. When he sang III

RICH find was made IN the land
of the pharaohs recently
"a which throws light on the u s
toms Of the Egyptians Of a
very early period and reveals the fact
that the people of that ancient era pos
sessed many things strangely resem'
bling those OF modern times. In the
course Of the excavations In the sacred
valley Of the kings a tomb was found
which proved to have a curious his
tory. From the hierogiyphics on the
mummy cases the archaeologists made
out that the burial place was that OF
'Ioua. hereditary prince, chief friend
among the friends OF the sovereign"
Near his mummy was that OF his wife,
Tioua. The tomb was In a state OF
much confusion. Mummy cases were
broken open, coffin overs were left
standing against the wall and the
apartment was filed with vases, furni-
ture and adornments scattered about
In a haphazard way. 1t was the tomb
of the father and mother Of Til. o
queen of the eighteenth dynasty, about
100 b. c., whose changing of the ma
tionai religion caused uproar and VIC
lence In those PARKWAY days. 1t is on
jectured that she wished for her father
and mother a royal burial. but as the
times were not suspicious placed thelI
mummies in this tomb temporarily,
with the funeral offerings, until the de-
sired honors could be duly paid.
Evidently the period of quiet did not
arrive, and the mummles Were left
where they were placed. Perhaps O
thousand years passed away, and then
the tomb was entered by a robber. who
stole jewelry and other things which
, seemed to him of value. He scattered
many things about in his wanton disre-
gard of the sacredness of the place, but
nevertheless left the tomb in posses
sion of the very articles most valuable
to present day students Of that distant
time. 1t was not opened again until
the ~archaeologists removed the debris
from 1t a few weeks ago, and thus but
for a single rude intrusion 1t has lain
undisturbed for almost 1900 years.
Owing to the custom Of those early
days of placing in the tombs of the
rich and great the things they were
supposed to need in the other world, OF
the symbols of the same, including
ever effigies of servants to minister to
them. this burial place was filed with

law which went into effect last

town is already grieving on account
of his ignorance of the law to the
extent of heavy fine imposed up

customary to scratch the stamp on
a cigar box and if he so dSires give
it away or do with it as he saw fit
so long as the stamp was destroyed.
But this is no longer the case The
merchant or dealer must at once re-
