Attention is called by the Travellers
Gazette to recent acquisitions by the
Louvre, notably Of a life size bust in
chalk, primitively colored, Of the her
NIT king Of the eighteenth dynasty,
Akhoumalon, or Amenophis w., one OF
the strangest figures in the long line
Of the Pharaohs. The bust Is a re-
markably Ane specimen of the art of
the period, and is we'll preserved. Be-
sides this, there are four sepulchrsl
urns in blue porcelain from the tomb
Of Rameses II. In these urns was
found, besides funeral linen, certain
organic matter, which is being chem,
ically examined.
