Protection for French Wives.

In France no woman may work
more than ten hours day, but wom-
an of Marseilles, the mother of seven
children and the assistant Of her hus-
band in his vineyard, complained to
the magistrate that her husband com.
PEELED her to work from IS to 20
hours a day. The magistrate ruled
that the joint earnings or production
of husband and wife are, under law,
not wages, but something for the COM
mon good of family. Yet the state
does not contemplate that where a
wife both rears a family and aids in
her husbands affairs she shall have
less protection both as to her income
and strength than an employe. As a
matter of reason she should have
more protection. Without having spe-
Gifted support Of the law for his ruling,
he held that the wife cannot be COM
PEELED to work more than ten hours a
day, and that she must have a full
Sunday of rest. The husband appealed
the case, but the decision of the Mar.
settles magistrate was sustained.

GREEN SUN OF EGYPT.
Curious Phenomenon to Be Seen Only
In That Land.

Perhaps It is the sun. and not the
moon. that is made of green cheese.
The appearance of green light at
sunset, like many other phenomena
supposed to have only recently at
tracted attention, was noticed and
commented upon by the ancient Eyp-
tan, and more particularly so because
In the clear air Of Egypt the tints Oh
sunset are peculiarly distinct.
AS the sun there descends nearer
and nearer the horizon. and Is i'm
mensely enlarged and flaming, 1t sud-
denly becomes, for an instant, a bril-
liantly green color and Immediately a
series Of green rays suffuses the sky
In many directions, well nigh to the
zenith. The same phenomenon ap-
pears at sunrise, but to smaller ex-
tent Sometimes, just as the last part
of the suns disk vanishes, its color
changes from green to blue, and so
also after it had disappeared the sky
near the horizon often is green, while
toward the zenith 1t Is blue.
This was alluded to in Egyptian
writings. Day was the emblem of life,
and night that Of death and the noe
turnal sun, being identified with
Osiris, thus rendered Osiris king Of
the dead. The setting sun was green,
therefore Osiris, as the nocturnal
deity of the dead, was painted green.
The splendid collins of the high priests
of Ammon frequently depict the green
sun and the funeral deities are all col
ored green.
There are innumerable instances in
the Egyptian relics of representations
relative to death being colored green.
The practice undoubtedly arose from
the green tints of sunrise and sunset.
The green sun disk is referred to 5000
years ago in Egypt. This is the earliest
known human record of an astronomi.
cal phenomenon.
