The late discoveries of BrHgsch Bey
in connection with the Egyptian hero
glyphics which he deciphered are the
subject of an article in the Oester-
reichische Wochenschrift, in which the
writer says that it is no longer difficult
to understand the origin of the ''seven
lean years narrated in the book OF
Genesis The Inscriptions as trans
lated by Brugsch show that LOO years
before the Christian era the Nile for
seven consecutive years did not over
flow, and famine, pestilence and mis-
cry followed I'VE know" says the
writer, chat the date of the seven
years of fruitlessness mentioned III
Genesis was 100 B. c., and thus what
has been looked upon as fancy has
through these hieroglyphics become Il
matter of history. The failure of the
Nile to overflow. the whitening of the
vegetation, the lands devoid of crops
| famine and the consequent scourges
| are all depicted in the pictures which

Spectacular Mourning.

"Spectacular mourning" says Or
Max Feldner in Berlin paper. lis an
American weakness The big black
bordered mourning advertisements in
which we indulge are not to be seen
here, but cards with deep black Dor
ders, printed Or engraved, according to
the bank account of the bereaved fam
ily, are sent to the friends who leave
cards or send messages of coincidence
Much display is made in this way
Black clothes are bought after a death
in the family even by the poorest PEG
pie, and this makes a death a double
blow Some people have the courage
to wear the clothes which they have
and to avoid high colors for awhile
but the great ma jority are afraid tina
their neighbors will think them disrh
spectful, and good clothes are sold
given away or dyed. Much of this
spectacular mourning is idle show al:
heartless, and it is nothing unusual t
see women who would think it Il 81,
against the dead to wear anythn:
but black indulge in all kinds Of pleas
ures. A woman who is versed lii th
mourning usages of this country tol'
me that there are three distinct de
grees in mourning dress. The Initiate;
| can tell if the woman is broken heart
ed and inconsolable, sadly afflicted @
| simply in mourning"

Why Jewesses Marry Genti!es.

A writer in the Jewish World, Lon
don, who signs herself "A Jewess
Girl" is of the opinion that blame fol
much of the marrying that goes on be
tween Jewish girls and men of other
faiths and against which the chief
rabbi recently inveighed is to be lai'
at the door of the Jewish young man
1t is alleged by the "Jewess Gir1' that
the average middle class Jewish youth
Is outrageously spoiled by his family
and therefore sets an excessively high
value upon himself. which does not
conduce to the establishment of friend
ly relations between himself and girls
of his own class. Moreover. it is said
| the Jewish young men are not content
| to start their married lives in simple
| fashion and therefore usually requirl
| to marry where money Is. if not &C

which enables a miner 10 carry on his

his life at least one hour. This Is In
tended to serve IN the emergency OF an

cause of fatality Is sufrocation. In the
case Of the Davy lamp rs q preventive
Of explosion this Is required by law. as
a miner with an open lamp endangers
the lives OF his fellows as well as his
own. The carrying Of oxygen into the

agent into the seams aud galleries,
where many are exposed TO accident,
After few rescues by this means no
