Island Home of the Jews.

Elephantine is an island of the Nile,
where archaeologists are finding an
cient curiosities. A sort of sanctuary
decorated with miniature obelisks and
covering a spot which was used for
burying the bodies of sacred animals
was found These animals proved to
be rams carefully -mummified and
buried in sarcophagi of granite. The
wrappings of the mummies are gilded
and ornamented with painted scenes
of a NEUROLOGICAL character and bear
inscriptions. The ram was among the
sacred animals of Egypt, and seems to
have been especially sacred to the
principal deity of the island. Many
fragments of texts have been found.
They are inscribed upon pieces of
pottery and known as ostraca. The
inscriptions are in hieroglyphic, Cop
tic. Greek and Arab. They show that
as far back as the fifth century, B. c.,
the island was inhabited by Jews
Papyrus inscriptions had proved this
fact, but the new discoveries show just
what quarter belonged to the Jews
According to the records, a Jewish
temple. must have existed in this To-
cality and now is being looked for by
the investigators.

IN TOLLS FOR FAIR
RESULT OF A PROPOSAL OVER
THE 'PHoNE.
Why Bangs Is Not as Joyful as an
Accepted Man Should Be-An-
swer Not From His Adored
One.

Bangs beautiful blush lighted up
Mrs. Prunes' boarding house on every
occasion that sentiment was under
discussion.
You see, Bangs was In love, love
was in Bangs; it penetrated his whole
system; he saw and felt nothing else
but love.
Bangs hadn't fallen in love; he had
risen, and now he was at the top
notch; he was balancing on his toe
on the top rung, and he found it quite
hard to maintain his balapce. Yet he
was a cool-headed young man-except
on the love proposition.
Josephine was her name, and it was
enough to hear Bangs pronounce it
to know that he loved her passion
ately.
Among other drawbacks which kept
Bangs from declaring his love was
that Josephine had a mother. An
austere' woman, she wasn't passionate
over Bangs, because Bangs was only
a drygoods salesman. Her husband
had been plumber before Josephine's
mother got hold of him and made him
raise the price and keep it there.
Several times she had snubbed him,
and Bangs went as cheerfully to her
house as one does to an icehouse in
winter.
One night Gangs worked himself up
and was about to pitch into a pro
posal, when, suddenly, softly, with
swish of skirts, Josephine's mother
entered the room and sat down be-
tween them. The hot words froze in
his mouth, while Josephine's mother
was gazing passively through her
1orgnette and looking at him as she
would have studied a water color in
an art gallery.
1t was all off that night Bangs
knew it.
Again he tried to slip in word or
two of love edgewise- -but-no-Jo-
sephine's mother was there.
He didn't know when he could see
Josephine alone.
Immersed in his murky thoughts, he
sat behind his counter and tried to
figure way out.
A light broke suddenly upon him.
Rushing eagerly to the phone, he
called Josephine's house.
20, I'm so glad it's you, Josephine.
Don't interrupt me. I've something to
say and must say it quickly. I love
you, Josephine, I love you. Will you
marry me?"
He pressed the receiver to his ear
and listened intently for her soft, COO
ing "Y-y-y-es-s."
Suddenly he slammed the receiver
down and looked about like hunted
animal.
well, I'll be blamed he gasped, as
soon as he could. II thought it was
Josephine and, there, it was her
mother. What shall do?"
All Bangs Gid was to blush and bite
his finger nails. In fact, that was
about all there was left for him to do
now.

"Yes; you have the conceit of your

But that challenge to follow you,
to break my pledge; my running away,
at my heels; your visit to the tunnel
in search of those notes-don't you
know that those things were a blow
that hurt? You had been the spirit
of this woodland to me. Through all
these months, from the hour watch
ed you paddle off into the sunset in
your canoe, the thought of you made
the days brighter steadied and cheer
ed me, and awakened ambitions that
had forgotten-abandone ago.
And this hideous struggle here-it
seems so idle, so worse than useless
now! But I'm glad 1 followed you
I'm glad neither fortune nor duty kept
me back. And now L want you to
know that Pickering shall not suffer
for anything that has happened. 1
shall not punish him; for your sake
he shall go free"

Time and Sex Have CHANGED.

Men nowadays are ashamed-ab-
solutely ashamed-of rendering to
women any of the little delicate at
tentions and courtesies tnat in the
past endeared them to womanhood. A
man now raises his hat to a woman
not as a tribute to the sex, sign of
respect and observance, but more as
the enforced fulfillment of an irksome
duty. Where are the graceful curves
and fourishes of the hat, the step
back, the deep bow and courtly smile
of the seventeenth, nay even the eight
eenth century? Then it was a pleasure
to meet a man in the street; one felt
ones sway of sex Who is now inclined
to acknowledge hideous smirk and a
grudging touch of hat brim Lon

with sudden and violent pain, has

Where is the pain?" asks the doc
tor.
Right here groans the man, "and
lays his hand on the afflicted part.
The doctor opens his case of instru-

delicate compasses and a number of
finely graduated tapes With these
he proceeds to make precise and elab-
crate measurements, stopping at fire.

What are you doing?" cries the
man at last, for his pain is all the

Do you take me for a quack? You

hand entreatingly.
