AN EGYPTIAN MUMMY.
II Poses as a Modern Oracle In the
British Museum.

Can an Egyptian mummy render
first class service "a an oracle: Can
the spirit of the dead return and
answer YES or no to the questions
of the faithful: Some people in
London believe these things are pos
sible, and they have the mummy
right in the British museum to
prove il. \ writer in the London
Mail tells all about it: This
strange sibyl is the mummy of
Ratchet. a prieSte>s in the temple
Amen-Ra at ThcbeS. 1t lies on the
top shelf of case p in the first
Egyptian room. 1t is one of the
most complete and interesting speci-
mems. The painted cartoonage head,
with its gildcd face, is inclined to
one side. giving a look of life On
the breast is a hawk headed orna-
ment containing a scarab, the sacred
beetle. On the wooden models Of
the hands are rings made of carnc-
Ian and precious stones, and an at.
tempt had been made TO initiate
bracelets by painting, The system
of swathing is unusual.
In wall case No. 10 stands Kate
bets painted wooden coffin. 1t
again is singular. On the foot the
feet and sandals of the deceased are
painted in an unusual manner, and
the face is evidently intended for a
likeness. The Lady Katebet died
in Thebes 1900 years ago. The
measures taken to preserve her body
in its full beauty were evidently
carried out with more than custom
airy care and fidelity. Is it possible
in this later world of miracles in
mechanical law that a miracle of
natural law is manifested here
that katebet's spirit ia in touch
with her body?
THE peculiarities of the num-
my make it easier 10 believe. but
the way in which answers to cues
tions are given affords a common
sense mechanical explanation. The
process gone through by the various
devotees at this queer shrine is a.
follows: They approach the case
