ISLE Of CEYLON
GARDEN OF EDEN
Many Believe This to be a
Fact.
SURROUNDINGS INDICATE IT
American Influence Decidedly
the Most Potent In
the Island.

Millions and millions of the devOut
Christians of the Orient and all the
followers of the Prophet Mohammed
believe that the island of Ceylon is
the Garden of Eden, in which the hui
man race first came to consciousness.
Connecting Ceylon with India and the
mainland of Asia is a low lying chain
of islands and sand banks known as
Adams Bridge. In the southern part
of the island is a beautiful noun
tain which has been known for GEN.
turtles as Adams Peak. A railroad
built like the Florida Keys Road to
Key West will soon run across Adams
Bridge to connect Eden with Asia,
and the angels with the flaming
swords who stand guard at the gate
will be made to do signal> tower SER
vice for a Government railway. The
high slopes of Adams Peak are de-
voted to growing tea for the after
noon dedication of some daughter Of
Eve, who has long ago forgot the
garden. the serpent and the exile.
But despite all these modern improve
ments and developments. Ceylon is
still Garden of Eden. although 1t
is much confused as to who is the
master of the garden.
Near the top of Adams Peak there
is a depression in the stone which re-
sembles footprint-the track left by
a. giant in the form of man. Good
Moslems and the vast majority OF
Oriental Christians firmly believe that
it is the footprint of Father Adam
when he turned to leave his paradise.
Good Buddhists believe that it is the
imprint of the bare foot of Gautama
Buddha, who brought the enlighten-
ment Of his wisdom to Ceylon. De-
yout Hindoos believe that the foot
print is that of one of the thousand
and eight manifestations of the sec
ond person in the Brahminical trinity.

So pilgrims of every religion make
their way to Adams Peak to pray
for the salvation of mankind at the
spot where many of them believe The
first sin came into the world.
Twenty-Five years ago Buddhism
was moribund in Ceylon. Hardly a
monk could be found, the temples
were given over to the proclamation
of the Hindus and their disgusting
worship. Everybody recognized that
Buddhism was dying out in Ceylon
just as it had already died in India.
Colonel Olcott resolved to reform
Buddhism. Enough of his Christian
training and Occidental heritage re-
NAMED with him to convince him that
faith, If IL have not works. is dead"
He established Buddhist college,
in which boys and young men were to
be instructed in the ordinary branches
of learning and in the pure precepts
of their fathers ancient faith. Soon
after came Mrs. Marie higgins, also
an American, who established sim
liar college for girls. The yellow
robed monks rubbed their eyes in
wonder, and then they, too, caught
some of the inspiration of the West
ern blood in an Eastern religion.
In this same Garden of Eden the
American laborers In the Christian
vineyard are also hard at work. The
American mission in the north of the
island is taking outcast boys and girls,
educating them, giving them English
names and setting them out on the
road to prosperity.
In Colombo there is an old Dutch
Presbyterian Church. the congrega-
ton dating from 1913, The present
church building was erected in 1749
and is the largest and handsomest
building in the city. 1t contains the
tombs of the Dutch Governors Gener-
ais and Admirals--a mighty host. Its
people are all "burghers," descendants
of the old Dutch colonists. Whether
the footprint on the peak is that of
Adam or Buddha or Vishnu, only the
tie pilgrims care. But there is no
doubt that to-day American influence
is the most potent in the confused
religions of this island.

BEAUTY AIDS Of
EGYPTIAN WOMAN
Who Lived About $3.50
Years Ago.
MUCH COSTLY JEWELRY WORN
Most Interesting Discoveries
Made by Some Recent
Excavations.

A pot of pomade for the complexion
is one of the many interesting relies
of long ago in the latest collection of
Prof. Flinders Petrie, who with stu
dents of the British School of Archae-
clogy in Egypt has just returned from
six months excavation work in the
ruins of TEebes and Memphis.
1t belonged to an Egyptian woman
of quality who died in the seven
teenth dynasty. some $3.50 years ago
A complete outfit of toilet requisites
was buried with her. The mummy
of the owner lies close by in the room
at University College where the col
lection is being shown.
The pomade pot is delicately
wrought in alabas;er. The prepara-
ton has endured its thi' ty-siX centu-
ries of burial remarkably we'll, and
still has a fresh perfume. 1t has not
yet been submitted To analysis.
TIE painted coffin in which the
mummy was found is hewn from a
sycamore trunk. Inside the coffin
was a wooden pillow or headrest in
laid with ivory and ebony, two bead
work pouches and a bead fly whisk.
The toilet articles were contained in
beautifully woven basket. Besides
the pomade, it held pots of prepare
ton for painting the eyebrows, a
carved horn to hold oil and a blue
marble dish resembling pin tray.
The Egyptian woman was rich IN
jewelry. On the mummy were found
al ticles Of jewelry weighing nearly
pound, and an eXquisitely made Cir
die CT eleCtrum (gold and silver alloyl
The gold ornaments include a heavy
necklace, -four bangles and pair of
earrings nearly two inches in dame
ter, Buried with the Egyptian woman
were also several interesting speci-
mems of pottery, a chair and foot
stool, cakes Of bread and dishes of
grapes. dates and other fruits.
A dried dome-palm fruit shows
plainly the marks of child's tceth.
A needlework outfit, which also form
ed part of the Egyptian wcman's
property includes bronze lieut.
ting-out knife, sharpening stone,
two flints and ball of thread. The
tomb was found at Thebes in a val
ley to the north of the Tombs of the
Kings and is probably the richest en-
tire burial outfit that has been
brought from Egypt. The coffin was
placed under only foot or two of
stone and earth.
The collection contains numerous
other items of interest to Egyptolo-
gists, including foundation deposits Of
a temple at Thebes, built by the high
priest Nebunnef, under Rameses H.,
various bronzes, specimens Of delicate
ivory carving, copper ringlets from 4
statue, sandal, pans CT blue and
green color, scarabs, and jars of Greek
forms of the seventh century b. G.,
with Greek monographs of owners,
showing that probably Greek garri-
sen was resident there at that limo.
There are also two colossal negro
heads, an alabaster female figure of
Mediterranean style and two collins
with mummies.
The great result of the years work
at Memphis appears to have been the
discovery of the palace of King APP
