Book of the Dead.

J sPhe Book of the Dead is a most re-
markable literary relic of ancient
Egypt, Of uncertain date and origin,
but well known before the kings Of
the first dynasty. Probably the COL
lected work of many minds in differ
ent ages, 1t was regarded as the work
Of the god Thoth and therefore Of d.
vine authority, dealing mainly with
the dead and their future state. Some
Of its texts, prayers, hymns and ritual
were used by the predynastic priests.
and parts of the book are said to be-
long to, period fifty centuries before
the Christian era. Copies Of it were
placed in the tombs, and texts from
it were inscribed on collins to preserve
the dead from dangers and to direct
them to- the boat of Ra on their way
to the hall Of Osiris. which was the
goal desired. The oldest existing papy-
rus copy Of the book was written for
"Nu, the son of the overseer Of the
house Of the overseer of the seal Amen
hetep and of the lady of the house
Senseneb" and probably belongs to the
early part Of the eighteenth dynasty.
- A 1enefcent Rule.

To what do you attribute your long

bigger man than myself. ""-Chicaso

ROADS FOR SP0TSYLvANIA

The friends Of good roads are neither
theorists nor missionaries. They have
watched for years the poor results In
road making from lack OF funds and the
no system plan OF doing the work. The
advocates of railways and waterways,
who urge the plan OF getting money for
the purpose. say, "sell the bonds aud do
the work In q businesslike way" The
men who are putting forth their efforts
in this direction place the wagon road
ways first in Importance. The road
ways are for the getting OF the products
OF the country to the railroads and the
water transportation. A saw mill man
only q lew days ago said he had paid
800 more during the winter for his
hauling than IL would have cost on good
roads A farmers wife said, we buy Q
new buggy every year and then only
have a broken down lot of vehicles.

THE CASE OF REV. ]. W. WEST

In the belief that stories sent out from
Lexington. KY, areexaggerated, officials
OF the Virginia Anti-Saloon League, with
whom the Rev John W. West formerly
worked In this city, are unwilling to be-
lieve the minister II guilty OF improper
conduct, as charged. Mr.. West has been
superintendent OF the Kentucky Anti
Saloon League, having held that posi-
ton ever since he severed his connection
with the Virginia Organization, more
than a year ago.
The Rev. J. ID. AeAlister, who succeed
ed him, II unwilling To believe the
reports. and says he will not talk oi the
matter until he IL thoroughly convinced
that the charges are true. Mr.. AcAister
is inclined To think there Is plan to In
Iufe the Anti-SalOon worker In spread
Ing reports. based on mere semblance
OF truth.
Mr.. AeAlister was In the city yester-
day. but left In the afternoon for Norfolk
be seemed greatly upset that charges
should have been brought against his
eo-worker. and his statement Is that Mr.
West, while In Richmond, conducted
himself In a manner not to create any
adverse criticism.
A letter received by him on Tuesday
stated that the Kentucky worker was in
I'll health, and would soon take vaca-
ton.
Ii was not until he left Catlettsburg
that the publication appeared in which
Mr.. West IL charged with various ad-
vances toward young girls. Certain OF
the Virginia Anti Saloon paen believe the
ahair TO be an attempt on the part of
whisky men to defame a vigorous
worker for temperance reform.
George NJ. Smithdeal, who Is recog-
nized as one OF the leaders In the prohibit
ton movement here, stated last night
81 don't know what to think Mr.. West
was not well educated man, but he has
powerfully ability. and is q vigorous
worker. | never heard ything against
him until the publication appeared In
