MUMMY THAT OF ROYAL COOK
Importation That Has Interested
Psychologists Evidently Was
Wrongly Labeled.

1t develops that the mummy, the
importation of which has aroused pub
lie interest, is not that of Rameses H.,
but of his cook.
The discovery need not occasion dis
appointment. Cook or conqueror, they
are now alike. and. indeed, the desic-
Gated remains of the chef Of the
monarch who from all accounts was
the Louis XIV. of Egypt are In many
respects more valuable antiquarian
possession than the mummified body
of Pharaoh. Antiquity has bequeathed
US a surplus Of memorials of kings,
but only too few of cooks. We could
well spare bust of Caesar or ex-
change any amount of dry.as.dust
chronology for an effigy of Lucullus'
cook or of that Vatel of his day for
whose supplies Apicius found 100000
too little.
The interest Of the modern world
In history Is concerned less with the
great conquerors than with the lesser
lights, the artists and craftsmen who
planned aqueducts and built cathed-
rails, even those who were charged
with the preparation of Caesars cut
lets. The world is tired of kings. but
what would it not give for cuneiform
tile containing the menu of Belshaz-
ears feast? Meantime cook of the
Rameses dynasty is something.

Now that we've got you here, you

die determined.
1t looked as If they were about to
accept her invitation unanimously, but
Harry demurred He had to be al
Montgomery street and jackson by
one o'clock. Il hoped" he added,
glancing at Flora, that some one was
to drive me-part of the way, at
least"
Flora, with an unruly sense of dis.
appointment, yet opened her lips for
the courteous answer. But Clara was
quicker. She rose.
Yes" she said, "I'll drive you back
with pleasure"
Harrys glimmer of annoyance was
comic.

INJURED, not knowing whether she was
more embarrassed or pleased at this
high-handed dispensation which placed
her where she wanted to be.
But the way Clara had leaped at
her opportunity! Flora looked curl.
ously at Harry.
He seemed uneasy at being bounced
upon, but that might be merely be-
cause he was baked of a tete.s.tete
with herself. For while Clara went
on to the gate with their hostess he
fingered moment with Flora.
May see you to-night?"
"All you have 10 do is to come"
She gave him an oblique, upward
glance, and had pleasant sense of
power in seeing his face relax and
smile. She had dance for that even.
ing; but she thrust it aside without
regret. For suppose Harry should
have something to tell her about the
Chatworth ring? She wondered II
Clara would get it out of him first on
the way home.
The four left on the veranda watch
ed the two driving away with a sud-
den clearing of the social atmosphere.
In vain Flora told herself It was only
the relief she always felt in getting
free of Clara. For in the return of
the majors elderly Establishments, in
Kerr's kindlier mood, as well as in
her own lightened spirits, she had the
proofs that, with them all, some ten.
sion had relaxed. 1t seemed to her as

at the backs of the two women being
driven away, and then at Flora. very
good" he said, raising her parasol;
you are the deposed heir, and 1 am
your faithful servant"
But indeed do want to walk" she
protested, little shy at the way he
read her case.
But you didn't think of it until she
gave you the suggestion, eh?" he
Quizzed.
Her cheeks were hot behind her
thin veil. They were strolling slowly
up the board walk, and for moment
she could not look at him. She could
only listen to the flutter of the fringes
of the parasol carried above her head.
She felt herself small and stupid. She
could not understand what he could
see In her to come back to. Then she
gave side glance at him. She saw
an unsmiling profile. The lines in his
face were indeed extraordinary, but
none was hard. She liked that won.
derful mobility that had survived the
gatherings of experience.
AS If he were conscious Of her eyes,
he looked down and smiled; but
vaguely. He did not speak; and she
was aware that it was at her appear
ance he had smiled. as If that only
reached him through his preoccupa-
ton and pleased him.
But what was he thinking about so
seriously between those smiling
glances? Not her problem, she was
sure.
They had almost reached the ma
jor's gate. and 1t was now or never to
find out what he thought of her. She
looked up at him suddenly, with In
quiring eyes.
DO you think am weak?" she de.
manded.
The lines of his face broke up into
laughter. NO" he said, 81 think you
are misplaced"
She knitted her brows in perplexity,
but his hand was on the white picket
gate, and she had to walk through it
, ahead Of him as he set 1t open for
her.

were in sight waiting on the diminu.
tive veranda. Clara had q mild do
nestle appearance, rocking there be-
hind the potted geraniums. All the
windows were open into the little
shell of house. Trunks still stood
in the hall, though the Purdies had
been quartered at the Preside for
nine months.
In this easy atmosphere, how was
it that the thread of restraint ran SO
sharply defined? Clara and Mrs, Pur.
die were matching crewels; and, sit
ting on the top step Flora instructed
Kerr as to the composition of the
tropical glacier they were drinking.
Ten girls had probably SO instructed
him before, but it would do to fill up
the gap.
Like stone pumped into a pool
the major and Harry re-entered this
stagnation. They were brisk and
buoyant. Harry, especially, had the
air of man who sees stimulating
