PATCHWORK AN ANCIENT ART
II Had Its origin Many Ages Ago
but Now Is Distinctly An Amer.
lean Institution.

The idea that patchwork had its
origin In America Is not founded on
fact. A thousand years before the
Christian era a queen Of Egypt went
down the Nile to her last resting
place under a wonderful canopy Of
skins that were dyed and pieced to-
gether in a mosaic pattern. Years be-
fore this work had reached perfection
and acquired definite place among
the arts. Then, too, patchwork quilts
were made in England in the Eight.
eenth century, as witness the lines
written by Cowper to a Mrs. King
upon receipt of "A kind present of a
patchwork quilt of her own making"
Patchwork is distinctly an Ameri-
can institution. In this big new coun.
try, where woman's work was never
done. where even the few convent
ences Of the day were lacking, women
had no time to spend on any but the
practical things of life The mothers
Of this nation left behind them no

Prayer Ten Centuries Old.

Among the documents and manu-
scripts taken by the Pelliot Mission
of France from a cave In Chinese
Turkestan. where they had lain dur
ing ten centuries, Is curious manu-
script recorded by the French Acad-
envy of Sciences. The manuscript is
in one of the oldest known Hebrew
texts. It is prayer formed Of pas
sages taken from the Psalms and
from the prophets, written in beauti-
full square Hebrew, with very rudi-
mentary system of vocalization. Evil
IDENTIFY the manuscript was carried on
the person of the man who owned it.
Hebrew scholars believe that the doc
ument dates from the eighth or ninth
century of the Christian era; and that
1t belonged to a pious Jewish mer-
chant of Arabia. No such paper was
known in Arabia in either the eighth
or the ninth century, therefore it is
supposed that the manuscript was
transcribed for its owner when he was
in China, where such paper was to be
found.-Harper's Weekly.

HITTITE DEITY IN BRONZE
statuette Of Goddess Is Discovered In
Egypt Which May 40 OF the
Time Of Joseph.

From Cairo comes news OF the dis
covery of bronze statuette which
may be of the time when Joseph was
sold into Egypt. 1t seems to be the
first discovered specimen OF Hittite
deity executed in the round.
1t represents a goddess standing
upon the back of lion, whose tongue
is protruding and tail turned up. The
goddess wears the Cappadocian or Hit
tite style of tiara and carries in her
arms an infant held to the breast.
No features of the work denote an
Egyptian artist, but all point to Syria,
and it is almost a precise copy OF the
Hittite reliefs upon the ruined palaces
at Boghaz, Kenoi and elsewhere, In
which the gods stand upon the backs
of animals. The proportions given to
the body and the arrangement OF the
hair are also Syrian, but the shoes
have not the upturned toes usual with
Hittite figures.
Should this statuette be accepted as
of Hittite workmanship 1t will give sup
port to the Old Testament statements
as to the existence of Hittites in south
ern Palestine and will tend to show
that the Hyksos or shepherd kings
who reigned for centuries in NORTH
Egypt were Hittites or of an alliet
race.
