s'Thebes the Hundred-Gated" Stands
Monument to Building Things That Last

: LUXOR, Egypt, Feb. :. -
"Thebes the hundred-gated," even
after it has lain desolate for more
than twenty centuries, is yet per-
haps of all the cities of the world
the most impressive.
Ruined, buried in the sand-drift
of ages, ThebeS remains more ma
jestic and awe-inspiring than any
of the proud capitals of our own
day. There is a simple grandeur
about the weather-beaten columns
of Karnak before which the glory
of all modern architectural efforts
pales into insignificance. st. Pau's
st. Peter's-tSe Madelaine-the
Cologne cathedral-they all look
like gingerbread in comparison
with the Theban temple of Ammon
even in its ruined state.
We come here, rather than to
noisy Cairo or to Alexandria, for
Thebes is EGYPT. This Egypt"
that is no wmerely a British prov
ince isn't really Egypt. The real
Egypt is just memory-but a
memory more glorious, we dare
aver, more august and wonderful
than imperial Britain can ever
hope to be when Britain is but
memory. And these ruins are the
pegs upon which this glorious
memory hangs.
Look as tie hr dland han wmef
Look at the picture. This is what
remains to us cf what was perhaps
the grandest work of the temple
builders of the Nile-possibly the
grandest thing of its kind ever
built by man-the great hypostyle
of the Theban temple of Ammon.
This hall was 33S feet by Ill, and
its roof was supported by 134 mas
s1ve columns. The great columns
that formed the central avenue,
shown in the picture, are &C feet
high and IL feet in diameter.
Thebes was a city of temples
and palaces and tombs and in the
height of it sglory it must have
been invested with a grandeur in
comparable to anything that we
know In these days. The mere ap-
proach to the great temple was an
avenue mile long, thanked by
rows ofegigantic stone sphinxes.
The pylon, or gateway that leads
into the temple Enclosure, was a
mas scf stone of $40 feet frontage
and 142 feet high.

LIVE STOCK FAIRS
BIG FEATURE
Best Herds In the Central West VIII
Be on Exhibition at Grand
Rapids, Sept. Ills.

Live stock forms, perhaps, the most
interesting feature of every fair. To
the farmer, the fine cattle. sheep and
swine exhibited are objects of wise
comparisons. To the city-bred man
and woman who knows nothing OF the
merits or dement's of the animals.
there is a fascination raised probably
by the beauty of the beasts and again
by the curiosity In seeing just what
the best samples of the creatures look
like.
This feature has always been one OF
the strongest in the West Michigan
State Fair, which exhibits at Grand
Rapids, September IL to is this year.
Every effort has been made to attract
the finest herds in the country with
special reference to those of Michigan
and to give opportunity to everybody
TO learn something about the animals,
their points of beauty and perfection
and how these points were produced.
The management of the fair has es-
tablished in the department OF cattle
a fine show ring with seats in the
form of an amphitheater around 1t,
where spectators may sit in safety
while the high blooded stock is
brought out and passed under the
hands and eyes of the most competent
judges to be found
1t has been customary for one or
the experts to give a little lecture on
the stock as it comes along, telling OF
it's points OF perfection and likewise
its faults and how to remedy them.
This has proven most instructive to
farmers and cattle raisers and gen.
eral Improvement in the cattle OF
western Michigan may be traceable TO
some considerable extent TO this fea-
ture of the West Michigan State Fair.
The same practice has been followed
with reference to the sheep and swine
and in all departments the fair OIL
Gals have reserved the right to debar
from the grounds any stock which Is
not up to the highest standard ana
therefore give to the people only the
best that is raised
II was at this fair the first herd OF
Brown Swiss cattle was shown In
Michigan. That attracted much atten'
ton and now there are large mum
Der of herds in the state and each
year several are entered in the classes
offered for them.

stock departments are: w. F. Raven,

Railway Yard Plants.

II has been noticed that many plants

found growing In the neighberhood Of
great railroad yards. Sometimes the
seeds of these plants have been
brought thousands of miles from their
natural habitat. Often they flourish
amid their new surroundings and grad.
ually spread over the surrounding
country. Thus the trains carry un.

from the gulf region and some from
