Temples of Babylon

The Deutsche ORIENT Geselschaft gives an
interesting account Of the past years excava-
ton work in three different parts of Babylon.
In the town quarter known as Kasr were
laid bare several hundred meters Of wall
about 35 feet thick, broken by numerous door
openings which were originally 1anked by
towers. The most interesting find here was
coffin of burned clay, on the lid of which was
a relief of bearded head.
Near the north wall o. the quarter known
as Sachn was discovereJ system Of drains.
built Of brick, laid in asphalt. Here were also
found several fragment of tablets with cuni-
form inscriptions from the time Of Nebuchad-
nezzar. This discovery enabled the eXcava-
tors to complete frag,nentary tablets discover
ed some time before.
The legend proved to refer to the building
Of the zigurrat, the temple tower of Babylon.
The beginning reads as follows: "Nebuchad-
nezzar, king of Babylon, reverer of the great

However, the worst experience of all came

When Marduk, the great lord, elevated my
head abased myself reverently before Mar
duk, the god who created me-"
Af&er this Nebuchadnezzar goes on to boast
that he made the temple brilliant as the day
with bitumen and blue glittering bricks" and
that for the same end he has had mighty ce-
dars prepared. The inscription ends with
Nebuchadnezzar's prayer that Marduk will
reward his pious deeds by granting him
eternal days"
Work was also carried on at the town wall
built by Nabonid, the last king of Babylon
who reigned 555-5SS, b. c. About 400 meters
of this wall were uncovered The wall is
about 25 feet thick and has a tower every 60
feet.

Changed Her Mind.

this place, Lille Gibson says: "About

nearly nine months. took medicines
from four doctors, but it didn't help
me. Sometimes, I would ache all
over, and I would have such a head
ache, had to GO to bed.

there is to it. l thought would try
Cardui. Now am cured of all my
troubles, and I shall praise Cardui
as long as I live. My sister said I
never would get well, but now I am
perfectly well, and I am thankful for
what the medicine did for me-"
Cardui is made from strictly vege-
table ingredients. It acts gently on
the womanly organs, stimulating them
to do their proper work, relieving pain
and restoring health.
Are you weak, tired, worn out? Do
you suffer from any of the pains Pc

record of more than fifty years In
relieving just such troubles.

PAINFUL FINGER NAILS CURED

'Ihave suffered from the same uou-
BILE (painful finger nailsl at different
periods of my life. The first time Of
its occurrence, perhaps twenty-five
years ago, after trying home remedies
without getting helped, asked my
doctor to prescribe for me, but it was
not for year or more that my nails
and fingers were well. The infamma-
tion and 'suppuration began at the
base Of the finger nail. Sometimes it
was so painful that I had to use a
poultice to induce suppuration. After
the pus was discharged the swelling
would go down until the next period
of Inflammation, possibly not more
than week or two afterwards. These
frequent i2sammations resulted in the
loss Of the nail. 7 had sometimes as
many as three fingers in this state at
one time.
Perhaps ten years later I began
again to suffer from the same trouble.
Again 1 tried various remedies, among
them prescription from doctor Of
a friend of mine, who had suffered
from a like trouble. This seemed to
help somewhat for time, but it was
not permanent. cure; next tried
prescription from my own doctor, but
this was so irritating to the sensitive,
diseased skin that I could not use it.

Ointment. I had used the Cuticura
Ointment previously on my children's
scalps with good effect. l did not use
the Soap exclusively, but I rubbed the
Cuticura Ointment into the base Of
the nail every night thoroughly, and
as often beside as I could. l had not
used it but few weeks before my
nails were better, and in short time
they were apparently well. There
was no more suppuration, nor infam-

Some months ago it suddenly came to the
ears of these interested parties that the will

tion-was in imminent danger of going utterly
to ruin. Obviously quick action and heroic
measures were necessary and thereupon there
was inaugurated that project which has lately
witnessed the complete restoration of the will
by means of a miracle of manuscript surgery
and document restoration carried on by the
greatest experts in the country in this highly
specialized line Of work.

trophy as the will of Washington should
have been allowed to fall into decay The ex:
planation is found in the fact above noted,
that the will is not and never has been in the
possession Of the federal government. 1t was
filed for probate in the year 1900 at the county
seat of the county in Virginia where Washing
ton resided and in that state it has remained
ever since. A century of wear and tear might
be expected to play havoc with almost any
document and at times during this cycle the
