feel that it is up To me To withdraw"

EYE STRAIN
Relieved by\Quitting Coffee.

Many cases of defective vision are
caused by the habitual use of coffee.
It is said that in Arabia where cof-
fee is used in large quantities, many
lose their eyesight at about fifty. Tea
contains the same drug, caffeine, as
coffee.
A N. J. woman writes to the point
concerning eye trouble and coffee.
She says:
my son was for years troubled with
his eyes He tried several kinds of
glasses without relief. The optician
said there was a defect in his eyes
which was hard to reach.
HE used to drink coffee, as we all
did, and finally quit it and began to
use Postum. That was three years
ago and he has not had to wear
glasses and has had no trouble with
his eyes since.
II was always fond of tea and coffee
and finally became SO nervous / could
hardly sit still long enough to eat a
meal My heart was in such con-
dition ] thought might die at any
time.
Medicine did not give me relief
and I was almost desperate. It was
about this time we decided to quit cot
fee and use Postum, and have used it
ever since. am in perfect health.

The Sphinx Looked Like This Some
$500 Years Ago, Says a French
Egyptologist.

Hippolyte-Boussac. con the head of
Ra, or Ammon Ra, were solitary disk
and two tall feathers. Representa-
tons of the head Of Isis frequently
show disk between two heifer horns,
surmounted by the inscription AS, rep
resenting her name. how're Toum's
head was decked with a full-grown
lotus, from which emerged symbolic
feathers.
''Thoth, the god of sciences, letters
and arts, was often shown with the
head of an ibis, having wig with lap
pets, surmounted by disk and cres-
cent. Examples might be multiplied;
similar characteristics appeared among
the other gods in the pantheons Of
the Pharaohs. With very few excep-
tions, these attributes are not confined
to one divinity exclusively. They
serve as emblems marking the roles
played by each god. The Pharaohs
themselves made use of them in the
performance of certain religious cere-
monies
"The Sphinx was the image of the
god Harmakhis-the sun at it's setting
"a divinity essentially funereal in as
pect. Thus is explained his place in
the metropolis at Memphis. AS with
the other Egyptian gods, his head was
surmounted by symbolic ornament,
usually the Atew, or disk of the sun,
which was worn also by Osiris, the
god Of the dead. This ornament con-
sisted of white crown with two os-
trich plumes, solitary disk and two
rams horns.
ct is know that the great Sphinx
of Gizeh was cut out Of a high cliff
on the edge of the Libyan desert. The
ancients were unable to fashion the
head ornament while sculpturing the
figure out Of the mass of rock, but
added it later. This, process is some
times followed in the case even of
statuettes. 1t was necessary to dig
deeply into the head in order to in
sure the stability of the lofty orna-
ment which surmounted it. This was
the purpose of the cavity which has
been discovered in the head Of this
Sphinx.
LAS the ornament was not mono
lithic, but was formed of superimposed
strata, it must have been compare
lively frail. It was threatened by the
lightning, the rain, the sandstorms
and winds of the desert. It did not
figure at all on the bas-relief of the
Sphinx in the time of Thotmes ~, in
the eighteenth dynasty, which was
shown crouching on lofty pedestal.
Doubtless in this epoch-about 1900
B. C.-the ornament already had been
destroyed. The Sphinx was then more
than $500 years old-older than the
Parthenon of our day--and in this
long stretch of centuries the symbolic
accessory might well have fallen vic
tim to the ravages of the elements.
I'm the temple of Djebel-Barkal the
disks, placed much lower and appar
emily being less frail, which surmount-
ed the heads Of the other sphinxes,
also have disappeared, although they
had been carved out of the same
block. When, in the sixteenth century
before our era, Thotmes w restored
the great Sphinx, doubtless he consid-
cred it inadvisable to replace an Or
nament which had not proved durable
But the lappets, of which no trace re-
mains today existed then, in part. at |
least. They are indicated in bas-
relief Of the eighteenth dynasty"
