LIKE THE EGYPT OF OLD
Country Has Seen Little Change
While tho Rest Of tho World
Has Been Advancing.

In journeying to Assouan from
Thebes the traveller cannot fail to be
impressed by. the two beautiful tenn.
pies of Edfu and Kom Ombo. The
former, situated almost midway in
the journey, is of special interest be-
cause 1t Is the best preserved of all the
Egyptian temples. 1t was a center Of
the Quilt Of Osiris, whose death and
rising again was celebrated every
spring within its close. The festival
began with deep mourning. Process
sions OF priests marched around the
walls deploring the death Of their god
in the contest with the evil one. In
ithe sanctuary lay the mummy, person
flied by priest, while priestess who
represented Isis wept over her dead
Ilord and begged for his return. At
last the resurrection morning came,
the mummy arose, and Joy reigned
among the worshipers. Again process
,sions formed upon the walls and,
marching with banners and musical
instruments, proclaimed the risen lord
to those who stood about.
A few miles away Is Kom Ombo, the
beautiful temple Of Sebek, the croco-
,dile god, whose devotees hated the
fworshipers OF Osiris as flercely as in
later times the followers Of the prophet
hated the Coptic monks whom they
found before them in this very valley.
Like Edfu, it dates from the days af
the Ptolemies. who built both build
ings on ancient sites. The rulers Of
that time were Hellenists, but their
architecture was that Of ancient
Egypt, 80 firmly rooted in the land
were the old dynastic traditions. Per
sian, Greek and Roman came and
carved their names upon the temples,
but left no mark upon the unchanging
spirit Of Egypt. Not even today is
there any alteration, for still the
houses in the villages arc built as of
old, and over them rise the pigeon
towers, veritable pylons, exactly like
the lowered gateways Of the ancient
temples. .-"Royal Temples of the
Nile," by William Warfield in Travel

Coal From the Arctic.


A few years ago, the idea of getting
coal from Spitzbergen, one Of the most
desolate islands Of the Arctic G 'ean,
was topic for romanoers of the an
day supplement type. Now it Is fact
Of considerable moment in many Of the
worlds markets A single company,
financed chiefly by American capital,
mined nearly 100000 tons of coal from
Spitzbergen last year. The deposit
Of fuel in the far North is said to be
singularly easy to work. 1t comes In
single scam about four feet thick.
stretching along the coast for 80 miles.
The surrounding rock Is 50 solid that
timbering Is not needed. The temper
ature is always below the freezing
point In the present workings, which
does away with the need Of pumps.
In fact tho only real difficulty is that Of
getting mcn-and motion pictures have
gone far to solve that problem. Yet
for every ton Of coal in SpitZbcrgen
there are ten in Alaska Of at least
equal quality, closer to q hungry mar
ket The arctic Zono won't make q
real dent in tho fuel market till our
big northwest territory gets in action.

Stop Slavery In Papua.

Our attention is called by the Anti
Slavery and Aborigines Protection So
ciety to tho fact that following the
publication Of an article by our Mel
bourne correspondent in the Daily
Chronicle which declared that slavery
was flourishlng In Papua british
New Guinca), an investigation was
made by tho Australian government
and severe action has now been taken
to ..,ng an end to the conditions we
described.
Among the allegations made were
that native police threatened men
with tho destruction Of their villages
II they refused to sign on for term
Of years; that many "boys" in one
division were actually handcuffed for
declining to come away at the bidding
OF certain professional recruiters, and
that all Of tho able-bodicd males Of ono
village had been captured.-London
