TRAVELETTE
ABU SIAIBEL.
By NIKsAH

ABU SIMBEL.
~ HE temples Of Abu SimbeI are
a group OF rock-cut shrines in
= the banks of the Nile. The four
giant colossi guarding the entrance
to the main temple gaze TRANQUILITY
over the river from their rocky perch.
For ages these huge figures have
kept their vigil by the waters, weary
yet faithful sentinels Of the Nile.
They are supposed to represent
Rameses the Second, and smaller fig
ures OF the great kings queens and
children keep watch with their hus-
band and father.
Behind the colossi. over the temple
door, rows OF dog headed apes look
towards the sun in perpetual adora-
ton. The temple was built in honor
Of Ras the sun god Inside. in the
great entrance hall, IA himself with
Khem and two lesser gods. wait with
folded arms and solemn faces for the
offering OF worshipers long since re-
turned to dust. The halls are dark
and gloomy until the sun comes up
over the Nile valley. Then for a few
moments. sunlight slips past the
guardians at the entrance and strikes
shaft Of gold lights the dim halls
and turns the dark figures to statues
Of bronze and gold 1t fades again,
leaving the temple dark as before.
The walls and columns are covered
with hieroglyphics. telling the glory
OF Rameses' reign. the names and
number Of his children and queens
They tell OF Nefrere. his sister and
best beloved consort, Of the battle
with the Hittites. Of wars with Syria,
Libya and Ethiopia According to the
evidence set forth on the walls and
pillars Rameses had no small idea of
his own Importance.
At the foot Of one OF the eolossi a
soldier OF Psammetichus the Second

his name. idly obtaining Immortality.

A Skimmeryscam is like a Skeez-

afraid of getting anything in its teeth,
like popcorn kernels or pieces Of clam

"Burr-r-r-r!" hOwled the Skimmery-

have caught you'll"
Did you ever try to catch me be-

be polite. even to a bad animal
No, I never did" answered the

He was Just about to grab Uncle

That shows how little you know
about it, I'll show you" cried the
/ Slzimmeryscam- With that he knocked
the cover off the pail that had in it the
rice pudding for Cousin Lucy Oosie,
and the bad animal cried:
"Oh, that's just what / want" and
he started to eat the rice pudding.
But, almost the first thing he bit
on a raisin. and as the raisin had IN
it hard seeds, or little stones, they got
they made him so nervous that he
dropped the pail Of rice pudding and
cried:
"Oh, I made a mistakel I guess I
don't want you at ali, Uncle Wiggily!

and he pushed the bunny away from
him Uncle Wiggily was glad to go
and he did so, taking Cousin Lucy's
pudding, which was all right, having
only one bite taken out Of it
Mr.. Longears went on a little
farther and he was almost at Grandpa
GoOsey's house when. out from behind
a big stone jumped bad, old Scam
meryskim. A Scammeryskim is almost
the same as a Skimmeryscam, except
that the first named chap has a very
tender nose. 1t is more tender than
the nose of bear, and anything more
soft than bears nose is hard TO find.
Now I've got you'll" cried the Scam
meryskim, and he made a grab for the
bunny uncle. But Uncle Wiggily just
reached in the pail where Grandfather

red, white and blue striped rheuma-

And the hard stones in the raisins
hit the bad animal on the end of his
soft and tender nose, and away he ran,
crying and bowling.
"Oh, I've fallen downstairs and
bumped myself! I've fallen down

But he hadn't-it was only the
stony seeds in the raisins hitting him.
So Uncle Wiggily was safe and then
he took what were left of the pud-
