oVcIHcdu cciI1g SilQdeIIy rises
to IS feet high-just seven times
as high as the other part. But it
goes on up at the same angle, and
finally enters a fairly large room
with beautiful polished floor and
walls. More about all these
things later. Now we will 90
back to Prof. Smyth and see how
he figured out the date when the
Pyramid was built.
Gong down into the descending
passage and looking back up it.
Prof. Smyth conceived the idea
that it resembled a telescope
pointing up toward the Northern
heavens. OF course the telescope,
SO far as we know, is a modern
invention, and it ISM at all likely
that they knew anything about
such an instrument in the olden
times. But anyhow, Prof. Smyth
held on to his idea that the pas
sage represented a telescope. And
he reasoned that if it did, then it
must have pointed to some notable
star or constellation at the time
it was built. Accordingly he be-
gan to calculate backward
through the long ages to see if he
could discover when any star had
been at that particular spot in
the heavens. To us who are not
educated in such things, it seems
very wonderful that astronomers
can do that, but they ear. They
can calculate backward and tell
just exactly where any star was
many thousands of years ago.
and SO Prof. Smyth discovered
that in the year 217O B. c., his
telescope was pointed directly
toward the Dragon Star. OF
course we naturally conclude that
the Dragon Star is an evil stag,
and that any influence it might
have on the earth would be a bad
influence.
Having started out with the
telescope idea, Smyth decided
to try it out on the ascending pas
sage that points upward toward
the southern heavens. By the
same method Of calculation he
found that this upward passage
was pointing on the same date
(2170 b. c. directly toward the
Plelades-What we common folks
call the Seven Stars. Now it is
believed by many of the smartest
astronomers that the Pleiades is
the center Of the whole universe,
or at least it is believed to be the
|center around which our sun and
all Of its attendant family moves.
And besides being the center of
everything for us, the Pleiades is
supposed to exert some kind Of a
iGOOD influence over the earth.
The Bible gives Us a pretty plain
hint that such is the case.
Canst thou bind the sweet infu-2
lences of Pleiades job 1881.
Thus we see that the influences
THAT come from the Seven STAYS
are sweet and good, and also that
lthey are strong and powerful.
Seeing, then, how the two pas
sages correspondent as to date,

the hidden message that the Py-I
ramld contains. A young Scotch
man by the name Of Robert Men
Ties was studying the scientific
teachings Of the Pyramid, and
happened to discover an entirely
new line Of truth. Menzies found
that prophetic and chronological
teachings were hidden in it, and
that it is as important a witness
to divine truth as to natural
science.
The discovery Of the prophetic
and chronological features came
about through the efforts to find
out when the Pyramid was built.
Prof. Smyth, working from his
scientific and astronomical basis,
had reached the conclusion that it
was builtabout the year 2170 B.
t. But before telling how Smyth
got that date, | must go back and
give a few details about the struc-
ture itself.
The Pyramid stands on a solid
foundation Of natural rock. The
rock was levelled off and made
perfectly tt and smooth before
the building was started. Then
the great hewn stones were
brought and put in place. It is
not merely a wall built up, but It
is solid through and through.
There IS no hollow space in it
anywhere except three or four
little passages and rooms, and
they r of very peculiar con-
struction. It is built in perfect
pyramid shape-that is, sloped off
gradually from a large base to a
point at the top. Each layer Of
stone constitutes a step, and the
next layer drops back little, thus
making each successive layer that
much smaller around, until it
finally tapers off on all sides to a
sharp point at the top. That is
the shape Of it. And remember it
is solid through and through, with
the exception Of the few little pas
sages and rooms that | spoke Of
a bit ago. There is only one out
side entrance, and that is on the
north side and several feet from
the bottom. And that entrance
don't go straight in like you
might suppose, but starts right
downward at a pretty steep grade
perhaps 35 degrees or more. This
passage is low and narrow and
dark. It slopes OH down to the
solid rock foundation, and then
goes right on THROUGH the rock
at the same downward angle for
Iabout a hundred feet further and
Jumps off INFO a spit This pit
has smooth, polished sides and
top, but the bottom is very rough
land jagged, having sharp, uneven
1corners of rock sticking up all

to get about over. This unfnish-
ed bottom very naturally suggest

Don't Forget Our Boys.

The way Villas county went
over the top in the Fourth Liber-
tv Loan can show hut one thing.
That is that we here at home
have the best interests of our SOL
diers at heart, and will back
them to the finish. You fellows
in the trenches in France, and in
the camps in the United States,
just put it in your hat that the
home folks" are with you to
the end with everything they
possess. The Second, Third and
Fourth Loans went way over
the top i'll Villas. Not a bad rec
ord for this little county.

Back Up the Boys With Your
Support at Home-Uncon-
ditional Surrender Should
Be Your Watchward.

Germany is rapidly losing in
the great battle being waged on
the other side of the Atlantic.
She has now begun gigantic
move to gain by stealth, treach-
cry and connivance those things
which she sees herself no longer
able to approach along the
bloody paths of war.
Berlin will now launch several
peace offensives."
simultaneously with this will
come extraordinary activity
throughout America by German
agents, in favor of accepting
whatever Germany offers in way
of peace.
If we should be foolish enough
to even accept these German
propagandists' views, then we
will have fought this war in vain
and we will have placed the un-
speakable enemy in position
where hec begin all over again
the work of reorganizing for a
new conflict of world conquest.
We must place our faith in the
words of President Wilson. We
must know that neither the Ger
man nation nor the German SYM
pathizers can be believed. They
have lied, they have murdered,
they have pillaged, they have
raped-and when they advise us
to accept German peace they
are lying and deceiving in the

Krohn of Watersmeet.

A Watersmeet soldier has
written the News from the. bat
tie fields in France, but like a
great many of the Yanks over
there is to busy chasing after the
boche to give us anxious people
at home some of the sidelights
on the war question. PIT. Hen

is seeing real service. Krohn
was an employee of the North
western road in that Michigan
village and is we'll known to the
railroad men on the Northwest
ern. Was billing clerk at Wat
ersmeet at one time. He is with
c. E. 35th Engineers. He gets
the Villas County News and
commends Villas county people
for what they are doing for the
boys overseas. THIS in itself is
worth much to the fellows at
home who are doing their share
in helping the fighters across

pie who bought bonds and rem
dered them other assistance.

 PRAISE "HOBO'

Dr. E. J. Lyons, a prominent physi- elan (retired) of Lake Charles, La, has put himself squareiy on record in advocacy of the Hobo Kidney and Bladder Remedy, a medicine that is producing +ruly marvellous results for sufferers from Bright's disease and other kidney and bladder troubles. Dr. Lyons used the medicine on his wife. For three years she had suffered with urinary trouble. "I and other physi- clans treated her." he says, "but could give only temporary relief, the trouble always returning. Finally she could get no relief except when actually un- der the influence of the drugs" Af- ter taking the first bottle of Hobo Kid ney and Bladder Remedy she commen- ced to improve until she had taken ten bottles, when she seemed completely cured. He adds: "She has not had single recurring symptom and l con- slider her cure complete and perman- ent." If you are suffering with any form of kidney or bladder trouble, you should, for your health's sake, certain ly know more about Hobo.
