EGYPTIAN CALENDAR

The study of the calendar in all its
various changes is most interesting.
The Egyptians divided their civil day
into the same number OF hours as is
the rule at present-twenty-f our-and
calculated twelve for the n q ! day
and twelve for the night, 4 count
ed from one to twelve for each pc
Rod. Practically they began their
civil day at Midnight, which was in
differently reckoned as belonging to
the preceding or the following day.
The Egyptian month was of thirty
days and they arranged their months
into three seasons of four months
each, which they called "sha" inunda
ton; per" winter, "shema," summer
There still remained some uncertainty
for the 'sha" season, for, according tc
the opts, there are four months from
the supposed beginning OF the rise o.
the Nile, few days before the begin
ming OF the summer solstice to the END
of the inundation. 1t would be natur
al, therefore, to be led to suppose tina
winter would be the cold season ane
summer would correspond to sprin!
and early summer.
The common year of the ancien
Egyptians is that which has been cal
ed the Vague year, because on acsom
of its length of 365 days, it fell shor
of a tropical or sidereal year and thu
passed through all the seasons. Tha

JUST MATTER OF DEDUCTION
An the Boy Explained 1t, the Finding
of Horse Was Really Quite
Simple Matter

Speaking of the development OF the
Storytelling talent in youth, Richard
Bennett the actor, is fond of relating
this incident:
Some years ago prominent citizen
of town lost horse. II was not
much of horse. In fact, it was blind
in one eye and spawned. But, per-
haps as relic, Bennett says, the
prominent citizen wanted the horse.
So he advertised. Offering SO reward
for its return. The town half.wit
boy Of nineteen, with a harelip, came
one afternoon leading the horse. with
q strap about the size of a shoestring.

horses owner was pleased.

Thousands Have Kidney
Trouble and Never
Suspect 1t
Applicants for Insurance Often
Rejected.

Judging from reports from druggist,
who are CONSTANTLY in direct touch with
the public. there is one preparation that
has been very successful in overcoming
these conditions. The mild and healing
influence of Dr. Kilmer's Swamp Root is
soon realized. 1t stands the highest for
its remarkable record of success.
An examining physician for one of the
prominent Life Insurance Companies, in
an interview on the subject, made the as
tonishing statement that one reason why
SO many applicants for insurance are re-
jected is because kidney trouble is so
common to the American people, and the
large majority of those whose applica-
tions are declined do not even suspect
that they have the disease. 1t is on sale
at all drug stores in bottles of two sizes,
medium and large.
However, if you wish first to test this
great preparation send ten cents to DR..
