Youth Transforming
Operation Practibed by
Egyptians in 1900 B. C.
BY A. j. LORENZ,
Universal Service,


CHICAGO, June 19.-The opera
ton which Harold F. Mccormick,
multi-millionaire harvester magnate,
is said to have undergone in an ef.
fort to restore his youth. was
known to Egyptian surgeons 5000
years ago. Prof. James H. Breasted,
Egyptologist of the University Of
Chicago, said today.
Prof. Breasted has just completed
the translation Of the Edwin Smith
PapyrlIs, the most ancient treatise
on medicine extant.
The delicate operation for making
old men young, in which DIR. Victor
ID. Lespinasse, surgeon who oper-
ated on Mr.. Mccormick, has been
considered a pioneer, was performed
by Egyptian physicians, according
to the Smith Papyrus, Prof.
Breasted declared.

Breasted declared. magical for.

Unparalleled evidence of the ad.

spirit on the part Of Egyptian physi-
clans Of 1900 B, c. and earlier 10
contained in the faint tracings Of the
heiroglyphics on the mouldy roll OF
papyrus which he has deciphered,
says Prof. Breasted.
The incantations, to which the title
OF the chapter refers, the Egyptolo-
gist declared. is characterized by re-
lance on the magic OF the Pharaohs.
DR.. Breasted's theory Is that an
extraordinary book on surgery and
external medicine fell into the hands
Of an Egyptian quack at q period
when the study OF magic superseded
the study Of true science.
The quack became more interested
In charms for making old men young
and combined texts OF the earlier
physicians with his own cunsruous
theories Of magic.
Written About 1900 B. c.
The heiroslyphics OF the Smith

in the manuscript, which may In.

plantation Of glands to- restore
youth, may vet be discovered.

OBITUARY.

In memory of my sister, Mrs. Nam
!, cy ]. Brown.
The Angel of Death came on April
goth, 1922, at 10 o'clock a. m, and
severed the little chain that composed
the happy home of Henry and Hetty,
but God took the broken link and adj
ded it to a more extensive chain,
measuring an infinitely longer cir
Gle around his throne in Heaven, to
bloom in unfailing glory with loved
ones who have preceded her to man
sions prepared for the redeemed of
God.
Nancy ]. Brown was born Nov. 81,
1850 in Henderson county, Tennessee,
one month before the death of our
father, James w. Crook. She being
not yet named, our mother named her
James. Mamie as she was called, en-
deared herself to her brothers, sisters
and all her associates by her amiable
and gentle manners. Also by her
kind, obedient and effectionate dispoz
stion.
During a protracted meeting held
by our uncle, Elder William J. Hodges
in the Unity Baptist church, she was
happily converted, joined the church
and was baptized by him at the age
of about ID years.
Past the age of 10 years Mamie ].
Crook was married to John A. Brown,
of Mifflin, Tennessee, March 16, 1869.
Jessie McCollum and Miss Jennie
odorough were witnesses. To this
union was born three sons and one
daughter. Her husband and two sons,
Omar and Hubert, preceded her in
death.
Luther, the youngest son, ard
daughter, Hettie Rhodes, survive her.
My kind, patient and loving sister
is no more, but her memory like a
benediction, will linger in the hearts
of her son, her daughter and grand
children, with whom she was the idol
lied object Of care. My sister was
above II years Of age. Her long, use
full life will be sweet inspiration to
her church, community and county to
emulate her earnest, noble and Chris
tan life.
Son and daughter do not weep for
your mother. She has gone on to the
Paradice of God where she rejoices in
the immortal throng of those redeem
ed by the sacrificed blood Of Jesus
Christ. She has gone to meet her
Savior that she loved so well, and
about whom she delighted to talk.
There she awaits her loved ones whom
she left behind few years at most.
Her elder brother must follow in Z
happy meeting beyond the skies.

4 COMMUNICATED.

Editor Progress Mr.. Sullivan's
political activities reminds me very
much of one of Hambone's Medita-
tons, which is as follows: Zone reas-
on how come heap folks CANT make
bof Gems meet, deys tryin to wrop up
too big o bundle" So John tried to
wrap up too much politics in one bun
die.
/. 1 understand we are to have a pri-
mary election to nominate candidate
for the office of Register.
If Mr.. Sullivan wants the Regis
ter's office, let him resign as post
master, to take effect at once and not
three months hence, get in the pri-
mary and win back the nomination he
lost by reason of his having accepted
the postmastership.
1t was not because of Johns popu-
larity that he won in last August pri-
mary, but by reason of the great
prejudice against Woman Suffrage
and women holding office.
And John shares that prejudice.
What that nomination cost him, he
and the Lord only knows.
Mr.. Sullivan having seen the hand
writing on the wall, submitted to the
will of the party. John should take
himself out of the hands of his po-
litical friends and quit being led from
pillar to post and from post to pillar
by them, take hold of himself. put
some positive actions in his political
activities, some self assertion. ! have
always understood when man puts
himself in the hands of his political
friends he usually comes out at the
little end of the horn.
l want to suggest to the committee
when they meet that they pass the
following resolution or similar to it:
"If nominee of the party accepts a
remunerative office appointive or
elective, such nomination shall be de-
clared null and void by reason of the
nominee having accepted such office.
| believe such a resolution would
keep down future troubles in the par
~ along this line.

THE HOME OF THE SOUL.

In the olden times, it was believed
that the seat of the soul was the stom-
ach, most likely for the reason that a
man is never so completely used up as
when his stomach is out Of order. For
the cure of ordinary stomach troubles,
there is nothing quite so prompt and
satisfactory as Chamberlain's Tablets.
They strengthen the stomach and en-
able it to perform its functions natur-
ally. Give them trial. They only
cost quarter. All druggists.

1t pays to plant small grain on
good land. We have seen no better
Spring oats than those of Luther
Webb this year. The land is not nat
irally very fertile but was good
enough to grow red clover which ex-
plains why the oats were fine. In fact
we know of but one principle that is
not disputed by Henderson county
farmers among the many scientific
truths, and that is the value of red
clover as a soil improver, even though
it is mown for hay, and removed from
the soil.

Claudia Bowman brought US anoth-

on a square which had been punctur-
ed. He also stanted that his cotton
was in fine condition and that he had
already given it five CIVILIZATIONS. He
gives his cotton the first working
when it is about half up, with IA
tooth harrow. The Bowman boys have
a great reputation for growing cotton
and the fact that they keep the grass
out, doubtless explains why they
are well known producers of the flee
cy staple.

John McCollum finds that he is
able to get good stand of herds
grass by sowing it at once in soy

seed only is lost there is some excuse
for taking chances since it will no

grass which was partly seeded to

better yields of hay where this great

This is natures way of making nj
trates. If every farm was run to full
capacity with legumes, peas, beans

We would like to see Henderson
county produce a good crop of cotton
because we believe the price will be
good but the thing that we are afraid
many will do is to forget the impor-
lance of putting out plenty Of feed
crops so that what money we get for
our cotton will stay at home. We
have often said that the fleecy staple
is the best crop for us but we feel
sure that the corn farmer will come
into his own in 1922. Corn is late, and
what our yield will be is uncertain,
however, we can put ourselves in a
stronger position by planting peas,
beans, millet and sorghum for several
days yet.
