Pure HONEY $500
YEARS old FOUND
Found in 1905 in State Of Perfect
Preservation

Washington. D. c.. March 9,-Dis-
coyery in Tut-Ankh-Amen's tomb of
perfumes which still retain their
scent recalls the equally amazing find
In 1905 Of n jar of honey, still liquid
and still preserving its Characteristic
scent after $500 years
This remarkable announcement was
made in n communication TO the Ma
tional Geographic society by James
Baikie. The honey was found In the
tomb OF Yuaa and Thuaa, father and
mother of that Queen Tyi whose in
fnence played so great q part in Ak
henaten's religious reformation,
The tomb was intact and the OBJ
jects it contained were as perfectly
preserved as though they had only
been shut up a few weeks before"
Mr.. Baikie wrote. "An observer do
scribed his sensation on entering the
place as being very much like those
of man who enters a town house
which has been shut up for the sum
mer.
'Armchairs stood about, beautiful
ly carved and decorated with gold,
the cushions on one of them stuffed
with down, and covered with linen so
perfectly preserved that they r1ight
have been sat upon or tossed about
without injury Two beds of iine de-
sign decorated with gold occupied an
other part of the chamber while a
light chariot in perfect preservation
stood in a corner.
zone looked from one article to an
other with the feeling that the entire
human conception of time was wrong.
These were the things OF yesterday,
of a year or two ago."

AMERICANS COMPLAIN
Toes Being Stepped on

Berlin, March 9, (By The Asso-

toes are being trampled on rather
freely in the Ruhr occupation and
the Berlin and Paris embassies are
busy forwarding to Washington COM
plants from American concerns
whose goods are tied up by the ex-
port tax the French have imposed
and by the upset in the transporta-
ton situation.
Dye stuffs, silks. chemicals, ma
chinery, gloves and other manufac-
tured cotton and wooden articles,
make up most of the delayed ship
ments. Even goods which were con-
tracted for and paid for before the
French occupied the Ruhr are being
held. Concerns at Crefeld. the Ger
man silk center, have many contracts
with Americans for silks, velvets and
other specialties which are tied UP.
At least 40 per cent of Germany's
