, The sphinx looks pretty much like
his pictures. Some idol lover, how
ever, has bitten off a part of one ear
and taken deep cash in his nose.

not said a word in over three thou
sand years.. lie, the sphinx, is sc
feet high, chiseled out Cf the natural
rock and stands down on lower
level from the pyramids, an idol sup
posed to guard the pyramids. There
is no question but you would recognize
his features from advertising matter
even if you have never been here be-
fore, but you might be slightly disap-
pointed in finding the sphinx much
smaller than what you expected to see.
However, a person should be satisfied
with the original since it has main
tanned such an even composure for 50
many thousand years, even in the face
Of adverse criticisms and comments by
visiting tourists.

Aside from this feature of the
country-the "gimme"-they are still
digging up the rich delta lands of the
Nile with a crooked stick and oxen;
using the old well-wheel spoken of in
the bible to draw water from the
wells; using the ancient jackass and
camel to pack high with loads.
Camel caravans come stalking
along, each looking like a big hay
stack, the camel practically hidden
from sight except for his head and
legs.
The old water buffalo is used on
carts hauling wheel loads. Aside
from the many fine buildings built by
the rich in recent years, and automO-
biles, one can read the old bible for
a descriptive scene along the roads
of Egypt. The droves of loaded
camels; the white-robed figure riding
the donkey (or burro); barefooted
bearers of burdens on their heads,
are all there as the tourist flashes by
in an auto.
The rich have built palaces, castles,
mosques and temples for themselves,
not in honor of their memory but
more in memory of their lack of honor.
The poor tread barefooted, bearing
their burdens along the highways.
Just as they did before Christ was
born and when Moses was found in
the bulIrushes.

me, rambling through these ruins and
palaces, temples, mosques and pyra-
,- bof ,sairry1 Of an q

mosque, my temple, my pyramid, shall
be the biggest, highest and best of
all in the world Let all the millions
sweat, work and die, that my name
may be engraved on the biggest
monument in the whole world"
That's the system that has evident
ly prevailed here since the days long
before the children of Israel were
made floating population during the
Red sea episode.
Cairo is very interesting city be-
cause of the ancient fables that have
come down through the ages. The
new section of Cairo, now the busi-
ness center for larger merchants, is
wonderfully we'll built city. The
buildings are constructed OF white
limestone taken from a vast quarry
adjoining the city. Old Cairo, which
is the largest part of the city, has
long, winding, narrow streets with
hardly room for two small carriages
to pass. The "bazaars," or shops, are
just vast conglomeration of holes in
the wall about large enough for the
ordinary bootblack stand. The front
is wide open, so the goods are all ex-
posed to dirt, dust and the inspection
of the passerby. Partitions separate
these stalls.
The shopkeepers seem to have no
idea of the eternal fitness of things.
A butcher shop with flies swarming
over the meat will be flanked on one
side by a blacksmith shop and on the
other by a silk shop. A carpenter
shop and an eating dump are chummy,
all in a .helter-skelter mess. These
streets wander away off out into the
sand hills some place. | never had

Business Has Grown
On a Side Street

Wallace Diplock has proved that it
isn't necessary to be located on a big
thoroughfare in order to do business.
The Diplock furniture establish
ment on Bridge street, for all it is the
youngest in Augusta and probably in
kennebec county, is mighty we'll
known. Wallace Diplock established
the business himself several years
ago and he has seen it grow and grow
until 1t is decidedly lusty youngster.
Mr.. Diplock started his business,
not in small way, but in a COM
paratively large way. He secured
what many will remember as the old
engine house on Bridge street, Just
above State. 1t was remodelled and
the goods installed. Low rent has
enabled him to keep down his over
head so that he has been fortunate in
enjoying a rapid over-turn.
1t is more than worth while to en-
ter the Diplock store, for here will
be seen everything that may be
needed for furnishing the house from
the children's room to the cellar. The
goods are attractively displayed and
as they are of the very newest pat
terms they make an appeal all their
own in addition to the low prices at
which they are sold. Diplock deliv-
ers by truck anywhere and the very
fact that his trucks are going pretty
much of the time shows that business
is booming.

Blaisdell's Business
Has Grown Greatly

Leon c. Blaisdell Of Gardiner stands
out as a real speed artist when It
comes to attaining success in a short
time. He has been in business for
himself, only two years, yet in that
time, his business has grown so that
he has had to seek and occupy larger
quarters.
Blaisdell is located at 174 Water
street, to which place he moved from
166 Water street where he began the
business. Stoves, furnaces, hardware
and similar merchandise is. carried.
But it is in the plumbing and heating
business that he has shown the great
est strides. At the start, the jobs
were small, but good workmanship
has brought more work and bigger
contracts so that now, while the small
job is as carefully attended to as
ever, the big contract receives the
same detailed attention as character
lied the breaking into business work
when Mr.. Blaisdell started. Andes
pipe and pipeless furnaces are hand
led at the Blaisdell store, another
proof of the good judgment of the
owner of the business.

Chenard's Home Kitchen,
A Boon to Housewives

Hot days bring cooking worries to
the housewife, but at j. A. Chenard's S
store on Bridge street are found the
means of doing away with many of
these worries. In addition to being a
mighty well equipped grocery store,
for all it is comparatively small. the
Chenard store has a home bakery
that has won an enviable reputat ton.
This bakery has been the result of
a steady demand for freshly made
goods. Always has Mr.. Chenard car
ried a liberal stock of bakery sup
plies. but fresh bread, rolls, and other
bakery foods have been wanted. Mr..
Chenard determined to supply them,
so the bakery was started.
1t has now been functioning for
about three months. Hot weather is
a time when every housewife wants
to get away from the kitchen as much
as possible. There is no reason why
she shouldn't for the Chenard home
bakery will relieve her of most of her
kitchen worries.

Digging Wells Calls
For Real Skill =

A we'll is much more than just a
hole in the ground these days. Wells,
especially artesian wells, are works of
skill.
N. w. Brown of 12 Noyes place, Au-
gusta, is an artesian well digger. He
is a successful one, too, for only re-
Gently he announced that he had con-
tracts that would keep him busy for
some weeks to come. Well digging,
therefore, is just as important as it
ever was. AS a matter of fact, the
digging of artesian wells has come to
be of much greater moment than the
digging of the familiar farm well ever
was. The sinking of an artesian well,
the locating of the vein of water, are
both jobs where experience and the
proper tools count for the most. Any
one may get the tools, but the ex-
perience is a thing hard to obtain.
Mr.. Brown has qualified with honors
in the school of experience and as a
result his services are in demand in
all parts of Maine
