The Waves We Live In.

TT is rather startling to learn, and
from high scientific authority, too,
that we are living most Of the time
submerged in waves to which the
greatest waves of the ocean are mere
ripples in point of size. When a our
rent of air blows across a water sur
face water waves are produced, and
when a current of air blows across
a surface of quiet air, or air having
a. different motion from the first cur
rent, then air waves are produced.
These atmospheric waves, we are
assured, have all of the phenomena
of water waves-troughs, crests,
foam. breakers and spray-but since
the qualities of air and water are so
different the air waves have dimen-
sions over $500 times those of the
corresponding water waves.
Thus the great ocean waves Of per-
haps 20 feet height would have at
mosperic counterparts extending up
ward a distance of 10 or IL miles
above the earth's surface.
The undulating movement Of such
air waves accounts in part for the
intermittent gusts of wind which we
notice so frequently in storms.

Archeologists Find His Mummy Wrapped in
 Gold

New York, Nov. if lR-That King Iut-Anl:h-Amen, who died in Egypt some 5000 years ago, was only Is years old when his body was laid in his tomb in the Valley of the Kings, has been definitely ascertain ed by the Psychologists.
 The age Of the pharaoh had been the basis for much speculation among those who uncovered the | tomb near Luxor. Howard Carter, who was the chief assistant to the i late Earl of Carnaryon in the work of eXcavatlng the tomb, had believed the youth was IS years old when he passed away, while others placed his age higher.
 When, however the mummy was taken from it's golden human shaped coffin and the wrappings about it were removed until the golden l sheathed body came into view, the experts after an examination estab. lished the age.
 On the head of Tut-Ankh-Amer i was tall crown Of gold. The hands were clasped across the breast. Or the side of the body were strapped two gold hiltcd swords and two knives, the handles of which also were gold. On the breast golden l stars were placed to mark the heart and lungs.
