Future Houses May Be
Warmed by Wall PAPER

A new kind of wall paper which
warns the rooms in which it is used
has passed successfully through Sc
ries of tests. 1t was fitted to the cell
ings of some of the cabins in the Ca
madam Pacific railways liner Duchess
of Richmond. Occupiers Of the cab
ms found that in the coolest weather
they were able to keep them at a
pleasant temperature.
The wall or ceiling covering, which
is British invention, Is constructed
rather on the lines of the suits worn
by airmen in very cold weather or
when they contemplate ascents to
great heights. Into the fabric of
which this clothing is made is woven
a network of fine wires through which
an electric current Is passed. The
current heats the wires and warns
the wearer.
These new wall and ceiling papers
are constructed of thin insulating ma
terial in which wires are embedded in
such way that they are invisible. By
connecting the wires to the electric
mains the walls and ceiling can be
made to give out gentle and pleasant
heat.-London Tit-Bits.

Early Egyptian Rulers

The Hyksos were, according to the
Egyptian annals, a conquering no.
madic race from the East, who, under
Salatis, their first king, took Memphis
and rendered the whole of Egypt trib-
utary. Their name probably means
foreign kings, the explanation shep-
herd kings, being of later origin. The
date of their invasion and conquest
was about 100 B. C. The seat Of
their rule was the strongly garrisoned
fortress of Avaris. on the northeast
border of the Delta. They followed
Egyptian customs, and their six mon
archs took Egyptian names. It seems
likely also that great part of Syria
was subject to them. The only de-
tailed account of them by any ancient
writer is an unreliable passage Of a
lost work of Manetho, cited by Jo-
sephus in his rejOnder to Apion.
