T Is not often that the serious science of archaeology is enlivened by a hoax, but one of a daring kind has re- ( cently caused considerable annoyance to Egyptologists in general, and to one wellknown scholar, Dr. E. ner. In particular.

Some weeks ago there was printed all over the world an account of some astonishing discoveries made in regard to the famous Sphinx at Gizeh. ilt stated that t)r. Reissner, who has .’for some years been working on behalf of the University of Harvard, had made some most astonishing discoveries in the Interior of the great ■statue of the Sphinx, which for cen’turies has been the of the royal necropolis at Gizeh. Had it not been for the unjustifiable use of the name of Dr. Reissner, ■who is well known as an explorer and one of the great authorities on the prehistoric antiquities of Egypt, the Account would have been treated with the ridicule it deserved. According to the account publlshed extensively in England and America Dr. Reissner had discovered a large temple over 100 feet long within the body of the Sphinx, and, connected with this by a tunnel, a second email temple, some 60 feet long by 14 feet wide, in the head of the Sphinx. The larger temple was described as the tomb of Mena or Menes, the first <jf the Pharaohs, and a drawing was given of an ebony tablet Inscribed in archaic characters which was said to lhave been found in the temple. The announcement of this startling ■discoveryj caused immediate inquiry. The chief authorities at the Cairo ■museum, Prof. Sir Gaston Maspero and Captain Weigali, the inspector of antiquities for the Cairo district; both denied the slightest basis for the report. No attempt to explore the interior of the Sphinx had been made, nor would any such explorations be allowed, as the nature and character of the monument are already well inown. Moreover Dr° Reissner has mot been working in the Cairo province this season, having been, as for the last few years, in Nubia -and the Sudan. The absence of Dr. Reissner from Cairo was no doubt the reason for the selection of his name in connection>uith the hoax.

The true story of the Sphinx, which is very simple, remains, therefore, unchanged. The great limestone block out of which the colossal figure is hewn forms the eastern termination of the limestone platform on which the pyramids are built. No doubt in the remote prehistoric times the projecting rock had become weathered into the rude outline of the human head and face. There are many similar wind worn rocks to be seen on the banks of the Nile, and there is usually a superstitious sanctity attributed to them by Arabs, no doubt inherited from thq old Egyptians. In early historic times, certainly before the age of the pyramid builders, some 4,000 years before our era, the figure was improved by human hands, the headdress and beard being carved, while in later ages the whole was painted red, which gives it the appearance of sandstone. Portions of the serpent which adorned the forehead of the Sphinx and of the beard are to be seen in the British museum. The nature of the stone and painting are clearly to be seen. [ The Sphinx of Glzeh figures little In Egyptian literature, the chief reference to it being in the time of Thothmes IV., of the eighteenth dynasty, B. C. 1450. It was this monarch who built or restored the small temple between the fore paws. In the large tablet at the end of the temple Thothmes tells an interesting story. The king had been hunting in the district and, being tired at noonday, lay down to rest beneath the shadow of : the Sphinx. During his siesta, the god Ra Heru i Khuti (Harmachis), to whom the i Sphinx was sacred, appeared to him ’ in a dream and ordered him to clear away the sand which had then, as • now, been wind driven to such an extent as to' bury the temple. This task Thothmes accomplished, but the time of Rameses 11. the ■ temple was again buried in the sand, i i In recent years it was cleared by M. i but is now nearly buried by - the desert dust again. A strange romance bf the east lies i hiddeja behind the history of a col- • lection of Persian lustre tiles that will be on exhibition in London next week: In the Maidan Mosque, at Kasah, there once stood a great Mih-

When he tried to get through the narrow door of the booth Dr. Zippert dis- ■ covered that it was much harder to get’out than it had been to get in, and afted several minutes of frantic effort his body was wedged fast in the door frame.

rab, or praying niche, that was made by the most cunning artists of the thirteenth century. Fifty years ago the tiles, which were made by a process of which the secret has long been lost, began to disappear. One by one they passed out of the mosque at irregular intervals. No one knew how they vanished or who took them, and when a guard was set to watch over the sacred treasure by night he was found in the morning strangled In front of the Mihrab. Far away, in Teheran, an Englishman, who was interested in Persian pottery, received occasionally beautiful glazed tiles from a mysterious native who could not or would not tell him where they came from. He continued to buy these tiles for fifteen years; one day he discovered that some of them, when placed next to one another, had readable Kuflc and Neshky inscriptions from the Koran. He began a great game of jigsaw with the tiles, and ultimately built up, with but few tiles missing, the famous lost Mihrab. The collection, which belongs to Mr. John Richard Preece, the Englishman In question, contains some other extraordinary relics, including a part of the tomb of the Prophet Daniel, covered with crude carvings, and an Armenian altar piece of twelfth century workmanship, In which all the divine and human figures are splashed with blood. One of the most valuable things in the exhibition is a carpet made for the Shah Abbas, who reigned from 1587 to 1628 A. D. This carpet Is thirtyone feet long by twelve feet wide, and its pattern reproduces the features of an old-time Persian pleasure garden.

NMLJS LOSS Government Document Shows a Deplorable Condition. Situation Has Improved Since the Operators Have Learned to Close . the Wells, but the Waste Is Still Immense In Places. * - Washington.—The history of the natural gas industry of the United States is an appalling record of incredible waste, according to Ralph Arnold and Frederick G. Clapp, authors of technical paper 38 of the United States bureau of mines on the subject, “Wastes in the Production and Utilisation of Natural Gas and Means of Their Prevention.” in this technical paper, which has just been Issued by the bureau, are the following statements from the authors: “There was evidently no great waste of gas in this country before 1873, as no large gas fields had been discovered, although gas was always wasted in oil production. In 1878 a well of great volume and pressure was struck at Murraysville, Pa., 20 miles east of Pittsburgh, and the gas from this well was allowed to flow to waste for three years, with no effort to check it. Up to this time the belief that natural gas was inexhaustible seemed to be universal, just as in later years a similar opinion prevailed regarding the forests, coal and many minerals, and hence it was not until 15 or 20 years after the first utilization of gas that the pronounced decline of production caused the truth to dawn upon producers and consumers —that the supply was indeed limited. / “The waste of natural gas has drawn the attention of the entire country, and because the waste threatens the life of gas fields it has prevented many investors from building plants in the various fields, thereby depriving the localities of increased population and wealth. In considering the question of wast«* it must be understood that the geologic occurrence of the gas in the sandstone, sand or limestone reservoirs is such that the flow of gas from one well causes a decrease in the flow of others and a reduction of the supply throughout the entire field. “Instances are common where carelessness and indifference in drilling have resulted in waste of gas from formations penetrated above the regular sand. "In other Instances, if the formations are loose, the gas sand fairly shallow, the pressure great, and the proper precautions are not taken in setting the casing, the gas may escape around the casing, loosening the ground rapidly, and ultimately gaining sufficient volume and pressure to blow the casing from the well. Such ‘blow-outs’ have happened a number of times in the Texas and Caddo fields. They are likely to occur in the first wells drilled In any field before the conditions attending the pockets are generally known. Some excuse may exist for the occurrence of one such ‘blo'tv-out’ In a new field, before the presence of the hlgh-pres-sure gas pocket is known, but there is usually little reason for a second or a subsequent “blow-out’ in a field, because precautions can be taken to prevent it "Waste in drilling is not so great as formerly, because at the present time drillers have usually every facility at hand to close a well as soon as completed. By proper preparation most wells can be packed, tubed and shut in within two hours. According to the conservation commission of Louisiana, the waste from the two principal ‘wild’ wells in Louisiana had its beginning more from a lack of knowledge of what precautions would be effective that from negligence or indifference. The waste from the first big gas well encountered in drilling for oil in the Buena Vista hills field of California was due to the unexpectedness of the great flow and to local inexperience In handling such pressures. This well was controlled only after a Texas operator had been engaged to do the work. "The most notorious waste at present is in Oklahoma, Louisiana and California. The commission on the conservation of the natural resources in Louisiana, after an exhaustive examination of the situation in the Caddo field, found that the waste approximated 75,000,000 cubic feet per 24 hours, an amount equal to 20 times what the city of Shreveport uses now in the same space of time, and equal to one-twentieth of the amount consumed by the entire United States. “It also found that the value of the gas wasted from a single ‘wild’ well in that state was in excess of $2,000 per day." DOUBLE BARRELED. Carter Glass, representative in congress from the sixth district of Virginia, had his picture taken in his office not long ago. While the photographer was arranging his camera Mr. Glass remarked that he hoped the picture wouldn’t flatter him too much. “I had some taken once,” he said, “to give to my friends. One I gave to neighbor down in Lynchburg, who placed it on the mantelpiece in the parlor. “Not long after it had been placed there, Aunt Hannah, an old colored woman, who had known me since I was a boy, was called in to help with the housecleaning. She was working away in the parlor when the mis-

Different. The dominie had said grace, when the four-year-old daughter of the hostess, who sat opopsite the minister, looked up and said: “That's not the kind of grace my papa says.” “No?” sweetly asked the minister, “and what kind of grace does your papa say?” “Why,” said the little one, “he came home late* last night, and when he sat down to the table he just said: /Good heavens! What a supper!’”

tress of the house came in to see how the work was progressing. “Aunt Hannah, resting on her broom, pointed toward the picture on the mantel and fsked: •“Missy, who am de gemman in da photograf?’ “The lady replied that it was Mr. Glass. “ ‘Does ye mean Marse Ca’tah Glass?’ inquired the old woman. ‘“Yes. of course,’ replied her mistress. “‘Well, fo’ de lan’ sake!” exclaimed Aunt Hanhah. ‘Ah guess Ah never seen dat side ob his face befo’.’ ” By this time the camera man had his apparatus arranged and the pictures were quickly made. When the finished product came to the office Mr. Glass glanced at them hastily and hurried down the hall to show them to his colleague. Representative Jones. Mr. Jones looked them over carefully, but passed no comment ) “What's the matter? Don’t you like them?” inquired Glass. “Why, yes. I like them,” repliedi Jones, “but who sat for them?” HOME LIFE OF CONGRESSMEN. In Congress Hall hotel, located near the Capitol building, eighty congressmen are domiciled. They are of all parties and beliefs, but on Sunday evening the neighborly spirit of all men of all climes is manifested. The program follows no order, and is lim< ited to no special number of “artists.” There is no lack of volunteers, however, and the piano is kept going with song and music. Congressman Falconer of Washington walks bravely to the piano and sings, followed by other colleagues, and down through the corridor ring the voices of the people’s representat&es in Sunday evening song. There is hearty and enthusiastic applause, and little groups gather all about the lobby, having a good old-fashioned time. Later in the evening the singing naturally drifts to the old-time songs; there is a hush, the chairs cease rocking, and the conversation softens as the old heart songs are sung, awakening memories of the folks at home —for there are congressmen who get homesick in spite of an attractive salary and the honor of serving the government under the Capitol dome. The heartfulness of the home life of the American people as Indicated in these gatherings of congressmen is one of the most fascinating and charming aspects of American democracy.—National Magazine. CAPITAL'S PURCHASING BUREAU By the establishment of a communal warehouse and the creation of a bureau which will supervise the purchase of all supplies, the local government of the District of Columbia expects not only to save thousands of dollars annually in the operation of the capital, but to point away for other cities to improve their systems. A special committee has been at work for some time past mapping out the plans. The main advantages that will accrue, the committee believes, will be the prevention of “leaks" in the acquisition of supplies through a coordination of the various purchasing offices. Equipped with a central warehouse, advantage also could be taken of prices when the market Is low. Another function of the bureau will be its supervision of property acquired, and it will be given full authority to demand an accounting from employes ' for the condition of municipal property. Inquiry into the proposed reform was made by Alonzo Tweedale, auditor of the district; W. A. McFarland, superintendent of the water department, and M. C. Hargrove, purchasing officer. The district commissioners have authorized the adoption of the plan. CROP PRICES LOWER. Producers in the United States were receiving for their staple crops 28 per cent less on June 1 than at the same time last year, 5.1 per cent less than in 1911, and 9.2 less than in 1910. The average price for corn on June 1 was 60.6 cents, against 82.5 last year; for wheat, 82.7, against 102.8; for oats 36, against 55.3; for barley, 52.7, against 91.1; for rye, 64.1, against 86.1, and for potatoes 55.2, against 119.7. Prices paid for meat animals on May 15, according to the department of agriculture, averaged about 10.7 per cent, higher than at the same time last year, 27.7 higher than twc years ago, but 4 per cent, lower than in 1910. The average price for hogs per 10C pounds on May 15 was $7.45, against $6.79 last year; for beef cattle $6.01, against $5.36; for veal calves, $7.17 against $6.23; for sheep $4.91, against $4.74, and for lambs $6.66, against $6.16.’ Wasted Telephone Talk. Those wlio have made a close calculation declare that from one-quarter tc one-half a minute is wasted by the average telephone user just in getting under way in talking. The necessary talk on the average could be condensed to one minute. The “goodbys” and the “don’t forgets” that exceed in time just the saying of these words once consume another full minute. This divides the average call into three parts, only one of which is indispensable. Cases are know where worneh subscribers call up a regular circle of friends every morning just for a chat. They have nothing important tc say, but treat the matter as if they had met their acquaintance or friend on the street and had stopped to “pass the time of day.”

The Present Value of Godliness By REV. JAMES M. GRAY, D. D. Dean <4 the Moody Bible Intitule Chicago

TEXT—“Godliness is profitable unto all things, having promise of the that now is and of that which Is to come." I Tim. 4:8.

There is something about this text which should give it peculiar in terest to young people, because the apostle Paul is writing to this young man, Timothy, about athletics. He is advising him to avoid profane and silly fables, and "gymnize” himself in godliness. “Bodily exercise.” he says, “proflteth a little, but godli-

■ 1 " ftyfrwEjjy

ness is profitable unto all things, having promise of the life that now is and that which is to come.” 1 would especially emphasize the “promise of the life that now is,” because that is what most young people are thinking about. They admit the value of godliness so far as the future is concerned, but that seems afar off. It is the present that concerns them, and if godliness can be of benefit to them now, they would like to know it You pay a premium on a life insurace policy for many years in the hope of securing an annuity in old age; or you venture your capital in an Investment with the expectation Os an ultimate profit, but godliness is not like those things. It is more like a comfortable estate in the hands of a trustee yielding a regular support, or a bona fide business which maintains the proprietor from the moment he engages in it. In other words, there is not a single want of our nature for which there is not a specific promise in the Bible ready to be made over to us if we comply with the simple and reasonable conditions. Is it food and raiment? "Seek ye first the kingdom of God and his righteousness, and all these things shall be added unto you.” Is it counsel and direction In our daily affairs? “If any man may lack wisdom, let him ask of God who giveth to all men liberally, and upbraideth not.” Is it support in old age and death? “My God shall supply all your needs according to his riches in glory by Christ Jesus.” The Testimony of Experience. But passing now from the testimony of the Bible reflect on that from observation and experience. Take the question of health, and the life insurance companies, just referred to, will tell you that they make special rates for those whose habits are supposed to be promoted by true godliness. Take the question of fortune, and while it is not affirmed that the godly always become rich in this world’s goods, yet they make better workmen, more judicious managers and clearer thinkers, all of which improves their financial status. “The blessing of the Lord it maketh rich and he addeth no sorrow with it” x Take the question of one’s influence and standing among men. Does not the world respect and value a truly godly man? Would not the world rather deal with men who obey the laws of God than with those who disobey them? A truly godly man will not sell his vote, nor defraud a neighbor, nor deceive a friend. He will give full measure and weight, and will tell the truth. These things make up his reputation and his character, and, as J. Pierpont Morgan testified before the congressional committee, they are his capital, and without a dollar in his pocket he can obtain credit where another, even with a well-lined purse, would not be trusted. Then, further, one might speak of the profit of godliness upon the various tempers and habits of the mind. It steadies the variable, it cheers the despondent, it brings peace to the conscience, so that even if a godly man had nothing to expect hereafter, it would be better, all things considered, for him to practice godliness for its profit to him here. What Is Godliness? But what is godliness? It is not merely making a profession of Christianity and uniting with the church, because there is such a thing as “the form of godliness without its power.” The thought of this text is addressed to a young man who was already a Christian; who had already believed on the Lord Jesus Christ, and had been regenerated by his Holy Spirit; and that to which he is urged is simply to conform his daily life more to the gospel he had thus embraced. To practice godliness, therefore, one must first be godly, and to be godly in the Bible meaning of that term, involves a clean heart and a right spirit which God bestows on them who accept him and confess his Son. “He that hath the Son hath life and he that hath not the Son of God, hath not life” (1 Jno. v. 12). The first principle of godliness is obedience to God, and the first principle of that obedience is submission to the yoke of Christ “There Is a tide In the affairs of men Which taken at the flood, leads on to fortune: Omitted, all the voyage of their life Is bound in shallows and in miseries.”

If fortune be taken in its highest and holiest sense, then the tide that carries thither is the Name Above Every Name, and "there is none other name under heaven given among men whereby we must be saved” (Acts 4: 12). “Now is the accepted time, today is the day of salvation” (2 Cor. 6:2). “Hear and your soul shall live.” Learn a lesson from the times. In these days men arq bent on the development of their outward man, but do thou, not neglecting or despising that, be equally bent on the development of thy inner man.

Franz Josef visited th» military academy at Wiener-Neustadt, entered a classroom and, saying to thoofficer hearing a recitation: “Don’tlet me disturb you,” took a seat. On thebench behind him he put his general’* hat, crowned with its bush of long straight feathers. A boy eyed the green plumes, then slyly stretched hie hand out and plucked one. Emboldened by success, he took four, and would have taken the rest had he not touched his emperor’s arm in the process. “What are you doing that for?” asked Franz Josef, viewing the depleted bunch. “For a souvenir,” the boy stuttered. “But why so many?" "My comrades would each want one, too,” was the frank response. "Well, I suppose there is no way iiut of it but to give you the whole lot,’” said the emperor, by this time laughing heartily as he tore loose the bush. Turning to the teacher, whose frown of horror had been lost on the smalk boy, his majesty remarked, “But, captain, you must kindly lend me your cay to go home in.” —Pictorial Review.
