MENUS IS NO MYTH.
FOUNDER OF FIRST EGYPTIAN
DYNASTY REALLY EXISTED.
Hones nnd Seal Identified Wonderful
Proofs of Ancient History Lcadlajj to
the ftccongtructlon of thu Tradition ?
Until 2S'ow Doubted.
A very interesting discovery has >
been made by Dr. Borchardt .of the
Gizeh museum , which adds immensely
to our knowledge of early Egyptian
history , provided it is fully sustained ,
saj's the London Chronicle. The schol
ars have hitherto told us that the or
igins of Egyptian history were wrap
ped in absolute obscurity , and in par
ticular/that the founder of the first
Egyptian dynasty , whose name was
Menes , was a mythical person , like
Cadmus of Thebes , and old Anchises ,
and many other worthies , who , in sim
pler times , were regarded as real men.
To Menes was ascribed by the ancient
Egyptians the canals of Egypt and tbe
union of upper and lower Egypt into
one kingdom. Last year a tomb was
discovered near Thebes , and now Dr.
Borchardt 'has identified that tomb
with that of Menes , who turns out to
have been a real character. The bones
and the 'Seal of Menes , whose body
was burned , not embalmed , and the
inscription in which he calls himself
the king of upper and lower Egypt ,
have been so clearly identified that it
would appear there is little ground for
doubt. At least the authority of M. de
Morgan and Dr. Borchardt cannot
lightly be set aside and they are agreed
to this tomb being that of the real
founder of the first Egyptian dynasty.
In other words , Menes was no mytb ,
but a real human being , the founder of
a kingdom which endured , under the
guidance of a great and powerful
priesthood , for thousands of years. It
is clear that there is far more in an
cient tradition than the skepticism of
modern historians , especially of the
German school , has been wont to ad
mit. Much of the old Roman tradition
set aside by Niebuhr has now been vin
dicated beyond all dispute by the actu
al evidence of brick and stone. The
biblical records , which some of the cri
tics tried to dissolve into thin air , have
been justified by tangible evidence. One
scbool of critics resolved Abrabam into
a sun myth , but the personality of the
mighty founder of the most tenacious
race in human history stands cut again
in its imposing outlines. The German
advanced criticism of the new testa
ment has been pretty severely handled
by the still newer critics with the latest
learning. It seems not unlikely that
much of ancient history will be recon
structed , not as the subjective critics
who evolved camels out of their moral
consciousness imagined , but by a very
substantial incorporation of much that
was held to be legendary or mythical
into the surer history of the future. The
new history calls archeology , cranio-
logy and inscriptions to its aid , and so
earns for itself a position of strength
which before our century was un
known. The strange paradox is brought
about that the further we are removed
from ancient times the more we know
about them. In a special degree it may
be said that a fairly complete recon
struction of Egyptian history and reli
gion would be a most important contri
bution to the knowledge of the history
of mankind , and this knowledge seems
to be on the point of being obtained.
According to M. de Morgan , real Egyp
tian history begins with a race of con
querors whose origin was probably in
Babylonia. They brought with them
wheat and barley , the ox , the sheep , the
goat , the beginnings of writing , and
perhaps the use of tools. Tliey blended
with the primitive race living in the
stone age , and from that union the his
torical Egyptians proceeded. It was
this mixed race which built the pyra
mids and temples. So far , if M. de Mor
gan is to be relied on , and there are
few more trustworthy investigators ,
have the researches into the history of
old Egypt led us , and it is a long way.
Rabbit Luck for Fishing.
S. P. Lazarus tells of an odd experi
ence which fell to his lot some time ago
while fishing for bass in one of the
northern lakes. "While rowing the
boat across the lake , " he says , "I saw
something swimming in the water
some 200 feet away. I overtook it , and
discovered a rather tired rabbit swim
ming for dear life. I reached out and
gathered it in out of the wet , and with
a piece of twine tied the rabbit to the
seat , where it sat in the sun perfectly
quiet. It shivered for a time , but soon
became warm and animated. I kept
it in the boat the remainder of the
afternoon while fishing. Talk about
the hind foot of a churchyard rabbit !
It isn't in it with a live , four footed
rabbit. Bass began to bite , and in
short order I took in sixteen. When I
reached the shore the rabbit was re
leased , when , with a wink of thanks ,
he made a leap , and in an instant was
out of sight in the brush. I have tola
this to quite a number of my friends ,
and it has never been doubted. " St.
Paul Pioneer Press.

A V/O MAN'S
From the Rcolttcr-Gazcltc , llutkforC , III.
During the civil war nearly ab much horo-

as by the bravo soldiers. Many a womnu ,
weeping for her dead ton , bound np tbe

in their

tratiization known as the Woman's l olief
Corps , whoso aid to tbo Eohlier of today ,
Gghting against tbe world for a living , is
no less notable than the heroism of the
early 'CO's.
.One of the most earnest members of the
corps at Byron , 111. , is Mrs. Jamea House-
weart , but illnebs once put it ttop to her
r.ctive work. A year or to ago , when she
was nearing fiity years of age , the time
wben women must bo most careful of their
strength , Mrs. Honsewenrt was taken seri
ously ill. Tbo family pbjviciau told her
that she had reched a critical period of her
life , and mu t be very careful. Kis pre
scriptions and treatment diduot benefit Lor ,
and other treatment proved unavailing.
At last Dr. AVillicun's Pink Pills for Palo
People woio brought to her notice , with in
disputable evidence ibat they wore helpful
in cases cucb as hers , nnd with renewed
bopo she tried tbo remedy. LaM , March she
took the first box of the pills , which gave
much relief. She was determined to be
cured , nnd kept on with the medicine , un
tile now eight boxes have been consumed ,
and she fools like a new woman.
Mrs. Housoweart paid : ' ! have'tnken
only eight boxer , but I have besn improv-
Ing'sinee I took the first dose. I do not be-
Hevo I could have lived without the pills.
They certaily have done me more peed
than any physician or any medicine I have
over tried. "
