AN ANCIENT EGYPTIAN.
Unrolling Penpl, a Contemporary of Elijah
and Aaab.
About 150 persons, who bad been in
vited to witness tbe removal of tbe mum?
my from its case, assembled in the anato?
mical lecture room anxiously awaiting
the ceremonies which were to be held
over an ancient Egyptian.
In tbe front of tbe room upon a long
table stood the r'ject toward which all
eyes were directed; tbe case, which was
covered with inscriptions and rude rep?
resentations, had been cut into and ar?
ranged in such a manner as to facilitate
the work that was about to begin. Short?
ly after 3 o'clock Prof. Tyler arose, and,
after a few introductory remarks, spoke
substantially as follows:
"This mummy was presented to Presi?
dent White and the university by Mr.
Pomeroy, Consul-General at Cairo. He
procured it at the necropolis, in Upper
Egypt, about a year ago, but was detained
at Thebes, by the ravages of the cholera
in Lower Egypt,-until fall. At Cairo a
French scientist translated tbe hiero?
glyphics which are upon the case, from
which we learn that this man's name
was 'Penpi,' and that he lived in the
twenty-third dynasty.
"There arc different theories advanced
why the Egyptians embalmed the bodies
of their dead; one, because it was a san?
itary necessity; another, because they
could not bury them"with safety; But
these theories hardly seem to be satisfac?
tory. By the inscriptions on tombs,
monuments, and on the mummies them?
selves, we learn that it was a sacred rite,
the expression of their faith and belief |
in their religion, which at that time was
a pure faith; they believed that life was
a conflict between good and evil,- and
that man's, destiny would be settled by a
final judgment, but evolution was silent?
ly working in the Egyptian faith as well
as science, though downward instead of
upward. . In consequence of this belief.
the friends did all they could to make
the, future of the departed bright and
happy and to protect him against the
attacks of the Evil One.
"from these figures here on the case
we see that the friends of 'Penpi' were
anxious to secure repose for his soul;
here? on his head is the sacred beetle,
around his neck is the representation of
a necklace, on his breast is the figure of a
vulture holding two seals in his claws?
an emblam of eternity?below is a spar?
row-hawk,- also holding a seal. From the
inscription we learn that 'Penpi' belonged
to- the twenty-third dynasty. Eight
hundred years B. C. kind frieuds laid
sway this body, which, to All appearances,
'has remained unharmed for nearly 3,000
years. We can hardly comprehend that
this man lived before the first Olympiad,
nearly fifty years before the legendary
founding of Borne, was a contemporary',
with the founding of Carthage; lived
200 years before Cyrus, 300 years before
Confucius, 750 years before Julius Csesar
invaded Britain, 400 years after the
Trojan war, 100 years after Homer, 222
years before Solon, 300 years before the
battle of Marathon, or in Jewish chronol?
ogy* 500yesrsafter the exodus, 175years
* after.Solomon, and was a contemporary
?of Elijah, Elisha, and.Ahab."
v:..PfQf. Tyler then introduced Prof.
?age, who gave a brief account of the
method pursued by the' Egyptians in
embalming the bodies of the dead. He
- said: "The process of embalming is very
simple, and is not, - as i3 generally sup?
posed, a lost art. After death the re?
mains were taken to the lower order of I
priests, who removed the soft parts of the
body, which was then placed iu a sort of |
brine and there soaked for seventy days;
it was then removed, and resin, cinna?
mon, myrrb, &c, were applied, this was
followed by a thorough drying. Some*
times the face was gilded, but only by
the most wealthy. The cost of embalm?
ing a body in this way was from $1,000
to $2,000; after the drying process the
body was wrapped, often 1,000 yards of
bandage being used.
"The cose about this mummy is evi
dently made of the same malarial as the
cloth wrappings but soaked in some
gum." ,. (
After- the speaking tbe mummy was
taken from the case and the unwrapping
commenced. Tbe bandages, which were
of a yellowish color, about ten feet long
and four inches wide, were made of linen
and fringed at the ends; they were put
on very symmetrically, one layer being
.crosswise, the.next up and down.
* The head only was uncovered in the
presence of the visitors. This was found
to be in a good state of preservation;
the hair had been shaven closely, but on
the back of the head a little could be
seen, which was of a sandy color; the
beard also' could; be recognized. The
face was of medium size, with a low
'forehead, a Roman nose, and rather high
cheek bones?altogether a good-looking
face, taking his sge into consideration
As the- unwrapping was going on a
grain : of wheat,- well preserved, was
found, which was placed in a bottle and
passed around that all might see.
Those present were asked to look at
the mummy as they passed out, an op
portunity of which nearly all availed
themselves.' After this the bandages
? were taken from the whole body. Be?
tween the legs parts of the viscera,
which had been taken from tbe body,
were four d carefully wrapped in linen
cloth. Tnc body was hard and of dark
brown color, five feet and five inches in
height, and the nails of the fingers, and
.. toes were as perfect as when tbe body
was placed in its narrow limits. A num
ber of small beetles that had bored tbeir
way through the case were found among
the bandages.

" -A^ Frenchman recently died who, it is
narrated on his wedding day some twenty
: years agd/took the original?pet haps it
may be said rather imprudent?resolution
to keep a yeai ly account of kisses exchang?
ed with his wife until their union became
severed by death of jne or the other.
He was destined to be the first to go, .but
when on his sick bed, foreseeing '-that he
would not recover, he b.eggedr;i friend to.
let the world know the result of his
twenty years' account-keeping. During
the first year of wedded life the kisses
exchanged reached the colossal figure of
36,500, or 100 a day on ah average; but
in tbe following twelve months there was
a notable decrease, not more than 16,000
being inscribed on his register; while
tbe third year shows a still greater fall?
ing off, the average number of kisses
being about ten a day. And after the
lapse of five years a further reduction is
recorded, and the account-keeper's task
is simplified, for only two kisses were
exchanged during each twenty-four hours
?"one on rising, one on retiring to rest."
Later on, during tbe last ten years of
his married life, they "only kissed each
other on leaving for, or returning from, a
journey:"? and he had very little trouble
in making up his annual domestic statis?
tics.? London Standard.
? The tallest girls are considered the
most beautiful at the fashionable water?
ing places this season. A Newport man
put his daughter's hat and gown on a
polo supporting a martin box the other
evening, and twenty-seven near sighted
dudes pawed up his garden while bowing
to the effigy, and caught such a cold that
they busted their trousers every time
they sneezed.
? "Thi? ring, which I would ask you
to accept of mo, is emblematic of my love
for you ; it has no end." "Thank you
very much, Mr. B.; it curiously resem?
bles my love for you; it has no begin?
ning."
? The houses built in London in 1SS3
would cover a street for a distance of
over seventy-five miles.
Charity of Speech.
It showsa noble heart to speak kindly
of the erring. Charity of speech is as
divine a thing as almsgiving or the char?
ity of action. The tongue that speaketh
no evil is as lovely and as much to be
admired as the hand that administers to
suffering humanity. To judge no one
harshly; to misconstrue no man's mo?
tives ; to believe things are what they
seem to be until the contrary is proven ;
to temper judgment with mercy, is
equally as praiseworthy as to build
churches, establish asylums and found
colleges.
Unkind words do as much harm and
destroy as much happiness as unkind
deeds. Many a heart has been pained
and wounded beyond the reach of the
cure effected by the healing balm of j
time; many a reputation has been
stabbed to death by the blight and the
sting of a look or a word. They have
destroyed the peace of families, parted
husbands and wives, and broken the
sacred ties of friendship between the
dearest and the most intimate friends.
There is a charity which thinketh no evil
and speaketh no evil, and which consists
in withholding words, .in suppressing
harsh expressions, in abstaining from
speech, when to speak is to censure and
condemn. Such charity hears .the tale
of slander under a protest and repeats it
not again; it refuses to be one to help
the ball of calumny and detraction roll
on, and will not be accessory to the cruel
and relentless butchery of character and
reputation.
While the busy, tattling and censorious
world is plotting mischie? and indulging
in whispers and insinuations intended to
wound the heart and mar the character,
charity sits dumb amid the chatter of
words and the shots of the sharp shoot?
ers, refraining from passing judgment on
that about which it knows nothing and
has no proof of any charges of wrong or
unfair dealing, and which, even if it had,
would prefer throwing the mantle of
charity or the cloak of silence over the
faults and failings of the earing. Chari?
ty listens in silence but refrains from un?
favorable comment, and locks the un?
pleasant secret up in the inner chamber
of the heart.
It would be impossible for slander and
detraction to prevail as widely as they
do, if reticence instead of promulgation
were observed as the universal and in?
variable rule. Could report, especially
unfavorable report, be furnished with the
swill feet and hundred wings it has if!
there were not so many willing ears to
hear, and busy tongues to tell, the dark
I and damning tale of calumny and detrac?
tion? It is speech, deep dark and vin?
dictive, that keups the fire alike and
lends vigor to the flame that scorches
the tender wings of innocence and love.
It is to the heart that is kind and
gentle that charity flies and takes pos?
session and broods gently and quietly
over it with the tender care and mild
peacefuloess of the dove. There it takes
I up its abode and makes its home, and by
I the words withheld and the kindly words
I obt-spokeo, we have seen that the dove
of peace was nestling in the heart. The
1 bosom that is filled with bitterness will
give expression to it in words. It sees
nothing bright or beautiful because it
? looks through a clouded and selfish vis?
ion.? Columbia Yeoman.
Why She Came to Little Kock.
Recently passers-by noticed a woman
standing on the corner of Main and
Fourth streets. She wore an old sun
bonnet and her dress indicated adversity.
A gentleman, moved by the spirit of
charity, approached her and asked :
"Are you alone ?"
"Yes."
"In distress ?"
"Yes."
"Have you applied to the authorities ?"
"Yes."
"Won't they help you?"
"The chief of police says he will do
all he can to assist nie."' -
"Have you a family ?' "
"Yes."
"Where?"
"Texas."
"How long have you been in Little
Bock?"
"Got here this afternoon."
"What i3 the nature of your distress ?"
"Why a confounded fellow down in
Texas fooled my daughter, stole my mule
and came to this town. I don't mind his
fooling 'Riah so much, but the thought
that he's got that mule goes through me
like a darnin' needle." ....
?? The man let a nickel fall back into his
pocket and strolled away.
A Case In Point.
Young Johnny Jarpley was inclined to
be .a good boy, and his mother spent
much time in instructing Lim in the
encrmity of the sin of telling falsehoods
and, to impress it upon him, wound up
by telling him that people who told lies
choked to death. When the Rev, Mr,
and Mrs. M?ckle were taking dinner at
the Jarpleys on a return call, the 'next
day, Mrs. Jarpley asked her guest: "So,
Mrs. M?ckle, you like my cooking ?"
"It is splendid, Mrs. Jarpley, just
splendid," enthusiastically responded
Rev. Muckle's lady. "Mr. Jarpley *is
fortunate in the possession of such an
excellent cook as yourself."
- Just as the lady concluded she took a
Bip of water, and a few drops "going the
wrong way," caused her to cough.
"There she goes I There she goes,
.mother!" exclaimed young Jarpley in
great excitement. "I heard her say,
when you was out of the parlor to Mr.
M?ckle, 'she wished it was over, as one
of your dinners was enough to kill a
mule and she wondered how your hus?
band had ever lived so long."? Pittsiburg

THE MINISTER WHO FAILS to interest hisGcongrega
tion and build up his church is generally accused of being a poor preacher,
or of not studying hard enough. -/That is not always where the trouble
comes from. Dyspepsia and liver disorders are responsible for many a
dull sermon and many a vacant pulpit, e When the Dominie's digestive
apparatus is working wrong and his nerves are giving him pain, and his
brain refuses to do its duty, it is almost impossible to make or to preach a
good sermon. , Give your suffering minister a bottle of Brown's Iron Bit?
ters. You will see its effect on next Sunday's preaching. The Rev. Mr.
Zehring, of Codorus, Pa., was paralyzed, and could not walk except with
crutches, until Brown's Iron Bitters made a new man of him. v.Thc Rev.
Mr. White, of Rock Hill, S. C, says: "It restored me to strength and vi?
gor."^ Brown's Iron Bitters is not only for the minister, but for all people.

Tho gentleman who outlines his case below is a
man considerably advanced in life, and Is noted
iwhiBjterllng integrity. His PostofficoIs Yatcs
ville, Upaon County, Ga. The following is
Mr. John Pearson's Statement:
In the Spring of 1882 I was attacked with a very
bad cough, which continued to grow worse until
fall, when I got so weak that I could not get
about. I tried a great many kinds of medicine
but continued to grow worse. I was notified that
I had consumption and would probably die. Dr.
Hollo way finally told me to try Brewer's Lung Re?
storer. They sent to Ward's Store and got a bottle
and I commenced taking it right away. After tak?
ing two or three doses, I began to Improve, and by
the time I had used up one bottle I was able to get
on my feet again. I am now In excellent health.
I am confident that the Lung Restorer saved my
life and my neighbors are of the same opinion.
It is the best Lung Remedy ever made in mv opin?
ion. Dr. H. promised me that he would write to
the manlacturers and tell them of the wonderful
cure it made in my case.
Statement of Mr. Benj. H. Hearndon:
Early in November, 1881, wh??ssewlngon tho
machine, my wife was taken with a rarere pain in
her aide, which was soon followed by hemorrhages
from her lungs and a severe cough. FeTet com?
menced, she could neither eat or sleep, ancNpa
few weeks she was reduced to a living skeletons
The attending physician told mo that be thought
one of her lungs was entirely gone. She could not
retain the most delicate nourishment on her atom*
ach. I then agreed with Dr. Sullivan, my family
physician, to call Dr. Holloway in consultation.
They made a final examination of the patient and
pronounced the case hopeless. Dr. Hofloway then
suggested the Brewer's Lung Restorer as a last
jesort. T sent for a bottle and gave her a dose. I
found that she could retain it on her stomach, and
after about the third dose, I began to notice some
improvement In her condition. I continued tho
medicine regularly, and by the time she had taken
two bottles, she was able to walk about the house.
She Is now in better health than she has enjoyed
for several years. I believe the Lung Restorer
saved her life. We have a family of six children,
some of them grown."

County, Ga. He is a thoroughly reliable man in
every particular.

POISON OAK
Seems to yield every time to treatment
with Swift's Specific.
Spartanburg, S. C, March 13,1884.
Your moat valuable medicine (Swift's
Specific) has done me so much good that I
feel like saying this for the benefit of those
who suffer like I did. I was poisoned by
poison oak. and saw not a well day for six
years, until I used Swift's Specific. In the
six yearsl used almost every kind of medi?
cine, but none bad the desired effect. After
using six bottles of Swift's Specific I am
restored to perfect health?with not a sign of
that awful poison left! Yours truly,
DAVID NE8BITT.
POISON OAK
I had for thirty-eight years suffered every
spring and summer with Poison Oak. which
I contracted in bathing when a boy. I
tried everything for it, including many
physicians, but without any benefit. I
took six bottles of Swift's Specific (S. S. S.)
four years ago, and it cured me sound and
well. Three summers have passed, and I
have had no retnrn of it.
Joseph Beasley, Columbus, Oa.
Remarkable Results.
I have had remarkable success with
Swift's Specific; have cured several cases
permanently in a very short time. One
case which I am now treating was given up
to die, and after using three bottles is so far
recovered that I think one more bottle will
cure her. The most remarkable case of all
was a lady with medulary cancer of the
womb, for whom I had no hope whatever.
After using one bottle I am satisfied she
will soon be cured.
