J -Jj EAR the eastern boundary of pi I that level region of northern I \ Egypt known as the delta, once ^ ""il thridded by seven branches of the sea hunting Nile, Rameses II-, in tte fourteenth century B. C., erect? ed the city of Pi thom and stored his r-nj-t* there*'*'? "P-'? pfcbes o^er/tscsred its coffers, and he builded Pa-?amesu, In part, to hold the overflow. But he died before the work was completed by half, and his fourteenth son and suc? cessor, Meneptah, took it up and push? ed it with the nomad bond people that dwelt in the delta. The city was laid ont" near' the cen? ter of Goshen, a long strip of fertile .country given over to the Israelites since the days of the Hyksos king Apepa, near the year 1800 B. C. Morning in the land of the Hebrew dawned over level fields green with unripe wheat and meadow grass. Wherever the soil was better for graz? ing great flocks of sheep moved in compact clouds, with a lank dog and an ancient shepherd following them. The low, shapeless tents and thatched hovels of the Israelites stood in the center of gardens of lentils, garlic and lettuce, securely hedged against the in? roads of hares and roving cattle. Close to these were compounds for the flocks and brush inclosures for geese and cotes for the pigeons used in sacrifice. Here dwelt the aged in trusteeship over the land, while the young and sturdy bniided Pa-Ramesn. Sunrise on tile uncompleted city tip? ped the raw lines of her half built walls with broken fire and gilded the gear of gigantic hoisting cranes. Scaf? folding clinging to bald facades seem? ed frail and cobwebby at great height, and slabs of stone drawn and held by cables near the summit of chutes look? ed Eke dice on the giddy slide. On a slight eminence overlooking the -camp were numerous small structures of sun dried brick grouped about one of larger dimensions. Above this was Taised a military standard, a hawk up? on a crossbar, from which hung party? -colored tassels of linen floss. By this -sign the order of government was de? noted. The Hebrews were under mar? tial law. Before one of the tents an old wo? man knr^t beside' a bed ot live coals, turnmg a browning water fowl upon a pointed stick. There was little inside the tent ex? cept the meagerest essential furnish? ing. A long amphora stood in a tama? risk rack in one corner; a linen napkin hung pinned to the tent cloth over it; a glazed laver and a small box sat be? side it, A mai of braided reeds, the handiwork of the old Israelite, covered the naked earth. This served as seat or table for the occupants. Several wisps of straw .were scattered about, ? and a heap of it, over which a cotton cloak had been thrown, lay in one cor? ner. "Rachel," the old woman said brisk? ly. Evidently some one slept under the straw, for the heap stirred. "Rachel r the old woman reiterated, drawing off the cloak. Without any preliminary pushing away of the straw a young girl sat up. A little bewildered, she divested her head and shoulders of a frowsy straw thatch and stood erect, shaking it off from her single short garment.' She was not more than sixteen years old. Above medium height and of no? bler proportions than the typical wo? man of the race, her figure was re? markable for its symmetry and utter grace. The stamp of the countenance .was purely Semitic, except that she was distinguished most wondrously in color from her kind. Her sleep had left its exquisite heaviness on eyes of the tenderest blue, and the luxuriant hair she pushed back from her face was a fleece of gold. Hers was that rare complexion that does not tan. The sun but brightened her hair and wrought the hue of health in her cheeks. Her forehead was low, broad and white as marble, her neck and arms white, and the hands, busied with the hair, were strong, soft dimpled and white. The grace of her woman? hood had not been overcome by the slave labor which she had known from Infancy. She went to the amphora and poured .water into the laver, drew forth from the box a horn comb and a vial of pow? dered soda from tue Natron lakes and proceeded with her toilet. "Came some one?" she asked present? ly. Deborah pointed to the smoking bowl. Rachel inspected the fowl. "Marsh hen!" she cried in surprise. ?_"Atsu brought it." Rachel smiled. ."Thou art beset from jew direc? tion," the old woman continued dryly, "but thou hast naught to fear from him." "Nay, I know," Rachel murmured, arranging her dress. "lie would wed thee after the man? ner of thy people and take thee from among Israel," Deborah continued. The girl drooped her head over the lacing of her habit and made no an? swer. Hie old woman looked at her sh a rp'y for a moment. . "Well, eat, Kachel; eat," she urged at last. "Tue marsh hen will stand thee in good stead, and thou hast a weary day before thee." sn A Remenee of the Days When" the Lord P-edecmed the Children o f Israel From the Bondage of Egypt Elizabeth Miller Bobbs-Merrill Company Rachel looked at the old woman and made mental comparison between the ancient figure and her strong young self." With great deliberation she divid? ed the fowl into a large and small part. "This," she said, extending the larger to Deborah, "is thine. Take it," wav? ing aside tiie protests of the old wo? man, "or the first taste of it will choke me." Deborah submitted duly and consum? ed the tender morsel while she watch? ed Rachel break her fast. "What said Atsu?" Rachel asked aft? er the marsh hen was less apparent "Little, which is his way. But his every word was worth a harangue in weight Merenra and his purple wear? ing visitor, the spoiler, the pompous wolf, departed for Pithom last night hastily summoned thither by a royal message. But the commander returns tomorrow at sunset. This morning ev jery tenth Hebrew in Pa-Ramesu is to be chosen and sent to the quarries. Atsu will send thee and me whether we fall among the tens of a truth or not So we get out of the city ere Merenra returns. He called the ruse a cruel one and not wholly safe, but he would sooner see thee dead than de? spoiled by this guest of Merenra's-or any other. I doubt not his heart break eth for thy sake, Rachel, and he would rend himself to spare thee." "The Lord God bless him," the giri murmured earnestly. CHAPTER II. UNDER BAN OF THE RITUAL. OLY Memphis, city of Apis, hab? itat of Ptah! To the south and west of her the Libyan hills notched the ho? rizon. To the east the bald summits of the Arabian desert cut off the travel? ing sand in its march on the capital. To the north was a shimmering level that stretched unbroken to the sea Set upon this at mid-distance, the pyra? mids uplifted their stupendous forms. Out of a crevice between the heights to the south the broad blue Nile rolled, sweeping past 120 stadia, or sixteen miles, of urban magnificence and lost itself In the shimmering sky line to the north. The etty was walled on the north, west and south, and its river front was protected by a mighty dike built by j Menes, the first king of the first dynas ? ty in the hour of chronological day ! break. Within were orderly squares crosscut by avenues and relieved from monotony by scattered mosaics of groves. Out of these shady demesnes Marsh lien!'1 she cried. rose the great white temples of Ptah and Apis and the palaces of the vari? ous Memphian pharaohs. About these the bazaars and resi? dences, facade above facade and tier upon tier as the land sloped up to its center, shone fair and white' under a cloudless sun. Memphis was at the pinnacle of her greatness in the sixth year of the reign of the divine Meneptah. She had fortified herself and resisted the great invasion of ?he R?bu. lier gener?is had done battle with him and brought fcim home chained to their chariots. And after the festivities in celebra? tion of her prowess she laid down pike and falchion, bull hide shield and hel? met, and took up the chisel and brush, the spindle and loom, once more. The heavy drowsiness of a midwin? ter noon hod depopulated her booths and bazaars and quieted the quaint traffic of her squares. In the shadows of the city her porters drowsed, and from the continuous wall of houses blankly facing one another from either side of the streets there came no sound. Each household sought the breezes on the balconies that galleried the inner walls of the courts or upon the pillared and canopied housetops. Memphis had eaten and drunk and, sheltered behind her screens, waited for the noon to pass. Monti:, the king's sculptor, however, Liad not availed himself of tiie hour of ease. He ?lid not labor because he must, for his house stood in the aristo eratic portion of Memphis, and it was storied, galleried, screened and topped with its breezy pavilion. So M en lu labored because he loved to toil. He towered a palm in height over tis Egyptian brethren, and Iii- mas ive frame was entirely in keeping with his majestic sta ure. ile was nearly fiftj years of a?re, but no sign of the early deeaj' of the oriental was apparent j him. His was the characteristic r linement of feature that msrks tl Egyptian countenance, further acce] tuated by self content and some hat teur. That he was an artisan noble w? another peculiarity, but it was prcx of exceptional merit. He had d? scended from a long line of royal seul] tors, heightening in genius in the laf three. In the line of his ancestors t counted a king, and from that roys sire he had his stature. The sculptor, rapidly and without e: fort, worked out? with his pen on sheet of papyrus the detail of a friez< 'Tiny profile figures, quaint borders c lotus and mystic inscriptions traile after the swift reed in multitudinou and bewildering succession. As h worked a young man entered the dooi way from the court and, advancing few steps toward the table, watche the development of the drawings wit interest This young Egyptian, nearly eighi een. was grown and powerful with th might of mature manhood. A glanc at the pair at once established thei relationship as father and son. Th features were strikingly similar, th stature the same, though the youn frame was supple and light not mas sive. The hair was straight, . abundant brilliant black and cropped midwa; down the neck and just above th brows.' There was no e?ort at parting It was dressed from the crown of th head as each hair would naturally li and was confined by a' circlet of gold the token of the royal blood of hi; mother's house. The complexion wa: the hue of a healthy tan, different however, from the brown of exposun in that it was transparent and the re( in the cheek was dusky. The face wa: the classic type cf the race, for be 1 known there were two Physiognomie; characteristic of Egypt The forehead was broad, the brow; long and delicately penciled, the eye softly black, very long, the lids heav^ enough to suggest serenity rather thai languor. The nose was of good length aquiline, the nostril thin and sharply chiseled. The cut of the mouth and th< warmth of its color gave seriousness sensitiveness and youthful tenderness to the face. Originally the young man had beer gifted with breadth of shoulder, dept! of chest health and vigor. He woulc have been strong had he never vaulted a pole or run a mile. To these advan tages were added the results of wisc and thorough training, so wise, so thor? ough, that defects in the national phy? sique had been remedied. Thus th? calves were stanch and prominent, whereas ancient Egypt was as flat legged as the negro; the body was round and tapered with proper athletic rapidity from shoulder to heel, vrithout any sign of the lank attenuation that was characteristic of most of his coun? trymen. The suggestion of his presence was power and bigness, not the good na? tured size that is hulking and awk? ward, but bigness that is elegant and fine fibered and ages into magnificence. "Hast thou caught some great idea on the wing or hast thou the round ot actual labor to perform?" he asked. His attention thus hailed, the sculp? tor raised himself and answered: "Meneptah hath a temple to Set the war god, io mind; indeed he hath stirred up tue quarries for the stone, I am told, and I am making ready, for I shall be needed." "Hath the sun shone on architecture or sculpture since Meneptah succeeded to the throne?" the young man asked. Mentu's e.-'es brightened wrathfully, but the yo'Zng man laid a soothing palm over the hand that gripped the reed. "I do not mock thee, father. Rather am I full of sympathy for thee." Somewhat mollified, Mentu went on with his work. Presently the young man spoke again. "I came to speak further of the sig? net of llie Incomparable^J?raTiST1 ' "What, after three years. Kenkenes?" "The sanctuary of the tomb is never entered, and it is more than worth the journey to Tape (Thebes) to search for the scarab again." "But you would search in vain," the sculptor declared. "Rameses has re? claimed his own." "But we made no great search for it How may we know of a surety if it be gone?" "Because of thy sacrilege," was the prompt and forcible reply. "Osiris, with chin in hand and a look of mysti? fication on his brow, pondered over the misdeeds of a soul. Thou didst af? front the sacred walls of the royal tomb and call it the judgment of the dead. Not one law of the sculptor's ritual but thou hadst broken in the sacrilegious fresco." "The scarab may have caught on tl y chisel and broken from its fastening. ' "The hand of the insulted Pharaoh reached out of Amenti, the realm o? death, and stripped it off my neck," Mentu replied sternly. "And consider what I and all of mine who come after me lost in that foolish oct of thine. It was a token of special favor from Ramesos, a mark of appreciation of mine art and, more than all, a signet that I or mine might present to him or ! his successor and win royal good will j thereby." i "That I know right well," Kenke j nes interrxipted. with an anxious note ! In his voice, "and for that reason am I possessed to go after it to Tape." Mimetic art as applied to Egyptian painting and sculpture was a curious . misnomer. Probably no other nation of the world at that time was so de . voted to it. and certainly no other people of equal advancement of that or any other time so willfully ignored ? thc simplest rules proportion, per? spective and form. Tho sculptor's a)?;' iry to sugges? majesty and repose and at the same time ignore anatoiuicai ' construction was wonderful. 'J\> pre? serve the features and individual char? acteristics of a model and obey the mles of convention was a feat to be achieved only by an Eyptian. There was no lack of genius in him, but he had been denied liberty of execution until he knew no other forms but those his fathers followed generations before. Presently Mentu, raising his head, noted that the shadows were falling aslant the-'court. With an interested but inarticulate remark he dropped his pen among its fellows in an earth? enware tray, his plans into an open chest, and went out across the court, entering an opposite door. With his father's exit, Kenkenes shifted his position, and the expression Kenkenes gave thc man a smiling nod. of deep thought grew on his face. After a long interval of motionless absorption he sprang to his feet and, catching a wallet of stamped and dyed leather from the wall, spread it open on the table. Chisel, mallet, tape and knife he put into it and dropped wallet and all into a box near by at the sound of the sculptor's footsteps. The great artist re-entered in court robes of creamy linen, stiff with em? broidery and gold stitching. "Har-hat passes through Memphis to? day on his way to Tape, where he is to be installed as bearer of the king's fan on the right hand. He is at the palace, and nobles of the city go thith ! er to wait upon him." "The king was not long in choosing a successor to the lamented Amset," Kenkenes observed. "Har-hat vaults loftily from the nomarchship of Bu bastis to an advership to the Pharaoh." "Rather hath his ascent been slower than his deserts," "Who succeeds him over Bubastis?" "Merenra, another of the war tried generals. He hath been commander over Pa-Ramesu. Atsu takes his place over the Israelites." "Atsu?" Kenkenes mused. "I know him not" "He is a captain of chariots and won much distinction during the Rebu invasion. He is a native of Mendes." lieft "alone, Txenkenes crossed the court to the door his father had entered and emerged later in a street dress of mantle and close fitting coif. He took up the wallet and quitted the room. Passing through the intramural park and the chamber of guests, he entered the street and turned across the city toward the east. Memphis had pushed aside her screens and shaken out her tapestries after the noon rest and was deep in commerce once again. From the low balconies overhead the Damas? cene carpets swung, lending festivity to the energetic traffic below. In the district near the lower edge of the city be met the heavy carts of rustics, laden with cages of geese and crates of produce, moving slowly in from the wide highways of the Mem phian nome, The broad backs of the oxen were gray with dust and their drivers were masked in grime. The smell of the river became insist? ent. In the open stalls the fishmongers had their naked brood keeping the flies away from the stock with leafy branches. The limits of Memphis end? ed precipitately at a sudden slope. In the long descent to the Nile there were few permanent structures. Halfway down were great lengths of high plat? form built upon acacia piling. This was the flood tide wharf, but it was used now only by loiterers, who lay upon it to bask, doglike, in the sun. Presently there approached a corps of servants, bearing bundles of throw sticks, nets, two or three fox headed cats, bows and arrows, strings of fish and hampers of fowl. Behind, on the shoulders of four stalwart bearers, came a litter fluttering with gay col? ored hangings. Beside it walked an Egyptian of high class. Suddenly the bearers halted, and a little hand, Im? perious and literally aflame with Jew I els, beckoned Kenkenes from the shady j im T-ior of the litter. j .ic ci-eyed promptly. At another ??oitm?and the litter was lowered till J th? poles were supported m the hands I or the Dearers. The curtains were withdrawn, revealing the occupant-a woman. This to the glory of Egypt! Woman was defended, revered, exalted above her sister of any contemporary na? tion. No haremic seclusion for her, no semiconteraptuous toleration of her, no austere limits laid upon her use?. She bared her face to the thronging streets: she reveled beside her brother; she worshiped with Lim; she admitted no subserviency to her lord beyond j tlie pretty inference that it pleased ? her to pay; sh3 governed his household I and his children; she learned, she ! wrote, she wore the crown. She might ! have a successor, but no supplanter. Here. then, openly and in perfect propriety, was a woman abroad with her suitor. She might have been eighteen years M!M. but there was nothing Lrir];<h in her gorgeous beauty. She was a red rose, full Mown. Lier robes were a double thickness cf loose meshed white linen, with a deli? cate stripe of scarlet; her headdress a pingle swathing of scarlet gauze. SLie wi re not one. hut many kinds of jew els, and lier anklets and armlets tin? kled with fringes of cats and hawks in carnelian. Her hair was brilliant black and unbraided. Her complexion was transparent, and the underlying red showed deeply in the small, full lipped mouth-like a stain in tho cheeks, like a flush on the brow, and even faintly on the dainty chin. Her eyes were large and black, with the amorous lid, and lined with kohl be? neath the lower lash. Her profile showed the exquisite aquiline of the pure blooded Egyptian. She was the Lady Ta-meri, daughter of Amenemhat, nomarch of Memphis. The Egyptian accompanying the lit? ter was nearly thirty years of age. He was an example of the other type of the race, differing from the classic model of Kenkenes. The forehead re? treated, the nose was long, low, slight? ly depressed at the end. the mouth thick lipped, the eye narrow and alm? ond shaped, the cheek bones high, the complexion dark brown. . He was the nephew of the king's cupbearer, who had flied without issue at Thebes during the past month. His elder brother had succeeded his father to a high omce in the priesthood, but he, Xechutes, was a candidate for the honors of his dead uncle. Kenkenes gave the man a smiling nod and bent over the lady's fingers. "Fie!" was her greeting. "Abroad like the rabble and. carrying a bur? den!" She filliped the wallet with a pink stained finger nail. "Sit here,"-she commanded, patting the cushioned edge of the litter. The sculptor declined the invitation with a smile. , "I go to try some stone," he explain? ed. "Truly, I believe thou lovest labor," the lady asserted-accusingly. "Ah, but punishment overtakes thee at last. Be? hold, thou mightst have gone with me to the marshes today, but I knew thou wouldst be as deep in labor as a slave, and so I took Nectaries:" Kenkenes shot an amused glance at her companion. "I would wager my mummy, Nechu tes. that this is the first .intimation thou hast hud that thou wert second choice," he said. "Aye, thou hast said," Nechutes ad? mitted,' his eyes showing a sudden light He had a voice of profound depth and resonance that rumbled like the purring of the king's lions. "And not a moment since she swore that it was I who made her sun to move." "O Ma, goddess of truth," the lady cried, threatening him with her fan, "smite thou him!" The prospective cupbearer rumbled an order to the slaves, and they shoul? dered the litter. Ta-meri nodded a bright farewell, and they moved away. The sculptor, still smiling, continued down to the river. At the landing he engaged one of the numerous small boats awaiting a pas? senger and directed the clout wearing boatman to drop down the stream. "Set me down near Masaarah," Ken? kenes said, "and wait for me." The boatman effected a landing at a bed? ding of masonry on which a wharf had once been built The rock was now overrun with riotous marsh growth. The quarries had not been worked for half a century. The thrifty hus? bandman bsd cultivated hie narrow field within a few feet of the Nile, and the roadway that had once led from the ruined wharf toward the hills was obliterated by the grain. Kenkenes alighted and struck through the wheat toward the pitted front of the cliffs. At a spot where a great deal of bro? ken rock incumbered the ground Ken? kenes unslung his wallet and tested the fragments with his chisel and mallet It was the same as the quarry product -magnesium limestone, white, fine, close grained and easily worked. But it was broken in fragments too small for his purpose. At that moment his eyes fell on a block of proper dimensions under the very shadow of the great cube upon which he stood. It stood at the lower end of an aisle between great rocks. All view of it was cut off save from that position tak? en by Kenkenes when he discovered it With a laugh of sheer content he turn? ed to retrace his steps and began to sing.

Columbia, April 2.-The State su? perintendent of education will short? ly issue a pamphlet in regard to the establishment of high schools under the recent act of the general assembly. This pamphlet will contain a copy of the high school act itself, a copy ot the school bonding act; and a letter from Superintendent Martin in re gard to the methods by which high schools may be obtained under the act, together with the rules and regu? lations on this subject adopted by the State board of education at its meet? ing here last week. This will give those desirous of establishing high schools all the possible information necessary for beginning the work, and it is expected thal there will be a number of applications soon filed for this purpose, as there is evident? ly much interest in the high school matter throughout the State. The letter of Mr. Martin gives the information in condensed form, and is of interest just at this time. It is an follows: "To the People of South Carolina: The enactment of the high school law at the recent session of the legisla^ ture will mark an epoch in the his? tory of education in this State. It is a distinct effort to complete the out? lines of an educational system. Con? siderable interest has already been manifested throughout the State in the provisions of this act. There have also been misunderstandings JU> _rj-- ._ gird to what such provisions actually . mean. This pamphlet is issued with the hope that it may help communi? ties understand the law, and also that it may aid them in starting the ope? rations of the law in, their midst. "There are four distinct operations necessary before a high school can be aided under this act, viz: "An election, an application, an in? spection and a confirmation. "Care should be taken in the be? ginning to interest epople in a terri? tory large enough to support a high school properly. Section 1 of the act allows a county, a township, or several townships, an aggregation of school districts or an incorporated town of less han 1,000 population to form a high school district. It will be seen at a glance that a single dis? trict can not become a high school dist icc, unless it happens to be an incorporated town of less than one thousand poulation, A town of that size will probably be too weak to support a high school, so a high school district will necessarily be composed of two or 'more common school districts. It is a matter of co operation to do this work right This office will furnish the county superintendent with a petition form which will aid communities in calling elections. After an election is held and the trustees appointed the clerk of the board should fill an application blank which will also be furnished to the county superintendents by this department. The county superin? tendent will verify the application, keep a duplicate in his office and for? ward a copy to the secretary of the State high school board. When the high school board receives the appli? cation it will send an inspector to the proposed district. This inspector will gladly give any aid and advice which will enable such district to qualify under the act. When the high' school district qualifies the State high school board will make the appropriations indicated under the first part of Section 14 of the regulations. This does not mean that the high school may not receive more than the amounts specified. There will likely be a handsome balance at the close of the fiscal year which is to be dis? tributed to the schools which have built up a good attendance. Inasmuch as his act guarantees free tuition to the boys and girls in the State-aided high schools, it is just that a school with a large enrollment representing considerable territory, should receive substantial aid. It will mean much to the future of South Carolina if the provisions of this act are generally sought and generously applied. The prospects are that such will be the case. Let us all co-operate in this lauable ef? fort. Sincerely, O. B. Martin, State Superintendent of Education.
