It is said that in h 'ight, weight and

average for the young women was height

The measurements were not us good for

The New York Evangelist tells a story
of the lute Senator Pratt, of Indiana,
which has a meaning both for hoys and
for mothers.
One summer morning, ten yours ago,
lie sal on the porch of his house over
looking the Ohio river, dictating the
history of his early life to his dinichtrr.
One reminiscence moved the old inuti
greatly. It was the account of a journey
which he hud made on horseback, when
very youog mau, from Indianapolis to
Cincinnati.
Some business men asked him to carry
large amount of money in bank notes
and deposit it for them in Cincinnati.
He gave no security, so absolute was their
faith in his honesty.
When he reached the bluff overlook
ing the Ohio, a largo steamboat, bound
for New Orleans, suddenly came rouuJ
the bcud. The thought rushed into his
mind, "Why not board that boat? It
would be yeurs before he could euro a
sum such as that which he carried. He
could change his name and be lost in the
South."
Success fortune waited for him.
But, with the thought, a sudden scene
flashed before his mind. An old gray
farm house in New England, and his
white haired mother sitting on the porch
reading her Bible.
Something rose in his throat choking
inn. tic turned his horse away limn
the river.
The old man suddenly paused here.
and after a moment said to his daughter:
I will finish this story another time."
She sat in silence watching beside him.
Ilis head dropped on his breast, and she
waited long for him to awaken, but when
she spoke to him he did uot an
swer. He never wakened from
that sleep. The list words of the
old Senator, who.e wisdom and in
tegrity were known to the whole nation.
were the story of the li ree tempt ilion ol
his youth Irom winch the mere ineiuioy
of his mother hail saved him.
We copy the st'irv lhat we tnuv a-k

The Kev. Elw ird L. 1 VII, of this city
(boru iu North Carolina) is collecting
material for a history of the efforts made
by the south for the moral clevatiou of
llie negro before the war. The tacts of
such a history, while not easily available,
are more ubundaiit than is generally sup
posed. Not only did the churches of the
south spend large sums ol money in
mi-sionary work among the blacks, but
it was not uncommon lor persons who
owned a body of slaves to have a plaic
of worship for them, and to have u
preacher employed for their special mill
istry. Moreover, every white church
had its contingent of colored members,
who had a voicj iu the management of
church affairs, and so sucred was this lie
that many of the colored people con
tinued their membership iu the white
churehas even alter tbey were ciuauci

as, for example, Stonewall ,) ieks n.

The Adonis of Egypt fi.1'10 years ago
is uginii among men. .Not us he was
when women bowed before him and his
every gesture was looked upon aim ist as
if it were that of a goil, but swailnd in
the habiliments of the regulation unitiiiiiv
utiirii's before imperial I'le-nr died and
turned today this man ruled the dwellers
nu2."ill,0(lll acres with u rod of iioii. The
women adored him for his beauty. The
men feared and respected him for his
wisdom.
Near the city of El Kab, which is
situated 75 miles north of the present site
of Cairo, there lies uu ancient cemetery
so old lhat even the meu to whom the
papyrus scrolls are as luiuiliar as the
waters of the Nile are unable losay when
it was first devoted to the purpose of
hoiisino the mortal tenements of the old
Egyptians. Tiic aieliu-iligi-t bus long
found it a fruitful field for research, and
many a mummy that today is gu. -d on
in the museums with round eyed wonder
was undisturbed hero for thousands of
years.
Il si happened that a short time uno
persons prospecting for new fields in a hill
in the cemetery dcsciibcd discovered a
little pit which apparently hud never been
made the subject of investigation. Ex
cavation brought to liht the laet that it
was not only some! hing new, but from
the urchie ilist's standpoint one if the
most importnnt finds iu a vry long lime
The lit was the entr iiieo lo u solid chain
her of rock containing a number of stone
Coffins or saieophaij. Besides tlo se there
lay up ul the fl or of the chamber n num
ber of stutu-'s. Ex iminuiion of the v.i
rious contents sho.ved tint one of the
sarcophagi eouluincd the mummy of
Neoklielia, aud llie nil of papyrus and
the inscriptions on the sure iphiizus b,th
gave the iuforin iriou til it these were the
mortal remains of "the m ist beautiful
nun iu E.'ypt mi l probably llie world.''
When the wrappings ol the mummy ol
this ancient Ad Ills K 're uulolded. til -le
was nothing lo indicate that the reiuiins
were thus" of a man of any beauty what
soever. The gtimiiug skeleton looked
ex icily like those of today. The only
o ld fuel was tint the shape of the skull,
the bun Is and the Icet were, while uu
misiakubly Egyptian, of more elas-ie
mold than those of most mummies The
formation of the skull also indicated that
its owner when alive possessed great
mental development, thus justifying the
pleasant things which were said about
hi.u in the perfectly preserved roll of
ancient manuscript which recited his his
tory.
Some of the iireloc ilogists here were
at the first incline 1 to doubt the accuracy
of the claims made regarding this find,
but investigati in showed that there w.is
j cause for doubt whatever. It would
ive beeu impossible to perpetuate a
fraud of this sort. The papyrus roll,
which told the history of Ncukhelta, set
forth that his domiuiuu extended over
t'2 miles of the banks of the Nile. His
idctice was termed Nishwaka, which is
supposed to lii 'au lhat the village where
lived bore lhat lillc. "tireat were his
II icks, oh, ruler of rulers," says the
in tnuscript. "None was so wise None
was so beloved. The sun smiled on him
