She has just found that this order has been ignored to a great extent and she has issued another to the same nnrnnrt and in order to make it effective it is decreed that no man shall be eligible to any office in whose family there is female whose feet were not allowed to mi - i grow to the natural size, inis franchise qualification will no doubt have the desired effect. We suppose that in future the bigger the feet of the wife and daughters of a Chinaman the higher he can climb in the scale of public office. : of the approaches to the walls. But the camp reveals that tho relations between Israel and Eypt were not always such as have been supposed; that time brought its revenges, and that a great wall was built around the camp by the skilled masons of E?ypt a wall of finest limestone, in blocks brought from the hills twenty five miles away. Truly, when one contemplates this link of continuity of labor between the pyramids and the Assuan dam, one begins to sympathize with the Egyptians as a race who have never been allowed to cease from their building. A very interesting model of this primeval camp is among the exhibits. Not less fascinating is a piece of temple sculpture rep resenting Ramesas 11, slaying a Syrian before the Atmu. It form ed one of the temple as the Israelite city of Rameses at Tell el Retabeh. By the ancient site Avaris found the great mound and temple which Ouias, the high priest, built, He had fled from the persecutions of Antiachus Epiphanes and come to Egypt about 159 B. C. to found a new Jerusalem and raise a temple to Jehovah where the Jew might worship in peace. One of the most singular discoveries in connection with this temple was apiece of the builders' account shewing bricks to" have been delivered by a Jew named Abram together with othar details, which corroborates these that are set down in the history of Josephus.
