FORTY-FIVE CENTURIES AGO. WONDERFUL RELICTS OF ANCIENT EGYPT. THE TOMB OF A HUNDRED HAWKS. A display has been recently held at King's College, London, of the chief results- achieved by tho officers of the Egyptian Exploration Fund at Thebes during the past season. Accounts have already appeared of the discovery made by M. Naville, at Deir el-Bahari, of the soul-sanctuary <Ef the great monarch Mentuhetep, who lived 4500 years ago: From this, as well as; from the tombs of kings and queens and princesses, which abound in this sacred v?'ley, there have been brought away an amazing wealth of sculpture, somo of it representing, the zenith- of early Egyptian ' art, as well as a great mass, of other material. Here, upon ono wall, a king is depicted in the act of holding the hand of his.._ueen ; there is a princess bending' over a flower whose fragrance she inhales with placid delight. Above the portraits of a galaxy of queens there is poised a frescoed heaven of "the deepest blue, bespangled with golden stars. Here is a scene portraying the king holding an investiture, ana bestowing big royal favour upon a trusty chamberlain; close by you will note the keeper of the privy purse making an official round of the temple precincts. Among the funerary models hay be found the cowhide shields of the household troops, the crews of the royal yachts, symbolic ears, prescribed by the royal artists for the cure of deafness, the artificial flowers made of rushes in the manner of modern cripples. And here are some slabs from tha pavement of a shrine to which touring pilgrims were wont to resort, leaving behind them the rud» outlines df their sandals, inscribed within with their names.

Ut W. Pauley, Broad Lana, CetUnham, Cambridge, writes :— " Three years ago I had a slight attack of skin disease, and was obliged to see a doctor, who told me it was Eczema. I was under his treatment some time, but got no better. I tried, I may say, scores of other medicines, but all to no purpose, and I was, therefore, persuaded to go to the - Infirmary. There 1 was undo rspecial treatment, but got no better, and came out uncured ;in fact, worse man wuen in. x was new covered from hec_ to foot, aud waa tormented that I almost wished rayeelf dead; the medical man told me i K*«m'd never get better. I think I may truly say my case was one of the ffor.t it was possible te have and everyone said they had never seen anyone like mo. Well, at last I heard about "CLARKE'S BLOOD MIXTURE," and decided to give it a trial- I purchased some from BOOTH, the chemist, and took it according to rules for three months, mine being a dreadful case, and I am thankful te say I am now perfectly well, with my skin as clear as possible. It was CLARKE'S BLOOD MIXTURE which effected this wenderf ul cure, and ,• I cannot -*wec__mend i. too highly." "January 20th, 1900.' ' Private W. Lane, writing from the Depot, Wilts Regiment, Devizes, Nov. 14th, 1899, says: "For 18 months 1 suffered with a sore month and my lips were much swollen. I tried all kinds of .intments and med'eines, but with bo good reßult, and I began to thin, it would be a standing disease, until a friend of mm . advised me to send te your firm for a case of 'CLARKE'S BLOOD MIXTURE.' lam glad to say that before I had taken half the [bottle the sores in my mouth began to 1 disappear, and my lips be^an to get j their natural size.
