Atflast the Judge intervened with an imperative hint to the learn- ed gentleman to conclude` his cross- xamination. The counsel, who re- ceived this judicial intimation with a very badgrace, before telling the witness to stand down accosted him with the parting sarcasm: `Ah, you're 8. clever fellow, a. very clever fellow!

Edwin James was noted for his con- summate impudence. At one time he lived in some` West End Chambers, for which the unfortunate landlord could never succeed in obtaining any rent. At last he had recourse to~an expedient which he hoped .m_ight arouse his tenant to a sense of his obligations. . He asked him if he would be kind enough to advise him on a. little legal matter in which he was concerned, and, on James as- quiescing,rdr.ew up [a statement spo- cifying his own grievance against the V learned counsel and asking him to state what he considered the best course for a landlord to take under` such conditions.

Many years ago, when John Gray first went to college, I had worked its col-- rse on a tobacco pouch. There had been something more than mere kindli- ness in our farewell on that occasion. He surely need not have sent the pouch to a rummage sale. " IL. ...I. A..__. -1 1.1.. .__:L h 7.- vw an ----.--ugav -- `The sale came 31! the nextday.

The Book of the Dead" is a most re- d markable literary relic of ancient Egypt, of uncertain date and origin. but well known before the kings of the s rst dynasty. Probably the collected work of many minds in different ages, ~_~1t was regarded as the work of the god ".l.`hoth, and therefore of divine author- ` ity, dealing mainly with the dead and their future state: Some ot.its texts, prayers, hymns and ritual were used by the predynastic priests, and parts Q of the book are said to belong` to: a period fty centuries before the Chris- tian era. `Copies of it were placed in` the tombs, and texts from it` were in- ` scribed on cotlins to preserve the dead from dangers and to direct them to the boat of Ra on their way to` the hall of : Osiri, which was the goal desired, 3 The oldest existing papyrus copy` of the _` book was written for Nu. the son of the overseer ot the house of the over- seer of he seal Amenhetep and of the ! lady of. the house Senseneb and prob- >ably belongs to the early part or the eighteenth dynasty. ` ` ~ _` m.`%u:?mua r at *F!.`*.*F,%Y13.t*nrie`9f $2-50-% % L - < 1...`;-._'._ ....l__A.I..j ..-Il-j __A 'rho Valley of the shadow.
