THE (SULTAN WOULD ABOLISH
HIS HAREM.
•
It is said that if the Sultan of Turkey
;were allowed to consult his own tastes
he would only have one wife instead of
the 300 he now rnaintains in his harem.
He does not dare to abolish the institu-
tion, for he knows that the day he saw
the last of the royal harem would also
see the last of his reign. Each occup-
ant of the harem receives the title of
princess, hence it is the ambition of
.every Turkish officer to get his daugh-
ter into it. She is given a large dower
a staff of ten servants and a carriage
and four. The maintenance of the
harem costs the country!about $15,000,-
000ayear. Itisaperfectnest of intrigue
and scandal, of envy, hatred, malice
and all uncharitableness.

Tau frYBAKIDs.
Thousands of years before there were
aror dwellings on the site since occu-
pied by Jerusalem, Home and Athens,
at the very dawn of human history
when all the rest of the world was still
wrapped in the thick gloom of prehis-
toric barbarism, it vast town of huge
buildings rose not far from the present
city, on the other side of the Nile, which
was dotted with the boats of the an-
cient inhabitants. A forest of vener-
able date trees casts its shadows upon
the black soil, beneath which lie buried
the builders of this city of a world gone
by, of which nothing remains but the
vast cemeteries, their position marked
by an avenue of monuments. The fa-
mous pyraraids of Gizeh, opposite Cai-
ro, on the borders of the desert, form
the last of these necropoli.
Every one is familiar with the ap-
pearance of these strange pyramids,
these huge paradoxes of strictly geo-
metrical form, so vast and so lofty that
it was not until after fifty-eight centu-
ries of development that the human
race succeeded in ereeting
of greater height, whilst the loftiest
pinnacle of the most aspiring Gothic
belfry, however light and airy it be,
did not soar higher than the point of
the pyramid of Cheops before it was
blunted by time. Nothing could be
more confusing to the eye than the
general appearance of these heaps of
stones, in which no artistic conception
plays the slightest part. The effects
of perspective in these lines of mathe-
matical regularity are most bizarre—
huge bare triangles, the outlines short-
ened or lengthened, marked out like a
diagram by the sun into flat bands of
light and shade, the reflections in the
sand of the four mighty angles varying
according to the time of day. The
sloping sides, which at a distance ap-
pear absolutely plain, are, when ap-
proached more nearly, discovered to
be broken up into a series of projecting
stones, like a huge staircase worn with
age. It is somewhat difficult to judge
at first sightlof the size of the pyramid,
and the hest way is to measure the
height by climbing it! It is at a cor-
ner where the stages, which seem to
have been made for a race of giants,
at e divided into smaller steps, either
for the sake of mortals of lesser stature
or by the action of time, that the as-
cent of the great pyramid of Cheops is
made. We start, pushed from behind
by one Arab guide, and dragged from
above by another, with our eyes fully
occupied with the dangers of the climb.
Completely exhausted, altogether out
of breath, and with knees too stiff to
move we pause at last, feeling as if we
had Scaled all three pyramids at once.
But looking round, we find we are
scarcely one-third the distance up, and
see our fellow -climbers looking like
scattered ants upon theasuge triangu-
lar mass. It is not until the platform
at the top is reached, and the lungs
are filled with the pureair of the
heights, that any real idea is obtained
of the monument of Cheops.
And what does this huge edifice con-
tain? We must go down again to find
out.
The entrance, which was walled up,
is at a considerable height from the
ground. in of the faces of the pyramid,
and looks like the porch of a cave cut
in the living rock. A dark gloomy
looking door opens on to a low narrow
passage, with floor, walls, and ceiling
all lined with granite, polished till it is
like ice. An Arab guide,with a candle
in his hand, hoists you on to his shoul-
ders and plunges with- you . into the
slippery corridor, which descends ra-
pidly to a hole in the rock on a level
with the soil, going up again at the
same angle. This opening gives access
to a bare room, in which is a square
hole, once the resting place of the
mummy of one of the Pharaohs. The
rest of the interior consists of two or
three narrow passages, resembling ca-
vities made in oak timber by the tere-
do, with two other chambers similar
to that known as the king's, all faced
with granite, without a moulding or
ornament of any kind; airless enclos-
ures, where no chink admits a ray of
light or sunshine; huge masses of corn-
pactiimestone, wiraptsin utter night.
and silence. Such is the strange mon-
ument to build up which Cheops caused
mountains of stones to be removed by
whole nations of people, who perished
at their task beneath the whip of the
convict guards.—Harpers Weekly.
A PUNCTUAL RED MAN.
Matthias Splitlog, chief of the Wy-
andottes, lives in Kansas, and being
known to possess about a million dol-
lars worth of property, is called the
wealthiest Indian in America. Al-
though over seventy years of age, and
unable to read or write, he is a keen
business man. By his shrewdness and
ability he has acquired large tracts of
land in Kansas and Missouri, houses
and lots in Kansas City, and has mo-
ney invested in a number of paying
enterprises.
The white men to whom he gave a
$20,000 lesson in punctuality had per-
suaded him to sell them a certain tract
of land for $140,000, and were to pay
him the nioney at ten o'clock at a bank
in Kansas City. On the appointed
morning, a few minutes before the
hour named, the old Indian entered
the bank and took a seat, with his eye
upon a clock. Tim capitalists had not
appeared when the hands of the clock
reached the hour. As it began to
strike, the old Indian rose to his feet,
and at the last stroke of the clock he
promptly walked out of the building.
On the street, less than a block away,
he met the men who were to buy his
land hurrying toward the bank. They
begged him to return with them, but
he refused, saying that if t hey still
wished to deal with him he would meet
them at ten o'clock on the following
day, at the same place.
This time both the white men and
the Indian were prcmptly on hand;
but when the former offered old Mat-
thias the price agreed upon for the
land, he told them that while $140,000
was yesterday's price, to -day's price
was $160,000, and to these terms they
finally were compelled to accede.

a privilege enjoyed by no other laun-

(Sunlight Soap has been in use in Win-

also worthy of mention that such has
been the unparalleled increase in the
sales of Sunlight Soap, that the firm
has given instructions to their architect
to exactly double the size of their work
already the the hugest of theirkind in ex-
istence). When it is remembered that
the present works were only entered
upon in July, 1889, and that the main
building [covers four acres, some idea
may be formed of what colossal pre-
mises the forthcoming enlarged works
will bel It goes without saying that a
soap which has met with such pheno-
menal success throughout the civilized
globe must be more than an ordinary
soap. "Sunlight" has the world's re-
cord for honours and extent of sale,and
these laurels have been won principally
by the acknowledged superiority and
purity of the soap. In Canada the
sales of "Sunlight" are increasing at a
rate which must be gratifying to those
concerned in its success. — (Toronto
