Show The Sphinx and the Infinite. I can imagine tho most determined atheist looking at the sphinx , and, in a flash, not merely believing, but feeling feel-ing that he had before him proof of the life of the soul beyond the grave, of the life of the soul of Khufu beyond the tomb of his pyramid. Always as you return to tho sphinx you wonder at it more, you adore more strangely its repose, you steep yourself more intimately in the aloof peace that seems to emanate from it as light .emanates from the sun. And as you look on it at last perhaps you understand under-stand the infinite; you understand whore is the bourne to which tho finite flows with all its greatness, as the great Nile flows from beyond Victoria Vic-toria Nyanza to the 6ea. From Robert Rob-ert Hichcns "Tbe Spell of Egypt," in the Century. Cleaner Streets for Berlin. Any Improvement in the methods of street cleaning is a step In the inter-ests inter-ests of public health, and is therefore of importance to all who are compelled com-pelled to spend their days In the big cities. A hearty welcome is therefore assured to the new motor cleanser which has Just made its appearance in the streets of Berlin. The machine has powerful water Jets In front and under its' center, while at the back Is fitted a rotary brush. As tho car proceeds the street is flushed and brushed, being left clean and comparatively com-paratively dry when It. has passed through. London Graphic. Tho Two and One Game. It takes two to make a bargain, but only one of them geU it. Puck. |
