An Egyptian mummy was presented by the American Consul at Cairo to a Phila delphia museum. A crowd was one day about the case, and was startled by a voice from among the multitudinous linen folds. “Open the Ixix! open the box I” said the voice. “Who sire yon ?” asked one visitor,more venturesome than the rest. “I am a descendant of the Pharaohs,” answered the voice. "What do you want?” “Ask yourself. Your, confounded Yankee curioaity has waked me up from the sleep of ages.
