I see that Professor Petrie in his latest work advances the theory that Europe a not indebted to Egypt for its civiliza tion. The discover)' ba been rather late coming on the part of the archaeologist. I have Ions maintained that Egypt bor rowed fully as much of her civilization from Europe as did Europe from Egypt. European civilization was really au in dependent growth. Egypt and Baby- " 'uuy as lunch m they loaned Thin European civilization ac quired acts independently, just as India did. More than 1,500 years before the dawn of the Christian era civilization had auaue consiaerauie progress in Ureece and Lybia. A century later witnessed great proficiency in the arts. Moreover this civilization was not confined to a corner of Enrope. but stretched from the Mediterranean to the frozen north. Egypt and Babylonia-did not civilize Greece and Italy. Greece and Italy did not civilize the rest of Europe. They only ranked for a time as the farthest uvtiuceu in civilization, it was an in digenous development At last the arclueologists are stumbling onto this fact, long patent to the careful student and the knowledge appears to surprise them wonderfully.

It has the merit of being more distinctive at all events, as there are not many houses in New York that could stand the crash of an evening affair if the invitations were as general as those for a tea. Where a tea. is mvnn f. thar.n ( o uupuipuiKIUI introducing a debutante to society, it is becoming an unwritten law that thoseof her friends who have been invited to re ceive with her should remain afterward either to dinner or (as was done very uccessfully in the case of one young lady lately) for a sit down supper, a number of young men being asked to atay after the reception in informal fash ion. The dress of those who "assist" shonld not be too elaborate, as it is the debu tante that should be the cynosure of all eves. It is in bettor rjurji her friends to consider this and to wear less conspicnoos gowns themselves.- What Weeds Are. A weed is a Tilnnt that m., uumiuuuce out or desired limits.
