a loud and clear voice;
*tlie Ilona await thee.’
“'I am ready,’ Halt] the Athenian. He
hud bent IiIh limbs ho iih to give him*
He If the fir meat posture at the expect-
ed rush of ttie lion, with IiIh small and
shining weapons mlsed on high, In ttie
faint hope that one well-directed
thrust might penetrate through the eye
to the hrafn of his grim foe.
"Hut to the unutterable astonish-
ment of all, the beast seemed not even
aware of the presence :>f the crim-
inal. At the first moment of Its re-
lease It halted abruptly In the arena,
raised Itself half on end, snuffing the
upward air with impatient sighs; then
suddenly It sprang forward, hut not
on the Athenian. At half-speed
circled round and round the space,
turning Its vast head from side to side
with an anxious and perturbed gaze,
as if seeking only some avenue of os
cape; once or twice It endeavored to
leap up the parapet that divided It
from the audience, and, on falling, ut
tered rather a baffled howl than Its
deep-toned and kingly roar. It evinced
no sign either of wrath or hunger; Its
tall drooped along the sand. Instead of
lashing Its gnurit sides; and its eye,
though It wandered at times to Glau-
cus, rolled again listlessly from him.
At length, as If tired of attempting to
escape, It crept with n moan Into Its
cage and once more laid Itself down
to rest
•The first surprise of the assembly
at the apathy of the lion soon grew
Jnto resentment at Its cowardice; and
the populace already merged their
pity for the fate of Glaucus Into Rngry
compassion for their own disappoint-
ment. The manager called to the
keeper;
“ 'How le this? Take a goad, and
prick him forth, and then close the
door of the den.’
“As the keeper, with some fear,
hut more astonishment, was preparing
to obey, a loud cry was heard at one
of the entraneea of the arena; there
was a confusion, a hustle, voices of
remonstrance suddenly breaking forth,
and sudden silence at the reply* All
eyes turned In wonder toward the
quarter of the disturbance; the crowd
gave way, and suddenly Sallust ap-
peared on the senatorial benches, hts
hair disheveled, breathless, heated,
half exhausted. He rust his eyes has-
tily uround the ring ‘Remove the
Athenian.* he cried; ‘haste, he la In-

he glanced hla eyes over the rolling
and ruahing crowd, when, right above
through the wide chasm which
had been left In the velaria, he beheld
a strange and awful apparition: be

•gs!
“He stretched hla hand on high;
over hla lofty brow and royal features
there came an expreealon of unutter-
able solemnity and command.
"‘Behold!’ he shouted with a voice
of thunder which stilled the roar of
the crowd; ‘behold how the gods pro-
tect, the guiltless! The fires of the
avenging Orcus hurst forth against
the false wltneas of my accusers!’ ”
The fires of the "avenging Orcus”
were those of the great eruption of
Vesuvius In 7ft A. I). Toward such a
mei'-qrainatlc climax, furnlshel him
by Nature, the author hod been spin-
ning the lives of his characters In the
little city which nestled under the
shadow of the volcano.
bprowtau 0«U Nearly Ready to •# Pastured
The converging threads of .the story
are many, giving In the final weaving
a complete picture of the life of Pom-
peii—Its shops, tiny palaces, baths,
forum, theater, circus, and all that
dally took place In the energetic life
of this toy copy of Home at the begin-
ning of the Christian era. The story
centers around Glaucus the Athenian,
brilliant, gay, witty, descendant of a
nobler race frivolling himself away
amid the coarser pleasures of the Ro-
mans, until finally all that was fine
In him was brought forth by his love
for lone of Naples, who, like himself,
was a child of Greece. And alongside
this tale of love runs the pathetic
story of Nydla, the blind slave girl,
who centers all her hopes of happi-
ness In winning the affection of Glau-
cus. To this end she gains possession
of n love potion which the opulent
Julia has had prepared In the belief
that It will bring to her the much-de-
sired 'Glaucus. In reality the potion
Is a polBon which will drive the un-
fortunate drinker mad. It Is designed
by the sinister Egyptian Arhaces to
clear his path to lone from hlR rival
Glaucus. In his raving, Glaucus comes
upon Arhaces Just as the latter has
killed lone’s brother Apaeeides, a
young priest of Isis, who, much to the
annoyance of Arhaces. has embraced
the new Christian faith. Arhaces
throws the guilt upon poor Glaucus
with apparent success. But the priest
Calenus was a hidden witness, with
the final result shown In the great epi-
sode of the hook. As the crowd in the
circus turned their eyes toward.Vesu-
vius, they heheld "a fire that shifted
and wavered in Its hues with every
moment, now fiery luminous, now of
a dull and dying red, that again blazed
terrifically forth with Intolerable
glare. Then there arose on high the
universal shrieks of women; the men
stared nt each other, hut were dumb.____
At that moment they felt the earth 1___
shake beneath their feet; the walls!
of the theater trembled, and beyond In PREVENT WILTING OF PLANTS

Moat folk* agr**- that a *<**1 salad
n**-d« chicken and th* poultry family
j ao-ina to be unanimous in the opinion
i that good chicken* need salad. This
\ story Is about chit ken salad as hen-
[ nery habitues think of It- assuming
that they do think.
During the spring and summer
months a flock so located that It can
range does not need to have any greet,
feed supplied If. When the birds are
confined In a hack yard or In any
other limited space where there Is
little or no green material, they will
not do their bewt unless supplied with !
all the salad material they can eat
once a day.
The question of how to supply the
best feed at the leant cost Is one each
poultry keej»er must decide largely for
himself. It probably makes little dif-
ference what green feed Is supplied,
providing it Is palatable. Clover, al-
falfa, rape, rye, oats and Swiss chard j
are some of the crops often grown for
this purpose. As it Is necessary to
shut the hens away from the crop
when It Is growing, various cropping
plans are advocated. The poultry spe-
cialists in tlie United States depart-
ment of agriculture recommend three
plans to fit varying conditions and lo-
calities.
Front and Back Alternate Plan.
Back yard.—Permanent. Blue grass
and clover or blue gras# and alfalfa In
sod. To be used as a range while
crops are growing in the front yard.
Large area desirable.
Front yard.—Temporary crops.
November 1 to April 1. Feed winter
rye, vetch, crimson clover, etc.
April 1 to July 1, grow rape, chard,
lettuce, buckwheat.
July and August. Feed.
September 1 to November 1. Grow
winter rye, vetch, crimson, clover, etc.

The Third Plan.
In this cropping plan one of the sug-
gested crops Ik to be grown In one yard
while a crop is pastured in the alter-
nate yard. Crops should be selected
which will grow In the given district.
The dates must he modified for ex-
treme north or south.
Yard 1.—From April to July should

clover, vetch, sunflowers (shade and

Yard 2.—From April to July flock
feeds on w inter rye. winter vetch, crim-
son clover (New Jersey and South), or
sweet clover.
Yard 1.—From July 1 to October 1
should be growing either oats, chard,
lettuce, clover, vetch, cowpeos or rape.
Yard 2.—From July 1 to October 1
flock feeds on buckwheat, dwarf Essex

One Way to Wa^h Bedding.
An easy way to wash bed quilts or
comfortables is to take a small scrub
brush and a pail of suds and scrub
well the most soiled parts. Place the
article over a table to do this. Sec-
ond, place article on clothesline and
rinse with the garden hose. Let the
full force of water soak the quilt or
comfortable well. This may need be
done several times, but the result Is
a good, clean comfortable without pull-
ing apart the lining.
To Remove Rust Stains.
Iron rust has a most astonishing
way of appearing on garments. Some-
times a pin will be a bit rusty and
leave two little brown spots in a most
conspicuous place. Wet the spot with
a drop of lemon juice, add salt and
put on more lemon juice. Put In the
sun and when the salt is dry the rust
spot will be gone. If the sun refuses
to put in an appearance for the day,
1 hold the stain with its saturated solu-
tion of lemon juice and salt over
steam. The rust will be removed.
For Little Folk*' Frock*.
One of the latest and really most
I sensible things for the children’s
] frocks is unbleached muslin. It lends
itself admirably to decoration, too,
especially when made into “Peter
Thompson” suits.
One of tne best models that ha*
come from Paris for spring and sum-
mer wear and its simple elegance
makes a wonderful frame for any face.
It is of old rose crepe de chine em-
broidered with old rose silk and Is
draped with a prettily figured veil.
Hats of Black Lace.
Hats of black lace, with and with-
out straw, malines or tulle, are much
in evidence. Many—in fact most—of
these hats are on the large pictur-
esque order.

Water Should Be Poured Around Roots
Before Dirt Is Filled In—
Furnish Shade.
Plants take In moisture through
their small feeding rootlets and dis-
charge It through the surface of their
leaves. As a result of the breaking of
the roots In transplanting, the supply
of moisture is cut ofl and the plants
wilt, says the United States detri-
ment of agriculture. To prevent the
wilting of the leaves, water should be
poured around the roots before the
dirt ts filled In; also, the fops of the
plants should he shaded and protected
from the wind to reduce the evajs-ra-
tion from the leaves.

seen in one of the smart shops of inter-

against a horsehair brim which is
satin threaded in gold squares. There
is a gold ribbon around the brim and
from this a short brown tulle veil is
extended.
A hat of black horsehair with a low
crown banded in black satin ribbon,

Many of the new veils are edged
prettily and hang loose and full. Some
are close fitting over the face and long
and flowing down the hack. In fact
there is a style of veil for every face;
heavy figures. French dotted and ex-
quisitely fine meshed veils are equally
attractive in the new spring collection.
