An Ancient Towa.


As long ago as the year S22 Hildesheim Is
mentioned in history. In that year, we are
told, Lewis the Pious, Charlemagne's son
and successor, made 1t the seat Of the
bishopric intended by his father to be es-
Ia )ished at the Deighboring town of Eize.
Less than Century before Charlemagne
had brought the heather Saxons into sub
lection and Christianity was yet new in the
land. Gunther, the first Bishop. had been
Canon of the cathedral at Rheims. Three
years after his elevation to the new
Episcopal See he consecrated the first
chapel, naming it in honor of the Virgin
Mary. TINS chapel is supposed TO have Oc-
cupied the site under the present cathedral,
where the crypt of the new church is built
pretty rose bush that now clings to the
outer wall of the cathedral choir is said by
tradition to have grown there since the
the days of Lewis the Pious himself. In
The twelfth century, when the choir and
crypt were being enlarged, a protecting,
hollow wall was built around the rose bush
in order that the vine might continue to
grow about the building when the new wall
had been completed. A bit of the old arch
ing may be seen behind the altar in the
crypt. This is the present voucher for the
great age OF the rose bush. and it must be
admitted that many traditions repOse upon
less solid foundation.

Not the least remarkable thing about Mrs.
Terhune Is that In spite Of her age-for she
is not far from 60-she Is engaged In as ac-
tive work as she was 20 years ago. or no
other women of her period and age can this
be said. She is one of the few literary
women who write only by order, and appli-
cations from publishers OF books, maga-
zines and papers pour in upon her so con-
stantly that she is obliged to decline the ma
jority OF them. The secret OF her continued
productiveness Is found in her admirable
health and her systematic work. Every hour
has its allotted study.
Mrs. TerhuDe's works show no diminu-
tion In quality as she advances in years. On
the contrary, her latest novel, "His Great
Self. is generally conceded to be her best

cal talks uUOu home life.
