A Dream Picture Of Ancient Rome.

We may still stand on the tower Of the
capitol and survey that glorious panorama
bounded by Tuscan, Sabine and Alban hills
and dream what that scene was some / 700
or 1900 years ago. The forum below was
one radiant avenue OF temples, triumphal
arches, triumphal columns, colossal statues,
monuments and votive shrines-the senate
house, the rostra, the sacred way On the
n side; the circular temple of Vesta, the
temple Of Castor and the basilica of Julius
on the other; above on the right the temple
of Jove; on the left that Of Juno and the
towering palaces of the Palatine and the
Circus Maximus beyond the valley. Far
as the eye can reach would he vast theaters,
enormous baths, colossal s%epulchers, obe-
lisks, columns, fountains, equestrian stat
ues In marble or in bronze.
The walls of these sumptuous edifices are
all Of dazzling brilliance in oriental mar
bles bright with mosaics and with frescoes,
and their roofs are covered with plates Of
hammered gold. In the far distance across
terraces and gardens shady with the lark
foliage of cypress and stone pine might be
seen the aqueduets which bring from the
mountains whole rivers into the city to fill
it's Thousand baths and it's hundred foun-
tains. And between the aqueducts and the
porticoes, far as the eye can reach to the
hills beyond, villas CLEAN in the sun with
their terraces, gardens, statues and shrines,
each u little city in itself. The earth has

England's Oldest Industry.

The Oldest industry in Great Britain
older it could hardly be, for it's existence
has been traced back to the prehistoric
stone age-is still being carried on at the
village of Brandon, on the borders of Nor
folk and Suffolk, and is reported to be in a
furnishing condition. 1t is a mandatory
of gun and finder box fints. The work is
done in little sheds, often at the back of
townsfolks' cottages. 1t will naturally be
asked, Who wants finder box fints and
gun fints in these days OF PHOSPHORUS
matches and Martini-Henrys
The answer to the first question is that
there is a good tradei in finder box flints
with Spain and Italy, where the finder box
still keeps it's ground in very rural dis
tricts. Travellers in uncivilized regions,
moreover, find flint and steel more trust
worthy than matches, which are useless
after they have absorbed moisture. Gun
fints, on the other hand, go mostly to the
wild parts of Africa, where our old friend,
"Brown Bess," sold by auction long ago
for what flint muskets would fetch, has
found, it seems, her last refuge.-London

tspecial Correspondence.1

NEW YORK, July 3i.-The up town streets
are tomblike, the sealed doors of the big
houses telling in u mute but significant
way of the sands and mountain tops to
which the inmates have flown. Down town
there are open savers, escaping gas. half
finished houses glimpsing the fiercely blue
sky through skeletonlike beams.
So much for the fate Of the stay at home!
Yet withal a walk through the hot streets
yesterday brought me three distinct and re-
freshing happenings:
] talked with a woman who knows that
queen OF mystery, that mistress of the hui
man passions--the italian t~ragedicnne, TTle-
onore Dusc. / had a cup Of tea with May
Robson, who with a wooden leg kicked
over the last trace that barred her from the
public's heart. And I heard Eugene
Cowles, the wonderful basso who made
the most emphatic hit in robin Hood,'
sing "Annie Laurie' In the summer shade
Of a little studio.
Fortunate2 We'll, rather!
See, here eretwo women sitting on adivan
staring up at a splendid pastel Of the Ital-
Ian who came SO unheralded, left us with
scarcely . hin Of her personality off the
stage, but with a haunting memory Of her
art. 1t IL a sad face-the face of q woman
who has lived deeply, terribly.
"Iived?" says tho little woman who
actually has talked with the great and only
theatrical rsclusA Life has scorched her
in q fro Of pain, and now she waits for
death. She loves her art. The world and
those that crawl upon It are like shadows
to her. She is a pessimist, for she loved
once with the intensity Of a tempest, and
the msn proved Of common earth, as men
will, you know. He was an Italian jour
nalist- She hates reporters ever since and
has never hscn interviewed"
docs she look like her Camille off the
stsgef"
colder. Her face Is lined from expert
ence. Her chief pleasures are reading and
studying. She always walks with q cane
off the stage; but, like most Italians, she
walks little. When l left her. I felt that /
had confronted q manned sou. She is q
wonderful woman and has been a pioneer
in proving that true art can triumph with
ing Italian, you know. that we may under
stand every wosd next year"
A little while after ! went into a huge
studio building and let a gilded elevator
like q huge birdcase watt me to Ell upper
floor. Somebody was singing "Annie Lau-
rie'' as I had never heard it sung. The
strength, purity and compass Of the voice
were evident oven through the closed door.
When + entered the studio that was my
destination, I found myself face to face
with a young man in gray clothes, who
wore the conventional collar and patent
leather boots Of the day. Strange, for he
was Eugene Cowles of Robin Hood fame,
and it was a mental feat to dis8ssociate
him from the memory of q rakish, blond
wig and the green, leather bound doublet
he wore as Will Scarlet.

A Business Woman In Franklin's d,

An interesting instance of a woman's
business ability is givenin Franklin's auto
biography. In 1773 he founded a printing
office in Charleston, S. c., under charge Of
one Of his j~ourneymen, and was to receive
one-third of the profits. Franklin says:
He was a man of learning, but ignorant in
matters Of account, and though he some
times made me remittances l could get no
account from him nor any satisfactory state
Of our partnership while he lived.
ION his decease the business was contin-
ued by his widow, who. being born and
bred in Holland, where, as I have been in
formed, the knowledge Of accounts makes
a part Of female education, she not only
sent me as clear a statement as she could
find of the transactions past, but continued
to account with the greatest regularity and
exactness every quarter afterward and
managed the business with such success
that she not only reputably brought up a
family of children, but at the expiration of
the term was able to purchase of me the
printing house and establish her son in it.
I mention this affair chiefly for the sake Of
recommending that branch of education for
our young women as likely to be of more
use to them and their children, in case Of
widowhood, than either music or dancing"

laughed aloud at the memory. Until a

despair when I found / had to get into the
satin coat and breeches of a slight, small
man. l managed it--how, l never knew
but l was a sight. AS l stood before the
footlights all the blood in my body seemed
forced into my face and feet. and every mo-
ment / thought something was going to
rip somewhere. l went through that song
in agony. l didn't open my mouth very
wide, l was 30 afraid of the seams. They
encored me for some reason. l received the
plaudits with dignity. A bow was impossi-
ble."
Warm as 1t was, l had still some shop
ping to do. At the lace counter OF one Of
the shops stood a graceful, daintily formed
woman, gowned in flutterinG china silk.
II want the insertion wider, please" she
said, leaning forward.
l thought l knew that voice, that conf
Dental air. Somehow they suggested the
footlights and laughter. / looked again.
OF course it was May Robson. Who, to look
at her, 80 daintily correct from tip to toe,
so soft voiced, could believe her the saucy
hoyden who kicked a wooden leg in o
cities, creating one of the audacious i'm
pressions OF the year?
