Vention OF modern times. According
to Prof. ]. N. Mosby, noted English an
tiquary, however, this is not the case.
This gentleman, who was lecturing re-
Gently before an antiquarian society,
stated that 1t was the custom among

stop the children from crying. The
professor went on to say that there are

the old Roman cemetery of st. sepul-

to the conclusion that this bottle must
have been buried with the little Roman

and In 1874 two women applied for ad-

were admitted and finished the course,
although they did not receive a de-
gree. One coveted privilege these
young ladies were not permitted to
enjoy-that Of reading their essays on
commencement day. The professor CT
rhetoric was their proxy. Such an
ardent woman's rights advocate as
Lucy Stone had to suffer under this
humiliatlng discrimination, but not
without vigorous protest. Her essay
Was not read by the professor Of rhet-

never written. In 1859 that barrier was
broken down by the pent-up energies
OF many generations Of irate female
students, who here as everywhere CD
