Roman Bricks.

The rebuilding of the campaniIe in
Venice has begun. 1t is expected that
the structure will be finished by 1906.
Although the fall of the tower was a
d%eplorable loss, some good attended it
in the opportunity it gave Psychologists
to examine the bricks.
1t was found that the bricks had
been used in arches, Notifications, the
tops of walls and in other ways be-
fore they were built into the CAM
panile and that they are not Venetian,
but Roman bricks.
The ancient bricks were made til
slices, for in many the layers could be
seen u~ndisturbed. 1T is said that bricks
made this way can bear a greater
weight than modern bricks.
The bricks examined were Of the
first century. One OF them bore the
imprint Of a horseshoe, which may
prove that the Romans used d horse
shoe like ours, although ii is generally
believed that their h~orseshoes were
strapped on, not nailed.-Youth,s Come
