Tho AnQel Wind Hat Girl.

We had picture frame which con-
taincd picture we did not admire,
though when | purchased it it was
my cAoice of many. Sometimes pic
tures do not wear well, the same as
an ornament which you may have ad-
mired at first. but soon tire of. In
selecting another picture for this
franc, rural scene with many peo-
pie in it was chosen. One of the first
remarks of an observer was regarding
the hat of a little girl which hung
down her back in a way to resemble
an augePs wing. The artist may not
have Intended any such resemblance,
and my attention had to be called to
it before l noticed it. When you see
something useful or interesting and
new TO you, please call my attention
to it, hecause l may never see it eX-
cept through your instruction. If you
read something in newspaper and
want 10 cut it out for your own scrap
book or collection. tell me where to
buy It for my readers and my OVID
personal benefit.

The American on walking through the lava
paved streets Of Pompeii is first impressed with
the isolation of the private houses Instead Of
fronting on the street with the windows of the
choicest rooms looking down on the sidewalk
the Pompeiian residence turned its back on a
thoroughfare. often the front wall is unbroken
save by the doorway. Through this entrance
the visitor enters vestibu.e, and beyond he
sees an open court, around which built the
living rooms. In the rear the stables for
horses. under the same roof. but removed from
the rooms occupied by the family.
The architectural restoration of POmpei how
ever, fails to reflect the moral and social life Of
the Roman If one passes unheeded the inscrip-
tons with which it's walls are covered
guide VII translate them for one. Besides the
carved Inscriptions found on public monuments
there are rough scratchings on the walls and
floors. where vandaI poets have scrubbed their
verses or lovers have imprinted amorous moth
Ings, much they do now. The habit Of
scratching on the wall was indeed much more
prevalent in those days than these. for it was
always temptation for a Roman to test the
finely POINTED stylus on soft plaster and stucco.
And so. should one go hunting through Pom
peii for inscriptions. he will find that 1t had
once hosiery known as the Elephant Inn
The letters of its name still exist on its
threshold. Its walls are covered with Names

judged by the context of one inscription the
Elephant Inn housed at one time a married
man who wished he was home in the bosom Of
his family. This is what he wrote:
Here slept Vibius Restitutus all by himself
while his heart is filed with longings for his
Urbana."
This particular guest may have been gen
teman and a scholar" but the majority of the
patrons Of the Elephant Inn, or any Of the other
hotels of Pompeii, were not. The public houses
of the Romans were generally occupied by the
poor. and often by the vicious. In those days

significance. Now all five continents read daily
Of the volcanoes demonstrations, and wonder if
the Silent City will meet second fate. Wher-
ever Roman thought and art have gone, how
ever they may have been reproduced by the
Anglo-Saxon. the Gaul the Iberian Pompeii
is always a name that awakens sympathy.
The loss Of the Pompeii of to-day, however.
would not be one Of sentiment alone. 1t would
mean the destruction Of property whose value
can hardly be estimated in dollars and cents.
Since 1861 archseoiogists have been uncovering
its buildings systematically and have laid bare
one-half its streets They have also restored
several Of its buildings. so that the visitor
might think he had gone backward some twenty
centuries and was living in the reign Of Titus
instead of Victor Emmanuel Ill In one house
for example, the figures Of the fresCos seem
almost as fresh as before the fatal shower Of
ashes Marble statues stand in the Railways
just as they did when their master was alive
Fountains are playing in the atrun. and in
the garden there flourish the same varieties Of
roses which his daughters once picked to adorn
their hair. This is the house Of Vettius the

Some have said that even If Pompeii were
devastated a second time not with ashes and
pumice stones such as fell in 80. but with lava
which would make the city obiteration as
the world would still have the priceless Pom
peiian relics in the museum Naples Here
they say, are all kinds Of handiwork which re-
fleet the life and customs Of the ancient inbabi-
tants of POmpeii. Not only NAV one SEA here
works of art which ornamented public halls and
private parlors, but the everyday appliances of
life.
But those who have set themselves to the
task Of restoring Pompeii contend that museum
relics can give only the vaguest idea Of the
people whose property they once were. The
Old World thew say. is full Of ruined cities
where cups and statues and a thousand more
different kinds of human inventions are being
dug up every day. Every good sized museum
in the world has its exhibition Of Roman an
tiquities."
1t is Pompe Itself therefore which its re-
storers say is most precious Of all Nowhere
else i'm all the world has whole city been en-
balmed. rs it We're so that twenty centuries
have passed by if they were so many years

praise, well such financial announcement
