middle ages, and its semi-decayed
machicolations on the summit show
how readily the medieval work went
to ruin. The description on the great
slab on enc side Of the monument
tells that 1t was raised by Nj. Plau-
titus Silvanus for himself and his wife
Lartia and his child. His descend
ants subsequently used it for sepul-
chral purposes, and among those in
urned here was Tiberius Plautius Sill
vanus, who served in the Roman army
in Britain. and died in the year A. d.
76. 1t Is stated besides, by Murray,
that Aulus Plsutius, one of this fam
lily. laid out the plan of an encamp-
ment or the site of the Tower of Lon
don, "and may possibly he regarded
as the founder of the city"
Thus, apart from its picturesque
ness, it has history sufficient to JUS
tify careful investigation. Few land
scape artists who visit this side of
the Roman Campagna but find time to
make sketch of it. The rich, warm
tones of the monument, the glaucous
muddy hues of the river. the green
of the trees and the varied puppies
and green's of the hills, constitute a
combination of colors-to say nothing
of the variety of forms-that gladdens
the heart of an artist.

NOTES ON THE SUNDAY SCHOOL
LESSON FOR MAY "a.
Jesus Teaches Humility.
MARK :35-45.)

Jesus was now near the close OF his
Perean ministry. He was proceeding
toward Jerusalem, where he knew
that death awaited him, yet he moved
forward with majesty and heroism."
There are few pictures in the Cos
pei" says Canon Farrar, "more strik-
ing than this of Jesus going forth
to his death, and walking alone along
the path into the deep valley, while
behind him, in awful reverence and
mingled anticipations of dread and
hope, the disciples walked and dared
not disturb his meditation
An Ambitious Request.-Though
Jesus had clearly indicated to the
disciples the tragic end which was in
store for him, they seem utterly to
have failed to comprehend his mean
ing. A conclusive evidence of this
is seen in the startling request which
was made by the two sons of Zebe-
dee, James and John, who with their
mother Salome came and asked, that
they might sit, one on the right hand,
and the other on the left hand of
Jesus in his glory.
The Masters Reply.-The two dis
ciples ask that they might have the
two chief places of honor in an earth
ly kingdom, which they imagined that
Jesus was about to establish. But
the Master adnonishes them that
they know not what they ask, and
then he promises them, not that they.
shall sit in the coveted places of
honor, but that they should drink of
the cup that he was to drink, and be
baptized with the baptism wherewith
he should be baptized. In other
words, they we're to be partakers of
like sufferings with him, and in the
martyrdom of James (Acts 1929;
and the bnishment of John to Pat
mos, these predictions received their
fulfllment.
The characteristics of true Great
ness.-The ambition showed by James
and John aroused the resentment
of the other disciples. Jealousy and
ambition were evidently rife among
these men whom Jesus had chosen to
be his apostles, and the situation
called forth from the Masters lips
a definition of what true greatness
really is. "Whosoever will be great
among you shall be your minister"
said Jesus. "Your minister"-that
is, your servant. Service, then, is
the true badge of greatness in the
kingdom which Jesus came to estab-
lish. Not pride and ambition, but
meekness and humility are to be the
distinguishing characteristics of the
followers of Christ.
The Supreme Mission of Jesus
It is in this connection hat Jesus
spoke the memorable words, which
may be rightly regarded as the Gull
minating statement of his own mis-
sion upon the earth. He is himself
a shining exemplar of the principles
which he had just been e~nunciating
