The Roman Arena.-

People make mistake who sup
pose that the arenas CT ancient Rome
were mere oval rings like circus
ring.
They were anything that the occa-
sion called for. On one occasion they
might resemble a Numidlan desert.
on another the garden OF Hesperides,
set with groves and rising mounds,
and on another the great rocks and
caves Of Thrace.
Men fought not only common
brutes. but with elephants. rhinoce-
roses, appropriateness and crocodiles.
In some cases the arena was trans
formed into lake in which great
naval shows took place.
But there was always something
strenuous associated with the arena

The low of Work.

II Is better to lose health like a
spendthrift than TO waste 1t like a
miser. It Is better to live and be
done with It than to die daily In the
sick room. BY all means, begin your
folio; even II the doctor does not give
you a year. even If he hesitates about
a month, make one brave push and
see what can be accomplished in a
week. 1t is not only in finished un-
dertakings that we ought to honor
useful labor. A spirit goes out Of the
man VINO means execution which out
lives the most untimely ending. All
who have meant coed work with their
whole hearts have done good work.
although they may die before they
have time to sign It. Every heart that
has beat strong and cheerfully has
left a hopeful impulse behind 1t in
the world, and bettered the traditions
