The whole scene unrolled itself to
us as we sat looking over the ground
where the anxious or triumphant heart
beats of the contestants could almost
be heard after all the centuries in the
now solitary spot. 1t is difficult to
imagine any scene on earth more spir-
tied than when the name and country
of each competing youth was called
out and heralds announced them with
the clarion notes of the trumpets.
And what a generous thought was it
of the patriotic Greek to restore the
stadium at Athens and make an object
for the youth of to-day to undertake
exactly the same games of the long
ago!
1t would have been even more an
event Of the centuries had Olympia
been chosen, but it's distance and isola-
tion and the hardships to which the
spectators would have been subjected
were insurmountable obstacles. One
must be an enthusiast or an archaeo-
logical scholar to visit Olympia as it
now is.
But there are rewards awaiting
every one who does penetrate to the
isolated ruins. The interest is in.

PRESCRIPTIONS IN LATIN.
The Public Should Have Them Trans
lated by the Druggists.

What virtue is there in the secrecy
with which the doctor hedges about
his profession?
Professional etiquette" occupies q
prominent place in the curriculum Of
every medical school, and when strict
ly analyZed professional etiquette"
seems to mean doing what is best for
the doctor, individually and col
lectively.'
Among the things that "is best for
the doctor" is the writing of his pre-
scriptions in Latin, and thus keeping
the public in ignorance not only of
what it is taking for it's ills, but fore.
ing call upon the doctor each time
prescription is needed
In plain and unmistakable English
the writing of prescriptions in Latin
makes business for the doctors.
Let us say that you have the ague.
You had it last year and the year be-
fore. Each time you have visited the
doctor and he has prescribed for you
in Latin. You have never known
what he has given you for the disease,
and so each time you are forced to go
to him again and give him an oppor-
tunity to repeat his prescription-in
Latin, and his fee--in dollars.
If you ask the doctor why he uses
Latin in writing his prescriptions, why
he writes aqua" when he means wa
ter, he will give you technical dis
sertation on the purity of the Latin
language, and the fact that all words
are derived from it, etc. 1t will be
dissertation that you may not be able
to answer, but it will hardly convince
you.
1t would be a good thing for the pub
lie to devise a little code of ethics of
its own; ethics that will be "a good
thing for the public individually and
collectively"
Let us apply one of the rules of this
code of ethics to you, the individual.
You call in the physician when you
have the ague, the grippe, or any of
the other ills to which human flesh is
heir, and which You may have again
some day. The doctor prescribes-in
Latin, and you take this, to you, mean
ingless scribble to the druggist to
have it compounded. Right here is
where you come in, if you are wise.
Say to the druggist that you want
translation of that prescription. 1t is
your privilege to know what you are
taking. While the doctors code of
ethics may not recognize this right 1t
is yours just the same.
With the translated prescription in
your possession you have two distinct
advantages. You know what you are
taking, and should you wish to call
some other doctor at some time you
will be able to tell him what drugs you
have been putting into your system,
and also if you should have the same
disease again you can save yourself
visit to the doctor, and his fee, by
taking this translated prescription to
the druggist once more and having it
reflled

OF course we sought out the temple
where the Hermes once stood. The
base of the Hereaon, the Oldest temple
in Greece, had row of pedestals on
either side still left, where statues
once stood. Pausanius described the
very place of the Hermes between the
carved columns.
Outside, on the wide walk leading to
the stadium, there are many pedestals
of the money given for fines when the
rules Of the games were broken. for
these contests went on for 1000 years

SO uldny years DelOIe CHdplelS
were woven to place on the broVs of
the winners of the games; so we knew
that the laurel which Is so rare now in
Greece grew then under the patient
care of those who had dedicated its
leaves to the conqueror.
The ruins of Olympia are far more
accessible than those at Delphi My
cenae or Epidaurus, for we escaped
the steep climbs. The sacred pre-
cincts were in the valley of the River
Alpheios, and though it is far from
our ideas of what river should be
1t still is a grateful sight to have
stream in the vicinity of any of the
great ruins of Greece.
OF course, before going to trace our
way through the labyrinth of marble
and rock we stopped at the museum
to see the Hermes. The world will
have to make pilgrimages to this mar
velous statue, for in all the excava-
tions carried on by the different
schools and archaeological societies
from every country the Greeks now
insist that the great finds" must be
left in the museums on the grounds,
and so the large sums offered for the
Hermes have no effect. 1t is to re-
main in the small isolated and unget-
at-able corner of the world. The mu-
scum has accorded the statue a large
space quite by itself, and the hush of
the tourist, the silence in this alcove
is like that about the Sistine Madonna
in the Dresden gallery. With the
Madonna it is not alone reverence for
art which seems to have been inspired,
but for the woman and the mother;
but before the Hermes one is silent
from awe of what art has accom-
plished.

do with the games. Tie vtctors ex.
hibted their prizes in public places
and between the sculptured columns
of this temple there once stood the
evidences of the conquests of young
Greece. Imagine a whole street of
such beautiful temples extending from
the theater of Dionysos to the town,
all holding the trophies of the trium-
phant competitors.
But Olympia soon lost its local
celebrity in the days when the oracle
of Delphi proclaimed the spot the
favored one of all the many centers
for games, and it was a national festi-
val that brought people from all over
the world.
Foot races, hurting the discus,
wrestling and boxing were followed
in time by chariot and horse races. In
the onglomeration of debris we traced
the foundations of the walls of the
great buildings set aside for the ac-
commodation of those entered for the
contests.
But small portion of the great
stadium has been redeemed from the
mass of sand in which the river buried
all of Olympia by a change of it's
course.
The stadium, unlike that at Athens,
which has one circular end, thus
doubling the distance of the run, had
$50 As feet in straight line. There
were no tiers of seats such as we saw
at the stadiums of Delphi, Epidauros
and Athens, but the gentle slopes Of
the hills were sufficient for the specta-
tors. You approach through a long
walk once lined with statues. A little
to the right of the entrance a portico
extended almost the entire width Of
the sacred precincts. Under this roof
the people strolled back and forth
awaiting the call of the herald to the
arena. In front of this marvelously
beautiful portico sacrifices to propiti-
ate the gods were burned on altars
whose foundations are easily traced
now. An archway on the left of the
stadium was the entrance for the con-
testants. One arch is still standing
and is far higher and larger than the
photograph represents. Some of the
walls of the long entrance remain,
having resisted the pressure of the
sand which settled there so long ago.
After we had passed through this
trench on the side of the hill we as
cended the slope to sit down on the
flower-crowned hill in the midst of the
asphodels of the poets, near the low
wall where the start was made.
The same birds that sung 1000
years ago were singing the same
songs; the blossoms were putting up
the very same lovely faces to the
cloudless sky above; shepherd boy
was piping the unaltered notes of his
ancestors with the reeds of his sim
pie instrument fashioned as of old; a
woman in field close by watched the
herd, distaff in hand, and a farmer
turned up burrows in the river valley
sy make of archaic days.
The hand of Greek maiden was
once the prize competed for, and yet
only one woman, the Eleian priestess,
was allowed to view the sports within
the guarded precinct. We almost felt
as we sat picturing the entrance of the
superb youths through the vaulted
archway that a trumpet wo-ld sound,
clearing the hill of the daring petit
coats that had ventured to view the
forbidden field.
Even the palm was handed to the
victor by an emperor and not a WON.
