At dinner time recently at famous
Berlin restaurant the place was
crowded, when suddenly a six-foot
snake dropped quietly, apparently
from nowhere, into the center of one
of the largest tables. Ladies screamed,
men shouted, and chairs were
overturned by the flying crowds. The
snake alone remained unmoved, lying
perfectly oblivious of the commotion
which it had created Finally a wait

cautiously, others followed, and soon

sound asleep. The reptile belonged

1,SO0 years ago trained gladiators and
Christian martyrs were "butchered to
make Roman holiday"
At Mines is also the most perfectly
preserved Roman temple in existence.
1t is lovely little Corinthian edifice
now known as the Maison Carree, and
dates from the year A. D. This
beautiful little temple, which is now
used as museum of antiquities,
served to some extent as model for
the great church of the Madeleine in
Paris.
About Is miles from Mines, near
he picturesque little provencal village
Of Romonlius, may be seen one of the
grandest and most impressive of all
the Roman structures known to the

duct across the river Gard, constructed
In the year 27 B. c. by Marcus Agrip-
pa, the great general and son-in-law of
Augustus Caesar, and known to the
world as the Pont du Gard.
There is perhaps no ancient struc-
ture in all of Rome that brings us so
closely in touch with the mighty en-
gineers of that greatest age of the en-
pire as does this splendid old bridge
which still towers across the valley
Of the Gard among the lonely hills Of
