All that is known to-day about the
EtruscaDs, a people who gave Rome
her civilization and refinement, her
arts and sciences, many if not all of
her political, religious and social insti-
tutions and the weapons and appli-
ances of war which enabled her to con-
quer the world, has been gathered from
the mighty cemeteries of Etruria, and
it has been said that "sepulchers re-
vea,ed what history ignored In very
early times the power of Etruria is
said to have extended all over Italy
but gradually the Gauls and the Sa-
biaes, the Greek colonists, and later
the Romans succeeded in diminishing
this widespread dominion and reduced
1t to the limits of the central region or
mother country, which is known as
Etruria Proper and which was bounded
by the Apennines on the north, by the
Tiber on the east and by the Mediter.

Water and Life.

or all the conditions preparatory to
life, the presence of water, composed
Of oxygen and hydrogen, is at once the
most essential and the most world.
wide. For if water be present, the
presence of other necessary elements
is probably assured. If water exist.
that fact goes bail for the necessary
temperature, the gamut of life being
co-extensive with the existence of wa
ter as such. 1t is SO consequentially,
declares Prof. Lowell's THE Evolution
OF Life" in the Century, life being i'm
possible without water. Whatever the
planet, this is of necessity true. But
the absolute degrees of temperature
within which life can exist vary ac
cording to the mass of the body, an
other of the ways in. which mere size
tells. On the earth 212 degrees F.
limits the range at the top, and 80 de-
grees +. at the bottom in the case OF
fresh water, 81 degrees F. in the case
OF salt On smaller planet both
limits would be lowered, the top one
the most. On Mars the boiling point
would probably be about ITO degrees
r. Secondly, from the general initial
oneness of their constituents, a planet
that still possesses water will probably
retain the other substances that are
essential to life; gases, for the reason
that water vapor is next to hydrogen
and helium the lightest of them all;
and solids because their weight would
still more condnce to keep them there.
Water. indeed, acts as a solution to
the whole problem.
