Rome.-Early in April, in the pres
ence Of King Victor Emmanuel ILL.,, OF
Italy, the Keats-Shelley memorial
house in Rome was opened and con.
seCrated as a museum in memory OF
the two English poets who were
friends. Henceforth this house, stu
ated on the right hand side Of the OLD
Spanish stairs, in the Piazza di Spag

speaking tourists and loves OF these
poets when in the Eternal city. The
house has been bought by English
and American lovers Of poesy. II
cost 100000. 1t is a modest house
which in Keats and Shelley's day was
a pension, or boarding house.
There is a quiet seriousness about
the premises, as if the shadow still
fingered where young Keats breathed
his last sigh. In the little entrance
hang some old engravings, which give
one an idea Of the Piazza di Spagna
before the Spanish stairs were built
and after their construction. The
house has been renovated. The cen,
trail room has been transformed into
a reading room. Around the walls
run the book shelves made Of dark
walnut, the floor is covered by thick
Turkish rugs. Sir Moses Ezekiels
bust of Shelley holds a prominent
place in this room, as we'll as that
made Of Shelley by Severn. It is
rather hard to put oneself in touch
with the two poetic spirits who lived
in this house. amid the babble Of the

1n Milford. Pa, there is an old
graveyard, neglected, weed-grown and
unkempt. OF all the mounds in that
village Of the dead only one is cared
for: On that the grass is neatly
trimmed, flowers bloom and never a
weed appears. The visitor who looks
upon this evidence of love and deyo-
ton amid so many examples of for
getfulness usually asks whose grave
1t is. and the sexton answers: The
man whose body rests there had
neither chick nor child. Nearly every
day for the six years since the man
died a boy comes here to tend to the
grave. Winter and summer he comes.
The lad is the butcher boy. The man
was the only human being who ever

MAKING SUNSHINE

The improper selection of food

and just so surely as that is the case

book shelves hold 200 editions Of
Keats and Shelley's works. Most of
these being recent editions, have little

that worth while to show in this way?
BY far the most interesting room is
the little bedchamber in which Keats
died, with it's two windows, one of
which looks out over the Piazza di

of the pyramid of Caius Cestius, and
