statues smile.
Nearly everybody knows the story
Of the LAGOON and is familiar, by

laurel. In the Cardinals College, it
is scarcely necessary to relate, there
is a man named Rampolla, whom the
Romans, by the way, think is going
to be the next Pope. The other day
an American business man, who was
trusting to his wife for explanations
Of the various things he didn't un-

Bernini' s group. "Ain't she curious
he was saying of the nymph, "why
she must be diseased: See, she has
bark on her legs. and her fingers are
sprouting leaves: What you reckon

And the wife, who had evidently
read a little Greek mythology and a
little modern Church politics, and had
the two confused in her mind, after
a moment of panied thought, respond

"Oh, I-know, it must be Rampollo
