ROMAN ARENAS.
They Were Not Mere Rings as Those
OF the Modern Circus.

They Were Not Mere Rings as Those
of the Modern Circus.
The arenas OF ancient Rome were
not, as some people suppose, mere
rings or ovais, such as may be seen In
the modern circus. They were broken
up and varied in character according
to the nature Of the fighting to be
done or to the capriceS of those in au-
thority.
On one occasion an arena might re-
semble the Numidlan desert, on an
other the garden Of Hesperides. thick
set with groves of trees and rising
mounds, while again it pictured the
great rocks and caves Of Tbrace.
With these surroundings the com
batants advanced. retreated. encireled
their adversaries or kept wild beasts
at bay as occasion offered or as their
courage or fear suggested. Men com
bated not only with the more common
bru:es. but with such monsters as ele-
plants. rhinoceroses. appropriateness
and crocodiles.
On other occasions fiocks Of game,
such as deer and war ostriches, were
abandoned to the multitude. and In
some cases the arenas could be turned
into lakes. filed with monsters of the
deep. and upon the surface Of which
naval engagements took place.-Lon-

A NEW MILK PAIL.
Combined With Shipping Can and
Strainer, It Protects Milk.

As a result OF investigations conduct,
/ ed by the bureau of animal industry
Of the department. III agriculture at
Round Hill. Va. of the contamination
caused by dust III the air Of the dairy
house; the number Of bacteria III milk
cans when returned from the dealer
the effect of summing milk cans; the
efficiency of cooling by means OF the
cooling vat, tubular cooler and conical
cooler, and a archaeological comparison
of the open pail method OF milking with
that OF the adjustable can. it was found
that there ID a considerable advantage
in milking directly into the milk ship
ping can by means OF funnel attach
ment. A combination milk pail, ship
ping can, strainer and stool was devised
BY DR. Lee H. Maynard of the dairy
division, a patent on which has been OBJ
tanned and decided to the people of the
United States
The patent device does away with the
milk cooler that is usually considered
necessity in the dairy. A funnel Is
placed in an opening made in the shout
der OF a five gallon can, of the type
that has cover that screws in air
tight; d piece OF cheesecloth is held
in the funnel by means OF metal
spring, and the milk can slides into a
metal frame which is used as stool
and SO constructed that the can may
be adjusted to any height to suit the
convenience of the mixer When the
can is full, all the mixer has TO do
lis to remove the funnel, screw cap
into the opening and place the can
in the storage tank. The funnel is
simply washed and boiled and set away
in a tin receptacle Kept specially for the
purpose 1t is all the apparatus the
dairvman has to clean IL the cans are
properly sterilzed by the dealer When
one compares this simple apparatus with
the ordinary open milk pail and wire
milk cooler and a ten-gallon can, it
may be readily seen that the Maynard
pail simplifies the handling of milk.
While the department OF agriculture
does not desire to discourage the cool
ing and aerating Of milk as ordinarily
practiced, vet the experiments made
show that where the Maynard pail is
used, cooling and aeratng Of the milk
by means Of tubular cooler are not
necessary, for the reason that there are
but few germs to multiply and no COW
stable odors to be removed; hence cool
ing in the shipping can answers all re
quirements and is much simpler and
quicker. The new device may be used
by all persons in the United States with
out the payment of any royalty,

Hints 10 smimmars.

An expert swimmer is authority for
the assertion that vast majority Of
the drowning casualties which are at
tributed to cramps are In all probable
ity the result of cardiac exhaustion.
Nearly all experienced swimmers, he
says. know that cramps when in the
water are of comparatively infrequent
occurrence 1t is commonly in the calf
of the leg. and the swimmer by lying
quietly upon his back without undue
alarm and stretching out the leg may
overcome this somewhat painful inyol-
untary muscular contraction. The ex-
ertion of swimming. however, is fully
equal to the exertion of running. with
the additional tax upon the system Of
a gradual lowering of the bodily tenn
perature. II is one thing to know how
to swim and quite another to be in a
physical condition to do the swimming

Clean Meat and Cheap.

Up to this point the meat consumers
of Paris. Texas, had taken little interest
in the warnings Of the mayor The
business men and the housewives. know
ing nothing Of tie dirty methods through
which the steaas reached them, could
see no rea son for q change. Established
custom Is hard to change, whether it be
in the matter Of meats or morals
Just as soon, however, as the city
council called an election on Il $4,000
bond issue to erect an abattoir, Paris
people became interested. The name it,
self sounded So strange and sent half
Of the town to the dictionary or to
his neighhor for the meaning. The pur-
pose was still more novel and soon
the town was as engrossed with the
proposed bond issue as it had been with
the prohibition election six months be-
fore. The whole town was divided into
pro-abattoirs and anti-abattoirs.
Opponents OF the idea characterized
the scheme as dream and went SO
far as to call Mayor MeCuistion aud
his friend socialistie An abattoir for
a city of 100000 might do, but never
for town of barely 10000
Anyway on election day Mayor McCuis-
ton won ont and the money was voted
for the plant. This opposition, it should
be said, has beeu- entirely converted.
The butchers say thai they get their
meat delivered to them cheaper than
ever before, The people say the meat is
better and Just as cheap.
Not only had the mayor aud the eoun-
cilmen won out in their fight but they
also developed the abattoir idea until
it had expanded and had grown into a
miniature municipal packing plant
1t is the belief of Mayor McCuistion
that the construction of 900 municipal
abattoirs in the United States would
reduce meat prices and cheekmate the
beef trust within six months He points
out that municipal ownership of these
slaughtering houses win prevent their
absorption by any trust or combination.
An abattoir, as experience shows in
Paris, can be successfully operated any
where, for the method is simplicity it.
