FOUGHT HIS WAY 70 FREEDOM
The Emperor Of Rome Admired the
Courage and Pluck Of
Caractacus.

One of the most unique captiyes
ever brought home to Rome by Julius
Caesar was Caractacus OF the early
Britons. This great chief lost every
thing IN fighting to drive out the
Romans and was taken prisoner with
his wife and children. When brought
before the Roman emperor the proud
ruler Of the primitive people never
showed the least fear. His arms were
chained, and the emperor roafed to
try to brighten Caractacus. but the
Instead he looked the monarch In the
eye and said:
you fight to gain the whole world
and to make everybody your slaves. I
fought to keep my own land and for
freedom" +
The great courage the chief showed
finally touched the heart Of, the en-
peror, and the ruler Of the Romans
resolved to see If Caractacus would be
as brave when facing warriors On
one OF the great holidays in Rome
Caractacus was taken to the great
open-air amphitheater where the popu-
lace gathered. He was told that II he
could defeat the bold knight that
would be sent against him he could go
back to his home. Caractacus fought
as he never had before;. for some
thing sweeter than his life was at
stake-that of his wife and children.
Justice seemed to have tempered the
metal of his weapons, and when he
struck the strong armor Of his antag-
onist gave way before his fearful
blows. The result was that Caractacus
and his family returned to Britain and
to happiness. 81 3,

Although the silk hat is not much
more than hundred years old. hats
of that shape were worn hundreds of
years before. In Elizabethan times
a cylindrical hat with brim rather

Raphael, it was worn very much ear

Egypt Probably the Only Place Where
Peculiar Hues May Be Observed
to Advantages,

In Egypt. where the atmosphere IL
very clear, the green tints OF the sen
set light are peculiarly distinct. As
the sun descends nearer and nearer
to the horizon, and IS immensely en-
larged, its rays suddenly become for
an instant of brilliant green. Then
a succession Of green rays sutfuses
the sky we'll nigh to the zenith.
The same phenomenon occurs at
sunrise, but less conspicuously. Some
times, at sunset. Just as the last por-
ton of the suns disk vanishes, its
color changes from green to blue:
and SO also after it has disappeared
the sky near the horizon is green.
while toward the zenith it is blue.
The fact was of course observed by
the ancient Egyptians, and references
thereto are found In their sacred
writings. Day was The symbol OF
life, and night that Of death. The set
ting sun, being identified with Osiris,

Briefly, the mechanical race judge
