MODERN IDEAS OF COMFORT
IN DAYS OF THE CAESARS
Discovery of Lifts Recalls That Ro-

Rome.-Prof. Boni's discovery that
at least three large lifts, one of them
l2O feet high, were used in the pal
ace of the Caesars on Palatine hill in
Imperial Rome, comes as a surprise
to those who have always regarded
these conveniences as essentially mod
ern.
Discoveries likethese," said a life
long student of Roman antiquities,
make one realize how little the
world has changed in habit or
achievement since the days of Cae-
sars There has been found near
Pompeii a Roman hot and cold wa
ter system. The occupants could turn
on hot or cold water or both. Just as
in modern house. and this was to-
wards the end of the first century. A.

A mode of bathing remarkably like
the Turkish bath is described by Gel
sus, a writer on the art of medicine.
He advises the bather to go first in
to a moderately heated room and per-
spire slightly, after which he should
anoint himself and pass into a hot air
room. Having perspired there, he
should pour hot warm and cold wa
ter by turns over his head, and final
ly anoint himself-process being
probably precaution against cold.
Few people recollect that the Ro-
mans introduced a system of heating
their houses by hot air. The stoke
holes were outside and were connect
ed by shafts by with the air circulat-
edunder the floors and up inside the
walls.

"Please," she urged, smiling an
apology, ~ had so much rather

"She was mother to II chill

This was her sitting room, these

VOTERS SLOW
IN SHOWING
UP To VOTE

Little interest was manifested
in the bond election this fore-
noon and in fact In some pre-
cincts the polls were not opened
until nearly noon.
At 8 o'clock when polls were
supposed to open there were still
about a dozen ballot boxes at the
city hall. There was still one
left at 11:15, the fifth precinct Of
the Second ward
Little excitement was created
by the balloting and the two
judges and one inspector were en-
tirely sufficient to handle the
crowds.
A rush is expected this even-
ing, however, as the polls re-
main open until O'CLOCK.
Many voters In the eleventh
precinct of the First ward are un-
able to understand why the polls
were not open at 8 o'clock this
morning, or even half an hour
later.
According to Harry ]. john
ston, he tried to vote this morn
ing and found only one election
judge on the job, and no ballot
box. He declares he informed
the city clerk and the latter told
him they had nobody to send out
with it, and the man who should
have called for it was unable to
do so.
