There is scarcely anyone who does

everyone knows that some persons pos

Sub ROSA" IMPLIES SECRECY
Term Had lie Origin Long Ago In Z
Plot Which Involved Existence
Of Sparta.

The origin Of the phrase sub rosa,
"under the rose," implies secrecy, and
had its origin in the year At B. G., at
which time Pausanias, the commander
OF the confederate fleet of the Spar
tans and Athenians, was engaged in
intrigues with Xerxes for the subju-
cation Of Greece to the Persian rule,
and for the hand of the monarch's
daughter in marriage. The negotia=
tons were carried on In a building
attached to the temple Of Minerva,
called the Brazen house. the roof OF
which was garden forming a bower
Of roses; so that the plot, which was
conducted with the utmost secrecy,
was literally matured under the roses,
Pausanias, however, was betrayed by
one Of his emissaries, who, by q pre-
concerted plan with the overseers and
counsel0rs of state, five in number
gave them secret opportunity t.
hear from the lips Of Pausanias the
acknowledgment of his treason. II
escape arrest, he fled to the temple
Of Minerva, and as the sanctity Of thu
place forbade intrusion, the people
walled up the edihce so that he might
die of starvation.
