Taxation in Rome.

During certain period the republic
of Rome did not pay taxes. The third
Macedonian war resulted in victory for
the Romans and brought to an end
the ancient kingdom of Macedonia in
16S B.. c.. In describing the triumph
accorded the victorious Roman general
it is related that the celebration con-
tinued for three days. On the first day
250 wagons carried the statutes and
paintings which had been plundered
from Macedonian cities. On the next
day there passed many wagons, carry
ing Macedonian standards and armOr,
followed by 5000 men loaded with
the silver money and silver plate
| which had been secured in the booty.
| On the third day came procession of
men carrying gold spoil, followed by
! the conqueror in a splendid chariot.
| Rome so filled her Golfers with treas
ure by this plunder that the republic
| never thereafter taxed her citizens.
| Thus. while the statement is historical
| Iv true. the fact that there was no tax
alton in the ancient Roman republic
for Il period of several years is not at
all creditable to the Romans, for the
condition was the result of plunder
instead of the economical administra
ton of public affairs.

Rabbits of the World.

All of the domestic varieties of rab-
bits, except the Belgian hare, are de-
scendants of the burrOwing rabbits of
the Old World, and the big European
hare, almost as large as our western
iaclxrabbit, is the ancestor of the So
called Belgian form, which is now
quite popular as domestic animal Of
profit and is becoming more so, OBJ
serves an exchange.
In the Northern hemisphere of the
New World we have many more species
of hares than the Old World can boast
of. as the cottontail, the Southern
swamp hare, the Arctic hare or snow
shoe rabbit and two species of West
ern jackrabbits or giant hares. Yet
we have not successfully domesticated
one of these forms, though this might
be done as a matter of profit in the
production of meat.

ELBA'S SUPPLY OF IRON ORE

ance to the lsland-NapoIeon Was
Held Prisoner There.

The Island of Elba, celebrated as
the place where Napoleon was i'm
prisoned in 1914, has since Italy's en-
trance into this war attracted much
attention as the location of valuable
iron mines, writes a correspondent.
In view of the scarcity of iron mines
in Italy and the difficulty of transport
ing ore or pigs from the United States
for use in the munition factories the
mines of Elba have given a new i'm
portance to the island. Travellers on
the GenoaRome Express, which skirts
the seashore of the mainland, permit
ting view on a clear day of the blue
island rising out of the water six miles
distant. think rather of the tall foun-
dry stacks in the foreground at Piom-
bino than of the great soldier of other
wars.
In the days before the war this ex-
press stopped at Campiglia to put off
tourists for Piombino and Elba. To
day it stops to put off business men,
skilled iron workers, italian soldiers
and their Austrian prisoners interned
on the island. The side track at Cam
| piglia has been enlarged since the war,
| too, for the purpose of handling the
large quantity of iron freight brought
over from Elba. 'Napoleon's name has
almost been forgotten on the island, SO
! busy are the inhabitants with wal
work. "How can get to the villa San
Martinez? a visitor arriving on the
stone wharf of the harbor inquired OF
q workman. The workman looked al

added: 'You know, the place where
| Napoleon used to live" The man SHOOK

MAKING A MAN OF THE BOY
Schoolmaster Has the Great Task in
Hand, and on Him Depends the
Final Important Outcome.

The sum of all admonitions is that
the schoolboy must pay attention. That
is precisely what he is doing, writes
s. M. Crothers, in the Atlantic. He is
paying attention to a variety Of things
that escape the adult mind. AS he
wriggles on the bench in the school
room he pays attention to all that Is
going on. He attends to what is going
on out-of-dOors he sees the weak
points of his fellow pupils against
whom he is planning punitive expedi-
tions; and he is delightfully."- conscious
of the idiosyncrasics of the teacher.
Moreover, he is a youthful artist and
his sketches from life give acute joy
to his contemporaries when they are
furtively passed around.
But the schoOlmaster says sternly ::
my boy, you must learn to pay atten-
ton; that is to say, you must not pay
attention to SO many things, but you
must pay attention to one thing, name
ly the second declension."
Now the second declension is the
least interesting thing in the room.
but unless he confines his attention to
it he will never learn it, Education
demands narrowing Of attention in the
| interest of efficiency.
A man may, by dint of application
to particular subject, become a sue
cessful merchant or real estate man OF
chemist or overseer of the poor. But
he cannot be all these things at the
same time. He must make his choice
Having in the presence of witnesses
taken himself for better or for worse
he must, forsaking all others, cleave
to that alone. The consequence is
that by the time he is forty he ha.
become one kind of a man and is able
to do one kind of work.

sprouted oats they want to eat, which
is about a square inch of sprouts, grain
and roots, enables one to reduce the
grain ration about one-third and there
by effecting a saving in high-priced
grain. Oat sprouts can be produced at
about 20 to 25 cents per bushel, while
the price of wheat is about 1920 per
bushel. 1t is also remarkable how
sprouted oats influence the laying Of

One of the characteristics of good
laying hen is a large comb. The old
timers used to say, ''the bigger the
comb, the better the layer" and there
is a great deal of truth in it. Notice
the large comb of the black Minorca,
one of our very best layers, and the
layer of the largest egg of any breed.
Notice the large combs of the Leghorns,
the best of egg-layers. Put it down as
an axiom of truth that a hen with a
large comb, and bright red comb, is
a good layer.

Sheep are peculiarly susceptible to
