more graphically, perhaps, as it has the effect of moving picture of those ancient days embalmed in stone as if by some sudden enchantment.
 History Wrought in Stone.
 Chapter by chapter the entire his tory of the Daeian campaigns is re- vealed, with a continuity of thought and a precision of historical facts and verify of detail that are marvellous. The building of bridges, the natural difficulties of the country in which the wars were fought, the methods of siege and storm, advance and at tack by land and river, in open field and against walled cities, the details of ancient military engineering, cos tume arms and all implements of war, all these things are wrought there with such a wonderful fertility of de sign and dramatic vigor of expression as to form a veritable encyclopedia of Roman warfare of that period.
 The whole of the column was origi- nally covered with gold and color. Brilliant crimson, blue and yellow were largely used for the reliefs forming the main shaft and must have pre-. sented an appearance of barbarie splendor in the days of their pristine chromatfc glory. Nor was this drama in stone enacted with it's Hamlet left out. The figure of Trajan is every where with a predominant appeal. The idealiZed emperor is presented under all sorts of conditions that were cal culated to rebound to his glory, as the warrior leading his hosts, as the. master engineer directing the mechanr ical constructions, as a leader of scout ing forces, as a soldier sharing the. hard lot of his fellow soldiers, as the little father of his country" lead-- ing, directing, encouraging by ex~ ample, at all times in the spotlight, the soul of the army and the soul! of Rome

of his guns, which he kept polished like jewels and guarded as jealously as violinist his violin, or an Arab his harem.
 Dawn was just breaking as felt Charlie's great paw on my shoulder next morning. He was very serious. For moment, as I sat up, still half asleep, I thought he had news of To- bias. But it was only duck.
 was scarcely dressed when Tom arrived with breakfast, and in a few minutes we had shouldered our guns and were crossing the half mile of peaty waste that divided us from the marl lakes. Ahead of us, the crew were carrying the skiffs on their shoul- ders, and very soon we were each seated in regulation fashion on can- vas chair in front of our respective skiffs, with our guns across our knees and negro behind us to do the pol ing.
 Charlie went ahead, with Sailor standing in the bow quiyering with ex- citement. The necessity of absolute silence, of course, had been impressed upon us all by the most severe of all sportsmen. Tom (who was polling mel and I understood that our job, and also that of my companion, was to steal behind one mangrove copse after another till we had got on the other side of a quacking flock of teal which might then be exnected to take flight in Charlie's direction and rush by him in a terrified whirlwind This not very easy feat of stalking we were able to accomplish, thereby winning Charities immense approval and put ting him in a splendid temper for the rest of the day for, as the wild cloud swept over him, he was able to bring down no less than seven. Like a true sportsman, in telling the story after ward in John Saunders snuggery, he averred that the number was nine!
 The days that now followed for week might be said to be accurate copies of that first day. But they were none the less delightful for that-for there is a Sameness that is far indeed from monotony-though I will confess that, for my own tastes, toward the weekend the carnage of duck began to partake little of that latter qual- ity. Still, Charlie and Sailor were so happy that wouldn't have let them suspect that for the world.

 Andros, as no other of the islands, is surrounded by a ring of reefs stretching all around its coasts. We were inside the breakwater of the reefs and the rolling swell of ocean gave way at once to a millpond calm ness. We were at the entrance of North blight, one of the three bights which. dotted with numerous low-ly- ing cays. breaks up Andros island in the middle and allows passage through maze-like archipelago direct to the northwest end of Cuba.
