Then there were the fats divers,
all the bits OF information in the city.
Pliny cites the newspaper accounts Of
the funeral of the celebrated jockey,
Felix. The erection, fall and restora-
ton of public buildings were recorded;
so were the births, marriages and
divorces IN illustrious families; like
wise prodigies and curiosities. The
same Pliny sneers effusively about the
record of line of titles, and because
in another place an old priest swore
that he had seen the arrival OF the
first phoenix in Rome.
Petronius gives us ain admirable par
ody OF what the Roman got in his daily
paper. 1t was during a feast at the
house OF that ostentatious plutocrat
Trimalchion, who so far forgot his
imperfect veneer of aristocratic good
manners when in his cups as t. de-
scribe the origin of his wife, much to
that lady's discomfort. for she was
still climbing assiduously and did not
appreciate being thus given away in

Fortunately at that period the very
name of China, with her corruption,
her printing press, her powder and her

or Daily News, was the work of lit
observation-disclosures, careful and elegant,

papyrus or inscribed on a wall coated
with chalk (album). AS we have seen
1t pictured in that third rate city
Pompeii. the citizens stared around,
agog with interest. This lack of
printing press was surely fortunate
circumstance. since II goes far to ac-
count for the epigrammatic terseness
OF the Latin style. for the delightful
endeavor to express in one syllable
phrases to misinterpret.

he exacts a pledge from her-that II

Then he clasps the necklace around

She pleads that the penalty for
