BREATH OF ANCIENT ROME
Proud Symbol of Old Empire, as. p.
@. Rs" Still Appears in the
italian Capital.

On the cap of the man who was
lazlly sweeping the dusty Roman
street | saw shield with the letters
IS. z. Q. r." writes Vladimir POLKA
kofr In the London Daily Telegraph.
II was midday, the hot rays of the sun
were beating straight down, and the
clouds of dust whirled up by the
mans broom were full of sclntillating
particles
Suddenly it seemed to me that
was looking out upon a wide plain.
Among the whirls of dust | saw adj
vancing the compact squares of
Rome's legions. The helmets, the
shields and the corselets burned in
the sun, and the spearheads were like
sparkling flames. Over the squares
planned the eagles, the wOrld-cOnquer-
ing eagles of Rome, with talons fixed
firmly in the laurel of the wreaths
wound around the bronze tablets with
the lettering IS. p @. r."
Senatus Populusque Romanus-the
senate and the people of Rome; the
formula of the proud, relentless power
which transformed q township on
seven pretty hillocks into the capital
of q world
The clouds of dust became denser;
the legiOns marched into them and
disappeared. For a time the eagles
continued to fly overhead, then they,
too, were swallowed up. Suddenly,
out of the dust clouds emerged the
man with the broom. He paused in
his work; asked him for the mean
ing of the letters on his cap He
moved his hand in slow, carelessly
negative gesture.
These letters? Who can tell,
signor? An ancient sign, surely.
Something connected with the syndic.
But maybe not An ancient
sign, surely ;" Then, all of
sudden the lazy mans eyes flashed.
He said proudly: "Rome is so old, and
she is the capital of Christendom."
So, hidden away, the old spirit sur
wives. | set out to discover it's hiding
place. The letters S. P. @. r. / found
eyerywhere-on all municipal build
ings, on the uniforms and caps of city
employees, on tramway cars, even on
dustbins. But the vision of the eagles
would not come back.
Among the kindly, gay, easy-going
people l met there was no trace Of
the ancestral virility. If it is true
that in the soul of every nation there
are male and female characteristic
traits, it seems to me that those of
the weaker sex predominant in the
modern Italian.

Automobile Library.

In an article, Books That Gather
No Dust" in st. Nicholas, G. f. Thorn
son describes the distribution of
library volumes in country districts.
One Of the most interesting of these
wagons operates out of Hibbing, MINI.
This village, known as the richest for
it's size in the world, because of the
wealth of copper ore deposited there,
daily trip through the township,
distributing on the average 100 books.
This is the most complete wagon of
its kind. The machine is lined with
inside shelves, filled with as many as
1000 books. There is also a libra
rians desk, and six people may be
accommodated inside the library" at
one time. The car generates it's own
light and some heat, but coal stove
is installed for midwinter trips, since
the thermometer gets down to around
40 below zero. The librarian and his
patrons, representing about fourteen
different nationalities, are thus able
to select and exchange books in home
like comfort. When the drifts Of
snow pile high the car travels the
main roads, and deliveries to schools
and homes off the beaten track are
then made by children with their
sleds.

FIGHT FOR LIFE

SYNOPSIS-Answer an adver-
tisement calling for a young man
wiling to engage in service of dam
ger. Matthew West, ex-service man,
meets Natalie Coolidge, writer of
the advertisement. and without be-
ing instructed as to his probable
duties, is engaged by her, and that
same evening introduced to her
friends as her fance. That night,
in the Coolidge home, West is STAR
tied by the appearance in his room

idge and West plan visit of char
ity. Leaving West in the car, Ma
talie and coolidge enter a small
cottage. Before they return, West
secures information which leads
him to believe Coolidge is deceiving
Natalie for purpose. Natalie in
forms West she has been mistaken
in her suspicious and that she has
no further need for his services.
West is astounded, but leaves. On
his way out of the grounds, West
hears a revolver shot, and finds
Percival Coolidge dead, apparently
a suicide. In the city West is vis-
tied by Sexton, an old servant of
the Coolidges. Sexton tells him he
has been abruptly dismissed, for
no apparent reason. He thinks
Coolidge was murdered. Sexton
has overheard telephone CONVEX
sation in the Coolidge home, in
which a man demands Natalie's
presence Immediately. He gives
an address. and with Sexton, West
visits the place. 1t is a disreput-
able saloon. West is taken by sur
prise. knocked out. separated from
Sexton, and comes to his senses to
fad himself bound and helpless,
and confronted by a man named
Hobart. The man tells him he
,.FesD is interfering with his plans
and if he persists will be done away
with. West refuses any compro-
mise. Hobart sends for Natalie,
hoping she can induce West to
give up his quest.

then stood for an instant motionless,
staring down into the white upturned
face. He had followed the impulse of
the moment; had struck savagely !;
knowing it was his only chance. Thus
far he had done well; but what next?
He was conscious of bur one thought
one purpose-to escape from this
house. unpledged and still free to act.
Yet how could this be accomplished?
He had no plan, no knowledge even
of his surroundings, of what lay be-
yond the walls of this room. His ewes
swept the bare interior, seeing moth
ing to inspire hope. Hobart had said
this room was practically a prison,
and it looked 1.-THE walls bare, and
unbroken, and rough single cot. All
possibility of egress lay in the closed
door, and a narrow window high up
in the opposite wall, also tightly shut,
and shaded by heavy curtain.
His hand tried the door cautiously
the knob turned easily enough but
there was no yielding to his pressure.
The lock was evidently on the out
side, and he could discover no key
hole, no possibility of operating it
from within. Then besides in all
probability, guard would be posted
outside in the hall, waiting for some
signal from Hobart. West glanced
again at the recumbent figure, bend
ing over to make sure of his cOndi-
ton, then, gripping chair. silently

There was not minute to lose. He
knew that he must choose quickly

chance lay in immediate action. Stand
Ing on the chair West found the win
dow had been securely nailed into
place, but this had been done so long
ago, 1t was quite possible for him to
work the nails loose, yet 1t required
all his strength to press up the
warped sash sufficiently far. to enable
him to gain a view outside. 1t was
not encouraging. Evidently he was
upon the third floor, at the rear of the
building, looking down into cut
tered-up back yard. His eyes could
scarcely distinguish what was below,
as the only glimmer of light came
from a far-distant street lamp at the
END OF an alley, the faint rays creep
ing in through holes in the fence. Yet
one black shadow seemed to promise
