PRESERVE GLoRIES OF ROME
to the Greatness of old RUI. era of the World.

Builders of ancient Rome knew a lot about concrete, and used 1t exten- sively ln civic and private undertak- ings. It was we'll that they knew so much about this building material and were so generous in the use of 1t. Had they used less durable substance In the building or the monumental struc- lures that were features of Rome the remains of these great projects would not be dotting all southern Europe, serving to emphasize the advance ment of the people who lived for cen- turies in these parts before the com ing of Christ.
 The discovery of cement by these early people was fortunate, for other wise nothing much would have been known about this wonderful race. They would have been obllterated and nothing of their history, intelligence, character or enterprise would have come down through the years to pOs- terity. They told their story on slabs of cement and built their homes, thelP government buildings, waterworks and the like of concrete, which has resisted the wear of thousands of years.
 Slabs almost as perfect as when made have been discovered by arch eOloglsts who have deciphered the chIseled characters which tell many wonderful stories about this race. The ruins of the buildings they erect ed are among the great sights of the world and are continually furnishing Investigators, students of the Roman period, with new sources of research into this really wonderful era in the progress of the world.

Predicts oxsrthrow of Rus.la.

Worcester, Mass.-PredictiOn that it would not be long before the Rus sian soviet government would be bankrupt and Overthrown" was made by Dr. Joseph NJ. GOldstein in an ad- dress at a conference on Russian af- fairs at Clark University. The faulty economic policy of the imperial gov ernment, together with political Op- pression and the steadily increasing sufferings of the Russian soldiers, created the basis for the BOlshevlst coup d'etat, he said.

when H. Fl. makes acquaintance with Bill Halliwell's tombstone. which I'm willin' to lay he does yet"
 'Well, good luck to you," said the grim Scot, land let me likewise warn all hands not to be too astonished If We find that the treasure is not in the cave. But I'll admit it is as good a place as any for beginning the search" |"
 The cave which was now the center of our hopes-I say our, because some how or other found myself hoping and fearing along with the rest, though carefully cOncealing It-ran under the point at It's farther end. The distance was about sixty feet from mouth to mouth, and back of this transverse passage a great vaulted chamber stretched far under the land. The walls of the chamber rose sheer to a height of fifteen feet or more, when a broad ledge broke their smoOthness. At high water the sea flooded the cavern to It's farthest extremity and beat upon the walls. Now and again, 1t was to prove, even the water-wOrn pavement between the two archways was left bare, and one could walk dry-shod along the rocks under the high land of the point from the beach to the cave. But this was at the very bottom of the ebb. Most ly the lower end of the cave was flooded, and the explorers went back and forth in the boat.
 A certain drawback to boating in our island waters was the presence of hungry hordes of sharks. You might forget them for a moment and sit happily trailing your fingers over board, and then huge moving shadow would darken the water, and you saw the ripple cut by a darting fin and the flash of llvid belly as the mon- ster rolled over, ready for his mouth full.
 What with the genius of Cookie and the fruitfulness of our island, not to speak of supplies from the Army and Navy stores, we lived like sybarites, There were fish from stream and sea, cOconuts and bananas and oranges from the trees in the clearing.

 The history of Captain Magnus was obscure. It was certain that he had his captains papers, though how he had mastered the science of navigation sufficiently to obtain them was a prob lem. Though he held a British navl- gators license, he did not appear to be an Englishman.
 The captain, as Mir. Vane had re- marked. was Miss BrOwne's own find. Before the objections of Mfr. Shaw evidently a Negative Influence from the beginning-had caused her to abandon the scheme, Miss Browne had planned to charter a vessel In New York and sail around the Horn to the island. While nursing this proj- ect she had formed an extensive ac. Quaintance with persons freQuentlng the New York waterfront, among whom was Captain Magnus. As I heard her remark, he was the ono nautical character whom she found sympathetic. by which judge that the others were skeptIcal and rude. Being sympathetic, Captain Magnus found 1t an easy matter to attach him. self to the expedltiOn-or perhaps it was Violet who annexed him. 1 don't know which.

WYCLIFFE's WORK ON BIBLE
Historians Uncertain as to What Part He Actually Took In Trans-
 Iation Into English.

John Wycliffe (1335-1384), who has been called the Morning Star of the Reformation" translated-or caused to be translated-the Bible from the Vulgate est. Jerome's Latin version) into English, with the assistance of Nicholas of Hereford and John Pur- vey. Wycliffe and his disciples la bored at the translation for some ten or fifteen years. Scholars are not agreed as to exactly what part Wy cliffe himself took in the literary work.
 Ut Is a known fact" says the En- cyclopaedla Britannica, "that Wycliffe proclaimed the Bible as mans su- preme spiritual authority, and that he sought In consequence by every means In his power to spread the knowledge of It among the people. It Is, there fore, In all likelihood due to the zeal of Wycliffe and his followers that we owe the two noble Fourteenth century translatiOns of the Bible which tradi- ton has always associated with his name, and which are the earliest con- plete renderlngs that we possess of the Holy Scriptures into English. The first of these, the so-called early yer sion, was probably completed about 1882, at all events before 1884, the year of Wycllffe's death. The second, or later version, being a thorough re- vision of the first, Is ascrlbed to the year 1888 by Sir Frederic Madden and Rev. Joshua FOrshall in their edition of these two versions.-Detroit News.

 "Jes' yo' cas- yo' eye on dis yere In- nahcent," Cookie would request, as he placed the suckling before Mir. Tubbs. 'Tendah as a new'bo'n babe, he am. Jes' lak he been tucked up to sleep by his nanny. Sho' now, how yO' got de heart to stick de knife in him, Mis- tah TubbsT"
 It was significant that Mir. Tubbs, after occupying for a day or two an undistinguished middle place at the board, had somehow slid into the carver's post at the head of the table. Thanking him were the two ladies. Everybody else had a sense of sit ting in 0Nter darkness, particularly I, whom fate had placed opposite Cap tain Magnus.

 "A good deal more, I am afraid" remarked the ScOtchman grimly.
 Miss Browne whirled upon him. In her cold eye a spark had kindled. And suddenly l had a new vision of her. I saw her4no longer as the de- luder of Aunt Jane, but as herself the deluded. Her belief in the treasure was an obSession. This map was her talisman, her way of escape from an existence which had been drab and dull enough, dare say.

CHAPTER VI.
The Cave WIth Two Mouths.

Obscure as were the directions which HOpperdown's niece had taken from his dying lips, one point at least was clear-the treasure-cave opened on the sea. This seemed an immense simpliication of the problem, until you discovered that the great wall of cliffs was hOneycombed with Assures.
 One of the boats which had con- veyed US from the Rufus Smith had been left with us, and in 1t Mir. Shaw, with the Honorable Cuthbert and Captain Magnus, made a preliminary voyage of discovery. This yielded the information above set down, plus, however, the thrilling and significant fact that a cave seemingly predestined to be the hiding place of treasure, and moreover cave with the specified two openings, ran under the point which protected the anchorage on the south, connecting the cove with the sea. Only the Scotchman remained exasperatingly calm and declined to admit that the treasure was as good as found.
 'TIl wait till 1 see the color of my money before I reckon the interest on it," he remarked. "It's true the cave would be a likely and convenient place for hiding the chest; the question is: Wouldn't it be too likely and con- venient? Sampson would maybe not choose the spot of all others where the first conner who had got word of the story would be certain to look"
 "Well, friends" remarked Mir. Tubbs, there's them that sees noth- in but the hole in the douginut, and there's them that see the doughnut that's around the hole. I ain't ashamed to say that old Fl. H. is in the doughnut class.

THE CAVE.

Synopsis-Jane Harding, respect able and conservative old maid but never too old to think of mar riage - with more money than brains, Is inveigled by a strong minded spinster, Miss IIigglesby- Bro Rne, into financing an eXpedi- tion to hunt for buried treasure oE Leeward island. Her niece, V IT, ginia Harding, undertaking to stop her, gets on the vessel and Is un- willingly carried along. By no means concealings her distaste Tor the expedition and her contempt for its members, Virginia makes the acquaintance of the Honorable Cuthbert Vane. Talking with Dugald Shaw, leader of the expedt- ton, Virginia very frankly ex- presses her views, practically ac- cusing Shaw and the other mem bers of the party, including a somewhat uncertain parsonage Captain Magnus, and a shady 'financier," Hamilton H. TubbS, of being in a conspiracy to defraud Jane Harding. Landing on the island Is a matter of some diflcul- ty, Virginia being carried ashore in the arms of Cuthbert Vane. The party gets settled. Miss Browne tells about the treasure. Virginia declares herself out of it.
