JACK FROST

Jack Frost was in mischievous
mood and bent upon having what he

the morning." he said, as he glided up
the side of the mountain.
Jack Frost rolled in the snow until
he was white and sparkling, not at all

with the little trees"

sound 1t was the cracking and

the moon was up it looked as If some
one had hung diamonds on them.
Jack could not help making things
beautiful even when he was bent upon
mischief. but the poor trees had not
expected his visit and most of them
were spoiled.
Then Jack crept along to a singing
brook, ripping softly in the moon

over 1t an fey cover and stilled its
voice, and the jolly little brook looked
through its CLASSY roof wondering
what happened when only short
time ago 1t was so happy.

Ths existing lower portion Of the
Capri structure Is a mass of burned
Roman brick, 40 feet square and so
feet high, sufficiently conspicuous to
show in photographs taken from
Monte Solare, at the other end Of the
island, two miles away. Its original
appearance is entirely problematical.
It may have had two or three stories.
The tower at Boulogne had several
stories and was 200 feet high. The
Capri tower was not any higher than
this, and In all probability not so high,
about 1000 feet above the sea. 1t
Is one OF the most valuable and in
teresting ruins on the entire island.
May Have Had Wireless System.
1t takes no great stretch of the
Imagination to believe that Capri was
a signal station-an imperial wireless
station of ancient Rome. We know
that the ancients signaled In various
ways and over long distances. They
signaled by beacon fires by beacon
smoke, by pigeons, by flags, and by
shouting from one sentinel to another.
Possibly the Publica acta (Senate
JpurnaD and the Diurna acta (author-
lied news) were sent to Capri by signal
instead of by messenger. We can con-
ceive that such a system, organized
most likely under Augustus, must have
operated very smoothly after some
years of experience and practice.
The mirror system would cost no
money to operate, would be easy to
use, and by it long signals could be
sent. Under the practical rule of the
Romans, beacon signaling was doubt
less somewhat advanced and by it
long signals could be sent, perhaps by
making the beacon flare up by adding
periodically small quantities of oil.
This is a mere surmise, without
basis other than the general advanced
character of Roman civilization, which
lacked little we have today. The
Romans were not artistic, but they
! were wonderful mechanics, hydraulic
engineers, sanitary engineers and great
builders of all kinds of structures and
highways. They had water pumps.
