Virgil is understood to have lived long on tbe bay of Naples, and be dwelle repeatedly with uuaurpaseed ef fect on the littoral phases of the sea, but on the element at large he ex presses little but a sense of vastness, power, mulevolence. It Is a toilsome and perilous expanse, to be hurried across and escaped. Across the land the Romans went with indomitable confidence, marking then? way with thoee works of pecul iar permanence, so that today the Brit on traverses the original roads they built, and the Oanl walks beneath their arches. But even In Imperial times the voyage from Brnndlslum to Greece was something of a hardship. The ocean was a thing "beetrew'd with wreck and disaster." In Its depths or on Its shores lay the bones of those who never received burial and hence could not pass over tbe Styx. When Tiberius buUt a yacht ha float ed It on the quiet lake Neml and very likely kept It anchored like a palatial houseboat. Tbe sea lacked that essen tial stability which the Romans so much valued. It was estranging. Ro man, adaptability made it a medium of empire, but never with the viking spir it. Sewanee Review. Johnny's Intsrprstation.

"You must be mistaken Johnny," but be waa snrs he wss right Tbe matter dropped nntn, during the week, the pastor call ed, when It was learned that the text was, "Fear not, the comforter will come."

But no paper passed except tbe receipt foi the purchase money which wus given by the buyer and which tbe bank otfl clat checked with a red mark. These receipts were not certificates of ownership and were seldom pre served, never except for purposes of identification when tbe new owner went to draw his first dividend. After that they were destroyed.

There were no many of them that when they were thrown Into the furnaces these became superheated, and the parliament houses burned down, which perhaps served the au thorltles right for keeping the anti quated system so long.
