liberty to Rome The price she paid was her own life The girl was Virginia Her fate forms one of the most romantic dramatic love stories in all history r Rome was In those days swayed al ternately by two great political par ties the wealthy aristocrats known as Patricians and the plain peo ple who called themselves Plebei ans Appius Claudius a patrician had persuaded the Romans to elect as their rulers a Decemvirate council of ten men with himself at Its head This council had crushed the liberties of the people The plebeians had for merly been represented and protect ed by two elected officers called tri bunes But the office of tribune had been abolished Appius Claudius and his favorites were allowed to misgov ern the city to suit themselves Some miles outside the walls one of Romes two armies was encamped In this army was a brave plebeian named Lucius Vlrginius who had risen to the rank of centurion captain He had one daughter Virginia whom he adored and who In her fathers ab sence remained Iat the centurions house at Rome under care of her old nurse Young as she was Virginia had already fallen In love with her fathers friend the brilliant young orator Icilius The two were betrothed although Virginia was still a schoolgirl Appius Claudius had seen Virginia passing to and from school and re solved to make her his slave He dared not seize her openly So he told Marcus Claudius one of his hangers-on to claim that she was one of Marcus own slaves stolen from Tils house in early childhood The case was to be brought before Appius who Would give judgment in favor of Mar cus and later receive the slave from him as a gift Accordingly one morn ing as Virginia was hurrying to school Marcus and his servants ar rested her Icilius rushed to his frightened sweethearts rescue By anger of the townsfolk against Appi us A mob threatened the tyrant forcing him to modify his furst plan of deqiding for Marcus He agreed plausibly to postpone the hearing of ns case until the next day so that Virginius could be present to testify in his daughters behalf Then Appi us stnt secretly to the army ordering its generals to prevent Virginius from leaving camp But n messenger from Icilius reached the father first and f Virginius hastened to Rome Next morning he and Icilius brought Vir giniafbefore Appius In vain the father and lover ap pealed for justice Appius without waiting o hear the evidence decreed that the weeping girl was Marcus slave The people clamored against tins wicked decision and attacked the man who made it Appius summoned his guard to beat back the crowd Virginius saw he could hope for no redress either by force or by law One tiling alone could save Virginia from a life of slavery The fathers resolve was quickly taken During the confusion Virginius drew his daughter to one side clasped her to his breast and whispered words of tender farewell He kissed her again and again and stabbed her to the hearty Brandishing the reeking knife lie strode across to Appius Claudius crying On your head be the curse of her blood r Icilius wlnl with grief snatched his dead loves bedy in hisjarms and held i aloft that all might see The mob Went raad with rage They brushed aside the guards and charged the ty rants judgment seat Appius fled to his own house for safety Meantime Virginius still gripping the red knife hurried to the army arid told what had occurred Icilius mounted a fleet horse anfl galloped to where Romes other t army w as encamped- Lashing the troops to fury by his passionate ora tory he led them back to Rome There they joined the army which Virginius had aroused - People and soldiery alike took pos session of the city The Decemvirate The Clamor for Vengeance was overthrown and its members imprisoned The old popular government was resumed with Icilius and Virginius as tribunes Appius Claudius was thrown into Fear to Depend on OH It Is curious that the British naval HINTS ON COOKING CULINARY MATTERS DEALT WITH BY EXPERT Sifting of Flour Important If Lightness of Bread or Cake Is to Be Attained How to Make Really Good Soup Flour should always be sifted sever al times as this adds to the lightness of bread or cake When sour milk is to be employed with the flour cream of tartar or baking powder is omitted and only soda used Tea cults made with soda and sour milk are delicious southern delicacies A quarter of a teaspoonful of soda is suf ficient for a quart of flour Crumbs that are to be icept for any time should be put in glass jars Jars with the tight screw tops used for pre serves are excellent for the purpose The crumbs will keep better If the bread is first dried in the stove then grated and bottled when entirely cold All scalloped dishes include crumbs in the mixture and a dry dust of them on top For chicken souffle put a table spoonful of butter in a pan and melt it Into this stir a tablespoonful of flour until smooth Then add a pint of milk and stir continually until it boils Add a cup of stale bread crumbs and cook one minute Take from the fire and add a half teaspoonful of salt and pepper and parsely to taste with one pint of cold chopped chicken and the yolks of three well beaten eggs Beat the eggs to a stiff froth and stir care fully into the mixture Pour into a greased baking dish and bake in a quick oven for twenty minutes Game fish and oysters can be used in the same manner The freshness of green vegetables t adds much to their taste and diges tive qualities A withered vegetable may be freshened by soaking it for some time in cold water but it will never be the same as the fresher thing The vegetable plucked from the garden with the dew of sunrise and in the pot with noon holds the flavor divine it still breathes the sweet breath of Mother Earth It is not
