"However, my tfcice, if I ever into trouble, you shall put on the vfltf and1 gown , for I'll be hanged if you're not the best special pleader in Verona." The girl put Tito down, and, jumping up, leaned her clasped hands caressingly on' the old man's shoulder. " " A good pleader wins hia cause, and so the little uncle will put aMM tiro on Padre Anselmoßwheel 1" A , 4 «11 ; puta new tire ?

" Where is the carretta?" "At the Golden Sun. Padre Anaelmo alwnya puts up at the Golden Sun." " Humph ! Matteo will be back presently —he can fetch it." „

"'I hero is my own good, kind. . . " Pardon, neighbour Beni—your servant, Signorina Giulietta," said a husky voice iv the doorway. It was a very small, withered, feeble looking old man, in spectacles, and a woollen nightcap, and a shabby snufl coloured coat reaching to his heel". His niinie was citti, and he was a Custodian of tho nmphitheatre. He also sold curiosities, and wrote " Antiquario" over the door ot the archway that served him for porter s lodge, shop, dwelling, " kitchen and all. His stock-in-trade comisted of Etruscan and Roman relics grubbed up by himself in tho substructions of the amphitheatre, or found from time to time by the peasantry round

about. " There is a party of travellers just driven up," ho said; "and I have a customer looking through my stock—a real connois seur, who means buying. If I "end him away, ho is sure not to come back again -, andseeing|theSignorinaGinlictta. . . ■ 11 You came to ask me to show the Arena for you? With pleasure, !sij?nor Ciiti—it will not be the first time, will it ? Give me the key«, and I will go at once. Take care of my basket, Uncle Stcfano 1" And away ran La Giulictta with the big keys. " She is a dear, blessed child I" quavered the old custode, looking after her with feeble admiration. " She deserves a good husband."

The wheelwright shook his head. " Plenty of time for that!" he said gruffly. " I don't want any nonsense of that sort put into her head, neighbour Citti -remember that." The travellers, meanwhile, had alighted at the entrance to the Amphitheatre— a father, two daughters, and a courier—all Knglish ; the father tall and spare; the daughters long and languid ; the courier loaded with wraps, guide-books, and sketch ing material!;. Li Giulietta unlocked the heavy wooden door, dropped her little curtsey as they passed in and was about to turn the key on the inside when a man came quickly across from the cafd opposite. "One-can seethe Amphitheatre?" he asked.

It was the sea-faring man of tho Hazza dci Signori. "It costs one lira," replied La Giulietta, pointing to a written notice in the custode'B window.

She admitted the English party without a word ; but the new comer was of her own class, and might not care to pay the fee. The man, however, like most sailors ashore, was free-handed and flush of money, and tossed down his lira as if it were a copper.

" The Amphitheatre is supposed to have been built about the close of the first cen-^ tary, and the beginning of the second," 9aid La Giulietta, repeating the little lesson she had learned from old Citti. "It is con temporaneous with the Coliseum at Rome. The circumference is fourteen hundered and «eventy-six feet The outer diameter of the buildinc from end to end, is five hundred and forty-six ifiet,byfour hundred and thirty six feet across. The height from the ancient pavement is one hundred and six feet. The whole is built of fine Verona marble, upon basements of Roman brickwork. Of the outer circuit, which originally consistedof seventytwo arches only four arches remain. This, if complete, would give only eight arches less than the circuit of the Coliseum."

" Good gracious !" exclaimed the tall gentleman, fretfully; "what is the girl jabberine about? Here, Jenkinson—this girl is talking Italian. Ask her to say it ac»in, will you ; and tell me what she says. What ? Dates and measurements ? Pooh ! we have all that in Murray. Tell her we i don't desire her information. We only want to go round the building." "I particularly wish to see the_ dens wbere the wild beasts were kept," said one of the young ladias. "And I want to go to the top, to make a sketch," said the other. The tall gentleman, standing in the middle of the arena, adjusted his double opera-glass and looked round the rowa of ancient marble seats, much as he might have stood up in his stall between the acts and looked round "the house ''at the opera. " Ah, yes," he said. " Very interesting. Very interesting indepd. Remarkably well preserved. Period of Diocletian, did you say, Jenkinson ? Just so. Well, my dears, Jerikinson shall find me a sheltered seat under the lee of the wind, while you go over the building. Jenkinson, I hope you hare brought both the fur rugs, and have not forgotten tho air-cushion ? Realjy now, we breakfasted so early, that I am inclined to cry 'Panem et circenses,' and take a biscuit and a glass of sherry. If you were Oxford graduates, my dears, you would not need to be told tnat ' panem et circenses,' means " bread and circuses ;" the watch word, so to say, of the turbulent ' plebs ' of Imperial Rome,— unruly gentleman whom it was hard enongh to keep in good humour by gifts of bread and the bloody shows of the Ampitheatre. You filled up the flask with the same Amontillado, I hope, Jenkinson ? The girl will take you round the building, my dears; and Jenkinson will stay with me. Don't be long, please; because there are other things in this town which it is our duty to see, and I have ordered luncheon to be ready at half-Dast one.

La Giulietta was as good a guide as Citti

himself. Armed with the old man's keys, she first took her travellers down to the gloomy dens and dank dark passages under ground, where in olden time the beasts were csged and the captives driven forth to slaughter. Thence she led the way up flights of marble stairs and through winding corridors, tothetopmostrangeofeeats. And now the vast theatre—magnificent under the open sky, sinking away tier under tire to the oval arena far below, like a snowy crater hemming in a frozen lake—lay mapped out marble-white beneath their teet. And beyond the mighty sweep of the parapet, they looked over the city with its palaces and churches, its open places and its clustering roofs of brown and orange tiles. And there, too, ran the swift river dividing it, like a curved scimetar of flashing steel ; and there, climbing the hillsides and fencing it round on every side, were the old walls with their forked battlements and picturesque towers, And beyond all these lay the circling land scape, green and wooded, with its convent crowned heights, its villas, its vineyards, its ilexes and cypresses; and the purple line of the Euganean hills; and the snowy peaks of the Italian Tyrol.

The English girls looked round for a moment in silence. Then the younger took out a small sketch-book—the inevitable little Windsor-and-Newton book with its pencil and elastic-band—and chose her point of view.

" You are not going to attempt to sketch " this," Theodolinda ?"f said the elder, with a slightly satirical stress on the demonstra tive pronoun.

"Do you know any cause or just impedi ment why I should not sketch it ?"

"Because well, because it is impos. sible."

"A cocur vaillant, rien d'impossible," quoted the sketcher with a cold smile, sharpening the point of her pencil. " Be sides, if it amuses me—if it;serves to recall the scene by and by ?"

To recall the scene I As if a tiny pcnciucu outline eonld recall thotc fantastic peaks aadjviolet shadows, those Wue hills and bronzed eypresßes, that arrowy river, those mediaeval towers, this marble wonder of sym metry and strength I " If it were tho day of the final conflagra tion. Theodolinda,'' said the first speaker impatiently, " I believe you wonld sit on a peak and sketch the world inflames 1" " Thanks for the suggestion. Should the opportunity occur in ray time, I will act ttpon it/ Clone by where they were standing, ! between the topmost row of seats and the 1 parapet, there was a rongh wooden plat form which had been erected for the use of the Government surveyors. '■ Turning aWay with a slight shrug, the I elder sister mounted this platform, thus not only commanding a wilder horizon, but i looking sheer down the outer wall of the Amphitheatre, which, like a huge cliff, : plurrged dowß, rugged and weed-grown, and weather-stained, to the piazza bek.v. In that piazza, tho busy little world of Verona ■was coming and goia«. There were loungers breakfasting outside the cafes; empty market-carts rumbling away towards ' the Porto N'uova; people hurrying to and foj itinerant fruit, chestnut, and lemonade vcudom sending np their shrill cries; hack cairiages infant for hire, and omnibuses coming in from the Southern terminus, laden with luggage and crowded with passengers. A funeral proecaion presently emerged from one of the side-streets j; an acolyte with a lantern mounted on a staff, a priest with an open book, and a following of hotfded penitents bearing a covered bier And before their dolorus death-chant died away, there Cattle a burst of military music, and a regiment of white-coated Austrian infantry marched briskly across the piazza, their bayonets flashing in the sun. The sketcher, meanwhile, was bray with her pencil; the sailor leaned auramßt the parapet j La Giulietta, resting on the old marble ceat a little way back stoic a glance at "The Fatal Loves of Rome* and l» Theodolinda," said the elder sister,, from her point of vantage on the !platf°"? > "do you rememember tnat beautiful little' flower with pink petals shading: into violet, which we found last winter at the top of the- Coliseum ? They told us you knew that it was one of flora peculiar to the bmldttg and unknown elsewhere." « yes—what of it 1" " Well, 1 see one here, growing in a crevice of C.c outer wall of tho Ampin "Vre you sure it is the same T" asked Theodolinda abstractedly. "I am confident nf it-as confident as one can be from this distance, Un luckily, it is quite out of reach . . . . °n> dear! Don't do that—pray don t! It )s too dangerous 1" " What is too dangerous ? "Why, look at this man ... • 1; uw foot slip?, he will be dashed to pieces ! The Bkctcher without rising, glanced np and saw only two people where a moment before there bad been three. The sailor had vanished. Jtoting the direction of the lady's eyes-per haps, gathering something of the meaning of her wordß-be had slung himself light y over the parapet, and by help of spch hold for hand and tootns he could find in the in tersticesand inequalities of the masonry, had lot himself down to almost in reach ot tne °» He must have understood what yon said," observed Theodolinda, coolly. But the other sister-realising what mart happen if the man's nerve or muscle failed held her breath, closed her eyes, and said

La Giulietta, meanwhile, leaned over breathlessly. She also realised the mane peril; but she neither closed her eyes nor felt the faintness of terror. She saw that he was agile and cool, and she admired 11» careles. courage morcthan.be feared his danger. Still her cheek paled somewhat, as he went lower, and still lower. His right hand, driven firmly in between the broken joints of the masonry, held on but a little way below tbo parapet. H.s right knee rested on a projection lower down. H«le foot was planted on the edee of a «tilHowei blot'<-his left hand was stretched down to pluck the flower. , But the flower was just a little beyond hi< reach. He bent lower, and as he bent, the veins of his right hand stood out, and the knuckles phnvn-l white below the skin. The man's life Luujf. by that hand ! . . The Englishwoman, opening her eyes lor a moment, ottered a taint exclamation. ThTtfrl matched off her kerchief twisted it into a rope, and with reaay pre.ence of mind, held it loopwise, at arm s length, over the edge of the parapet. _ He did not pee it. He saw nothing but that tiny pink blossom shivering m w breeze, half an. inch, below his fineers. He would surely not attempt to go 10 He' paused- steadied himself by a closer grip of the knee-shifted the fingers of the Fight hand .lowly, cautiously, a«M^organ player shifts his fingers on the holding notes, and wormed his way an inch or two °Now his fingers touch the weed I Now, carefullv-as carefully as if he were Catherine it from a rock by the roadside— he loosens it round ; draws it out, root and all; takes it in his mouth ; and, grasping the masonry with a double crip, hoists him self band over hand till he gets both on the ed<*e of the parapet. And now, his head having not yet cleared the level, he looks up for the first time looks up, and meets the girl's eyes looking nown. For one second, their two faces are scarce a couple of feet apart-in hers a tremulous emotion ; in bis, something that sends the quick blood in a torrent, not merely to her cheek, but over throat and brow. She draws back hastily. The next instant he has swung himself over-ltghted on hi« feet-picked up his hat-presented the coveted blossom to the lady on the plat "•Oh, thank you ! ' Graziemffle !' but how could you run such a dreadful risk— and for a mere flower ?" stammered tbo Engliah-womon, making a vague dash at a word or two of Italian. "It was too dangerous—' troppo' ' pencoloso, you know !" . ~ He smiled and made a gesture of dis-, "You must have understood what I' said .... do you speak English ?' " A little, Signora." " Well, you are a brave man ; but a brave mim should not risk bis life for nothing." ', It was no risk, Signora. The Englishwoman's purse was in her hand. » " I—l am very much obliged to you, she said, hesitatingly. • . But our sailor was not one of those wno take money for little courtesies. "At your service, Signora," he said, touching his hat and turning away. " It is the very same flower—lam sure ot it." said the lady, rejoining her sister. " And see, he has had the good sense to get it out by the roots! But it was'dreadful y dangerous. I shall never think of it with out a shudder. " I dare say it was not half so dangerous as it looked," replied the sketcher, intent on the curvature of her seats. " Kemernber that Arab who ran at full speed from the top to the bottom of the second pyramid, at Gheezeh 1" "Ah, well, he does it every day, and gets his living by it. This man would not let mo offer him a penny. But what strange animal have we here t" " An early Christian, I should say, dng up from Borne of those underground places we were in just now." It was old Citti, carrying a bundle of shawls and feebly bowing. The Signor down below had sent him with these wraps for the noble ladies. The Signor begged the noble ladies to beware of cold, and not to forget that the wind was blowing from the north-east. Also he begged them to remember that they had yet a long " giro to make before half-past one o'clock. , "What does he say Theodoliuda? asked the elder sister, whose Italian was evidently limited. " I haven't the slightest idea. He talks an unknown tongue—probably ancient Etruscan. Who are you, my good man ? Old Citti, between bowing and coughing, explained that he was the Custodian of the Amphitheatre, and that he had a small col lection of antiquities tor sale, if the noblfl ladies would condescend to inspect them as

they passed out. " And you, my blessed child," he added, turning to La Giulietta, " you can now go home ; for my customer is gone. And he has bought all my Foinan coins—at roy own price too ! Don't I always say you bring me luck ? Give me the keys, dear child, and let yourself out by the little door. Here is my pass-key—you can leave it with Uncle Stefano, and I will fetch it away when these travellers are gone." . , The girl was not sorry to be released. The morning was waaring on, and she_ baa apiece of embroidery to finish before nignt So she took down a pass-key, dropped a curt sey to the ladies, and tripped away down the great marble staircases and gloomy pas sages that rung so often in olden days to tne rush and roar of thousands.

During a reoant visit to Hokitika I was recommended to try your Kxtract of Kucalyptus Globulus by a brothor who had experienced great benefit from it in alleviatine a very aovero cold, and, no less to my surprise than satisfaction, i found tho dieeaso ■whioh had troubled me so long was conquered, and the skin resumed its normal condition.
