"Andivius Hedulio" by Edward Lu
cus White. Here is a romance of an
cient Rome, which is as different
from all other romances of ancient
Rome as its name is from the name
of other books.
As a siory it is a cascade of never
failing adventure; but it is much
more than a story, it is a literal re
production of the most j wonderful so
ciety that the Bncient world ever saw,
with all its splendors and its miser
ies, its peculiarities, -its gods and
traditions, its nobles and.its officers,
and its emperor, master of the world,
who at this period was Commodua,
the most matchless athlete of whom
j history holds any record. ,
And the Romans and the grandeur
that was Roman are not left as the
far away, abstract creation of a
writer, but are brought into the
reader's consciousness exactly as if
they were what he meets about him
in his familiar daily life which is
the final of a great book.
"Queen Victoria", by Lytton Stra

of the Queen as a woman of the so

relation to those changes as head
