bers of the local association at a sup

Bridge of Arts.
It was by the bridge of Arta that
the Greeks on the,wet side entered
Turkey. "The Dridga ,pf Arta." one
of the most pathqtl of Greek folk
songs, tells of the sacrifice of a hu
man victim at the building of a bridge
to appease its demon Jn the version
translated by Mr. J. C Lawson sixty
apprentices and forfy-ffve craftsmer
have toiled for three years at the
"bridge, and every night their day'f
work falls In ruin. ,Then the de
mon's voice bids tif sacrifice thr
master craftsman's wife as she come
to supper. They induce her,- with r
false story of a ring, to be fished up
to let herself be lowered, and her hus
band himself hurls a stone( down up
0 ( on her. She prays that the bridgf
kjnay ever tremble and all who crosr
it fall as now she trembles and her
tresses fall; but a reminder that her
brother may some day cross it
changes her prayer to one that bridge
and passengers may be as iron-like ac
she now feels.

far from the doctor as to warn nt hin

we know that Ut 9podermic should
not rust and that the medicine case
cannot; but our readers are bright
enough to read between the lines"

squired that these mattresses be con
