BACON funtininn and Thendorn. THE claim of the admiration of the modern world of Homan Emperor Juaunian rests upon his codification of th<» Roman laws. To th:* day that monumental work continues to influence the jurisprud ence of practically every Occidental country. In A. D. 5-7 Justinian, in his forty-fourth year, was heir-apparei* to the throne, hia unde Justin he In* Emperor. The scat of the Ro man Empire at that time was Con stantinople, having been transferred from Rome 200 year* beftre by the first Christian Emperor. Constmtme. Justinian was noted for religious fervor and etudiousness. Except for his interest in chariot races, which were then the craze of th® Roman world, he rarely ever took part in anythin* that aavortd of pleasure. After the races one day his friends induced him to enter the theatre, which occupied another part of the great Hippodrome, in which the laces were run. On entering Justinian was shocked The performance was a medley of toting. singng and dindne—a sort ©f Caroling Vanities. Or.u performer In particular. Theodora, stood out prominently—a beautiful girl, in a ccstume which was altogether negli gible. Recovering quickly from h:s em barrassment. Justinian signified to his friends th ax he wculd like to meet the d»nrer. And. after a brief interview with her. he rejoined h:s friends and announced ;n the most casual way that h# had asked her to become his wife. Theodora at that time was twenty three. She was one of three daugh ters of a man who hi.d been the feeder of the bears at the Hippo drome. She was six vesjs old when he died, and her oldest sister was fcut nine. Destitute, their mother sent the children to th® Hippodrome th**rre, to take part in such roles as might bo suitable to their tender years. Theodora grew to he the most beau t'ftil of the three ch Idren Admirer after admirer lav ished fortunes upon her. None, however, had ever asked her to he his wife until the heir to j the throne of the greatest empire the world had ever seen, proposed to her. She became a good and dutiful wife, not even her enemies ever breathing a word of scandal about her in so far as loyalty to her hus band was concerned. But she was ] frightfully revengeful. So infatuated was Justinian that. ' after the death of Justin, when he and Theodora were crowned, he made hie subject* take an equal vow of obedience to the Empress. Co equal with him in power, it was ; ready she wno ruled the empire, as Justinian never undertook to opv>ose her will. Beneath th* palace was a .abvrm thine network of dungeons. Hun dreds were confined there for even ( innocent references to the Empress' | past. They rarely came out except to be beheaded. Delisarius, who is accounted one of the four greatest g-ner;.Is in history, and to whom , Justinian and Theodora owed their 1 rescue from 30.000 rebellious Greeks I after choosing an Emperor of their1 I own, was eventually deprived of tight and reduced to actual beggary i through the hatred which Theodora had instilled in Justinian against him. Delisarius died as a Wind street '■ beggar in A. D. 564. although he hid vanquished Vandals. Goths and Ostrogoths, saving Africa. Italy. Gaul and Ppsin from being wrested from the empire. Theodora had died many vears tv»fnre. but her spirit of revenge ' lived beyond her grave.

Hat shoes, gloves, handbag and jewelry, all must be right ar.d particularly suited to the costume worn If the principal costumes designed for day and evening are to he black, blue, red or brown, see to it that the dresses for less im portant duties and occasions have in them a touch of the color used for the dress or its trim n»ing. then the accessories will be easily inter changeable. Shown today are a group of acces sories designed to do perfect duty with several outfit-. The hat is of medium brown felt with an inset of darker brown \elvet that ties in a bow at the bark. The tan gloves with brown gauntlets hav» no side seams. The bag would be nice with botn a brown and black frock as it is of black suede with beige reptile trim.

For that one little inch or two, moie or less, may make all the diffeience be tween a jagged and a harmonious effect. Before deciding on even the small items, like little tables. lamp bases, occasional chairs, and so on, the space available should be meas ured carefully in relation to size of room, height of ceiling, and so on. This is especially important, in view of the fact that furniture of small size gives a deceptive impre sion when viewed in the shops. Most minor items look extremely small, as they stand in relation to the larger pieces displayed in the showrooms. But once at home they may look more bulky. End tables, for example, are most convenient when their surface is | perfectly adjusted to the arm of chair or couch. An Inch or two above that level and It mean* need less discomfort—l av ing to raise the arm when one rests m the chair, instead of comfortably reaching out at the chair level for books, cigar ettes. etc. Having the end table an inch or two low is the lesser evil, but the even height not only is most convenient, but presents the more harmonious appea-anec. Lamp heights also require plan ning in advance, or one tends to select bases a bit too h.gh for the surface. This tendency has appar ently been recognized by some of the manufacturers, for many of the new type lamps this season run to squat, low bases and generous brimmed shades to match. Low. roomy chairs are usually the most comfortable, although this is a matter of personal preference.

A Fashion Model’s Diary By GRACE THORNCLIFFE She Is Impressed uith the Importance of Perfecth 4***mhlrd Accessories. BILLY and l are becoming real social gadabouts.

To drop Into a cozy apart ment for a cup of tea and a chat with one's "intimates" after a long day at the shop or office is restful and pleasant. I ve been interested in noting how . the gtrle who attend these "in formals" manage to look so smart, for like myself most of them have been working all day. But after a little thought I decided that the true secret of their chic was found in their carefully chosen accessories. No shoes with run-over heels or worn gloves among these girls. Several girls this afternoon wore hats of the new modified tricorne shape, and there was a general pref erence evinced for suede gloves end shoes in both black and brown. I was glad that I felt no need to apologize for my own accessories j w hlch I had chosen to wear with a black aomi-tailored Canton crepe frock. Billy said I looked danger , ously coquetish in my black felt hat.
