A couple of thousand years ngo the ttotnnn with a taste for natural beau lies and the clmrm of scenery would jrder his chariot or his litter or his iiorse to he ready In the morning for a rlslt to Tivoli, where perhaps he had i villa. The ride out to the Sahine nountnins. on the west slope of which :les Tivoli, would require about half a day. save on horseback, being very nearly 25 miles. Thus to go to Tivoli was no mere hasty excursion, nut an event calling for preparations ind anticipated with the keenest pleas ure. Today Tivoli is more easily reached. \ steam tram runs out from Rome and lands the passengers in about an hour ind a half. The railway line from Rome to Naples pusses through Tivoli and makes the run in about an hour. By motor one can reach the scene of indent Roman holidaying in three quarters of an hour If the road is fnlrly free of obstructions. If. how ever, the highway across the Cum pagna is well occupied with trnlli'*. the motor must slow down and the chauf feur must call loudly and frequently with his horn for carters to make way for passage and even to rouse from slumber to guide the horse, mule or donkey. Sometimes, as today In many cases, the driver sleeps through all the noise and the animal moves slightly to one side, while the motor is swung out upon the trolley track.
