Tall Flats.
New York SUM-

The most remarkable structures now
undergoing construction are those on
the west side near Central Park, VI
these the most surprising are in the De
Navarro or Spanish flats at Fifty-eighth
and Fifty.ninth streets and Seventh
avenue, and the Dakota atSeventy-second
and Seventy streets, facing the park.
There is probably nothing to compare
with these buildings in the world, Tor
the famed palaces OF the old word,
though they may cover a greater sur.
face, are far inferior in height. The
great hotels of the four or five largest
American cities are dwarfed by these
buildings, and the problem they are de-
signed to test is n thoroughly new one,
and one that there could be no excuse
for presenting in any other American
city, The Spanish flats are so-called be.
cause, though they, to all intents and
purposes, compose one gigantic structure,
2Ol feet wide On Seventh Avenue and
425 feet long on the cross streets, they are
divided internally into eight enormous
cubes, each with Spanish name, and
each nine stories high in front and fifteen
stories high in the rear, in accordance
with the singular and dubious new idea
by which each suit of apartments in n
fiat is to consist OF tall rooms in front for
the living rooms, and shallow rooms be-
hind for sleeping, cooking and the like.
Sixteen families will occupy each house,
10 that 1913 families are to find homes in
the entire building. which, big as 1t is,
does not cover whole block. II will
cost nearly S3,000,000.

Superstition OF Engineers.

s'By dead list / mean, said the en-

the boys say. You know they believe
that II one man or woman is killed at o
certain point, there are dead sure to be
one or two others before long. Su-
perstitiong Yes, that is what it is, and
no mistake. But some Of the engineers

cause we have seen 1t proved time

deaths arc sure to come one after an
other, but can't help wondering why it
is so often two. That's what they call
the duality, isn't iti When you come
to think Of it, everything goes by twos.

Some time ago an editor had what was
called "a cystic tumor" in his throat,
and one OF his contemporaries stated
that "Mr. Blank is suffering from q
sciatic tumor on his neck" OF course
this was an error; but greater error
is the mistaken idea that prevails among
some people that seiadc pains cannot be
cured. Not only those pains, but Rheu.
