Hollow BRIcKs. One Of the new feat
res in building in New York city Is the
of hollow bricks for partitions and even
htside walls These bricks are so mould
ID that when wall is perfectly plumb
yeu can drop pebble right down in the

Walls thus built are said 10 resist heat and
cold far better than .he solid kinJ. and they |
are about 7s per cent cheaper. No doubt |
ibis kind Of brick would be just the thing |
"a this kind of climate.
