Much is being said about the COM
parativo cost Of an iron bridge and n
stone arch and the peculiar arGumentin
favor OF the latter is urged that it would
stand for an indefinite period and require
no repairs, while the former would have
to DO rebuilt say at the end OF twenty.
five or thirty years at a great cost.
1t is proposed to issue bonds in the
amount of$75,OOO, bearing four and one
half per cent interest per annum. Add
to the principal the aggregate interest
and what will your stone bridge cost you
by the time the bonds mature in 1923?
1t is estimated by competent bridge
builders that a steel bridge, with all the
virtues and none OF the objections OF q
stone structure, can be built for less than
$4,000, Add to this the small amount
of cost for repairs during the quarter OIL
n century the bridge would last grant
ing that it would last only for that
period), and the total amount will not
approximate one.hali the interest alone
on the bonds for n stone bridge for the
same length OF time,

The average weight of the female brain
las never yet been determined. One of
the best-known tables of the weights of
the brains Of the two X is that quoted
by Prof Huxley in his "Man's Place III
Nature, where the results seem adverse
to women. Allowance must, however, be
made for the following considerations: In
the cases Of men a larger number OF brains
were weighed, among which were includ-
ed the brains of many celebrated men, es-
p~ecially collected for this object. The
women's brains were much fewer in num-
Der. taken from the lowest sources, and
did not include the brain Of any woman of
distinction. A comparison of such mater
ial is obviously unfair. Yet among the
female brains the heaviest brains known to
science was at that time discovered. 1t
weighed several grammes more thar the
brain of Culver. Since that time, however,
though great pains have been taken to as
certain the brain weight of celebrated men,
not one record exists of the brain weight
Of famous women. The brain Of George
Eliot vas especially remarkable, and it is
stated IN her life that a cast of her head
showed the largest development from brow
to ear of any persons recorded, except
that of the great Napoleon.

The art of window dressing we have
learned from the French. Two things are
necessary, a sense of color in masses and
by contrast and an appreciation of the
value Of forms repeated. These Americans
are getting and it marks progress on the
way to becoming an artistic people. A
glove shop and a place forwomen's gear is
a case in point. The window is LAID in
black. On small raised stands are long
black silk stockings folded with hanging
ends, and on each ofthese are perened long,
yellow kid gloves knotted exactly in the
same way. Above these, which suggest,
by the way, pre-RaphaelIte flowers in a
foreground, are black knitted silk vests,
hanging like banners between the long
yellow gloves, which have the effect of
streamers. In the center Of ali is another
vest, crossed by q magnificent pair of yell
low embroidered CATERS. The window,
with its reiterated yellow and black, might
serye for an Austrian rally.-Aer York

The insect known as s.grauddaddy long

The insect known as ''gra uddaddy long
legs is thought in this country to possess
some mysterious knowledge. Children, on
seeing it, ask ii, ''~franddaddy long legs,
where's my cower believing that it will
indicate the proper direction by raising
one of its legs.
Spider superstitions are also abundant.
They should not be killed. Spaniards, in
the Sixteenth century, believed that spiders
indicated gold. where they were found in
abundance. In Germany, it is said to in
dictate good luck to have a spider spring
his web downwards toward you, but bad
luck when he rises toward you. There
are said to be no spiders in Ireland, nor
will spiders spin their web in an Irish oak,
nor on a cedar roof.-F s Bassstt IN
