Egyptian Architecture.

Egyptian architecture, the Oldest of
known styles, placed the weight firmly
on the ground. In the first stages Of
building the strength Of materials and
the art OF construction were but impe--
fectly understood, and to obtain security
masses of material were placed on a
broad base, narrowing upward in the
form of IA pyramid. 1t suggested secu-
Iity and permanence. The earliest eEtant
monument of the work of mantle
pyramids by the Nile-still rest on the
sand of the desert in their majestic
m~assiveness. The Egyptian buildings
were constructed on the model of the
pyramid. Truncated at various heights.
details and o-rnaInentation. however
varied, left the same impression of Sc
curity and p+rmanence.
The shelving base. from which springs
the propElon OF porch. the multiplica-
ton OF saort, stunted shafts. the shallow
r~eliefs. are all subservient to the one
idea. the building rests on the ground,
and you know it. The slender obelisk
placed in front as a foil brought into
prominence the massive solidity of the
building. The accessory sphinx. with
Its front paws placed fat on the pedes-
tai, the body firmly recumbent and Il :
head solidly draped was a type of I'M
mobility and rest.-London Tablet.

Learning to Pop.

1t is queer how small ali occurrence
serves to attract a crowd. The other
evening d popcorn kiosk at the corner of
D street and the avenue was surrounded
by a gaping crowd, ranging in character
from gamins to gentlemen, all breath
lessly watching the proprietor as he
shook a pepper over the gas famer. A
couple of young ladies happened to be
passing. and one of them inquired:
"What are those men staring at"
"They are learning how to pop" re-
piled her companion.
