The house, as a rule, has been the most
neglected Of all mans handiwork. That
is, he seems to bestow less care as TO Its
functionary fitness and less skill in its
beauty of proportions than he does on al
most everything else on which he stamps
the impress Of his imagination. The COM
fort and utility Of house depend so much
upon the arrangement and relative position
of the rooms that the success of design IN
execution may almost be said TO depend
upon the manner in which the planning is
carried out.
Unfortunately by the overlooking of this
fact essential details Of the plan are sacls-
feed for features Of the elevation. BY be-
slowing some degree of simple ornament
on them they can be made more attractive
and retain the comfort of a good plan. We
do not intend to urge extravaganza in this
matter-economy is quite as needful here
as elsewhere-but handsome house can be
built as cheaply as deformed or repulsive
one A residence may be rude, yet neat
and shapely; it may be very plain, yet very
attractive.
There are two methods Of making build
ing beautiful-by the fullest and most sub
tie development Of the constructive re
quirements and by theapplication of forms
which accentuate the organic qualities OF
the work. Certain parts, both inside ano
out, can Of course be treated elaborately
but it must seem natural and not an iso
lated piece of work.

Not Answered,

The French naturalist, Cuvler,
talked learnedly on his favorite
science, but like some other wise men,
he was inclined to be prolix When
one knows subject well, he Is apt
to like to talk about it, and to forget
that he may be expecting too much
Of his listeners.
The Emperor Napoleon expressed
himself concisely, and liked Others to
do the same, but he enjoyed listening
to Cuvier when the scientist would
state his important conclusions with
out too elaborate explanations.
One day Cuvier was a member Of an
Academy deputation which visited
the emperor at Saint Cloud. The
emperor greeted him cordially
Monsieur Cuvler, l am delighted
to see you'll What did you do at the
Academy last week."

question"
"Ah, and what Is the opinion of
the Institute? Does 1t consider that
the soil Of France is suited to beet
culture?"
The question was simple, but
Cuvier answered 1t like true savant
He began with dissertation on the
geological formation Of the ground,
then he considered the natural
history of the beet, and when finally
he drew his conclusions, the emperor
had long since ceased to listen.
When Cuvier had finished, the en-
peror hurriedly reused himself from a
fit of abstraction into which he had
fallen.
Marvellous, Monsieur Cuvier!" he
said. "But does the Institute con.
slider the sell Of France suitable for
beet culture?"
Cuvier imagining that Napoleon's
attention had been distracted in some
way, began his argument again, and
went through with it to the end.
The emperor did not consider his
question answered any better this
time. When Cuvier had finished, he
said:
II thank you very much, sir. The
first time l see your colleague,
Berthollet, l shall ask him If the
Institute considers the soil of France
suitable for beet culture. Youths

THE pEPosEp KHAN capital OF the
princlpality also called Khelat, was
occupied by British troops, who thus
chastsed the natives for harassing
the British soldiery on their march
through the Bolan pass to Afghanis-
tan. The deposed Khan ruled his
subjects tyrannically, and 1t was for
the murder Of his grand vlzler and
several OF the notables Of the coun-
try that the Indian Government de-
posed him. He lived in barbarlc
splendor In grand palace In Khelat
The palace Is said to contain Sl5,-

Beloochlstan, of which Khelat is a

there are barren plains. The entire
area is 1856, 900 square miles and the
population less than 100000. In
some of the valleys rice, cotton, to-
bacco, barley and indigo are produced,
and it is said that lemons grow so
large that man cannot lift one Of
them. Except In freshet seasons
there are few streams, The largest
river is the Doostee, which flows into
the Arabian Sea. 1t is only, ordin-
