are the grandest in the orient. The
platform referred 10 above and upon
which the largest Of the famous Baalbec
temples were erected is an artificial
mound about 30 feet higher than tic
surrounding plain, which gave room rer
immense vaults under the gigant &
structures which in ancient times gcaool
the wonderful city Of the east. -
"a good idea Of the immensely g.
these ruined temples m0y be geinr

still more remarkable some Of thcse
giant blocks Of limestone We're raised 10
a height Of 20 feet from the ground.
Three temples formerly stood upon the
artificial platform-the Temple Of the
Sun, the Temple Of Jupiter and the
great circular temple. The first was 200
feet long by 100 broad and was sur
rounded by Corinthian columns Of gram
tie 75 feet high and feet inches in
diameter. Six only of these immense
columns now remain standing. The
ruins of the Temple Of Jupiter stand on
a portion of the artificial mound some
10 feet lower than that upon which
those of the Temple of the Sun are now
scattered about It's dimensions were
originally $50 by 1870. The circular
ruin, almost as imposing as either OF
the two whose dimensions are given
above, is supposed to have been the
chief seat Of the sun worshipers of very
ancient times. The gigantic blocks OF
stone which contributed toward forming
the graceful outlines Of this once most
famous circular temple were so scatter
ed about by the earthquakes of 1922, 975
and 1859 that its dimensions in feet
cannot be accurately given. These three
temples and the platform upon which
they were erected were once surrounded
by wall which was a wonder within
itself, many of the separate blocks which
formed it being 30 feet long, % feet

Photographins tn Growth of Plants.

Photographing has lately been applied
to record the movements of growing
plants, and it is not necessary to add
that some curious results have been ob.
tanned. A photograph Of growing hop
vine, taken at intervals of go seconds,
shows that the movements of the young
stems consist of a succession of irregu-
lar circular and elliptical curves, which
vary every minute, even as TO direction.
Photography has also proved, contrary
to the old accepted idea, that plants
grow continuously and uninterruptedly,
even when asleep. st. Louis Republic.
