itors, and 1t is the intention to have In
use therein the most modern appli-
ances for cooking and chefs to whom
the A. b. C.'s and the higher classics
of the culinary art shall be as famH-
lar as the outer atmosphere. There will
be competent persons on hand to ex-
plain to the visitors anything they may
wish to know regarding the cooking
and appliances. 1t is intended that the
prices of this restaurant shall be very
moderate indeed. And the very non
European custom will prevail OF for
bidding tips to the mattresses, for. OF
course, no one will be employed about
the building who belongs to the sterner
sex, II II is possible to avoid 1t. All these
are rather unusual things for an archi-
tect to consider, but not only has M
Joseph Germaine planned the structure,
but so enthusiastic Is he over his idea,
that he has included in his documents
submitted to the French Commission,
all the details quoted here.
| OF course there will be plenty OF light
and air in this strangest of structures,
but the windows are to be of peculiar
shape and SO constructed as to leave
unmarried the contour of the face and
in no way detract from the general APP
pearance of the statue. In fact, the
architect claims that every detail will
be attended to so carefully that the
usual appearance of haste which has
married so many structures, will be en-
tirely absent here. He believes that
the artistic effect will be so thorough
ly maintained that the whole structure
will be the wonder of the world and
the delight of the entire profession OF
artists.
The promenade arranged on the fig
ure is, perhaps, its most unique feature
in a way. The wreath that rests with
seeming lightness upon the crown OF
the statues head, is divided into two
sections. These sections are about
thirty or thirty-five feet apart, and
the intervening space constitutes the
promenade. The entrance to this is
from the restaurant, and openings vii
be made through the material which
composes the wreath on each side, thai
will admit of full advantage OF the

The phrase "A Land of Promise

liabilities of the island of Cuba, With
a length of 775 miles, almost the dis
lance from New York to Chicago,
width varying from 30 to 100 miles
and an area about equal to that OF
Pennsylvania, Cuba, in the words OF
United States Consul Hyatt, of San
tiago de Cuba, stands in a geographical
position which, with her productive
soil. mineral wealth and climatic con-
ditions, should entitle her to rank
among the foremost countries of the
world. That she does not occupy any
thing like this position is no inherent
fault of the island itself, but rather oil
conditions growing out of the lack of
stable and just government and of
contented people. When the first es

II one OF our legislators at Washing
ton were seen prostrating himself upon
the ground and kissing it, as a relig-
ious exercise, at certain hours, he
would be an object of curiosity, and
obtain national recognition at once.
France has such a lawmaker. He is
a born Frenchman, who has embraced
the religion of Mohammed, and was
elected as a radical deputy. A physl-
clan by profession, and man oil
wealth, he will be marked member
even in a body where eccentricities are
often affected. 1t is said that he has
been accustomed to give medical ad-
vice without charge, and has engaged
a physician to continue this benevoien'
work. He is evidently man humane

to the use of any and all ladies who
may visit the Exposition. In addition
to this, it is intended that there shall
be a number of bed rooms, plainly, but
very comfortably furnished, each with
a bath attached, supplied with hot and
cold water. The rooms will not be
large, but OF sufficient size to avoid
anything like the stuffy effect. that Is
generally the principal feature Of a
email room. These rooms will be given
to the use of those who pay therefor a
nominal fee, just enough to cover the
cost Of keeping them in order. They
will be let to no one for any length of
time. as It is not the intention to have
lodgings in the building.

sort can be obtained in the restaurant.
The chief difficulty in carrying out
the ideas suggested by the artist Is In
obtaining photographs of the beauties
of all nations, as he desires. From the
best of these he would have taken a
composite photograph. 1t is his inten-
ton to at once send requests to the
authorities In the larger cities of diff
ferent countries, asking them to CO.
operate with the Exposition officials in
securing pictures of the most beautiful
women known In the vicinity OF the
residence of the person addressed
When all photographs desired are re-
ceived. II is the idea of M. Ger
maine to have a committee OF artists
appointed-a beauty committee-whc
shall decide from which pictures the
composite Photograph used as the
statues model shall be made up. This
committee will have one month IN
which to inspect the counterfeit pre-
sentiments of beauty and make its deci
sion. The architect declares that the
result cannot fail to be pleasing in the
extreme.
The photographs thus secured are t
be by no means permitted to waste
their loneliness in unappreciated Sc
clusion, but utilized in adding to thu
surroundings in the reception rooms OF
the first floor.

The Making OF Screws.

Screws are now made altogether by
machinery. The rods or wires from
which the screws are manufactured are
received by machine which stamps
the head, cuts the groove in the top
and then makes the spiral. by cutting
out the material In gradually de-
creasing cone, until finally the point
is reached. Watch screws are made
of a size so minute that, to the un-

respect, even to the groove on the top.
