HIGH BUILDINGS.

| In large cities land in good business
locations becomes extremely valuable
This fact coupled with the invention
and perfection of the elevator which
makes the tenth or twentieth story as
accessible as the third or fourth was

PEELED real estate investors to erect
very tall buildings, When the Ma
sonic temple. with its twenty stories
was erected In Chicago. 1t was re-
garded as the acme of daring archi-
lecture; but n few years later the
American Tract society of New York
went four stories farther skyward by
erecting a structure Of iron coated on
Inc outside with a layer OF brick,
which contains twenty-four stories.
Then no man could answer the uues-
ton how high into the air venture
some architects would dare to 20. and
Tor some years the sky-scraper prob

American cities. especially Chicago
and New York. About two years ago.
as an exploit OF yellow" journalism,
yet with a well felgned air of good
faith. the New York World published
graphic description, accompanied by
plans and big pictures, of a building
two hundred stories high. One build
Ing such as the World portrayed, was
a city. Its corridors were veritable
streets. 1t contained an independent
system of water works, a lighting
plant, churches, theaters, school.
houses, stores. manufactures, etc;
and elevators took the place OF street
cars affording ready transportation.
Whether II would be either practical
bic or profitable to erect building
two thousand six hundred feet high
which would be the height of one con-
tanning two hundred stories, allowing
the usual thirteen feet to each-is a
problem architects and fnanclers may
hgure and theorize upon, but Chicago.
through Its board OF aldermen, has
decided that the experiment shall not
be tried In that city The board late
" passed an ordnance limiting the
height Of buildings to 1870 feet, or ten
stories The chief objections to the
sky-seraper are the frightful mortality
likely TO result In case one of them
should fall or be burned. Horrible
scenes must ensue We're fire to pre-
vent the denizens OF the upper floors
from descending on the elevators, and

TIRE height, or length rather. and the
loss of life in the falling building and
IN those on which 1t fell. and In the

appalling. Chicago has done well to
draw the line at ten stories.

the TIME roR ACTION.

The popular demand for prompt ac-
tlon In the Cuban controversy Is nat
ural enough. but on calm reflection 1t
Will appear that only the most dellber-
ate proceedings are consistent with the
interests of the country. To Spain 1t is
all-important that the declaration of
war, II II is to be war, shall come from
the United States. and that the first
acts OF hostility shall appear to be un-
justihable. If that can be accomplished.
Spain would he certain Of the moral
support OF the European powers and
whatever advantages may come from
such support. The United States may be

is OF commencing n war which more
or less affects the interests OF the
civilized world. 1t is of no small import
ance to have a strong cause, recognized
to be just, to espouse.
Were the administration to be guided
by the sensational journals that UNI

evitable. The country would soon be la

the month OF August
The first congress was held last year
at the place mentioned, most offthe ex-
penses being borne by Baron Edmund de
ROthschild, who Is largely interested In
horticultural enterprises in Palestine
and who has demonstrated that the
country can be reclaimed and made
prosperous in the hands of experienced
aborers.
The movement has many friends and
many influential enemies. The latter
claim that political considerations pre-
sent obstacles impossible to overcome.
The former believe the scheme prac-
teal one and claim that Hebrew state
can be established by refugees from
Russia and Austria and that its
economical success will be assured II
Jews In other parts Of the world will
purchase their olives. wine and other
products OF their brethren in Palestine.
The very fact that the movement is be-
Ing 50 extensively agitated is one of the
remarkable signs NJ the times which
cannot escape the observation OF those
who believe In 'the more sure word of
prophecy"

sponsible for still greater health and
comfort to others. These are the
housemaids of many of the popular
boarding places, who, seeing the
visitors in abbreviated dress, have
promptly followed suit. What in
creased ease and convenience this
means to the maids in their work may
well be imagined. No one factor in
household labor handicaps the whole
more successfully than the long skirt.
1t is weighty and it is supplementary
and 1t soon becomes soiled and drag
gled. A short-skirted maid can ac-
complish not only much more work
and in less time than one in trailing
garb, but she does it with nothing
like so much expenditure of energy

to maids for comfort and utility they
secuted the idea. 1t took the seal of
fashionable approval to bring about
their conversion.

Since the arc electric lights have

THE THROAT.

Years, as they increase, leave the
track of their wheels first on the
throat. Sometimes a woman may
have a soft, smooth complexion, and
a shapely juvenile figure, even when
advanced In middle age, and she might
pass for quite young were it not for
those tell-tale lines at her throat, And
these are so successfully concealed by
the ruifie that we need not wonder at
its long reign of favoritism. Middle
aged women, therefore, cannot be too
thankful to the rufHe, and they cam
not coax fashion too much to keep it
in favor. For evening with ow-
necked dresses, we cannot wear ruff
fle around the throat, but we can wear
a dog collar Of jewels, or even OF
plain velvet. Many ladies who have
long passed their youth have still re-
markably good shoulders, but a
corded" neck. Let them at once
adopt a dog collar or ruffle, and th~
may wear low-necked dresses as long
as they like I know a woman who
has quite a variety which are en-
brodered with spangles and colored
beads. The band must be wide enough
to cover the whole OF the neck and
reach well up to the chin. The prin-
cess Of Wales owes much to her dog
collar In the preservation OF her ex-
traordinary youthful appearance. Blu,
to those who can still show a pure
white throat, | say. do so. Air and
liberty strengthen the throat and
neck. Time will come but too quick
ly when the dog collar or rufle may
become a necessity more than an or
nament
