Doors In China.

In China doors are often round, leaf
shaped or semicircular. In placing
them the luiIdcr usually avoids having
one opposite another lest evil spirits
find their way from the street into the
rCceSSeS of tn" building The door
ways separating the courts of garden
are usually of an elaborate kind, and
the octagonal form is one of the most
popular.
Religious superstition asserts itself in
Chinese architecture. and the universal
&acredneSS of the numerals three and
nine is shown in the arrangement Of
temple doors There is a triple gate
way to each of the halls of the imperial
palace. and the same order prevails at
the Ming tombs, and the sacred person
of the emperor when he was in his Pc
king home could only be approached
even by the highest officials after three
times three prostrations. The Temple
Of Heaven has a triple roof, triple
marble staircase, and all it's mystic
symbolism points either to three or it's
multiples.

From the West to the East.

Although New York owners of real
estate are almost in despair because of
the exactions to which they are sub
jected, and complain bitterly of the
abuses of the city government, many
wealthy corporations have decided
that the first city of the United States
is better place than the second city
for them to do business in. 1t is re-
markable list of corporations, controll-
ing numerous mills, furnaces and
workshops, which have deserted Chi
cago and have come to Manhatten with
bag and baggage.
The exodus from the lake front to
the sea. coast has been especially
marked among the industrial cOmbi-
nations which handle metal and ma
chinery. They rent whole floors in
the tallest skyscrapers in the metropo-
lis and bring with them regiments ot
clerks, bookkeepers, typewriters, stem
ographers and office boys. This is a
business hegira of peculiarly inter
esting kind. 1t gladdens the heart 0
the owners of business buildings il
and near Wall street, while it leave
