HOUSES OF GLASS,

NJ. Jules Henrivaux, who originated
the Palace of Light at the last Paris
exposition, believes the time will come
when the people of civilized countries
will live in glass houses. OF course
NJ. Henrivaux Is an enthusiast on the
subject, and his views may be "A trifie
over-zealous; but 1t is, within reason
to believe that glass will be more and
more freely used in future years for
building purposes. because the raw
material from which glass is made is
practically inexhaustible, while wood
and even such metals as iron and
steel have their limitations as regards
the supply. The adaptability of glass
to all shapes and forms, its durability
and its cleanliness are other points in
its f1vor. Color effects. and finish of
surface. make 1t especially suited to
decoration. NJ. Henrivaux gives an
imaginative picture OF glass build
ing The foundations and walls
would be constructed of variety of
glass invented recently. known as
stone glass, which has already stood
the everest tests. IT is harder than
steel. AS foundation for modern
tall buildings, NJ. Henrivaux says it
has no equal. The walls of the build
ing would be of glass fastened to-
gether with angle iron, so as to per-
nit hollow spaces through which pipes
would pass, conveying hot air, hot and
cold water, gas, electricity, and ey-
erythIng for comfort and health. Even
the furniture. cooking utensils. and
other house implements would be of
glass toughened by new processes.
One can see how all his would con-
tribute to cleanliness, for everything
about the house from cellar to garret
could be washed without harming it,
Dust and other dirt would not find
much place for lodgement. BY en-

CURIOUS BURIAL CUSTOMS.

On the Ivory coast in West Africa.
between the rivers Bandama and Mi,
there lives a curious negro tribe.
known as the Baule. and which is a
mixture of several races. So curious
is it that NJ. Maurice Delafosse, a col
onial Official, has thought it well
worthy of study and he now narrates
interesting facts about It.. The cof-
fins used by the negroes, he says.
are rectangular. and each is fashioned
carefully out of a large block of acajou
wood. The sides. moreover are orna-
mented with coloured bas-reliefs. and
the cover is usually wrought in most
artistic style. As an example of such
cover. NJ. Delafosse presents one,
which was made In 1895 for the num-
my OF Il chieftan named Nyango Kuas-
81. On 1t the chieftan is represented
lying on a leopard skin. which has
been aristocratically engraved. the
spots therein being shown by squares

earth. and beneath 1t box of cart
ridges has been drawn. On the left is

drinking cup. On the right, in like

deaths head represents that one
among the dead mans slaves who, ac-
cording to ancient custom. should
have been sacrificed at the time of
his death. but whose life was spared
at the intercession of NJ. Delafosse.
Ordinarily Baule negroes are buried
as soon as they die, but those OF high
rank are rarely buried for seven
months. and some even are not buried
for seven years. In the latter cases
the body is embalmed. and then re-
mains In the room where death oc-

and cotton with which gold dust is
sometimes mixed. serves to conceal
the openings which the operator has
made In the body. Frequently thin
plates OF gold are also placed as a
shield over the countenance, and all
the ornaments that were in life are
spread over the body. So the dead
man lies on the mat where he died.
and such is the influence of the air
and the heat that within two months
his body is transferred into n mum

body OF Nyango Kaussi, for 1t lay
seven months in the death chamber
before it was taken out to burial.

DAYBREAK.

A wind came up out OF the sea.

BERLIN.s SEWAGE FARMS.

Excepting for some thinly popu-
lated outskirts. all the houses of Ber-
lin are now connected with the new
drainage works which are carrying an
nually from 60.000.000 to 70,00O.000 Gu
bic meters OF sewage to be distributed
by scientific irrigation over tho sur
face of municipal farms having an
aggregate extent of more than 10000
acres or upward of thirty square miles.
Additional land has been bought from
time to time. 1t is interesting to note
that n city the municipal limits OF
which include only twenty-five square
miles has acquired an outside domin-
ion of thirty square miles as a place
for the discharge OF its liquid waste.
The Berlin sewage farms were tracts
of rather poor and sandy soil: but
land is not very cheap in the vicinity
of so great city, and the purchase
money reached about 100000 marks.
An additional 100000 marks has
been spent prior to 1893 in laying out
the farms, trenching and tilling them
for irrigation purposes. and equipping
them with the necessary buildings and
improvements. At that time there
had been expended upon the radical
system In Berlin and the discharging
tunnels about G5OOO,0O0 marks. max
ing total investment of nearly 100.-
100000. With the further outlay to
be made in completion of the system
as whole. the new Berlin sewage
works. including the farms and their
improvements. may perhaps be said
TO constitute 100000. 900 marks $780,
0O0,000) plant. From an American
point of view. 1t is novel to consider
a city's drainage works as a self-sus-
tanning or productive enterprise. like
its waterworks and its gas works; but
it is in that light that Berlin regards
it. Before the new system was in
troduced. the citizen had to pay for
its removal Of night soil. etc. The
city now charges moderate sewage
rate against all the property that the
system serves The parts OF the
farms that have been brought under
closest cultivation are already very
profitable. although the net income
from the entire thirty square miles
does not yet pay the full interest on
the investment. for purchase and i'm
provement. OF 30.00O.00O marks The
fertilizing value of the sewage is SO
great, and the administration of the
farms is so superb that within very
few years the investment will have
become enormously productive. On
each OF the farms are nurseries of
young fruit trees. and considerable
areas of orchard yield fruitage. Pro-
digious crops of vegetables are grown.
and the yield per acre of cereals and
grass is similarly remarkable. Within
a reasonable period the sewage farms
will have earned profits enough to pay
back all that was Invested in them.
and eventually they will be n source
of surplus income that will materislly
lessen the load OF municipal taxation.
Meanwhile from the sanitary point Of
view the system is an unqualified sue

Russia has long prided herself on
having the first women physicians.
The Chautauquan refers to the career
OF Nadezhda Susloff, one of the earliest
and best women doctors, as particular
ly interesting. Born a serf, and freed,
with her parents at the emancipation
in 1861, she and her brothers and sis
ters received the best possible educa-
ton at home and abroad, for her par
ents were both extremely intelligent
and her father acquired wealth after
gaining his freedom. Everywhere in
Russia and in the continental schools
Nadezhda was brilliantly successful.
For thirty years there has been no
manner OF doubt as to the sympathy of
the public and of the medical world
with the idea of thorough medical in
struction for women. Men started the
movement. In 1870 one professor and
two other men undertook to establish
courses for instructing women. In ten
years there were $50 women students
