leave it until it has absorbed as much

Worth Of Gypsum Plaster.

Gypsum plaster is largely disDlaeiAg
lime mortar as wall finish. Not only
is it found to be more suitable and
durable, but its strength ard hardness,
and the fact that construction can be
completed more quickly when it is
used, have brought it into favor 1t
also has great value as a neutralizer
of alkali in soils. The belt Of country
extending from Iowa through Kansas
and Oklahoma and into Texas in
cludes the plants which produce a
large part OF the output of gypsum
west OF the Mississippi river. The
deposits in these states are practically
inexhaustible.

What a Famous CITY Lacks.

Athens, Greece, the only capital in
Europe which cannot be reached by
rail, is separated by several hundred
miles from the European main rail
way system, of which Brindisi, Sa-
lonika and Constantinople may be re-
garded as the three southern termini.
A projected line from Athens to Sa-
lonika will bridge the last gap in the
chain. When this is completed it will
be possible to run through carriages
from Calais to Athens and the Greek
capital will be brought within three
days of London. At present the quick.
est transit is five days. via Brindisi
and Paris, which involves a sea voy-
age almost as long as that between
Brindisi and EGYPT.

Then the King died. And with myrrh and

Washed with palm wine, swathed in linen

Rolled in naphtha gum, and under guard

Century fled to century: still he lay
Whole Gs when they hid him first away;
Sooth. the priest had nothing more to say:
He, it seemed the King, knew everything.
One day armies with the tramp of doom
Overthrow the huge blocks of the tomb:

No nervous girl need apply at a tele-

ton to the demands Of the switchboard
call for GOODNESS and poise.
The girl who has the telephone bee
buzzing within her bonnet seeks the gen
searching test for general htness-slght
and hearing, wideawakeness, department.
1t satisfactory, she is turned over for
training to the operating inspector. For
the first week she does nothing but at
tach her head-phone to an experienced
operators position and listen. 1t takes
that time to learn to distinguish the doz-
Ell and one confusing sounds that crowd
into her receiver. The next two weeks
she puts her observation in practice,
with an experienced operator always at
her elbow
The lot of the full-fedged telephone
girl is by no means an unenviable one.
Her work demands unfiagging attention.
but custom eases the strain. The great
telephone companies are in the forefront
of the modern movement for improved
working conditions. Every girl is given
a half-hour intermission morning and aft
ernoon to lounge in the restroom and
read or gossip, as she will. For the rare
cases of nervous collapse hospital room
is provided, under matrOn's care. More
over, there is dining room, where q
very substantial lunch is furnished the
girls free except for slight change fol

The Ships Purser.

The lot of the purser is anything but
q happy one. From his title one would
think that he had only to lock after the
finance of the vessel, but in reality his
office, so conveniently and picstureSquely
situated at the top Of the grand staircase
(Which in boats of less magnificent pro-
portions would be simply termed the
''companion'), is really as busy bureau
as any in Capel court Or Wall street. 1t
is no doubt legitimate enough to expect
the purser to be quite au fait with the
monetary matters to explain to the Brit
Usher the difference between a doller and
a crown, or to the American that the
greenback, that useful but unsavory me-
dunn of exchange, is treated with scorn
and contUmely in Europe, but our Amer
lean friends are par excellence the in
terrogators of the world, and to them
the purser is simply Il walking encyclo-
paedia.
He is expected to tell them all about
the ship--that'S right enough-but they
want to know all about the passengers
as well-who they are, where they have
come from and where they are going,
how much they are worth and any little
tit-bit of news about their social life. He
is also asked about every hotel, beginning
at Liverpool and ending at Rome, the
best shops whereat to purchase different
articles, who will give the best discount
for cash, where the Questioners wife
can best be rugged up in European fash

his daughter might run across some i'm
pecunious scion of British nobility.-Har-
