Nothing Like Glasgow.

While it has been argued in elias
gov, Scotland, that the cheap trolley
service initiates against the city itself,
because the people flock to the country
to live and thus increase the per capita
tax In the city, conditions do not seem
to be the same in MINNEAPOLIS: partly
because the rates are rather high. The
real estate business created by the sale
of country properties for villas will
pass thru the hands Of Minneapolis real
estate men, local architects and con-
tractors will erect the buildings, sup
plies will be bought in Minneapolis and
the traffic will be handled by a Min

Bronze and Glass Knobs.

The most satisfactory material for
door-knobs is bronze in what is called
." statuary finish.''' This is dark
brown which never changes except
where projecting portions are polished
by the hands. The bright bronze is
pretty when new, but soon discolors
unevenly; and brass knobs, altho fash
ionable, require frequent rubbing to
keep them presentable. Glass knobs are
clean and strong and might with ad-
vantage be produced in q much greater
variety Of shapes and colors than can
be found at present; but as glass must
be set in metal, which will require
occasional attention, there is no saving
of trouble in using them. Wooden
knobs, which were once very fashion
able and are still in use, have the dis
advantage that the varnish with which
they are coated becomes sticky and
black with use, but they can be cleaned
and revarnished in case Of need.
