A beaver family usually consists OF
four or five, and comes into the world
with its eyes wide open, The young

years and then they are made to shift

measures about two feet in length,
with a tail some ten inches long which
he can use as a spade or a trowel as

noticeable q certain concentration of in

this possibly will become more marked
year by year.
The lightweight plants in existence
in 1903 are owned by seventy eight

A DREAM IN MARBLE.
MOST EXQUISITE BUILDING EVER
ERECTED BY MAN.
MausOleum of Tai Mahal In India
Monument of a Husbands Love
for His Wife-In 1t Art Reached
It's Perfection.

The most exquisite building ever
TAI Mahal which was constructed by
the great Mogul Emperor, Shah ia
han. at Agra, India. 1t marks a
great mans love for woman-Ar-
jlLiand Banu Begun, his wife. Shan
Janan was a Mohammedan despot who
led a magnificent life, and had other
wives but in his eyes the peer of her
sex was Arjamand. When she died he
declared he would rear q her memory
a mauSolenm so perfect that it would
make men marvel for all time. And
this he accomplished. More poetry and
pose have been written about the Tai,
with more illusions to it as symbol
Of love, than of any other creation
marking human affecticn-and the
secret probably lies in the fact that all
the world loves a lover, says a writer
i the Booklovers Magazine.
Shah Jahan ruled from 162S to 1G5S
and had been on the throne only two
years when death took from him his
adored Arjamand. Then came the re-
so.ve to erect to her memory Il monu-
ment that might measure his love and
grief All the best architects, artists
AMI skilled workmen of India, Persia
and Arabia were summoned to Shah
Jqian's court and the resources of his
empire placed at their disposal. The
Tai, consequently, was not the creation
Of single master mind, but the con-
summation Of great art epoch. It's
