LARGEST BUILDING STONE

The walls of the Acropolis at Baal-
bek are truly called Cyclopean. The
famous Trilithon, the largest stones
ever used in building, meas4re respec-
lively 65 GA and 6S feet in length, each
block weighing 750 tons. How these
huge masses were accurately placed in
position 20 feet above the ground is
problem which modern science, with all
it's appliances, leaves yet unsolved.
Above them are Arab fortihcations.
The quarries whence these gigantic
materials were obtained are among the
most interesting features of Baalbek
Here may still be seen the method of
work of the ancient quarrymen, stones
vertically hewn lying almost ready to
the hand of the builder. One of these
stones, to which the Arabs give the
name Hajar-el-Houbla, measures SO
feet in length and weighs 915 tons.
M. de Sauicy calculates it would take
the united efforts of 10000 men to put
this huge block in motion. This quarry
is now used as metropolis by the in
habitants of Baalbek.-Sunday at Home

in imitation of Christ. Her chief am
bition seems to be to battle for human
ity against sin and disease, and to
continue without reproach before God

Mrs. Mary A. Baker, highly res
pected citizen of Boston, who was well
known on account of her missionary
labors, who had known Mrs. Eddy
from early girlhood, in writing to a
friend said: First 1 will say that
am not a Christian Scientist, but am
of the orthodox faith, and for more
than half a century have been a men,
ber of the Park Street Congregational
church in Boston. Mrs. Eddy's charac-
ter Is above reproach. No libelous
words can touch 1t; no foe can assail
it. Hidden in God it shall shine and
reflect him, its brilliancy will be seen
long after she who labors ceases her
work for ultimate rest. Her large and
extensive work, with her unprecedent-
ed following, has called forth malig-
nant utterances so utterly false they
should not go unchallenged."
Almost unlimited testimony might
be produced to show the exalted stand
ing Of Mrs. Eddy and the efficiency of
her work, but it Is not required; she
is protected by his divine love and the
assassin's hand is powerless to do her
harm-the workings Of error will come
to naught.

THE "gANp" SHE MEANT

A gentlemanly merchant travelling in
railway carriage met a lady, and
politely rendered her such assistance
that she reciprocated by permitting
him to talk to her. He became quite
friendly, and desired to know where
she lived and who she was.
"Oh," she replied, ''I'm only an ordi-
nary little woman, but my friends per-
sist in trying to make me somebody"
"Ah," was the gallant answer, II am
sure they act quite wisely and in good
taste"
"You flatter me, sir, and yet have
no doubt a band will meet me at the
station when 1 arrive at Windsor"
"Indeed!" he replied, in open-eyed as
tonishment
Eyes; and the same band always
meets me. Isn't that lattering?"

what band II is that is always so hon
ored?"

for a minute, and then went into the
next carriage and bumped his head

HOW coLoRs AFFECT US

The waves of each color excite vi
bration in their own set Of cones in
the retina. Let us assume that each
of the primary colors has it's own set
of cones. Various theories are held.
one being that only red, green and
violet cones exist, the other colors be-
ing the product of mixtures of these
three. Let us return to our pincushion
simile, and to the fact that of the
1000, 900 cones, 500, 900 are devoted to
green, 100000 to red, 100000 to violet,
100000 to blue, 100000 to orange and
100000 to yellow. Then there are
13O, 100000 rods which see white, or
luminosity, the portion of light not
absorbed by a color, but reflected. Let
us assume that in an eye, in its MAX
ing, 100000 cones which see green are
left out. That eye would be color
blind to green. But it would still have
it's rods which would see the white
light that is reflected as luminosity
from all green objects, and would see
this luminosity as so much gray. A
totally color-blind eye would see only
shades of gray from almost pure white
to pure black.
This is to some extent the way a
photograph shows a landscape, and the
gradations of light and shade are the
degree of surface reflection of each
color Independent of it's color waves.
Yellow is very luminous, and shows
comparatively white in the photo
graph. Violet is very slightly lumi-
nous, and appears very dark in the
photograph. The eye that is color
blind in green, if it beheld a yellow
green, would see the yellow with the
admixture of gray represented in the
luminosity of the green, making q
dirty yellow. Green would be shown in
photograph by gray that is about
halfway between black and white

THAT EASTER BONNET

The Easter bonnet has been the joke
and the bane of masculine kind for
generations out of mind. Mere man
delights in poking fun at it; in COM
planning peevishly of its cost; of maxi
ing sarcastic remarks about his wifes
church-going at this particular season
for the alleged reason that she wants
to "show it off," and of sneeringly
asking why a contraption of a few
feathers, a fake rose and some braided
wire must cost half a century of bills
His mind utterly fails to grasp the
inner meaning of this confection, the
purpose of its creation, or it's signif,
cance. 1t is time that word were
said in defense of the Easter bonnet
and here it shall be uttered.
All nature, at the coming Of spring
dons its gayest attire. The very
ground itself carpets it's brown ugli,

FIRE AND REDWOOD

We have received an Interesting
monograph, entitled Redwood in the
San Francisco Fire" in which the
claim is urged that this class of lumber
is practically indestructible. The fine
illustrations it contains would carry
conviction with more certainty If they
were accompanied by information
which would satisfactorily establish
that the houses which failed to survive
the confagration were not largely
built of that material. Redwood is
doubtless a slow burning wood, but on
the 18th and 10Th of April last even
stone and iron seemed to take on in
fiammable qualities. - San Francisco

from year to year, indeed, but not
freshening In the springtime, as does
all else. Conscious Of this deficiency
for Of course, reasoning from the
analogy Of nature, that's what It is
she has gone to work and done her
best to supplement the oversight. De-
MED her rights, she has taken the
liberty Of enforcing them. Selecting
Easter as the typical spring festival
for as such It vastly preceded the
Christian appropriation of itself-she
has originated the idea Of artifcially
so adorning her beauteous self that
Dame Nature pales into Jealous inslg-
nificance beside her gorgeosity She
has painted the lily; she has adorned
the rose; she has out-Solomoned Solo
mon, and the Queen of Sheba would
in comparison look like a washer
woman.
And the bonnet? As the supreme
and crowning achievement, it stands
alone. Woman, of all earth's creatures
feminine and alternative, is the only
one who crowns her caput with a con-
trivance designed to hide its own
greatest beauty-her wondrous hair.
And so doing, she naturally must ex-
ceed anything in nature to displace
the crown of glory Nature gives her.
Hence, in a word, the Easter bonnet,
in all its weird chromatic and kaleido-
scopic magnificence. Hence the blue
roses, the green carnations, the purple
daisies and the sky blue leaves. Hence
the accumulation of fruit and vegeta-
bles, hens feathers and parrots beaks,
which in one fearful nightmare are
assembled.
Hence, the Easter bonnet!
And, in view of all this, where Is
the man who would dare deny that
it serves it's purpose, startling the
animal, vegetable and mineral king
doms, as we'll as making Mrs. Nature
sit up and gaze in we'll justified Won
der? The Easter bonnet is a work Of
art-truly, art, for nature would none

Imagination feminine, and as such,
man, poor fool, should doff his stove
pipe to it and bow in humble rever-
