but it must be lower than the cellar
bottom and give a good opportunity
for any water that may accumulate to
get away easily. If the ground is very
damp have another course of tile about
two feet above or half way towards
the surface.
The use of cement mortar is a great
preventive against dampness in the
cellar and the way the cellar floor is
made has a great deal to do with it.
You can make a cement bottom that
is porous, or you can make it water
tight just by the difference in the way
the materials are mixed. 1t some
times is desirable to have the back
end of the cellar dry and the front
part of the cellar somewhat moist for
fruit and vegetables. but this depends
upon what use you wish to make of
the cellar.
Great changes have come about in
building small houses within a few
years. Until recently the idea of hot
and cold water and a bathroom in a
house of this size was almost unheard
of. In order to enjoy what are ordi-
narily called modern conveniences it
was necessary to occupy a large house.
but bathrooms, hot water in the
kitchen, gas and electric lighting are
growing more common all the time
and they are being installed in small
er houses every year. Because it is
necessary or because a person prefers
a small house it is no longer necessary
that they should do without the com
forts of civilization. With the in
crease of small houses fitted with such
Injuries the health of the people has
improved.

illness is a good thing for more reasons
than one. Cleanliness as long aeo

There is a good deal in the shape of
the cellar. A good many cellars are
almost useless except to keep the
house up away from the ground, to
keep it dry and assist some in keeping
the lower floors warm. Some cellars
are too dark and musty to be desira BILE

lance. Churchill served here two
years and then was SO fortunate as
to secure a change of garrison to
place where there was not so much
thankless fighting, but the English
government, reluctant as ever to give
up a corner of land that has once
been painted red, hung on to the we'd
ding present of the luckless queen for
a generation. On one occasion the
earl of Teyiott, the British governor,
with most of his officers and a large
portion of the garrison, was surprised
by the vigilant MoorS, and but few
escaped with their lives After 20
years of constant warfare, harassed
day and night by tfeless and trucu-
lent enemy, the keepers of John
Bulls treasury counted up the cost,
and shortly after the figures were
known Tangier was abandoned, and
so the second attempt of the conquest
of Morocco failed.
Spain Had Enough.
In 1859 the Spaniards. under O'Don-
nell, invaded Morocco, bent upon OBJ
tanning satisfaction for undoubted in
juries at the hands of lawless Moors,
and perhaps with thoughts of perma-
nent conquest if all went well. As a
matter of fact, nothing went well.
From 10000 to $4,000 men were en-
gagged for two years, with heavy casu-
alties, and even greater losses from
sickness. At the end of the second
campaign, the Sancho Panza in Cas-
lillian politics got the upper hand of
the Don Quixote, proclaimed honor
satisfied, the terms offered by the
Moors all that could be desired, and
retired in blaze OF false glory, out
of which O'Donnen secured a duke

the real results were none.

Typical of this same Sultan Mulai
Hassan's attitude toward what is
called progress and improvement in
the western world is an anecdote, the

some dangerous rocks in the harbor
of Rabat, and the owners of the coast
ing steamers engaged in the Morocco
trade were anxious, for obvious rea-
sons, to have them removed Having
failed to interest the local governor in
the matter, the steamship men got to-
gether and sent an envoy to Fee, who
requested that the companies con-
cerned might be allowed to remove
these dangers to commerce at their
own expense.

Certainly not was the sultan's
immediate answer, the rocks were
put there by God for some good pur-
pose, let no man dare to remove
them
What the sultan doubtless thought
was that foreign men-of-war could get
into the Atlantic ports of his empire
quite easily enough, and at all events
he did not wish to appear in the eyes
of his sullen people as facilitating the

but more depends on the manner in
which it is built and the care it re
ceives afterwards. All cellars should
be dry, that is there should be no per-

accumulation of mold. At the same
time a cellar should not be dusty dry

Ten years ago these dashing horse
men, whose gorgeous costumes and be-
jeweled weapons made them most
beautiful if somewhat barbaric OBJ
jects to behold, were the lords of the
plains and the marshes which lie be-
tween the western Soudan and the
port owns of southwest Morocco. They
were the masters of transportation in
this part of the world, and had to be
reckoned with If you cared to take
caravan flight in ostrich feathers, gold
dust, slaves, or salt, they would pro-
tect you or pillage you, whichever was
the most profitable.
Sid Boubkehr, who was and is the
most prominent man in this part of
the world, used to rebate and cut rates
just like all the other masters of
transportation, and just like you and

ton at his price or he would pillage
it to secure the just tolls which were
his, as he never doubted, by the divine
right of might. Boubkehr and his
colleagues and rivals got all they
could get out of the job without dis
turbing business or destroying val

it not for the recent opening up of
the Western Soudan by the French,
who have diverted to their own in

wishing to be unduly alarmist about
the situation of the besieged garri-
sons in Mogador and Casablanca it is
clear that their assailants are not
only fanatics, but hungry fanatics
who have been quietly put out of a
most profitable and gentlemanly bust
