NOW The PORCELAIN HOUSE.
New Invention May Make It Build
Ing Observation-Disclosures.

rhe use of porcelain has long been
known In China, but Is now likely to
make its appearance in western coun.
tries. and we are assured that the por
celain house Is one of the possibilities
of the near future. It Is made prac-
ticable by the invention of method of
making large sheets of porcelain about
an inch thick, which has the strength
without the bulk of an ordinary brick
built wall. Among It's advantages Is
rapidity in building. With sheets of
porcelain a good sized house can be
constructed In few days. 1t is damp
proof, too. and is, of course. kept clean
! at the cost of very little labor. Col.
ored glaZes take the place of wall.
paper, and pictures can be painted in
stead of being hung on the walls
Again, 1t is easily portable. A porce
lain house can be taken down when
the owner desires to move and re
| erected on another site. When IL
comes. these advantages. combined
with its cheapness. are bound to make
1t popular Standard.

The American people as yet do not
half comprehend this magnificent jour
ney made by Lewis and Clark from st.
Louis to the mouth of the Columbia and
back. Zenephone's retreat with his ten
thousand has wrung the world for
more than twenty centuries. but 1t does
not compare with the journey Of Lewis
and Clark. A little band of men, with |
one Indian woman. without guides and
totally unacqhainted with the topog |
raphy of the country before them,
which had no inhabitants but savages
started out to explore and cross conti
nent. It waa known that one great
trailless mountain range at least was
to be crossed and that the journey be
fore them In sn air line covered more
than 1000 miles or quite 600 miles more
than the trail that zenephone blazed in
western Asia Zenephone's band was
made up Of 10000 picked Grecian sol.
fiers; that of Lewis and Clark of thirty
men all told and one Indian woman.
This woman. Sacajawea, proved to be
the salvation of the company; without
her they would have all been lost in the
mountains and starved. In the future,
when frontier life will have become but
memory in this republic, some writ
er will find in the part that Sacajawea
took in that expedition theme for
story or poem more thrilling than
that of Zenobia. She was Shoshone
squaw, but six years before the expedi-
ton she had been stolen and Lewis and
Clark found her the wife OF half cook
and half guide on the Missouri some
where above where Omaha now Is. She
became a guide to the party when her
old home was reached and mediator
between the party and the wild tribes
that peopled what is now Montana.
The party was often on the verge OF
starvation; they were often reduced tc
dog and horse meat for food; they
oamped on and descended trailless
mountains, forded rivers, stood off sav
ages; when they reached the valley o.
the Columbia west Of the Cascades, they
were caught in a three days awfu
storm; they passed the winter neal
where Astoria now is. and the next veal
made their way back.
No other so splendid feat of explor

duty has ever been displayed. And tn
