Fact, About suiIdins stor,.

Almost everybody knows the rule Of
the masons that stone used in build
ing should be so placed that 1t will lie
as 1t lay in Its natural bed when quar-
rled. But Francis w. Hoyt in the En-.
cheering News says that this familiar
rule Is not always to be depended upon
and needs in many cases to be supple.
mented with other precautions. There
are three planes of fracture known to
quarrymen. The rift is the direction
in which the stone splits most easily,
the grain that which is next easiest,
the head that which offers the greatest
resistance. In a paving block the two
sides represent the rift fracture, the
top and bottom the grain and the ends
the head But in a quarry the natural
bed Is sometimes considerably inclined
to the plane OF the rift; hence the i'm
perfection Of the ordinary rule for plac-
ing the stone in building.

Houses were made for shelter, not

They foster the family and make
progress possible, but we should not
abuse their protection. We have crawl
ed away into their still and comforta-
bic recesses, slept in their dry, clean
chambers, toasted ourselves over their
sheltered fires, read by their unaickcr

We have kept ourselves away from
the wind and the sun and the lashing
rain, from the feel Of the earth under

stars overhead until we no longer know
the keen and simple joys of being
alive, We have set UP barriers against

American fashion each grasps his own
hands, lifts them as high as his chin
and with sweeping motion throws
them down as low as possible. bend
