Decay Of Building Stones.

The causes of decay in building
stones are various and depend on the
physical structure OF the stone. its
composition and the nature OF the
surrounding atmosphere. The most
destructive agent to which the stone
Is exposed is rain or a moist atmos-
phere, and also. in minor degree,
wind, frost and smoke. The air OF
large towns Is usually charged with
various deleterious acids: these acids
are dissolved by the rain, which pens-
trates the stone In a greater or less
degree with the constituents OF the
stone, causing IT TO decay. so that any
contrivance that will check the admlB-
sion OF water will be most likely to
succeed In arrestIng decay building

Mr.. Asquith's Wit.

At a meeting in Liverpool on one
occasion Mr.. Asquith began sem

took gulp OF water from a tumbler
beside him. The audience roared.
"Ah," said the Premier, that's a
trick learned OF Bob Lowe. II you

depend upon 1t some other fellow will
pop up TO cut you short, he said. q"
AS an example OF the Premier's wit.
the following might be recalled. One
Of the first law cases in which Mr..
Asquith came into prominence was
the famous trial Of Hawke vs. Dunn.
when the Anti-Gambling League did
their utmost to prohibit betting on
Kempton Park race course. Mr.. AS
quith appeared for the league, and
argued that the course was "a place
within the meaning Of the act" Dur

acceptable theories were put forward
as 70 what did not constitute a place.
