BUILDINGS TELL THEIR STORY.
unwittinsIy They Reveal Secrets Of
the Hearts of Those Who Con-
structed Them.

The observer of buildings may read
with ease many secret of the build
er's heart, whether it be pride, ambi-
tion, hypocrisy or solid worth. The
apartment building that is built to
SELF is easier to read than some
structures which are the expression
of composite thought. There Is a
good exterior appearance, halls heavy
with style" with tiled floors. marble
walls, and massive chandeliers. But
inside the apartments, on every hand,
there are evidences of conscious
intention to skimp and neglect even
ordinary standards of good carpenter
work
How unwittingly does the builder
rear this projection of his inmost
character, Would 1t restrain him to
know that others regarded his work
as an open confession of the very
things he would prefer to hide? 1t
might not change his character, but 1t
could cause him to make such build
ing as he would like to be thought of
as corresponding to In character. II
this method OF interpreting builders
were to be popularized 1t might raise
the standards of the industry Our
contribution to this end would be
proverb, to pass current wherever
buildings are contemplated: "a build
ing is a confession In stone. Col
lier's.

STRANGE Growth OF Olive Trees.

Attention is seldom called to n re-
markable and curious characteristic OF
the olive tree. After many years OF
growth the different large branches
OF tho trees separate gradually from
the trunk until they are quite divided
from one another down into the root
These then slowly move apart. and In
some instances six or seven distinct
trees stand In tho area which before
surrounded the main tree, and they
will sometimes be az much as 20 feet
apart

RETAILERS SUFFERING.

New YORK, April 20-The inability
OF certain of the jobbers to resist the
temptation to take profits on supplies
purchased months ago is con demned
by the mill agents rs poor business
policy under existing circumstances
When the flour was held for merely
speculative purposes their criticism
does not hold. but when 1t was in
tended for active consuming require.
ments it is better proposition, they
say, to hold on to 1t, as 1t cannot be
replaced at the prices they are accept
ing. These jobbers. however, say
they are entitled to their own opin-
ions as to the future course of the
market, and are firm in the belief
that they had better take their profits
while they can, as they profess to
foresee disaster for the Fatten deal
and consequent tumbling Of values.
So far however. their arguments are
supported only by theories while sell
ers are backed by an actual condition,
namely steadily advancing market
for flour, with no one to say that the
crest of the wave has arrived.
The actual sufferer up to the pres
ent is the retail baker. For weeks,
the cost of his material has been
growing dearer, but he has not
/ cen able to advance the price Of
bread, chiefly because Of public
sentiment, but it is apparent that
tho has now reached tho point
where he must be brave enough to
advance his price or go ont of busi-
ness as his profits have been cut al.
most to tho vanishing point.

In the smoking car on southern

them and advanced to say to the

Johnson will weight 1g5 in the
ring which is lighter than he was in
his fight with Burns. Ketchel will Zip
the beam at 17J. Some friends ex-
press the opinion that Stanley IS car
rying.. too much weight but Willus
Britt declares kctchel was never in
better wind than now while he is
much stronger than in his last fight
with Papke.
Sam Fitzpatrick, who has closely
watched the champions training
said today: Jack was never in bet
ter condition than now, yet these peo-
pie who talk about q short fight are
mistaken. Johnson is naturally eau
tious and he won't take any chances
with such a powerful hitter as Ketch'

the fight go beyond fifteen rounds

johnson may win only on points

that Johnson will knock Ketchel ou'

WHAT BAD WEATHER COSTS.
A Rainy Day In West London Means
100000 Loss in Trade.

A Rainy Day In West London Means
100000 Loss in Trade.
The effect which the weather has on
trade in the great cities of the world Is
most noticeable as we'll as most remark
able. 1t has been estimated that the
shops in the west end of London lose
by a single rainy day 100000. Some
kinds of merchandise are especially SEN
sitive to the influence of the weather.
Mutton and pork, for instance, are
spoiled by very strong electric dis
charges, so that many a butcher will
lose $50 to $40 by thunder storm.
A real London fog is much more ex-
pensive by reason Of its impenetrable
darkness. For gas alone London ex-
ponds a day, when there is a fog, ST.
500 more than usual. The apothecaries
are pleased by such weather, for the
reason that it causes a number of dis
eases, so that their income is doubled.
The underground railways also have
their income increased by rain and fog.
Naturally, it is much more pleasant TO
be protected from the wind and wet
than to sit on the top of an omnibus
and get soaked through.
When 1t rains nearly all tradesmen
complain of bad business except the
cigar dealers; the latter, however, rub
their hands with delight. The desire
to make a bad day more endurable by
a good cigar increases the takings of
the cigar dealer 10 per cent The pub
lie housekeepers in the city have no
cause for complaint, every one knows
Whoever has anything to do in the
street supplies himself with umbrella
and raincOat, and these cost money. In
nearly all other shops the prOprietors
wait unavailingly for customers. Won
en- especially have no great desire to
shop in the rain.
Nature causes considerable expendi-
ture for man. She herself is a spend
thrift, as in a storm she wastes giant
forces. The storm that destroyed Cal
weston could have furnished the power
given by all the steam engines Of the
world for years. A single thunder
storm would suffice to drive all the
dynamos in existence, and the average
value Of a flash of lightning has been
calculated as about S1.20J.
