Cement Age describes concrete
bungalow at Portland, Me-, in which
the exterior of the house is of COP
crete panels. The concrete panels are
but one inch in thickness, and besides
being remarkably light, are strong
enough to bear an immense weight. The
panels are REINFORCED with strips Of
steel wire, and in the tests applied 10
them they withstood the strain of three
heavy men jumping up and down upon
them and showed no sign Of injury.
They are ornamented ON the outside
with raised figures, scroll work, etc,
from steel ceiling designs. The panels
were modelled in wooden frames on a
base consisting of strip Of steel cell
ing, by means Of which the decorative
design was transferred to the cement,
giving the panels an attractive appear
ance. The wooden frames were made
Of three-inch stuff and the exterior OF
the concrete panel comes flush with
the wood, while the recess in the side
which forms the interior affords two
inches of air space over the entire
length and width OF the panel. the ce

Cheerful Evening Reveries for Tired

JUST TO REMEMBER BY.

JUST TO REMEMBER BY.
Each heart has its hoard of treasures,
Safe hid from the curious eye,
Its tokens of bygone hours,
Just to remember by.
A rose from the old home garden,
A ring that the loved used to wear,
A mothers well-worn Bible,
4 tress of sunny hair.
A locket, bunch of violets,
Together the treasures lie,
Dear fragments of long-lost days,
Just to remember by.
There are yellow, time-stained letters,
All tied with ribbon blue,
A box of battered playthings,
A baby's tiny shoe.
How often in hush of twilight.
Each keepsake we view with sigh,
Then tenderly put them back in place,
Just 10 remember by!
The pretty girls whose faces are
their fortunes, soon go into the
hands OF receivers.
The reason why people succeed
who mind their own business is
because there is so little competi-
