dominant ideas of the age of conquest
We have in the United States two exam
pies of Spanish colonial architecture, although
they bear no comparison to those OF Mexico
in size or wealth of decoration. The carrier
is that at St. Augustine, Fla, founded in 1852
It was partially destroyed by fire in 1887, but
has been carefully restored so to preserve
the original style, and its ancient bells rehung
The second is that of New Orleans, which,
while it occupies the site Of two previous
French edifices, destroyed by hurricane
In 1928, the other by fire in 1788 was rebuilt
in 1894 at the entire charge of a Spanish noble
man resident in the city while the colony was
under the dominion of Charles Nv. OF spain

Folding Ironed Clothes.

In folding clothes for ironing each
article should always be folded length
wise and the reason they should be
SO folded is because the thread that
runs in that direction is always strong
est. These threads go around the
loom, while the wool, which goes to
and fro over and under the long
threads, is not so strong, so that iron
ing crosswise will not only draw the
article out Of shape, but will cause It
to wear more quickly. This is espe.
cially true of table and bed linens.

Would Surely Wear A Wig

stitute the lost growth with an appro-
pirate wig. I argued that it was not
only the correct thing to wear false
teeth, when necessary, but foolish not
to do so, and by the same token false
hair was as correct, and that the
finger of scorn and ridicule should not
be pointed at one more than another.

ished of mixed French Gothic and Roman
esque style. The French cathedral at St.
Pierre, Martinique, was destroyed by the erup-
tion of Mount Pelee and the bishops seat was
removed to Fort de France. Owing to the fact
that the government Of Cuba rested for nearly
40 years at Santiago from 151S-15s2, it hap
pens that this town boasts a cathedral which
antedates that of Havana, but it is not remark
able as compared with many of the Spanish
colonial edifices. The cathedral at Havana,

to inspire enthusiasm from the artistic stand

Postal Savings Banks.

Despite the petty intrigue and dal
lance of Washington officials who
have to do with the matter, postal say.
ings banks are soon to have trial in
every state and territory in the union
One such bank is to be established in
each state and territory and the plan
given a thorough try-out before the
system becomes general. DEBORAH, a
city of something over 5000 people,
has been selected as the place for
the Iowa experiment and as soon as
the initial plans are complete the
bank will be inaugurated.
Considerable dispute has arisen as
to the system of conducting the pos
tai savings bank plan, but the follow
ing is/said to have the endorsement OF
Postmaster General Hitchcock and it,
with possibly slight notifications, will
be the one used initially: The bank
will operate in conjunction with the
regular postoffice and sums in vary
ing amounts may be deposited, but
the .depositor will be limited to the
sum of 800 in any month and to $500
in a year; it being the intention of
the government to in no wise inter-
fere with the regularly established
banks doing business in town, and
only the small depositors will be en-
couraged. The sums so deposited will
draw interest at the rate of two per
cent and will in the aggregate be
loaned to local banks at not less than
"a per cent. Either certificates of de-
post CT the regular bank book will
be used, that detail not having yet
been decided. There are at this time
in the United States $4,000 postot1ices,
1900 of which are first and second
class. 1t is expected that at least 49,
900 out of the entire total will have
savings banks when the plan is in full
operation.-Odebolt Chronicle.
