the mixing of the component parts
being undertaken after long study of
the subject. Mr.. Hoag finished the
inside of the house first. This being
done, he lathed the whole outside with
wire screen stuff, such as is used for
fencing chicken pens. This was firmly
fastened. The studding was close, and
when the wire was on it gave a rigid
surface on sides, ends and the slopes
Of the roof
Over this layer Of wire he spread a
first coat of cement. 1t was well
pressed on. so that it oozed through
the meshes of the wire for a clinch-
ing hold. When this first coating was
thoroughly set another and heavier
one was spread over the surface.
Shingle effects were fashioned on the
gables, and on the roof the cement
was shaped and lined, to give an ap-
pearance of stating. Then over the
whole outside was laid a finishing
veneer of cement paint.
The house is as tight as a bottle. It
is impervious to heat or cold, or leak
Of rain; and, as its foundation Is a.
solid ledge, it can defy the frost to
wrestle with it. Mr.. Hoag says the
cost Of building was about the same
as wooden construction would have
been, but he says there is no great
number of repairs.

Although the United States Govern
ment supports but one national mill
tary academy 1t encourages military
training in number of other schools
and colleges by detailing to these insti-
tutions officers Of the army and navy.
These subsidiary military schools are
Of three kinds. There is, first, the state
school which receives financial aid
from the state government and Is re-
garded as a part of its military estab-
lishment A notable example of this
class of schools Is the Virginia Mill
tary Institute, famous as the West
Point of the Confederacy, and now en-
joying the distinction of having more
of it's graduates in the United States
Army than any other school or college.
The second class comprises the agri-
cultural and mechanical colleges which
have received donations of land from
the government and which under the
terms Of these grants are required to
give instruction in tactics. Private
military schools may be considered as

which distinguished the sire. There
are some notable exceptions, as for
instance the younger Pitt, and John
Quincy Adams. But as rule we shall
find, both as a matter Of history and
personal observation, that the COM
mon opinion Is correct. A writer in
current magazine attempts to &C
count for this fact by assuming that
the son usually inherits his intellect
ual traits from his mother, although
in physique he is apt to take after his
father The writer cites a lot Of in
stances to show that in the line of
royalty it Is quite common to see the
to his successors for many genera
tions. This is because that In royal
marriages the bride Of the heir ap-
parent is carefully selected from
among the great families, royal or
other Hence the high strain Of blood
is maintained in the descent But
among the mass of the people, from
which the world usually gets its great
geniuses, literary, financial, scientific
or professional, marriages are made
hap-hazard. A great man Is often
attracted by a woman far inferior to
him Intellectually. In the vast ma
jority of cases no attention Is paid to
mating with a view to transmitting
great qualities. A compensation of
these hap-hazard marriages is that a
very ordinary man sometimes be-
comes the father of very great one.
This view is fanciful to some extent.
1t cannot be based upon any accurate
statistics. But it gives abundant food
for thought. 1t may be used as an
argument for the higher education and
culture of women. 1t gives a hint Of
the advisability of arranging mar
riages with prudence and forethought
1t may be admitted that love in mar
riage is an essential, but it will do no
harm to season 1t with judgment and
good advice.

little. Castelnau, in the middle of the
last century, beheld similar specta

well instructed in the care and hand

the same results are obtained from the

That the steel car is of great value
as a protection to passengers in the

recent clash of two trains in the
Hudson TUNNEL, New York City. There
was no telescoping, as would prob

resulted from the passengers being

Milicent and Cousin Linda were
having their first talk when a voice
from the stairs interrupted them.
"Milly, DEAR" it called, II want the
arnica for Sannas wrist, and you've
changed everything round so on the
medicine shelves l can't find it,"
There's an indexed list hanging
right on the cupboard door," Milicent
called back, proudly. Just look in

shelf and row."
Your writing Is so scrawly l can't
seem to, Milly. Pm afraid you'll have
to come" persisted the voice, plain
lively.
When Milicent returned the room
was empty, but she heard talking in
the library beyond. Cousin Linda was
there, perched on a stepladder, at the
foot of which stood the professor, hair
rumpled, broWs drawn in an anxious
quicker, blinking upward.
-Four small fat volumes In brown

dear. I'm really rather lost since

from the threshold. The professor
started guiltily.

made a pounce. Got him! All, Pepys,

Not so bad as that said Linda.
Its certainly worth while to have the
library catalogued. But the medicine
cupboard, and the linen closet. and in
ventorying the china-perhaps that's
a little-well, extreme! You'll have to
learn to balance method and theory
against habit and custom. When
you've been at home two years, like
me, instead of two little months, it
will be easy"
II do like things done the best way!"
said Milicent, with a sigh.
Yes; but the same best way isn't
