COATS FOR YOUNG TOTS

White Cloths That Resemble Caracul

enc of these coats will have a shaw
collar of satin, or collars and cuffs
OF the material will have a bias satin

haired fur look more appropriate
than these trimmings, and they give
the garment the arctic look needed
for midwinter.
If these imitation fur materials are
not used for the best coat it Is OF
plain cloth, corduroy or velvet. The
mottled tweeds, beaver cloths and
checked and striped cheviots are re-
served for the practical garment, and
though the model used may be the

ones a bit Of velvet on the collar and
cuffs is the only trimming seen. The
preference, in fact, is for great plain

Mr. William A. Radtord will answer
questions and give advice FREE OF
COST on all subjects pertaining to the
subject of building for the readers of
this paper. On account Of his wide expe
rience as Editor, Author and Manufac
turer, he Is, without doubt, the highest
authority on all these subjects. Address
all inquiries to William A. Radford No.

In building a house Of concrete, no
matter what the form of the material
may be, the concrete should be strong
and sound. 1t should be wet, far too
wet to be delivered from it's mold for
considerable periods Of time. The
best artificial stone made in this
country is that made by the wet proc
ess, simply because plenty Of water
is necessary in the setting Of the &C.
ment. The coming year will witness
a great boom in cement-house build
ing and the principles that underlie
the use Of this material are easy for
the public to understand
But there are certain limitations in
which the purse of the intending
builder is involved. Solid wall con-
struction is very limited in it's appli-
cation to dwelling house construction.
While we have solved the problem of
the factory and mill building in re-
Enforced concrete the same may not
be said for dwelling houses Of all
classes. In the mill and factory
structure we have a relatively large
amount of concrete as compared with
the lumber and labor involved in the
making of the forms, whereas, in the
dwelling house, with the cut-up sur
faces and irregular openings, the
ratio of the cost of forms to the con-
crete is out Of all proportion, and
places concrete practically out Of the

.tural possibilities, but when we'll
built will not be found to be cheaper
than a rough brick wall, for the frame
must be sheathed, papered, metal
furred and lathed and covered with
scratch coat of mortar before 1t is in
condition to receive the stucco. This
will be found to approximate closely
the cost of brick work. But then it
should be considered that the stucco
house, although the cost may be the
same as that Of rough brick wall
is much more desirable because of it's
modern appearance and attractive
ness. Much has been said about the
faults of stucco work but like many
another failule In the use of concrete,
they are traceable to the ignorance
of the user rather than to the fault
of the material. Stucco has been
much abused but it will give the best
of satisfaction If it is properly made
and applied. There are plenty of ex-
samples of this style Of house the
country over which have withstood
the test of years and their appear
ance and durability have been proved
to the satisfaction Of the owners. We
are prone to Judge things In class

NOVEL MUSEUM IN ENGLAND
The Adult as Well as the Child Is
Amused at the Wonderful In
genuIty Displayed.

Beneath the shadow Of the ruined
castle at Bramber, England, there is
a novel and interesting museum. The
exhibits are principally examples Of
the art of the taxidermist, says the
Strand: but the subjects are treated
in such a humorous manner as to rem
der the museum unique in England.
From a childs point of view it Is a
veritable Wonderland, reminiscent Of
the strange sights seen by Alice when
she made her journey into that delec-
table country. The adult is no less
amused and agreeably surprised at the
wonderful ingenuity there displayed.
The idea of thus combining the art
of the taxidermist with that Of the
humorist was generated in the brain
of w. Potter In 1861 Mr.. Potter set
to work to construct his first set piece,
illustrating the Death and Burial Of
Cock Robin" This work was done in
Mr.. Potter's spare time and was not
completed until seven years had
elapsed.
The whole of the incidents in the
story are graphically portrayed, and as
evidencing the patience and persever-
ance exercised by Mr.. Potter 1t may be
stated that no fewer than 100 spect-
mems of British birds are included In
the setting In addition to the birds
which figure in the story. there are
the cuckoo, nightingale. goldfnch.
hawkfinch, bramble finch, wryneck,
etc.
Much ingenuity is displayed in the
arrangement of the fish with his
dish," the fly with his little eye." the
owl, the bull, rendered in miniature,
the rock. and the mourning birds all

GIVES MILLIONS TO END WAR

The hundreds of millions of Andrew
Carnegie, which he has declared he
will give away before he dies, will be-
come, it is believed, perpetual power
for the good of mankind, fund con-

trustees, the income from which is to
be used through the centuries to aid
human beings in ending war and COM

This belief is based on the broad
terms of a deed by which Mr.. Carne-

WHITE NOW CHIEF JUSTICE

Edward Douglas White, whom Presi-
dent Taft has appointed chief justice
of the United States Supreme court,
Is a native of Louisiana
He was born in the parish Of La
fourche, La, in November, 1845. In
his early youth he attended the school
at Mount st. Mary's, near Emmits-
burg, Md; later he entered the Jesuit
college in New Orleans, and finally he
went to Georgetown college of Wash
ington, D. G. Justice White served in
the Confederate army during the civil
war and practised law among the
people of Louisiana.
In 1891 Mr. White became national
figure. A senatorial contest was waged
in Louisiana and Mr.. White entered
the race. He had managed the cam
paign of Governor Nichols for re-elec-
ton and had been prominent in the
reform element Of his state. He had
fought in favor of the anti-lottery
