wlfe,s Place In Japan.

One of the proverbial Japanese ex pressions characterizing the island empire is that it is the land where the day would not dawn without the tender sex" This is a plain admis- sion of woman's mighty influence. and refers indirectly to a mythological story of the sun goddess from whom the imperial family is supposed to have sprung. In Japan in early times the wife seems to have had her full share of the respect of the husband. Instead of taking her to wife" the earliest Japanese word for marriage means "the union of the man and woman" The woman, after her mar riage, continued to live with her par ents and her husband visited her daily. AS soon as his means permit ted he built a new house and the wife came to live in it with him. Even to this day the word shinzo, newly built" means wife; that is. the woman who occupies the domicilc, especially erected for her comfort. In the civil ceremony of marriage. in which the slipping of rice wine is the prominent feature, the bride drinks first, the cur then being passed to the bridegroom Oriental Review.

tama, the last Buddha. All. equally with the huge reclining Buddha. form a part of the religious rites of the Buddhists. For the essence of Bud dhism consists in the struggle to be- come like Buddha, to attain his per lection by obedience to his precepts- To do this it Is necessary always to have Buddha in mind. and it is for this reason that every city in the Bud dhist world Is literally crowded with his images. Buddha himself is not
 deified; potentially every Buddhist may attain his perfection, but only by the eternal imitation of his practice

sand-supported Pier.

of building part of the immense struc- ture on sand, for the test load of sos tons of the concrete pier exceeded by 66 per cent the maximum load that will ever be put on this particular support, even under the most extreme conditions of wind pressure, and the pier used for the test was purposely chosen as being the weakest link in the chain of piers comprising the foundations of the building
 This 4O-story structure, the latest of New Yorks mammoth skyscrapers, is the municipal building being erected at the Manhattan terminus of the Brooklyn bridge. The engineers have calculated that a total vertical load of 65.OOO tons will have to be sup ported by the foundations under the most extreme conditions of loading and wind pressure, force that would absolutely crush a solid castiron co[ umn of about ten feet in diameter
 Owing to the fact that quicksand underlies the site of the building, some extraordinary engineering problems had to be solved in it's construction, and these were rendered still more diff 6cult inasmuch as only 6S of the 1O6 concrete piers could be sunk by the pneumatic caisson process to reach the solid rock. The others had to bear on sand and this was the reason for making a direct bearing test on the most unfavorably situated of the remaining 3S piers, to make sure that they would support and transmit through the sand to the underlying rock the load of six tons per square foot they have to bear. The rock-sup ported piers carry 15 tons per square foot
 The test was extended over pc riod of 24 days, the load being added gradually for IT days and left in DO eition for a week before being re moved. The pier tested is 10 feet inches in diameter and 34 feet inches deep. A grillage of two tierl of 24-inch I-beams was laid over { bed of 3-fnch plank placed on top O the pier, so as to form a cross meas uring 15 feet by 20 feet in extrem' dimensions On this were placed thu loading blocks of cast iron, weighinl about 2, 3,5OO pounds each.
