Not a Cheap BujIdinu.

1t has been estimated that to re.
build the pyramid of Cheops under
modern conditions an expenditure of
800, 100000 would be necessary and
the labor of 10000 men for two years
required.
1t has been calculated that the work
really required the services of 100, 900
men for thirty years.
The pyramid occupies a space OF
twelve and th~ree-quarters acres, is 746
feet high and contains about 1885,
900 cubic yards of stone and granite.
The material alone represents an
item of 1000 900, while the labor
would increase this amount to $72,.
900, 600. TO this must be added 49,.
900, 900 for tools, transportation, and
similar items.
The pyramid is built on a solid rock
100 deep, and TO build a foundation of
this character would add TO the cost to
the extent of making the total OF
800, coo, 000.-Scientiic American.

Durability of Steel.

IT has been shown that nearly all
the failures of steel occur very early
in its history. If a plate or bar OF
mild steel lasts for a year in service,
ii may be trusted to last for many
years. The most injurious thing is
continued bending backward and for
ward, az in what is called the pant
ing of a boiler end. AS n authority
puts il, steel has a somewhat "tumul-
touOus youth" but lin middle age it
is trustworthy, and in old age beyond
~reproach." In regard to %corrosion
there is a difference of opinion. some
holding that steel corrodes more readi-
ly than iron.-Harper's Weekly.

THE TEA PENALTY.
"A Strong Mans Experience.

Writing from a busy railroad town
the wife of an employee OF one OF the
great roads says:
MY husband is q railroad man who
has been SO much benefited by the use
of Postum that he wishes me to ex-
press his thanks to you for the good
it has done him. His waking hours
are taken up with his work, and he
has no time to write himself.
"He has been a great tea drinker
all his life and has always liked IL
strong.
Tea has, of late years, acted on
him like morphine does upon most
people. At first it soothed him, but
only for an hour or so, then 1t began
to affect his nerves TO such an extent
that he could not sleep at night, and
he would go TO his work in the nor
ing wretched and miserable from the
loss of rest. This condition grew cor
stantly worse, until his friends per
suaded him, some four months ago, to
quit tea and use Postum.
AT first he used Postum only for
breakfast, but as he liked the taste OF
1t, and it somehow seemed to do him
good, he added it to his evening meal.
Then, as he grew better, he began to
drink 1t for his noon meal, and now
he will drink nothing else at table.
His condition is SO wonderfully i'm
proved that he could not be hired to
give up Postum and go back to tea
His nerves have become steady and
reliable once more, and his sleep is
easy. natural and refreshing.
He owes all this to Postum, for he
has taken no medicine and made no
other change in his diet.
His brother, who was very nervous
from coffeedrinking. was persuaded
by US to give up the coffee and use
Postum and he also has recovered his
health and strength" Name given by

HOUSE WITH NO STAIRS.
Pittsburgh Man Plans New Residence
Employing Some Very Unique
Features


The new residence which is being
built on the Clearview plant at Mount
Lebanon, Pittsburgh, for A. G. Smith
of Pittsburgh, has some features which
are unique and probably not embodied
in any other residence in this section.
The house is without stairways or
steps, the slope idea having been sub.
stituted. The grade of this slope is
about ten per cent. Entering from the
veranda to the large reception hall
ones attention is directly drawn to
the unique method employed of reach
ing the upper floor. In the living
room, which is probably 20X35 feet, a
large concrete fire place and mantel
is the principal feature, with a wide
bay window. There are no corners to
the house, as each of the four ends of
the residence are of the bay type. The
only wood used in the construction of
the building is to be found in the door
stills, windows and floors, the latter of
which will be hardwood. The walls
Of the building are of cement, finished
with white cement trimmings. Even
the two bath room are fitted with ce-
ment tubs. In all there are ten rooms.
The roof is Of concrete, surrounded
with a parapet, the porch roofs are Of
the same type, thus affording second
story porches in the front and rear,
both of which are fitted up with con.
concrete flower troughs in which
blooming flowers are now to be seen
even in the unfinished condition of
the house. On the front second story
porch a fountain is arranged.-Engi.

Contribution BOX
CONTAINED Horse

JAMESTOWN, June 26-Even a
horse was placed in the contribution
box in the form of pledge Of the
value of the animal when the great
annual Offering was taken at the
Methodist camp meeting Friday. The
offering. including the horse, checks,
cash and pledges amounted to $4,000,
the largest in the history of the camp
meeting.
1t has been the custom of the asso-
citation for a number of years to set
aside a financial day" when the big
Offering for the meetings is taken
and this fell on Friday this year.
AS usual this was announced this
year far in advance. At the appoint
ed hour large number met and after
short service were sent away to
praX over the amount that each should
give. When twenty minutes were up
the gong was sounded for reassembl-
ing and they took their former places
Then began the ''hallalujah march"
with the singing of hymn during
which all passed in front of the alter,
placing what they could give Many
who saw the procession say they new
|er saw people rejoice so heartily while
giving away their money.
When the Offering was picked up
lit was found to contain several checks
for $50, bank notes of denominations
and pledges to be redeemed at var
ious times during the next year. The
man who gave this -.orse said he
would turn over to the officials what
ever he realized from the sale of the
animal.
Thirteen hundred dollars of this
money will be expended in purchasing
the tents, bedding, chairs, cots. and
other equipment of the camp. which
has previously been hired. The camp
meeting association is incorporated
and it is believed will hold a clear
title to this property within the next
thirty days. The association is also
planning to purchase a plot of ground
for the meetings.

who has been very successful in the
meetings he has conducted during

WEEKLY FINANCIAL REVIEW.

The uncertain movements in the
market for Stock Exchange securl-
ties this week have been more or less
seasonable. That is to say, We have at
last definitely reached the stage where
our crops are at the critical point
and the future of the market. II as IN
the past, it is to be determined ny
the volumes and quality of our farm
products, is distinctly at issue. There
fore, a disposition has developer
among market operators who have az
cumulated profits to secure them and
avoid further immediate risk.
It is worth while for operators to
take a calm view of the agricultural
conditions that now prevail. In the
first place, winter wheat has been
fully harvested and in quality and
quantity is very close to bumper
harvest, if it does not, in fact, reach
that distinction. Spring wheat and
corn have reached their sensitive
point of growth. and protracted
drouth has already done some poten-
tial damage, which may readily be-
come permanent in the event of neces-
sary rains being much longer de-
layed. There is lack of reserve
moisture in the spring wheat states,
and from South Dakota the best adj
vices indicate that some degree of
irreparable damage has already been
done, possibly reaching 40 per cent of
that states normal yield. Indications
are also present of undesirable con-
ditions on the borderline of North Da-
kota, and also in southwestern Min.
nesota. But in North Dakota as a
whole and also Minnesota as whole
the conditions are still in a broad sense
ideal, and there remains sufficient lee:
way for further depression in spring
wheat territory as a whole without
bringing the prospects down to the
level of last years harvest. In corn,
which, of course, is the most important
Of all of our crops from the stock
market viewpoint the damage thus
far is prospective rather than actual.
Both corn and spring wheat are par
ticularly early this year-a factor Of
much importance, since it means less
danger from frosts at the tail-end of
the season Hay and oats are not up
to the average, which will mean a
greater demand for corn as a substi-
tute for these items as feed.
AS general proposition crop dam
age reports are usually exaggerations
and due allowance should be made
for this fact. 1t is worth while recall
ing that the total spring wheat crop
of South Dakota was last year less
than 47,O0O,O0O bushels, so that if
present predictions are confirmed,
and there should be toss of, say 50
per cent Cor 23,5OO,0OO bushels). it
would not be particularly disastrous
matter when we consider that condi
lions otherwise are so favorable ard
that the total wheat harvest promises

Although Washburn is smaller

in attendance, they have exoeri-

by one side, and then offset by the
other.
...ere have been lew sensations in
the Eickford trial. In fact, every
bit of the testimony, with the eXcep-
ton OF two departures, has been the
drafts, checks, figures and books,
which interested no one except the
principals and in fact, could be under
stood by but few. These two excep-
tons were the bits of testimony Of
fered by Mrs. Mitchell and Treasurer
Gunder Olson. Mrs. Mitchell said she
had told Bickford he must put some
thing in the cash drawer beside men,
orandum slips to count as cash, and
Olson told of the conversation with
the defendant in which the new treas
urer was asked to carry Bowbells bank
deposit slips as cash for ninety days
as the cash could not be raised to take
them up. From the spectacular stand
point, the trial has been a disappOint-
