The S5-foot lock canal which is being con-
structed consists of a sealevel entrance chan
mel miles long, 500 feet wide and Al feet
deep on the Atlantic side to the foot of Gatun
pronounced "Gatoon") locks. On the Pacific
side there is a corresponding sea-level chan
mel to Mirafores locks, about miles long,
500 feet wide and As feet deep.
At Gatun the 85-foot lake level is obtained
by great dam about mile and "a half long,
and nearly half a mile thick at the bottom or
base. The dam rests on impermeable material
of sufficient supporting power, and fills the
openings between the hills at Gatun, through
which the Chagres pronounced "ShaggersO
river. flows to the sea- This river crosses the
channel of the canal no less than fifteen times
in it's serpentine course and is one OF the
most turbulent streams known during high
water though it looks peaceful enough during
the dry season. 1t was one Of the great OBJ
structions to the possibility of digging sea-
level canal, but this enemy has been converted
into friend, and will be made to supply the
greater portion of the water for filling the
great artificial lake.
The great Gatun dam-upon the successful
completion of which depends the success OF
the canal-consists of water-t;ght center or
core composed of clay and sand mixed In
proper proportions. These materials were
adopted after consultation with the best ex-
perts in the world, who came to the conclusion
that clay and sand were the most 1mperVlOuS
materials that could be used. This material,
after being properly mixed, is deposited n.y.
draulically-that is, by being pumped In by
dredges This center is confined by a
rock wall on each side, the rock so used
being taken from Culebra cut. At the bot
tom this impermeable core of clay and sand
has width of about $50 feet, and gradually
tapers upward until a minimum thickness OF
400 feet will be had at the water level OF the
lake. The dam will rise to height OF lib
feet or a distance of 80 feet above the level
of the lake. The artificial lake-which will
be known as Lake Gatun-will cover an area
of 1874 square miles, or over 100000 acres The
entire navy of the United States can find safe
anchorage therein.
The greatest obstacle that has stood in the
way of the engineers for the past 500 years
in constructing canal across Panama has
been the mountain range known as the Cor
dieras-the backbone of the continent. 1t
was here that the French people wasted and
squandered such a great amount of money
that the picture shown above is called Gold
hill"-it being asserted that they spent enough
in their endeavor to cut through the noun
tain at this point that the money used would

sist of two leaves and are massive steel struc-
lures Z feet thick, IS feet long and from AZ
to 80 feet high. Eightyfour leaves Will be
required for the entire canal, and their total
weight will be 100000 pounds, and will cost
nearly $6,000000
When the canal is completed-which Colonel
George w. Goethals. who is in charge of the
great work, says will be some time during the
year 1913-here is the manner in which a YES
sci from the Atlantic side will get to the Pacific:
1t will enter the sealevel channel at Colon and
go distance of seven miles to the foot of Ga
tun locks there it will be lifted by means OF
these locks height of IS feet above the sea
level to the surface of Gatun lake; the gates
of the lock will be opened and it will steam
out on this lake and go distance of % miles
to the beginning of the great Culebra cut, and
carefully proceeding through this cut dis
lance of nine miles, it will check up at Pedro
Miguel locks, where it will enter the lock and
be lowered distance of % 1-3 feet to the lever
of Mirafores lake, and then it will steam a
distance of three miles across this lake to
Mirafiores locks, where it will be lowered by
two flights distance of Sc 23 feet to sea
level; and then it will enter the Pacific chan
mel Of the canal and go distance of eight
miles out to deep water of the ocean. 1t will
require from ten to twelve hours for vessel
to make the passage from one ocean to the
other-thus saving many thousands Of miles
of travel, and many days of time in journey
to any of the ports on the Pacific side OF
the Americas and also to the Orient.
Colonel Goethals states most positively
that the cost of the canal will not be over
1915, 100000; and in this amount is included
the purchase of the French company's be-
longings- $40 .000, 000-and the $1000O000 paid
for the Canal Zone, and also the cost of the
sanitary department. which of course has been
q considerable amount
In order to get some idea of what the
cost of the canal means-$375 s, 600, 00O-and put
1t so the mind can in some measure grasp the
figures, we make the following statement
There are in the world nine principal canals,
to wit: The Suez, the Kiel, the Manchester,
the United States Ste Marie, the Canadian
Ste. Marie, the Amsterdam, Corinth, Cron-
stadt and the Erie-Ontario canal. The total
cost of all nine of these canals was 1894 000,-
600. which is less by Sill 900, 900 than the
Panama canal alone will cost at the lowest
estimate. But even if this amount is doubled,
the United States will complete it. The pride
and reputation Of the nation are at stake, and
she cannot afford to make failure as all the
other countries have done that have gone be-
fore.

SUCCESSFUL TREATMENT. OF
PIMPLES AND BLACKHEADS


A speedy and economical treatment
for disfiguring pimples is the follow
ing: Gently smear the face with Cuti-
cura Ointment, but do not rub, Wash
off the ointment in five minutes with
Cuticura Soap and hot water and
battle freely for some minutes. Re-
peat morning and evening. At other
times use not water and Cuticura
Soap for bathing the face as often as
agreeable. Cuticura soap and ONT
ment are equally successful for itch
ing, burning, scaly and crusted hui
mors of the skin and scalp, with loss
of hair, from infancy to age, usually
affording instant relief, when all else
fails Send to Potter Drug & Chem.
Corp, Boston, Mass, for the latest

ment of the skin and scalp.

and expectations of the great engineer, and
carrying sorrow and want to the homes of
thousands upon thousands of French people
who had contributed their little all toward
forwarding the great enterprise. The nation
was brought to the very verge of revolution.
Judicial proceedings were instituted, and trials
were had, extending over a period of five
years. There was disclosed to the Mortified
world such an orgy of corruption as history
had never before recorded. hundred French
senators and deputies were accused OF having
taken brides, and the police department was
under the same charge.
Count de Lesseps never recovered from the
shock-and went down to his grave in 1884
only 16 years ago-a broken-hearted old man
but his fame will remain immortal despite
the sad ending of his career.
In 1903 the United States purchased the
interests and belongings of the French COM
pany on the Isthmus of Panama, paying there
for the sum of $40, 900, 000-the assets consist
ing of valuable surveys, implements Of all
kinds, many thousand houses, railroads, land;
and also paid the Republic of Panama $10,-
100000 for the Canal Zone-a strip Of land in
said Republic of Panama ten miles wide and
practically so miles extending from Co.
lon on the Atlantic side to Panama City on
the Pacific Through the center of this ten
mile strip the canal is being constructed. At
present there is an army of nearly 10000 men
engaged in the gigantic undertaking OF build
ing this great water highway from ocean to
ocean.
The first party Of Americans went to Pana-
ma In 1904 to begin work, but they found the
country infested with diseases of the most
fatal kinds, and the year 1904 was practically
spent in improving health conditions This
work has been under the supervision Of Col.
w. C. Gorgas, and SO effective have been the
methods pursued by him and his able assist
ants in the Canal Zone of the Isthmus of
Panama that the health conditions of that
tropical country are about as good today as
those of the southern states of America
Contrary to the general belief, the United
States is not digging big ditch" across the
Isthmus of Panama. When the canal is fin
ished and ships are steaming across Panama
from the Atlantic to the Pacific, or vice versa,
the waters of the two oceans will still be at
least forty miles apart. They will never meet
at ALL sea-level canal, which would have
allowed the waters of the Atlantic and the
Pacific to come together, is not being dug; but
an 85-foot lock canal is being constructed. AS
to the relative merits of the sea-level and the
lock canal it is not within the province of this
article to discuss.

England, was proclaimed there, and in
1888 Queen Elizabeth attended in
state at thanksgiving service for the
defeat of the Spanish armada. Eight
years later, while the lord mayor was
at service there, he received an order
from the queen to raise 1000 men to
aid the French in the defense OF
ming the men had been recruited and
were marching on the road to Dover.
Among those who did penance at
the cross was Jane Shore, the IA
vorite of Edward w., while a still
more remarkable case was that OF
Lady Markham, wife of Sir Griffin
Markham, who in 1917 stood at the
cross In a white sheet and was fined
$4,000 for marrying one of her serv-
ants while her husband was alive.
This was the spot chosen, too,
when anything had to be denounced.
and consequently the bull of Pope
Paul II. was read from, threatening
all shoemakers who put peaks OF
more than two inches long on the
shoes they made, and censuring, as
well, all, whether shoemakers or not,
who went to fair on Sunday.
These are but a few of the things
which took place at what was, in old
time, the center of the public life, not
only of the city, but also of the union,
for 1t was at once the exchange, the
club, and the meeting place of Lon
don. Here heralds proclaimed the
news of victories by sea and land;
here, we are told, men threw up their
bonnets when they heard of Crecy
and Agincourt;; here 1t was that
sovereign brought his new-made
wife to show her to his faithful sub
.jects; and last, but not least, it was
here that the wives and daughters OF
the citizens gathered for their little
gossips and f1irtations.
1t was doomed to destruction. The
last sermon was preached there in
May 80, 1880, before King Charles L.,
and in 1643 the cross was demolished
by order of the long parliament.
The new cross is built in accord
ance with a bequest of the late H. e.
Richards, who left $4,000 for the pur.
pose. 1t consists of a Doric column
on the top of which is a bronze figure
of ST. Paul. nine feet high.

NOT ACCORDING TO PROGRAM
His Wife, and Doubtless
He Did.

When the first shipment of frozen
eggs arrived from Australia their ex-
IRENE hardness astonished the brok-
ers.
One man, calling at a brokers' office,
was amazed to see him taking aim at
the wall with an egg.
What the dickens are you at?'' he
said
But the broker let drive, the only
result being slight dent in the wall.
The thing being explained, the man
took a couple of the eggs, put them
in his pocket, and left to startle his
wife. Arriving home, he waited till
the family was assembled for dinner,
and then banged an egg at the new
dado.
But the smile quickly faded from
his face The egg had thawed.-Lon'

a Fairly Met World.

The Pacific ocean covers 68,00O,OOO
miles, the Atlantic 30,O00,000 and the
Indian, Arctic and Antarctic 42,000,0OO.
To stow away the contents of the Pa
cific it would be necessary to fill a
tank one mile long, one mile wide and
one mile deep every day for 440 years.
Put in figures, the Pacific holds in
weight $4,000, 100000, OOo, 100000 tons.
The Atlantic averages a depth OF
not quite three miles. It's water weighs
1926, 1000, 900, 600, 100000 tons, and a
tank to contain it would have each OF
its sides 43 miles long. The figures
of the other oceans are in the same
startling proportions. 1t would take
all the sea water in the world 1000, 900
years to flow over Niagara.
