was gambling on his friends claim
proving up. One day. when Peterman
was at the claim-agency office, he
came upon this advertisement in the
agency files: "Peterman (Albertus), /,
musician, born in Amsterdam, 1929,
son Of Charles Frederick and Henri
eta Suzanna Gasman. Left for Liver
pool, 1866, He ,is sought for inheri-
tance by M. Contot, advocat, 21 Bou-
leGard st. Germain, Paris" That was
the inception of the famous ''Kinsey
docks" case, the name coming from
the fact that the original Peterman
was last seen at the Kinsey docks in
Liverpool. The claim agency took the
matter in hand. traced Peterman's lin
cage; back, and enabled him to estab-
iish good claim tg an inheritance of

Nomad's Tent.

Pekfn, China.--Isolated from other
nations by geographical barriers, such
as seas, deserts and mountains
ranges, the Chinese developed a civ.
ilizatlon which was entirely their own.
Their customs, arts and sciences were
indigenous and original They Dor
rowed little or nothing from other peo-
pies. but built upon their own founda-
tions. The architecture of the Chi
nese 10 typical or the originality OF
their, civilization; 1t contains no bor-
rowed elements, no exotic features.
The Chinese house exhibits certain
features which can be traced directly
back to the tents Of the barbarian an
cestors7of the Chinese. who wandered
into China from the west. The roof
of a Chinese house, though made of
rafters and tiles, still retains the
shape of tent. 1t hangs In graceful
curves and is caught up at the cor
sners like canvas. It does not rest
upon the walls of the house. but upon
wooden pillars, which are placed IN
the same position as the poles of a
tent. The process of construction re-
minds one of the erection of tent;
the pillars and the roof are erected
FIRST and the walls are filled in after
ward.
1t is not only externally but inter-
nally that the Chinese house reminds .
one of tent. There is no ceiling to
hide the inner surface Of the sloping
roof and it's supporting rafters. In
stead of a wooden floor there is only
layer Of bricks to cover the cold
earth. The brick floor is covered with
mats and rugs, which also remind one
of tent. The furniture is portable
and makes one think Of the desert.
Most of the movables in a Chinese
house, even the stove, could be loaded
on the back of camel or carried on
a pole. A Chinese house is a COM
posite affair. consisting of a number
of buildings arranged around squares
