government should furnish ponies for
the boys, give them instruction in
horseback riding and train them in
skill in riding and develop their hardi-

MOVING STONE OF TANDIL

One morning every true ArgentiniaL

OF LA Piedra Movediza de Tandir'-
the Moving Stone of Tandil. No one
knows how many centuries this huge
rock, which the Argentines proudly
proclaimed as one of the Seven Won
ders of the World, had stood among,
the granite hills of Tandil, perfectly
poised on its narrow fulcrum less tnan
eight inches square.
The Tandil quarries are situated
about $50 miles south of Buenos Aires.
and every summer tourists have been
occustmed to make the pilgrimage
from the capital to view the national
phenomenon and carve their names on
its ancient sides. Standing In a GER

great stone to rock up and down fully
four inches. Visitors never tired OF
throwing under it. as it swung up
wards, pieces of glass and small
stones, which would be crushed to pow
der on the downward sway.
Tradition has it that the tyrant
Rosa, name of Ill omen in Argentine

years ago, tried to dislodge the Nov

story is true or not, the old sentinel
continued to maintain his watch over
the surrounding fertile plains, appar-
emily undisturbed by either the friend
lines or the hostility of mankind. The
elements likewise were foiled in their
warfare, though once bolt of light
ming ripped off a piece weighing about
| three tons.
What finally caused the downfall of

vanced by the groups around the cafe

came the basis Of many heated ar

When the construction of skyscrap-

loss to devise a style Of treatment
suited to what was called "a building

York architect, conceived the idea OF
designing such building in way
analogous to column-that Is as
shaft and capital. This treatment Is
now generally followed. The base is
usually three stories in height, with
strong horizontal lines, and serves to
break the vertical effect of the middle
or shaft section. The capital or
architectural attic serves the same
purpose at the top of the building.
In the middle section the vertical lines
are accumulated. In this way the

Washington's Sewerage System Pronounced Best.

average of nearly nine miles of river

ENEROUS Uncle Sam who for oFet
" century has been giving away
homesteads in the west through his
general land Office here, has decided
that in order to make these lands
more attractive to the prospective set
tiers he must make some concessions
which will render them easier to ac-
quire. AS result of the constant
granting of homestead tracts, ranging
from 40 to 800 acres, since the enact
ment Of the homestead act OF 1868,
during which time the government has
given away gratis more than $780,
355 acres in final homestead entries,
the land office has found had on its
hands lands less suitable for cultiva-
ton and farming purposes than in for

mer years, and consequently fewersap-
plications for homesteads.
According to the latest report of the
land office there still remain to be dis
posed of in homestead, timber, coal,
mineral and stone lands 695,401, 259
acres, situated in what are commonly
known as public land states. About
one-quarter of these lands have been
surveyed.
In order, then, to induce entries on
the remaining lands, congress recently
passed law providing that certain
restrictions on these entries in the
way of cultivation. residence, etc.. be
moderated so that settlers would find
it less difficult to live up to the speci-
fications set forth in homestead laws.
One of the most attractive features of
the new law is the three-year resi-
dence clause. This provides that in
order to entitle person to a patent
upon a homestead it must be shown
that he has resided on the farm for
three years. Honorably discharged
soldiers and sailors are entitled to
claim credit for the period of service.
after they have resided upon, i'm

period of at least one year.

PROPOSALS IN THE ALPS

In remote Alpine hamlets and vii
aages, especially in the Bernese Ober-
land. there still exist ancient and
pretty customs of proposing marriage
by the language of flowers. If maid
accepts a bouquet of edelweiss from
a man. she at the same time accepts
him as her fiance, the idea being that
the man has risked his life to obtain
the flowers for the woman he loves.
Another method which exists in the
Canton of Glarus is for the young man
TO place a fower-pot containing a
single rose and a note on the window
sill of the girls room when she is
absent from home. and perhaps
days-for a reply. # the maid takes
the rose the young man boldly enters
the house to arrange matters with
her parents. but if the rose is allowed
TO fade away the proposal is rejected

changed between the couple. Some

INCREASE STRENGTH OF BOAT
Vessel Recently Constructed in Eng
land on Which Is What Is Called
Corrugated System.

As a means of increasing the longi-
tudinal strength of vessel without
any corresponding increase In the
weight, a vessel has been recently
constructed in England on which is
called the corrugated system, and the
results of the innovation as noted in
actual experience have been very sat
isfactory. Along the entire length OF
the vessel there are two corrugationsf
in the lower part of the hull and are
entirely out of sight when the vessel
is loaded and their efficacy In impart-.
ing increased stiffness to the hull are
not to be questioned The stress on
the material is reduced at both keel
and gunwale The construction of the
sides of the ship with these corruga-
lions is rather an addition than a
vital alteration of the main structural
system, and it can be supplied to any
type Of steamship. The builders claim
that the extra cost is slight; and the
dead weight carrying capacity is in
creased from three to four per cent.
The coal bill is reduced from II to-
Is per cent for the same speed; or.
If the coal consumption is maintained
as before, the speed of the ship with
the extra dead weight is increased
from 0.25 to O5 knot, according to
the size and class of the ship.
