SYRlA'S HUGE MONOLITH.
esrgcst Stone Ever Cuarried is Relic
of Antiquity.

OF HUIlIulIJ'
One of the most Interesting proofs of
Tie wonderful civilization of the an
cients is afforded by the great slab of
stone at Baalbec, IN Syria. This huge
ntonolith is sixty-nine feet long, four
teen feet broad and seventeen feet in
depth. 1t is said to he the largest piece
of stone ever quarried and its estimat-
ed weight is 1900 tons
1t IS thought by archaeological schol-
ars that this huge stone was intended
by the ancient builders to ndorn the
Temple Of the sun near by-now, of
course, in ruins Here IN one of the
walls which sall stand are to BE- seen
huge slabs Of stone. which careful
measurenents show to be sizty-three
feet long and thirteen feet high.
And, more remarkable still, they are
placed in position nineteen feet above
the ground level Moreover, although
no sign Of any cemcuting miEturc is to
be found IN these ancient buildings.
the stones have been squared and pol
ighcd SO evenly that only after the
Most minute search can the joints be
