THE HOUSE OF THREEs.
Curious Architecture of England's
Most Peculiar Building.


The most peculiar house In the Unit
ed Kingdom is probably the triangular
one at Rushton, In Northamptonshire.
It's design is supposed to typify the
trinity.
This singular building has three sto-
ries, and each story has three win
dows on each of the three sides, while
each of the windows In two Of the
three stories is in the shape of tre-
foil-the three leayed shamrock. In
each of the other windows there are
twelve panes, arranged in three fours,
and the panes throughout are TRAN
gular.
Three gables rise on each side and
from the center, where their roofs
meet, three sided chimney surmount
ed by triangular pyramid terminates
in a large trefoil The smoke issues
from three round holes on each Of the
three sides of the chimney,
Three Latin inscriptions, one on each
side of the house, have each thirty
letters, while over the door there Is
another Latin Inscription of three
words, the English of which is, "There
are three that bear record" and on
each side are the carved figures of
three angels bearing shields.
Inside the house each floor contains
three three-sided apartments. The
length of each of the walls by outside
measurement is thirty three feet four
inches-that Is, exactly thirty three
and one-third feet London Telegraph.

A Joint Concern.

When Richard Brlnsley Sheridan
was In distress, in early life, one of his
resources was that Of writing for the
fugitive publications of the day, in
which he was materially assisted by
his wife, and many years after his
entrance into the spheres Of politics he
was heard to say that "if he had stuck
to the law he believed he should have
done as much as his friend Tom
Erskine; but" continued he, u had
no time for such studies Mrs, Sheri.
dan and myself were often obliged to
keep writing for our daily leg or shoul-
der of mutton; otherwise we should
have had no dinner" One Of his
friends, to whom he confessed this,
wlttily replied, "Then perceive 1t was

for torture; the other served rs n prison
The castle also contained museum OF

blunt topped spikes To 1t the victim
was tightly bound, and In short time
discomfort began to manifest itself and

Its continuance the torture was increas-

LoNDoN's sLUM BABIES.
Gutter Children That Thrive Where
They Court Death.

Gutter Children That Thrive Where
They Court Death.
London gutter babies are immune to
ordinary diseases and thrive under con
ditions that would be death to other
children, said DR.. Thomas, health Of
ficer Of the Finsbury district DR..
Thomas works in the most congested
of the London boroughs, where 6,000
families live and sleep in 6,000 rooms.
"Some Of these babies he says, "as
soon or even before they are able to
crawl, are placed on the sidewalks
early In the day, to be watched or
nursed by girl of four or FIVE years.
They are true gutter children. Some
times the immature nurse falls asleep,
wearied by her task, and the baby
crawls to the other side of the road,
needless of traffic. Both are filthy
and gutter stained, but they seem to
live. In fact, the stock from which
they have sprung rises superior to the
ordinary diseases Of childhood" Among
the cases reported are these:
A baby four months old was given q
piece of raw fat and bacon to chew,
because the grandmother said bacon
was good for babies and canaries.
One baby was dosed with stout and
aniseed by the mother as cure for
collie.
Another baby of nine weeks was fed
chiefly on weak tea.
DR.. Thomas complains of the Sal
rey Camps, who act as nurses In the
district, undolng the work Of the doc
tors In many cases. He says their ar
rogance is equaled only by their ig-
norance.--New York Tribune.

Many New Buildings on Farms and in

Many more new buildings for Athena

country. The general feeling of better
times is rapidly spreading and with
the advent Of spring, new jobs are op-
ening up.
Many modern step saving Homes are
being contemplated. A general i'm
provement 10 the architecture Of homes
of this vicinity is being noticed. The
plan book which the ] um A. Lum Lum.
bel Go. loan to prospective homaEuild
ers contains over one hundred designs
of homes, all of which have been built
in the Northwest before and have been
designed by Northwest Architects, so
they are appropriate for this part Of
the country.
Barns. General Purpose Barns, Horse
Barns and Dairy Barns are teing con-
templated. In the two story barns.
the special Tuna -Lum Circle Roof
or Gambrel roof seem to be the two
styles most favored. Both Of these are
self-supporting and will be found in

signed by their Engineers. to be built
of stock lumber from their free plans.
They have proven very satisfactory.
and are recommended over stave silos
for hot dry climates. By reason of alb
senue of patents, their cost is about
half the cost of patented stave silos.
Hog sheds, Chicken Houses. Milk
houses, etc. will make up large part
of the smaller types of buildings. Ma
