HOUSES PUT UP TO LAST
Worssmen OF Past Generation Did
Their Work In a Manner TO
Endure.

The Wayside inn, at Sudbury, OF
which Longfellow sung, was built in
1886. Repairs were made during the
present year In which some OF the
original clapboards we're removed. The
wrought-iron nails holding those
boards in place were found in almost
perfect condition, though they had
been In an exposed position for 22S
years.
The nails we're perfect because they
were pure iron. Careful analysis
could detect only the faintest traces
of carbon, manganese, copper or sui
phur. It seems established that pure
iron will not rust. The celebrated
aron pillar of Delhi has stood exposed
to the weather for 800 years, and
seems good for 800 more. It is even
more free from foreign substances
than the iron nails Of the Wayside
inn, which accounts for its superior
durability.
The problem of modern manufac-
turers is to produce pure iron by ma.
chine processes, and do it econom-
icalIy. A few claim to have gained
this desired goal, but the world in
general has It's doubts. Work went
slowly in the old days, but sometimes
it went with a sureness which pres
ent-day industry has yet to achieve.

Mountains Of Rock salt.

Near Jelfa, Algeria, 10 to be seen a
mountain OF rock salt, 300 feet in
height and E1arly mile In diameter.
Two other hills of this character are
known In Algeria, both being near
Biskra, and In all cases the salt il
surrounded by triassic marls and
olays. A curious feature of the Jelfa
hill is the fact that in spite of the
very soluble character OF the material
composing 1t 1t stands hp in high re-
lief from the surrounding clay and
contains no valleys or other sign of
erosion. II does, however, contain Q
number of sink holes, as In lime
stone country. When the brief tor
rental rains of winter occur the water
aE11ks almost at once into these cayi-
ties and soaks through the permeable
salt, emerging at the margin Of the
hill in salt springs.
