Building a Small House.

When the prospective owner of q
small house determines at last to build
the home to which he has been aspiring
for, perhaps, many years, he faces the
consideration with the realization of a
complex problem-the necessity of har-
monizing the ideal that has formed in
his years of anticipation with the stern
realities of the actual buildlng. Con-
cisely stated, his problem is this: To
combine the. five desira bles-space.
charm, distinction, utility and comfort
with the sixth, economy, within the
apparently limited allowance of the
small house. Sometimes he succeeds
in this. Generally he yields to the DIFF
ficulties presented and sacrifices one
or more of the desirable qualities,
thankful to get finished house after
all the dissension ensuant with build
ing progress. When, however, home
builder succeeds in the combining of all
these qualities in the construction OF
his house the achievement is worthy
of record. - Raymond Comstock in

ATLAS AND HIS LOAD.
II Was the Heavens, Not the Earth,
the Titan of Mythology Upheld.

Strictly speaking, ''atlas" is a mis-
homer for map book. since 1t was
not the world, but the heavens, that
the Atlas of mythology upheld Mer-
Gator, the famous Dutch geographer,
who made globes for Emperor Charles
V. of Germany, was the first to use
the name in this connection, choosing
1t as a convenient and In some sort an
appropriate title, because Atlas, the
demigod, figures with world upon his
shoulders as frontispiece of some
early works on geography.
Atlas, it was said, made war with
other Titans upon Zeus and, being
conquered. was condemned to bear
heaven upon his head and hands. Lat
er tradition represented him as man
changed by means of Medusa's head
into mountain, upon which rested
heaven and all it's stars.
In any case, Atlas was always asso-
ciated with heavy burden strongly
borne Thus Shakespeare makes War
wick say to Gloucester, Thou art no
Atlas for so great a weight"
1t is not difficult to see how by an
association of ideas this came to be
chosen as the name for book of
maps which upholds and exhibits to
us the whole world.

Blo Guns Not New.

Modern howitzers and siege guns are
giants of destructiveness, yet, making
allowance for time and experience,
we must still admire the good old
burghers of Client, who 500 years and
more ago turned out an iron "bom-
barde" that weighed thirteen tons.
This prototype of the up to date siege
gun had bore twenty-five inches In
diameter. Out Of it was projected a
granite ball that weighed 700 pounds.
Bronze guns as big were cast half a
century later at Constantinople. And
when only little over 100 years since
an earlier British fleet was fighting its
way into the Dardanelles these big
guns crippled six Of the English men

opinions meets the requirements.
In discussing the relative merits Of
our claims against England and Ger
many, there are neither party nor sec
tional lines in the Senate. The severest
of yesterdays disagreement came be-
tween two southern Democrats, Williams
of Mississippi, who rates property rights
low, and Smith of Georgia, who thinks
property is worth defending. Germany
was freely called murderer, England
plunderer.
Senator Smith, who represents heavy
cotton interests, believes this country's
loss of trade through illegal British in
reference is a matter for righteous pro-
test. Senator Williams ideas OF inter
national law cannot include property in
the same code with life. He apparently
believes that if we pressed our charges
against Britain, we should stand convict
ed of property worship-as though such
q conviction could be possible after our

We don't want TO lose sight of our case

tract whatever satisfaction the law al

time we'd hate to admit that we're so
narrow and so stubborn that we can't
