should be borne in mind that every
cubic foot of inclosed space. repre-
sents a fraction of the cost. In actual
practice the cost ranges from Is to
30 cents per cubic foot. If, due to
careless or impractical arrangement,
the space is not usable, it represents a
dead loss, and that fact will become
painfully evident to the owner if ever
the house is placed on the market.
These practical ideas of value
should be kept in mind when examin-

or in making up tentative plans from
which the final design is to be made.

Effect of Tides

For a long time it has been known
that the tides act as brake on the ro-
tating earth and that they tend to
lengthen the day. The effect is, how
ever, so slight that it cannot be meas
ured in any length of time at mans
disposal. Macmillan has made the
necessary computation by the formula
used by engineers. He finds for the
increase of the length of the day one
second in 100000 years.
