New Metal Discovered.

A new metal has been discovered in
the Nelson mining district Of British
Columbia by Andrew G. French, and 1t
has been named Canadium. 1t is allied
to the platinum group and occurs pure
In the form of grain and short crystal
line rods, and also an alloy, and assays
give three ounces or less to the ton.
Canadium has brilliant luster, and,
like gold and silver and platinum, does
not oxidize when exposed to the air; it
Is softer than platinum and its melting
point is q great deal lower. The ply
steal and chemical properties of the
metal are to be studied at the chemical
laboratory of the University of Glas-
gov.
Canadium is the first new metal TO
be discovered in anything more than
infinltesimal quantities since 1885.

AMERICA is MAKING TILES
Decorations In Spanish, Moorish and
Other Designs of Past Centuries
Add to Beauty of Homes.

In this country the making of tiles
has been taken up with enthusiasm by
potters. The styles vary greatly in
color and texture, showing Spanish,
Moorish, German, old English and 9TH
er designs. The interesting way in
which they may be used to decorate q
modern facade is shown In a house
on Nineteenth street, New York city.
The tiles are set Off with especial re-
finement and brilliancy by the rough
cement background.
The large panel over the door is Of
pleasing, medium blue color, and the
decoration is of peacock, the whole
panel being in four parts. These were
taken from the Basilica of st. Apollin-
arts at Ravenna. Around it is border
of thing and cement and the small
tiles which ornament the ground show
two swastika forms.
One of these is copied from a tile
at Tyro, the other copied from one ex-
cavated at Persepolis. This doorway
is further enhanced by large garden
pots, one on either side. These are
made of the same materials, a gray,
negative concrete, with tiles of his
toric design in dull green's and blues
and browns imbedded in the material
of the vase. The tulip design on one
of these vases is eighteenth century
German.

SHOULD RELY ON ARCHITECT
Common Sense Owner Will Make Ne
Suggestions Within Province of
Expert, 1t Is Asserted.

Architects face several hard prob
lens in the construction of house for
a new owner. The latter believes that
since the money which pays for the
house is his he must be given the lib
erty to declare what builder is to get
the job after all bids are in. The
owner fOrgets that the architect knows
more about building than he; that he
is an expert in that line and for that
reason the owner has hired him. The
common sense owner makes no Sug-
gestions within the province of the
architect, but relies on his judgment.
Should the owner be allowed his own
way, he would oftentimes get into hot
water, says an exchange.
Naturally the owner in awarding the
der because he is the lowest bidder.
The lowest bidder may not be of suf-
ficient financial means to meet Obliga-
tons in case he is given the contract,
and mechanics liens tie up the con-
struction of the house, making the
owner the loser and not the builder.
The architect, who probably knows
the builder is not the proper man to
build the house, advises against him.
In this way the architect protects his
client because he, by reason of his
work, is able to discriminate between
the INSCRIPTIONS and the scrupulous
builders, and the financially-fitted and
the builder with weak finances.

A Berlin Advertisement.

In Germany now there are advertise
ments which are not only news, but
imply great deal outside Of the direct
news sought to be conveyed.
AS an instance the Berlin Tages
Zeitung recently contained a want ad,
reading as follows For exchange, 80
Polish laborers, 20 men and 30 girls,
for the same number Of other hands"
Polish labOrers in Germany are not
permitted to change masters or to
move from place to place without gov
eminent authorization. With such au-
thorization, however, the masters can
make exchanges, as we trade horses
and mules, or as our housewives eX-
change soap grease for soap, or old
rags for door mats, kitchen tins and
such.-EXChange.

Mistakes liz DRAINAGE.

1t has been learned by experience
as well as by experimental investiga-
ton that the influence of a tile drain
in removing water from soil Of uni
form character Is increased by low
ering the drain. A drain laid at con-
siderable depth along one side of
road Is better than two drains at less
depth. one on each side Of the road,
provided the soil is Of a uniform
character. Unfortunately, this quail
flying provision in the general state
ment Is often forgotten, and single
line of tile is laid along one side of
a road where the conditions are such
that it cannot possibly perform the de-
sired work. In subsoil which changes
from sand to a compact, fairly imper-
vious clay at six feet, 1t would be UNI
wise to install drains deeper than six
feet, for otherwise they would be In
material yielding very little water, and
might even prove less effective than
drains laid at the level Of the clay
surface.

CHAPTER ~.
The Serenade.

A subject that never failed to arouse
the sarcasm and the ire of Fairy was
that Of the Slaughter-house quartet
This was composed of four young
men-men quite outside the pale as
far as the parsonage was concerned
the disreputable characters of the COM
munity, familiar in the local Jail for
frequent bursts of intoxication. They
slOuched. they smoked, they lounged,
they leered. The churches knew them
not. They were the Stun element, the
Bowery of Mount Mark, Iowa.
Prudence, in her day, had passed
them by with shy, slight nod and
n glance Of tender pity. Fairy and
Lark, and even Connie, sailed by with
high heads and scornful eyes -
naughty, proud, icily removed. But
Carol, by some weird and inexplicable
fancy, treated them with sweet and
gracious solicltude, quite friendly. Her
smile as she passed was as sweet as
for her dearest friend. Her "Good
mornlng-isn't this glorious weather.
was as affably cordial as her Break
fast is ready, papa"
This was the one subject of dispute
between the twins.
"Oh, please don't, Carol, it does
make me so ashamed" Lark entreated.
"You mustn't be narrow-minded.
Larkie," Carol argued. "We're minis
ter's girls, and we've got to be a good
infiuence-an encouragement to the
er, weak and erring, you know. Maybe
my smiles will be an inspiration to
them"
And on this point Carol stood firm
even against the tears Of her precious
twin.
One evening at the dinner table
Fairy said, with a mocking smile,
How are your Slaughter-house friends
.oday, Carol? l see by last nights pa
per that Guy Fleisher is just out after
his last thirty days up. Did he find
his incarceration trying?"

heard the serenade, and promptly con-
cluded that it was the work of some
of the high-school boys, who were
unanimously devoted to Carol. She
had big box of chocolates upstairs,
for Comics birthday celebration. She
could get them and make lemonade
and
She opened the door softly and
stepped out, directly in the path Of
the startled youths. Full of her hos
pitable intent, she was not discerning
as parsonage people need to be.
"Come in, boys" she said cordially,
"the girls will be down in a minute"
The appearance of guardian angel
have COMPOUNDED them more utterly.
They stumbled all over one another In
trying to back away from her. She
laughed softly. -
Don't be bashful. We enjoyed it
very much. Yes, come right in"
Undoubtedly they would have de-
clined If only they could have thought
of the proper method of doing so. AS
it was, they only succeeded in sham
bling through the parsonage door, in
stinctively concealing their half
smoked cigarettes beneath their fin
gers.
Aunt Grace uShered them into the
pleasant living room, and ran up to
summon her nieces. .
Left alone, the boys looked at one
another with amaZement and with
grief, and the leader, the touching
tenor, said with true musical fervor
"Well, this is a go!"
In the meantime, the girls, with hor.
ror had heard their aunt's invitation
What in the world did she mean? Was
it trick beween her and Fairy? Had
they hired the awful Slaughterers to
bring this disgrace upon the parson
age? Sternly they faced her when she
opened their door.
"Come down, girls--I invited them
In. I'm going to make lemonade and
| serve my nice chocolates. Hurry
| down."
"You invited them in" echoed Con
