IMPORTANT PART OF BUILDING
Ceremonies More or Less Elaborate
Generally Accompany Laying Of
Cornerstone.

The United States government puts
up public buildings all over the coun-
try, and cornerstone Is customarily
laid But there is no hole in the lat
ter unless it be requested by the local
authorities, or Masonic body desires
to conduct a ceremony.
The Masons take a special interest in
cornerstones. On such an occasion
they appear in full regalia. and cop
per box is used to hold the articles In
tered The box is soldered up and
placed inside the cornerstone, which
is then sealed with cement.
In Europe it is part of the bust
ness of monarchs to lay cornerstones.
In this country the services of presi-
dent are always in demand for the pur-
pose, if obtainable. On conspicuous
corner in Washington is cornerstone
laid by Mr.. Taft when he was presi-
dent 1t was meant for church that
remains yet unbuilt
Colonel Roosevelt, when president,
laid the cornerstone of the Masonic
temple in Washington. Oddly enough
1t was 80 feet in the air at the time
of the ceremony, upheld by timbers,
the ground beneath it having been dug
away to that depth. But it was neces-
sary to grab the president while the
grabbing was good.

Feeding Pigs by Machinery.

A hogmeter is not motor-hog
1t is a pig self-feeder. Two of these
ingenious Inventions have been tried
by the Western Australian minister for
agriculture on his farm, with eminent
ly satisfactory results.
The machine is combination of a
hopper, grinder, and delivery plat
form, which has ten divisions. The
ground wheat is equally distributed by
delivery chutes. The shouting instinct
of the pig has been requisitioned TO
supply the motive power, the divisions
on the platform being so arranged that
the animal, In trying to snout 1t out
of the way for more feed, forces the
platform round, thus grinding for itself
more wheat. which falls in the next
and succeeding divisions, and SO on.
Ten pigs can fed at the same time
There is no waste. The pig does not
crush more than he can eat. and he
cannot possibly eat more than he
brushes.

POORLY PAID MAIL CARRIERS
Dogs That Bring News From Home
to tho Lonely Men in Alaska Get
Little for Work.

There is a good deal of talk over
the meager pay received by mail car
riers, but the most poorly paid Of Uncle
4 Sans mail carriers receive far less
! than the familiar postman, yet never
make complaint. They get a pound
and a half of dried salmon for q Full
days pay.
They are the husky and the Mala-
mute, the native Eskimo and the ma
/. tive Indian dogs In the great Yukon
country. Without them the gold-seek-
ers, the fur traders, the shopkeepers
and the mission workers In the interior
of Alaska Except for the more fortu-
nate ones who live along the lines Of
the few railroads) would receive 40
mail from the time the Ice forms over
the rivers in October until it breaks up
in May.
Even the most inaccessible of post
ofnces receive mail once month in
winter (though only one mail is car
ried them, and for those in the interior
of Alaska the husky and the Malamute
are mail carrier and Santa Claus COM
bined. They would be without word
from the outside world for eight
months every year If 1T were not for
the mail dogs.
These animals are pushed to their
utmost by considerable and cruel driver
alike. for there is a prescribed task for
them every day, and all they got out
of it is pound and half of dried
salmon at the end of the day.
When they are not working their al
lowance of fish is cut down. In the
summer they are fed on the refuse of
fresh salmon at the fishing dumps,
where the mail contractor boards them
out until the rivers freeze again.

What Is said to be the record for re-

that persons can be resuscitated after
