SURELY "NOTHINi IS NEW"
Discoveries In Babylonia Give Re-

Ancient Saying.

Six thousand years ago the ladies'
painted their cheeks and penciled
their eyebrows, according to DR.. E. J.
Banks, who gave an illustrated lee
ture before the photographed section
OF the American institute Of the city
Of New York, says the Evening Sun
Of that city.
1t was Doctor Banks who conducted
the expedition into Babylonia and
helped dig up the ruins of some of the
ancient cities for which enterprise
John D. Rockefeller contributed $780,.
600 to the University of Chicago. In
telling of Modern Babylonia and Its
Buried Cities" the archeologist had
thrown upon the screen pictures OF
many kinds of earthen wares found
among the ruins of the ancient dwell.

tracted especial attention.
THAT" said the lecturer, "shows
that the ladies painted their cheeks
and penciled their eyebrows 6,OOC
years ago, just about like some a
them do today. The inside of one OF
the cups was red, while the other was
black. The twin vases were found in

"SnTE HOUSE" THERE YET
Boston Building Is Said to Go Back
to Days IT the American
Revolution.

What Is believed to be one of the
narrowest and oldest dwelling houses
In this country is that at A Hull
street, Boston. The house is less than
IL feet wide and it's erection is said to
date back to the American Revolution
airy period. The dwelling, constructed
of wood and particularly peculiar in
the midst of the modern brick struc-
lures in that vicinity. is located direct
ly opposite the entrance of Cops Hill
burying ground and within the shad-
Ow Of what once was the ammunition
barracks Of the British army. 1t is p
feet long. with its entrance on Hull
Street place, which Is also so narrow
that one has almost to enter the alley
way sidewlse. There are three stories
and an attic floor. One room, the
kitchen, Is in the basement, and on the
street floor are the dining and living
rooms. There is q bedroom above
these, and on the third floor Is another
bedroom.
The dwelling is referred to by North
Enders as the "Spite House." 1t
earned this sObriquet, according to q
legend that has been persistent for
years to the effect that the original
owner, Tory, had the house erected
to shut Off the natural light from the
home Of a neighbor with whom he had
quarreled. AS the result Of the al
legged spite" the neighbor, 80 the leg

No Advantage in Holding Back

There are many persons contemplate
ing building construction who have
been holding back in anticipation of
lower prices for lumber, cement, bricK,
lime and plaster this autumn and next
winter and spring. The foregoing
cement statistics, which are official,
show the futility of such policies.
Lumber, by way of another example,
which has been the weak spot IN the
building material market during the
last thirty to sixty days owing to tenn
porary financial embarrassment of GER
tain heavy holders, last week passed
out of the depression and the upward
price trend is again under way.
Eastern spruce will be retailing at
500 to $50 base before the first Of
September The demand is abnormal
ly heavy, There is no surplus at the
sources Of supply and the cutting at
the mills is proceeding at rate far
below even present market require
ments. The supply of maple, however
imnrov ne. 1t is a good time to buy
this material now, as prices are going
up soon. Practically the entire available
supply for this year is now on the way
into this market.
North Carolina pine is in fairly good
supply on 4, 6, and los, with higher
prices scheduled to take effect in the
near future. North Carolina box is al
ready up IS.
By way of citing the turn in this
market random orders are no longer
accepted in the general trade. All
widths now are specified with car
load minimum to the width.
There is still great difficulty in
getting lime in sufficient quantities 20
meet the markets needs. but outside Of
this instance there are unmistakable
signs that an Improvement IN the
building material supply situation may
be conservatively looked for from now

Market Takes
Bri liter TURF,
Motor Trucks Play Large
Part in the Shipping of
Materials Here and to
New England Places

Railroad car restriction orders
circumscribing limestone as we'll as
coal deliveries at cement manufacture
ing plants, added another thirty cents
a barrel to construction costs last
week, says The Dow Service Daily
Building Reports.
Plants in the Lehigh and Hudson
cement manufacturing districts are
closing down because they can get
neither limestone nor coal, and yet the
current stock on hand is 25 per cent
less than that of year ago, with de-
mand probably eight times what it then
was. Production in zones l and sup
plying this market is 35 per cent
greater than at this time last year
with shipments to New York and New
England at least rs per cent greater
than at this time last year SO far as
the first six months of 1920 are con-
cerned Shipments into New York and
New England for the first fifteen days
of July we're rs per cent greater than
they were last July at this time de-
spite the car shortage, which gives
fair idea of the part that the motor
truck has been playing in keeping
building under way this year.
The demand for cement even at the
advancing prices has been so insistent
that with the delivery of coal
under contract the cost of coal con-
sumed at the premium prices manu-
facturers now have to pay for fuel,
for the manufacture of single barrel
of cement is more than the cost of
a whole barrel of cement, burned,
packed and delivered, only little
more than year ago. Cement in stock
in all the manufacturing plants in the
country to-day is IS per cent below
the total quantity available for sale
at this time last year.
