most searching examination befor'
receiving assent and doubtless man!

Does Away With Long Climb.

Something unusual has been accom-
plshed in the completion Of the en-
trance to the Southwest museum. IN
Los Angeles. The building IS situ-
ated on 4 high hill and until recently
1t has been necessary for pedestrians
TO make a long and laborious climb
up the hill to reach the main entrance.
Now, however, the climb has been oh
waited by an artistic us we'll as prac-
teal Improvement. A tunnel 22i
feet long, was bored into the hill and
ended in a large octagonal waiting
room, on one side of which is a
twelve-passenger electric elevator
of the automatic type. The elevator
makes a climb of 10S feet, delivering
the passenger into the main hall Of
the museum.

The Yellow World.

II Is easy to see why Chlna's I'M
perlal color is yellow. writes a cor
respondent from Yangste river. Her
rivers are yellow. her long plains are
yellow--espeeialy In famine year
such as tIiis. and MS for her seas-the
boundaries Of her world-so desert
yellow is their color that a string Of
camels crossing them would look more
in keeping than string of junks.
And so one can understand why the
very heart of the heart Of China, the
Imperial city, should lie like SHIN
merlng lake of golden tiles within her
loius-besicged walls. Even against the
evidence Of my own eyes | cannot be
lIeve that the Great Wall Is built Of
solid ordinary stones laid one upon the
other Rather It seems moulded oui
Of the stuff Of which tie mountains
themselves were made, long ago when
the world was plastic and empty Of
all save possibilities. There never
was so slnuous thing as the Great
Wall built by men, think, so sinuous
and so aspiring.

Copper's Value as Alloy.

The use Of small proportion of
copper in all iron and steel products
exposed TO air and moisture Is ad-
vised by ID. Nj. Buck, metallurgical en-
gineer of the American Sheet and Tin
Plate company. The use of 0,15 TO
O.25 per cent, in normal open-hearth
or Bessemer steel greatly lessons cor
rosion, but heretofore the use of cop
per steel las been chiefly confined to
sheet metal. 1t Is estimated that the
life of the sheet metal is at least
doubled by the addition. Copper mets
at about 700 degrees +. below the aver
age tapping temperature of the steel
and it diffuses readily through the
metal without tendency to separate
out afterward.
