enr OF OTHER DAYS
Century Old Building In Providence,
/. Rhode Island, 10 Survival Of
NapoIeonIc Era.

A recent incident In Providence,
Rhode Island, calls attention to an
old landmark reminiscent of Napo-
leon and his construction of the Mad
eleine in Paris. Napoleon's building
set a little fashion In America. and
several structures more or less like II
were built In different cities. The Ar
cade building. IN Providence, Is the
only one Of them left. Erected about
1920, II became an Ionic temple, that
was also center of retail trade, and
It's pillars remain today the largest
monoliths in the country, except those
which have been raised for the grow
Ing Cathedral OF st. John the Divine,
In New York. The record tells how
they were cut by hand, In the town Of
Johnston, and dragged to Providence
on sleds, nearly q, hundred years ago.
II tells also that the dedication Of the
building was grand public affair, and
that the temple was long held to be
one of the architectural wonders OF
the United States. 1t is not OF such
commercial Importance as 1t used tC
be, but one may be glad that the city
has not lost such a reminder OF the
Napcleonic era.

Hops.

Hops are grown in number OF
states. In the central and northern
part Of the state OF New York many
farmers make specially of their
growth. The yield Is from 700 to 800
pounds the acre In that state. but on
the Pacific coast. where most of the
hops consumed. here are grown, the
yield is between 1000 and 1000
pounds per acre. Oregon produces
more hops than any other state in the
Union. BY far the greater part of the
hops raised have been consumed In
the breweries of the country, but they
nre also used in pharmaceutical prep
arations. The present one-half Of !
per cent beer contains hops, but not
in such large quantities as In beers
Of tbe larger alcoholic content. And
then II Is not likely that the kind Of
beer permitted under the prohibi;ory
INV will appeal largely to the drinkers
of old-time beer. 1t seems certain
that the demand for hops will fall on
greatly.

PAINTED BY GREAT ARTISTS

olrul. Reminder Of Ancient Time,

oIrdle Reminder Of Ancient Times.
Girdles of metal, adorned with
brilliant ornaments, now quite COM
monty used largely for purposes of
ornamentation In women's dress, is q
reminder, or the revival Of custom
of ancient times, when they were
worn by both men and women to con-
fine to the person their long flowing
garments. They were not always Of
metal, but often Of linen or leather.
The girdle also served as the support
Of weapons, utensils, bags or pockets,
etc. In the Middle ages books were
sometimes bound with strip Of fiexi-
BILE stuff hanging from one end Of the
volume, which. could be drawn through
the g,rdle and secured.
Among some people, even in this
day, the girdle IL put to practical
use. Being large and loose, the scab-
bard Of q sword or long dagger Is
passed through the girdle instead Of
being hung from it, hook or pro-
jecting button serving to bold it in
place.

Chinese Wear Stoves.

Chinese women wear practically the
same clothes in winter as in summer.
In the most severe weather, however,
they wear heating baskets under their
cloaks.
These baskets are plain wicker ones,
such as we use for trash. Inside the
baskets charcoal warmers are placed.
They will radiate heat for hours.
The charcoal is mixed with chemi-
Gals that generate oxygen. and thus
the charcoal will burn constantly, even

Lamb
Lamb is a wholesome meat, highly
digestible, very paltable and nu-
tritious when properly prepared. 1t
gives variety to the meat diet, and
is q welcome change from beef and
pork.
Lamb is an economical meat to
buy-a whole forequarter. weighing
about eight or nine pounds, including
the neck, breast, chuck or shoulder,
and shank. may be purchased at
one time, and easily handled in the
average home at this time of the
year.
Some people think that lamb has a
woody" taste. They have probably
eaten lamb from which the "fell," or
outside skin, has not been removed.
This fell" is tough and oily. and
should always be taken off.
Lamb should be roasted in a very
hot oven until thoroughly scared;
