CONSUMPTION

Figures from the United States De-
partment of Internal Revenue furnish
clear evidence of the fact that the con-
sumption of liquor in recent years has
inceased almost beyond belief
These reports reveal that the con-
sumption of distilled liquors increas-
ed from 38,000,000 gallons in the first
year after repeal of prohibition, 1884,
to 75,000,000 gallons in 1885, and to
100,000,000 gallons in 1886; and to
the perfectly appalling total of 449,-
100000 gallons of distilled liquor pro-
duced in 1886, as contrasted with
181 100000 gallons produced in 1914.
The consumption of vinous liquors
shows a similar increase to 47,000,000
gallons in 1886, as compared with
35, 100000 gallons in 1885. The pro-
duction of vinous liquors is also wor-
thy of note in that 100000 gal
Ions were produced in 1914; 91,000,000
in 1885; and in 1886, 170,00o,000
One can realize the increase in rev.
enue which is going into the U. S.
treasury.

Little WalIed-in Cities

Greatest attractions of all in
Ghent, Belgium, are the lay Be
guinages, or nunneries. Only a few
of these can be found in Europe.
Here they are little walled cities
within the city and in them live
some five or six hundred Beguines,
women who take no vows, but re-
tire thus from the world for time.
The little cities of walled-in quiet
are scrupulously tidy and neat, and
each has its little parks, squares
and churches. The Begumes them
selves pay taxes just as other citi-
zens do, and each of them is free to
return to the life and business of
the world at any time. 1t is not un-
common for Belgian women to go to
these nunneries for a few months,
spending their days in making lace
and carrying out religious devotions,
then to return home to their old
household tasks.

Greek and Roman Houses
Profciently Arranged

The arrangement of rooms in
both the Greek and Roman house
was carried to a point of prof.
cheney, that has rarely, if ever been
excelled, says a writer in the New
York Sun. In every respect, except
for electricity, central heating and
mechanical devices, the better
houses of these two earlier civiliza-
tions had about everything which
the more recent house has. With
few extra servants, we could live
just as comfortably in their homes
as in our own.
Heating was a problem, but both
the Greek and the Roman met
changes in seasons ingeniously. In
the up-to-date house in the time of
Augustus there were enough rooms
to follow the sun around the house.
Romans, who were the technolo-
gists of antiquity, reduced the
proper exposure for the different
rooms to a formula; the special pur-
pose to which each room served, re-
quired different exposure, suited
to convenience, and to the position
of the sun. The principles which
they set down can be, and often are
applied in the orientation Of the
later house.
Winter dining rooms and bath
rooms were in the southwest part
of the house for the reason that
fbeV mead tba ayapinp 1iobt and
also because the setting sun fac
ing them with all its splender, but
with abated heat, lends a gentle
warmth to that quarter in the eve-
ming" Bedrooms and Libraries had
an eastern exposure, because their
purposes required the morning
light; furthermore, books in such
Libraries were less subject to decay.
If libraries were on the south,
books would soon be ruined by
worms and mildew.
