room cabin on a lake, and, when
I moved into it last fall. set
the house on two layers of cinder
blocks. My friends tell me the
cinder block will last only about
two years. They claim that
such blocks do not last below
grade.
Answer-If the block is made
by a reliable manufacturer and
the proportion Of cement and
cinders is standard, I see no
reason why it would not last for
many years.
Rusty Metal Tile.
Question: have metal tile in
the bathroom which required
enameling. After this had been
done, tiny rust marks appeared
within a year or SO. Is there
anything I can do to prevent
this?
Answer-Remove all Of the
present finish down to the metal;
then wash the surface with tur-
pentine and fine steel wool.
When rust has been removed,
apply a coat of rust-inhibitive
paint. allowing plenty of time
for thorough drying. Finish
with couple of coats Of enamel
undercoater and a coat of top
quality enamel.
Stains on Tile.

tile floor in the bathroom. The
colors are light green and gray.
I have never been able to get
some of the stains off the tiles

The SIS million valuation is
based in part on the sale in 1888
OF the Codex Sinaiticus, now in
the British Museum, for half a
million dollars. That volume is
one of several fourth and fifth
century Bible manuscripts in
Greek.
Vellum Manuscript
The Yonan Codex is vellum
manuscript of 227 leaves, meas
uring about 8 inches by inches.
The writing is in quite legible
black ink in single columns of
% to 81 lines on each page. The
handwriting is evidently the
work of one scribe, it is said.
The manuscript begins with
Matthew 9:35 and ends with
Hebrews 1879. It does not in

script will be an invaluable aid
to biblical scholars. He ex-
planned that:

valuable as a primary source in
text criticism"
Dr. Shapley said that, while
no startling changes in the
present text of the Bible can be
expected to result from the
publication of the Yonan Codex
1t should throw valuable light on
variant readings.
For example, he said the
Aramaic text supports the
English translation, Keep us
