THREE KINDS OF CEMENT.
Wertland, the Natural and Rusarian •r Mas Cement. There are avallahle far conatrw* tlon purposes Portland, matural and puzsolaa or alag cemeata. Omly Port land cement Is duitahla Car reinforced concrete Portland cement la the flatly pat verlsed product roorittag frees tbs calcination to iacipiaat furioa of aa Intimate mixture of pr*»erty proper tloned varying withla comparatively marrow limits. Portland earnest should he used la reinformed concrete construction sad any construction that will ha subjeet to shocks or vibrations or stresses other them direct compression. Natural earnest is the flaaky pah verlsed produet reeultlag from «ko oat clnation of aa argillaceous Umeatoae at a temperature oaly suAatoat to drive off the carbonic sold gas. While the limestone must have a certain composition this eempeetties awy ▼ary la much wider limits thaa la the ease of Portias# cement Natural cement dost not develop Its strength aa quickly, nor is K as uniform la composition as Portland eamsat Natural cement may be used la massive masonry where weight rathei than strength is the essential feature Where economy is the governing factor a comparison may be made between the use of natural cement and a leaner mixture of Portland cement that will develop the earns strength. Puzsolaa or alag cement la the flaw ly pulverised product resulting from grinding a mechanical mixture of granulated basic bleat furnace alag and hydrated lima. Pussolan cement la not nearly so strong, uniform or reliable aa Portland or natural cement, la not extensively used and never In Important work; It should he used only for foundation work underground where it Is not exposed to air or running water.
Why Steel la Painted Red.
"Why is Iron or steal invariably painted red?” Tbla question has been asked by scores of men and women recently, who have walked over Huagerford Bridge on the way to Waterloo Station from Charing Cross. Workmen have been busy for some time painting tha steel work of the structure a beautiful carmine. In America It has been noticed that most of the skyscraper steel frames are first painted red and than some other color. Tbla la alee the ease with steal bridges and Ironwork of all kinds. One of the workmen on toe Huagerford bridge Job was asked why the bridge was being painted red. "Oh, it’s not toe color that oounts," ha arid, "but Ufa what the paint la composed ot This la rad lead, sad any steal man will toll you that red lead la tha best preservative against dampness and ruat Becently a dark green lead has coma Into use as a first coat for Iron and steal, but, after all, red lead seems to hold its own as a covering to preserve steel work. When the red lead la once on It the structure can be printed in any ether color to suit the taste.—The red lead lasts years.”
How's This for Mud?
Of all the yarns that ever earn* down the line regarding deep mud. the following should be entitled to the blue ribbon. It happened in where mud originated, / A man was walking along the roadside one summer day and noticed a fairly good looking hat out in the road. Reaching out with his cane, he gave it a cut and was startled to hear a voice exclaim: “Here, what the deuce are you doing?" Then he made the astonishing 41acovery that the owner of the headpiece was under the het, up te hie ears In mud. "Great heavens!" exclaimed the man who had hit the hat "Is that mud ns deep aa that?" "De«#!” cried the victim. “Why. man alive, I'm standing ea a load es hay!"
An Onion Soup Curs.
The great dean es a greet prefeesion when teo merry Is kept la bed by his wife tor two or three days aad fed on onion soup. All the ahuttere are kept closed aad the rooms darkened until perfeot recovery te usual gayety and balaaca comes. The pair have stood many triumphs, many narrows gad many honors. It is not past belief that George D. Prentice or Teen Marshall had still lived on such good wifely devotion.
Importance of Proper Breathing.

SWEET ARE THE THOUGHTS.
Sweet are the thoughts that sa»vor of content. The quiet mind is richer than a crown. „ Sweet are the nights in careless slumber spentThe poor estate scorns fortune'll * angry frowh. Such sweet content such minds, such sleep, such, bliss, Beggars enjoy when princes oft do miss! / The homely house that harbors quiet rest, The cottage that affords no , pride or care, The mean that ’grees with country music best, The sweet consort of mirth and music’s fare—, Obscured life sets down a type of bliss: A mind content both crown and kingdom is.
