The mnnner In which this unusual char
acter of decoratlo'i Is made to conform to the
couviv.it Innal architectural forms made neces
sary by the classical dcslcn of the 'buildings
Is , In Itself , a most Interesting feature of
this work. On the Machinery ami Klectrlcity
ImlMliiK a nust attractive form of orna-
iiifntiitinn Is used ulong the cornice crowning
t'it > cleur story , COR wheels with Intermedi
ate small pinions Interlock nrounj the main
front ami ends of the building. The spandrels
over the lower \\iniiows are bordered with
miniature Incandescent lamps , and the mat.-

their use tl'C various appliances peculiar to
these sciences are utilized to a id to the
beamy or the structure. The top cf this
building will be crowned by groups of statu
ary recently described at length in the&c
columns , the central Idea being to symbolize ,
by tlicsp groups the battle of man with the
forces of nature ami his victory. The entire
building will be a series of yellow tones ,
glowing more Intense as they reach the top ,
ctilivlnatltiK In the solden statuary which
will surmount the whole.
The vealth and abundance derived from
agriculture will lie shown in the richness of
ornamentation of the Agricultural building.
The panels above the principal columns
represent a bull's head gracefully festojiied
on either side with garlanls of corn , wheat
vegetables ami hulls. The names of those
who have been patrons of agriculture or who
have made notable Inventions In thin flel'
of labor n\lll be Inscribed upon the panels in
t'le frieze. The great semi-circular entrance
dime will he richly ilcccr.itoil In color. On
cither side will bo figures lepresentlng the
"digger" and the "sower , " taken from Mil

arches will be relieved by festoons of corn ,
beets , tomatoes , radishes , potatoes , apples ,
Vears. peaches and other products of the soil ,
while above them will appear the figure of
C'cres , the god less of agriculture. Medallions
of different barnyard towls. and the nation's

An exposition , open to the world , has re
cently closed In Sweden which has attracted
hut little attention from the press of the
I'nltnl States. U originated with much the
same purpose ns that of 'thn traumnlsNlsslppI
country , to act forth the agricultural and
manufacturing resources of the country nml
to show Its progress In the arts and sci
ences. Thu principal exhibitors were Sweden
S'eirwny , Denmark , ( Jermnny Hussla and
Finland. The exposition wag open from May
IB to October 1 ami proved to be an un
qualified success , financially and In other
ways. I
Mrs. Frank lUtrninn of this city spent the
summer at the home of her father , who oc
cupies a high government position In Stockholm
helm , She attended the exposition frequently
during her visit there and states that she
reccl-cd great pleasure and profit In studying
the exhibits. Ill speaking of the' exposition
Mrs. llurniau said : "Tho greatest eklll and
most painstaking labor wcro upent In pre
paring the grounds and buildings and n large
number of workmen were employed on the
site for three years. H was called the Stockholm
helm exposition , nml fiOO.OOO crowns were
advanced by that city for HH erection. The
Swedish government appropriated 1,000.000
crowns more , equivalent In all to about
$ .100,000 , assuring the success of the exposi
tion. At the close the treasury showed a bal
ance of a.000,000 crowns , or about $1,000.000.
"The people of Sweden had no direct
financial Interest In the exposition and had
no volco In ltn management or share In Its
stock. The management was In charge of a
board of directors appointed by the crown ,
nt the head of which wns a director gen
eral. The latter was General Taub. a high
ofllclal of the city government of Stockholm.
The affairs under his direction were con
ducted In a satisfactory and buslness-llkc
way and ho received the general congratu
lations of his countrymen.
LOCATED ON AN ISLAND.
convenient and well located site for
the exposition wns secured. Stockholm , ns
you know. Is situated upon eleven Islands ,
and the grounds were laid out upon one of
them not far from the heart of the city. So
the water problem was already solved and
CH well as answering practical purposes
Lake Malar proved one of thu greatest at
tractions of the exposition. The lake is of
fresh water , separated only by locks from
the Baltic scu. U furnished also the chief
route -transportation. . Ltrge ferryboats
made frequent trips acrces from the city , n
distance of three-quarters of a mile. Most
of the vlsltois used the boats , because of
their directness and better time. Another
way to reach the grounds lay around the
mainland on the street c.uu and across the
Charles XII bridge. The distance by this
route was three miles. With double moans
of getting back and forth the crowds were
able to reach the grounds without discom
fort.
"Although the exposition had not been
prepared with that In view , the twenty-fifth
rnniversary of the .ascension of Ocar II to
the tine o occurred at the very height ot the
festivities and was made a great occasion.
A number of the royal families of Europe
were represented there on Out day , Septem
ber 18 and It was made the climax of the
exposition program. Stockholm declared a
general holiday and theking wis honored
by different tcistlmcinlals of congratulation
and respect. In the evening a grand parade
In fanciful array psrised through the streets ,
gay with bunting and banners. The citizens
lad turned out 'ci a boly and it took three
hours for the throng to pass by. The king
took the greatest Interest In the exposition
and aided greatly In Its EUCCCSS. lie bulli
a handsome roj-il pavilion for his por.iono !
nnd olllclal use and ntjo ! had a hunting lodge
'in a thickly wooded corner of the grounds.
FEATIMIES OF TI1R EXPOSITION.
"Ihoro was no irurvcl'of engineering skill
on the grounds except In the conatinctlon o :
the Industrial and Forestry hall , the 'World
building. ' H was the individual feature of
the exposition ar.tl appeared er. ) mr.t of the
souvenirs that wcro for sale. It was ibulll
on. a gigantic plan , with a great dome in the
center supporting four very high and E'lemlei
towers reared about it at the corners of u
square. The tops of thepc towers could be
visited and a view was l.ad far out In the
Ilaltlc and a Icng distance Inland. Forestry

the government museum , which contalnc'l
the most popular exhibit on the grounds. It
differed in its construction from the other
buildings. bclr.g of gray srnstono ! and * meant
to be a permanent Institution. In It were
I'iro and valuable pointings and Industrial
nnd warlike relics accumulated by the gov
ernment during many centuries. In another
part of the grounds was a reproduction of
old Stockholm. The greatest pains had been
taken In Its preparation and the old city of
fiOO years ago was faithfully shown. The
ibullding iHt apart for the army headquarters
had for Its doorposts two steel projectiles of
the largest E'ZO ' Standing on duty about the
door werea number of wax soldiers which
were so lifelike that they dally received the
Inquiries of those wishing Information. In
Its Fisheries and Arts buildings the exposi
tion resembled those In America.
"The expedition IMS already proved'of great

We. hcir a great deal ufoout California and
Us various climates , but only those who
have been there can tell both sides of the
olory. Dr. Seymour , who has recently re
turned from San Francisco , glviw his opin
ion of various objects of Interest regarding
that city.
"It IH the largest city In the country of
Its 'age , " says the doctor , "and while fine
structures do not prevail there , as In many
eastern cities , yet rents nro high and every
body < = oems to he busy. The streets remind
ono of Chicago during the World's fair.
Market , the principal street In San Fran-
cisLO , Is very wide and has four street car
lines running the length of the business
portion , which Is nearly two miles. Along
the entire distance storerooms twenty-live
feet wide bring from $200 to $300 per month ,
which glvia some Idea of San FrancUco a
a retail town. The streets are nearly al
ways crowded , particularly in the afternoon
and evening. The general appearance of the
buildings Is ithat of an old city , as any
structtiro unless built of stone begins to
look old In a very few years after con
structed. This Is 'duo ' to the damp weather
ami 'tho alt sea wltvls which In some cases
will cover an entire wall with moss , nnd In
all cases Is ruinous to paint. I , for ono ,
camuit see how Sun Francisco can e-ver bo
anything 'but ' a great city , for It posr-esscs
so many natural advantages as well as
favorable Miniate , and 1.3 conatantly building
uj n larger trade with foreign countries ,
Japan taking the lead. " The doctor has a
number of Htllo souvenirs which were Im-
partwl frini Japan , wares which could not
ho duplicated In ithls part of the country
for twlen the money they cost there. It
indeed they could be obtained at all.
"Chinatown has often been spoken of , "
ho continued , "and so much ha been said
nbout It that I hardly 'think It worth while
to nJd any more. You can hardly blame
San Francisco pcr-iile for heartily disliking
their Chinese neighbors when you have
once visited their qunrtcr.3. The scenes thnt
ono encomi'tors In taking a trip through
Chinatown arc disgusting In the extreme-
ami ne/tlilng tha't has e\er been put In print
would hnK describe the drpravltv that pre
vails In that section of the city , nnd largely
due to the seductive cffeel of the opium
ONLY THR WOIITHLKSS CLASS.
"fiuslncES men In San Francisco , as a rule ,
are very bitter toward the Chinese , as the
Mongollar Is surely monrpollzlng certain
branches of trade , and the advantages they
bring to this country are very few. as 1 hc-
lie-ve they are the most clanish nation In
the world. The most of their vegetables , fish ,
etc. , are all Imported from China , nnd after
they have gained enough money they return
to China , and only the most worthless class
of them , who arc not worth enough money
to go back , remain In this country. Work
which Is done here by honest , hardworking
girls , trying to make a living , is done there
by the Chinese. The Japanese , however ,
have built up quite a line of commerce be
tween .their country and this , and they have
some beautiful stores , bith In the 'wholesale '
and recall way. They are clean intolligcnt
and become American citizens , and their dis
like to the Chinese Is as marke.1 as that of
the Americans.
"California is called the Flower state and
Is very appropriately named. Golden Gate
1-ark Is one of the most beautiful pieces of
terra firma f have ever had tile pleasure of
visiting. Here you find In abundance all the
llowors you arc familiar with and many
thousand varieties of which you have never
even heard , unless you nro a botanist. Al
most all of the tropical plants nourish hero
and the winter months seem to bo the moro
favorable for vegetation In general In this
climate. 'Music ' Is provided every Sunday
and 10.000 people scattered through the park
would not give you the Impression of a crowJ
any miore than would 1.000 people In 'Ilans- '
com park , except when they arc congregated
armind the music stand. There Is a large
building provided for children to play In and
a large observatory on the highest point In
the park , which Is reached by a winding
ill He-way and alfords one n magnificent view
of the city , harbor and old Pacific. 'Ihe Cliff
House , of which you have all heard so tnu < h ,
is surely worthy of mention , as it gives ono
a magnificent view of the Pac-lflc ocean. Dur
ing my first visit to the cliff I spent several
hours watching the huii'Ircds of seals which
Inhabit 'the ' 'rocks ' ( called the Seal rocks ) Just
off from the shore. It Is very Interesting to
watch so clumsy an animal make its way
from the water to the highest prints of thcso
rocks.
DISAPPOINTED IN FKUIT.
"Speaking of fruit , one naturally expects
you to be enthusiastic upon this subject , but
I mtibt say that I was < llsapp tinted In this
oarlieular. To be sure we had stiawberrles
every day and more beautiful berries I hive-
never seen tn look at , and although Califor
nia pcoplo declare they are as good a.i the
eastern berries , 1 fall to see It , and In Me *
ticarly loct my ( auto for berries while there
Other fruit is the same ; It d'.os not coiriiare
with the castcin fruit by any means. It
grows largo and 'looks luscious , but lacks the
body and flavor of tfie northern grown fruit.
On ? thing which I rTesuino very few people
mention about California , lint which was > i
very serious matter with mo. were the Ilenn
which you encounter everj where at certain
teasons of the year n id appariNiitly ; on , cer
tain days. You get them on you whllo walk
ing along the streets , In the ntorcs , any
where , and although Callfoin'a ' people tell
you that you will get use to them. It reminds
ino of tile old saying. 'You could get use to
the Inferno If you lived there long eniugh. '
"San Francisco Is not only a good busliR'SS
center , hut It Is a delightful place to visit.
There are many rtMortii around the luy and
the city and county have seme very fine ' ub-
llc buildings. The Hopkins Art IniUituto
which was recently de.natcil to tlie city Is a
flue htruclure and filled wlt'.i objects of art.
located on Kr.mb Hill. The pe Die In Cali
fornia travel and thu fact that only the
smaller per cent of the people living In San
Fi'air'lKco are natives of tiiat country Is cvl-
dcnco that t'.iey are tiavchr's. and It Is cer
tain that I never met a cldts of pcoplo who
thought M > link' < f a long railroad Journey
as they do In ( he west. "
This is what
a prominent physician says : "I
have given my own children the
benefit of very careful study in
the matter of absolute cleanli
ness in bottle feeding. I have
studied the so-called easily-
cleaned nursing bottles , and li
long ago came to the conclusion'
that a little Pcarline would ren
der ordinary nursing bottles thei
safest utensils of them all. I firmly believe that children
properly fed and cleanly fed will avoid the majority of the
difficulties which they encounter during the first two years oft
life. 1 believe that if every feeding bottle was washed with' '
Pcarline , many innocent lives would be saved. "
Surely , this is a matter to interest every mother. Nothing
so thoroughly cleanses an Pearline. wa
