Big Department Stores Are Managed
Like an Army
This is like an army the manager
explained when I went to him to as
certain by what system he handled
the big department store The as-
jg sistant managers are the generals the
department heads the colonels the
floorwalkers majors ana so on down
reaches this ofiic
sis I am responsible to the firm If a
girl ties a bundle wrong or there is a
dispute with a customer I am directly
responsible although I have probably
known nothing of the incident 1 pass
the actual administration of authority
and responsibility right down the line
until the person who is at fault feels
it personally Doubtless hundreds of
things happen in this store every day
of which I have no knowledge and I
dont need to know about them So
long as the man to whom I have dele
gated the authority delegates it in
turn to some one who knows how to
use it properly there is no reason why
I should interfere
This is the way it should be I
should uot consider that we had an
fective system if it
and Miss Anna Sipe went out and
system must be so
took dinner with them Tuesday and

TH L10MrS ROAR
An Appallinj Sound That Brings Ter
ror to the Traveler
Once in the lion country you learn
the real reason why he Is termed the
king of beasts Ue looks It
there is the terror he casts over all tha
brute creation about him And as fot
terror there is one feature of life in
East Africa that the traveler never
forgets the lions roaring To me no
other sound in nature is more awe in
spiring morn appalling especially il
heard at really dose range or anion
hills where the echo resounds In it 3
rolling double bus Coutrary to he
common idea Hous do not confine their
thunderous calls to me night only
Frequently in open daylight one may
be startled by a sudden outburst
They are a uoisy lot too At night I
have heard a bund keep up the dire
chorus for hours at a time a blood
curdling concert that Lrings to mind
every tale fanciful or true of their
daring of their fierce rapacity aud
might It seems still further to have
rin added dread fulness when one is ly
ing within the frail walls of n tent
with only its cauras between one and
the formidable musician
Listen now There goes oue boom
ing in lite distance a roaring obligate
that breaks into from six to a doaesi
calls From the first to the fourth cu
volume usually Increases then it dfc
down At very close qua iters one
hears the roar melt gradually into a
purr itself diminishing to a gnwling
discontented mumble that lasts for
about half a minute or there is the
other sound equally menacing a soft
and suggestive crunching noise as
though the beast had already settled
to a grewsome meal The lions voice
is mighty as mighty as his strength
Forget his habits his love of carrion
and his daylight turn of cowardice and
you have the Impression of ft king of
beasts a real royalty along the brute
creation Everybodys Magazine

Eating Away an Island
Strength is not a thing usually con
nected with maidenhair fern yet if its
roots have uot sufficient room they
will break the pot in which the plant
grows Blades of grass will force the
curbstones between which they spriig
up out of their place aud in a single
night a crop of small mushrooms have
lifted a large stone Indeed plants
have been known to break the hardest
rocks The island of Aldabra to the
northwest of Madagascar is becoming
smaller and smaller through the acticn
of the mangroves that grow along the
foot of the cliffs They eat their way
into the rock in all directions and into
the gaps thus formed the waves force
their way In time they will probably
reduce the island to pieces London

0RI6HULLY B01LT BY HEHRY Hi
Structure Where Body of Great Brit
ains Late Monarch Will Be En
tombed Is Remarkable For Its Beau
ty and Grace Long Known as
seys Tomb House
The Albert Memorial chapel at Wind
sor castle Eifgland where the body of
the late King Edward VII of Great
Britain will eventually le buried was
so named by Queen Victoria as a me
morial to the prince consort it was
built by Henry III who dedicated it
to his -favorite saint Edward the Con
fessor Tile building is remarkable for
its beauty and grace and a great deai
of Henry Ills work still exists in the
leaver section of the walls but the
npper part was rebuilt in 1501 3 by
Henry VII
Henry VIII gave the chapel still un
finished to Cardinal Wolsev and it
was known is Wolseys tomb house
ftfr inany years The great cardinal
engaged the Florentine sculptor Bene
detto to construct for him a magnifi
cent tomb of marble and gilt bronze
with a recumbent ofRsy at the top
Tiie rich bronze work of Wolseys
tomb was ripped off and melted by
order of the commonwealth in 1G42
the metal being sold In 1803 the black
marble sarcophagus shorn of its
bronze ornaments was moved from
Windsor and placed as a monument
orer Admiral Nelsons grave in St
Pauls cathedral
Mausoleum For Royalty
Although Wolsevs tomb house
was roofed in and used for holding
mass by James II the stone vaulting
was not completed until recent times
when the entire chapel was refitted bv
i Sir Gilbert Scott under command of
the line Only matters which are ont1ueen iciona aim renamed its m

failure reacts directly upon him Thus lei brother of the present king of

above him- until the responsibility
In the final t gorges chapel Windsor where
the kings body will be placed tempo
rarily ranks next to Westminster ab
bey as a mausoleum for royalty al
though Edward IV was the first of
the kings of England to be buried
there lie it was who built the pres
ent chapel in 1473 after razing almost
to the ground the earlier chapel on the
same spot which had been completed
and filled with stained glass by Ed
ward III in 130
Edward IV left directions on his
deathbed that a magnificent tomb
should be erected over his body with
an effigy of himself in silver All that
now remains of this once costly monu
ment is a part of the wrought iron
grille which formerly surrounded the
tomb said to be one of the most elab
orate and skillfully wrought pieces of
ironwork in the world This grille was
afterward removed from the north
aisle to the north side of the
Fine Example of Architecture
The next king to follow Edward IV
into the mausoleum in St Georges
chapel was Henry VIII who ordered
that his body should be laid beside
that of Jane Seymour in a wonderful
bronze and marble tomb That tomb
was never completed and what exist
ed of its metal work was probably
melted down by the commonwealth
for no trace of it now remains In
the same vault which contains the
t
bodies of Edward IV Jane Seymour
and Henry VIII lie the bodies of Hen
ry VI Charles I George III and his
queen George IV the queen of Ed-
tt o TV f lirt Dpinnnec Wil
uiu if - HUlWil VJU1UWIIV Ill
Ham IV and his queen the Duke of
Kent and other members of the royal
family
The Chapel of St George is one of
the finest examples of perpendicular
architecture In England and is consid
ered finer In design than the other roy
al chapels notably Kings college at
Cambridge and that of Henry VII at
Westminster The nave of St George
was vaulted about the year 1490 but
the choir groining was not completed
until 1507 The hanging pendants
from the fan vaulting of the choir
mark a later development of style
which forms a strong contrast with
the severer lines of the earlier nave
vault
Barge Built of Concrete
It will astonish most people to learn
that a boat built of concrete will not
only float but has a greater carrying
capacity is more durable and even
lighter than a strongly constructed
wooden boat The Panama canal com

a big barge built of re enforced con
crete which weighs C0000 pounds and
two others will soon be finished These
vessels it is said are unaffected by sea

THE RED
DAB OF DEATH jj --
fragic Mark on the Steol Skeleton o
the Skyscrapor
See thai big blob of scarlet paltil
said the engineer as lie pointed to a
girder high up In the skeleton of tin
new skyscraper That red spot mean
that one of the men working on Hit
building was killed by the girdpt
sweeping him off the structure whlit
being put in position
The visitor craned his neck and sun
a rough jwtch of vermilion mint on
one of the floor girders up on the sis
teenth story It must lie a daugerou
life he said to his engineering friend
Yes Those men up there are work
ing under the chance of Instant dealt
at any moment Theyll walk alon
the topmost girder 300 feet above tiu
sidewalk a IHtle path of slippery iron
five inches wide and will lean out
ward against the wind You or 1
couldnt do it for a second
Now and again heres an accident
A chap slips A worker gets hit by a
swinging girder and flung off
or map takes an incautious step and
falls off into eternity The men work
ing near by do their best to get at hn
if he manages to grab the girder he
falling from and there are some swift
and reckless races with death to ge
to their comrade at any cost in the five
or ten seconds allowed them whiie
strong fingers are sliding away from a
slippery beam flange If the word
happens and the man falls in spite o
their efforts then they apply the dnl
of red paint and the ironworkers call
it a day They dout speak much of
the mau that is gone as a rule Hes
soon forgotten The men consider it
fate
Youd tbink by the way went on
the engineer that the higher up these
men worked the more careful tbeyd
become They arent particularly care
ful but they do guard against the
hypnotism of height One of the men
working ou a high girder gets para
lyzed now aud againby a sudden fear
that holds him motionless and stili on
his iron beam
The men look out for this sort of
thing and the remedy is to distract
hiA attention by a rough blow on the
back or in some eases by exciting him
to a user through any means in their
pop en When the man gets fighting
w d he is freed front the paralysis of
terror or whatever you may choose to
call it He gets up from his girder to
iie a rush for the other fellow to
Co him up and the moment he is safe
be is restrained by the other men
Whenever you see a skyscraper
framework concluded the engineer
each dab of scarlet paint on the iron
means that some man has come to his
death Every skyscraper and every
bridge is the monument to some little
group of unknown workers laboring
at dizzy heights and dallying with snd
den death as part of their days work
Ntw York prebs
A Poverty Stricken Queen
Partly owing to the fact that she
was wedded to an avaricious king and
partly because she was generous with
the little money allowed her Eliza
lwth of York queen of Henry VII
spent but a -small amount for dress
She was very often in debt and the
sums she spent were ridiculously
small 20 shillings 5 being the great
est amount expended at any cue time
Uer gowns were mended and turned
and new waists were made for them
as is shown by the record of bills paid
to hoi tailor These bills prove that
she wore her for a long time
for her gowus were obliged to be new

princess of the great house of
tagenel she wore shoes costing but 24

This restaurant advertised a dinner
