the bulling had risen to the sixth floor
by Saturday noon, when work for the week
ceased.
As there, are but twelve floors to the new
homo of the railroad this week's accom
plishment makes th work half done In the

occur he will be able to finish the steel
skeleton by leceinber Ifi. In the meantime
cement workers, carpenter and briek
layeru are pushing right along with the
work In the basement and first floor of
the building.
The Burlington freight depot Is also com
ing along speedily, tv sections of steel
work of 180 feet length each having been
finished and the third section promised by
next Wednesday. Carpenters and brick
layer are following along the work after
the steel men and by the 5th of December
nothing but Inside work will be left to b
done.
The doors and windows ot the building,
which are a greater essential in thla build
ing than in most structure, are on the
way.' By December IB it is expected freight
will be moving through the new building.
Grading on the terminal and the building of
unloading platforms have, been going on
some time.
Another railroad structure pisnnised by
December 15 Is the post office station, where
work ha been rushed to the limit. The

the colonial style. There are many mon
Miusltles of designs passed off as colonial
architecture which have little claim to the
style and tend to give It a bad name in
some localities. Why some people will put
tip unattractive, fioorly designed homes,
when It would cost no more to make them
beautiful, Is one of these unexpialnable
ecentr h it ies in human nature. Borne peo
ple go through life saying and doing dis
agteeable thlnK when kind words and
deeds would make more happiness fur
themselves and all those with whom they
come In contact. There Is an influence for
good In beautiful Kurrouiidlugs, nut elabor
ate or gaudy, but naturally attractive and
pleasing to the eye. Some physicians claim
that beautiful surroundings ward off dis
eases, but It Is probably only those ail
ments which have their origin in perverted
mental states.
An architect Is, therefor something of a
doctor, the kind who prevent Instead of
cures. A scientist has stated that "half
the disease are in our minds and the other
half In our houses." An architect as a
doctor uses as his principle remedies, fresh
air, sunshine, sanitary Condition and pleas
ant surroundings. If pleasant surroundings
remove the diseases of the mind and a
chief remedy
for other ail
ments. Isn't he then a good doctor? cjuod
brat demonstrandum:
There Is another reason, not often given,
to explain the endurance of the colonial
style for typical American homes It can
tiuely be called "The Patriotic Sly It." The
American color alwas look the best when
draped on a colonial home, because tlicV
are colonial colors. The flag was created
In the colonial period and Is distinctly
colonial In Its design and color and there
Is harmony In a colonial home decorated
with the American emblem created by
Hetsey lloss and first carried In triumph
by Washington.
A tjpical American home Invariably has
a large family porch to which in recent
year has been added the outdoor sleeping
porch tarchltect as doctor again). Porches
are little used in Europe. The European

An analysis of the table show some surprising thing. In Chicago and New York
there were fair gains, particularly for th latter city, a building has been only moder
ately active In th metropolis, while in Brooklyn and Philadelphia there was a fall

history of the city, permit having been taken out fur the construction of 1.110 build
ings involving a total cost ot 110,077,300 a against 986 building aggregating In cost
!7,tM).44 for the earn month a year ago, an Increase of 33 per cent. In New York
(her was an increase of I per cent, while in Brooklyn there was a loss of 47 per cent
and In Philadelphia per cent. The Paclf lo coast continue to make a good showing,
the figures fur FeeUle having been eiceeded but once prior to this In the history ot

(lie Uttllar Far mmr.
By building Its lines throutb. lands then worth leas than
$6.00 per acre, the Union Pacific Railroad has aided to !
creasing the value of those lands many-fold.
The assessed value of all property In Nebraska has la
creased from 171.77,593 In 1U0 to 398,9S(,81 la 10,
There has been no more Important factor than the Ne
braska railroads In creating this enormous wealth.
The resultant prosperity baa Increased the value) ot the)
railroads.
In 1900 the Union Paotflo Railroad paid Uzea la the
State of Nebraska amounting to $199, 855. 44, In 1909 tt
paid $578,112.44.
Progress for the Union Paclflo means progress for the
whole state. Every mile of additional track laid, every
train or station, creates ' wealth, which Is not shared only
by the Union Paclflo Railroad, but by every citlaen In the
tate of Nebraska.
We bave a book on Nebraska and Its resources which
will be mailed to some friend In the Eaat for the) asking.
