Edith Brown Klrkwood tells In Col

trrites:
The awakening really came through
the purchase of two shanks ot ham. One
had been ordered over the telephone.
Jfor this we had been charged ninety
cents.
Two weeks later, at the market. I
paid forty-fiKht cents In cash for a
shank of the same cite and quality. For
the "convenience" ot the telephone In
this one Instance I had paid almost dou
ble the amount ot my purchase.
Under the oyitem of convenience the
meat and grocery nWa for our family of
Devon never had been les than flS a

Only recently I went to the market and
atked for a leg ot lamb, setting the
limit of my price at J1.50, The butcher
brought out a tempting piece ot meat
which he weighed.
"I am sorry," he explained with a
smile, "but this Is a bit heavier than the
piece you asked for. It Is an excellent
leg of lamb, though, and will cost you
only H.W.'"
"Yes," I answered, "I know It Is a
good cut but It Is' larger than I need.
Select a piece for me- which will not
cost more than tt.to."
He turned, cut from the piece In his
hand enough to have amounted, per
haps, to throe chops, re welched the leg.
and added;
This will cost .M."
I took It. Instead of paying forty-two
cents more than I had wanted to pay, I
paid only four cents additional and had

BIG CATHEDRAL IN. DANGER
Settllnv Walla and Unstable IMrra
Threatens St. Paul's In
London.
The' London corresDendent nf th Km,
York Tribune, referlng to recent reports
of cracking and settling ot the walls of
St. raul's cathedral, outlines the result
of the investigation of the building by
architects and engineers. He says: One
result of these Investigations has been to
show that the foundation was about as
poor alone to hold the tremendous weight
of masonry as could hftve been found
any place In England away from the
ssaay sea Deacn.
St. Paul's Is, In fact, built on a thin
layer ot potter's clay overlying about
twenty-five feet of sand and gravel In
strata of varying thickness, and part
of this composite seems to be quicksand.
At any rate, from the nature ot thts
portion of the subsoil, every fresh hole
In the vicinity ot the cathedral means the
slipping away of a little more of the
foundation of the building; the quickness
with which the undermining takes place
depending on the distance ot the excava
tion from the cathedral walls.
The net result of building such a great
structure on a foundation or this klhd
has been the gradual subsidence ot the
walls, until the cathedral la now In real
danger ot destruction. In the first year
after the building was finished there was
a very marked subsidence of the walls,
but this was ascribed at the time to the
settling which takes place in all new
buildings. Since then, however, there has
been a steady sinking ot the walls, and
hi the last ten years It has been so
marked that It constitutes a menace ot
such Importance that here has even been
alk ot closing the building to the public.
The domo now leans several Inches to the
southwest, which would not bo In Itself
cause for uneaalneas were It not for the
fact that the building Is not at rest, as
the continual breaking of cement tell
tales proves.
And thts leads to the criticisms on
Wren's work that the Investigations
have brought out. It has been found
that the whole superstructure Is literally
laced together with Iron ties, and that
the building Is so delicately poUed.that
It It were not for these ties it would
probably not be standing today. Not
only ta the foundation almost the worst
that could be found, but the piers, in
stead ot being solid masonry, are only
thin shells of Portland stone filled In
with rubble, and the header stones, which
were lnierted tu bind them together,
have snapped In settlement and have
long since ceased to be ot any valuo.
The weight of the dome on the top of
the piers Is Si.000 tons, which means a
pressure of eleven tons a foot over their
area. Even if the piers were of solid
Portland stone they would havo a load
to tho limit that they could carry. But
they ore merely cased with Portland
stone, and the core Is rubble, which has
disintegrated, wlille the mortar that
Wren used has perished. As a matter ot
fact, these piers caused trouble as 'soon
as the building was finished and flaws
caused by tho pressure hod to be re
paired. it Is the consensus of opinion that,
with a foundation of flowing sand and
piers "1th a disintegrated rubble core,
only the utmost care can preserve the
building and that at best tor only a com
paratively short time.
LESS SPEED MORE SAFETY
Roadbed nnd Kqalpment, In Most
Cases, Uuequul to Heavy
Stralu.
The quarterly report of the Interstate
Commerce commission dealing particu
larly with railroad accidents, is encour
aging, although the number ot killed and
Injured Is alarmingly high. During the
three months ending March SI, 1U per
sons were killed ami 3,633 Injured In train
accldenti, derailments, collisions, ete.
Bad as this record may seem, It Is not
so bad us that ot the corresponding
period ot 191S. when 100 more persons
were killed and 1.1ST more injured than
during the first quarter ot 1SU. The accl
Onu affecting the traveling public con
stats! r istly of derailments and col
lisions. The commission reports that de
fective roadways and defective equip
ment caused more than 70 per cent ot
all the derailments on all the railroads
In the United States for the period con
sidered. Of derailments due to defective
roadway more than SO pur cent wero
caused bv broken rails.
One explanation Is that roadbeds and
equipment are not so welt built as they
were formerly or that they are put to a
heavier strain. Some experts of nafOnal
reputation Incline to the latter view. The
strain Is Caused by heavier weights and
faster speed and of these two causes
the latter is far greater. Year by year
heavier railway engines and cars are
used. It Is no wonder that rails break and
roadbeds sag when train after train,
weighing hundreds ot tons, goes hurtling
on at tremendous speed. Engineers have
said that an ordinary passenger train
drawing eight or ten coaches. Including
two or three Pullmans and a diner, when
traveling at fifty or sixty miles an hour,
causes a terrific strain on rails and ties,
not to speak ot wheels and flanges. In
