Work on the giant structure in

the world’s fair is progressing well.
Many carloads of the structural
steel have arrived and more is on
the way. The building is the larg

was set aside for its construction.
The government building occupies a
commanding site on a hill in the ex

fair grounds. Southeast of it lies
the high plateau on which yvill be
situated the group of state build

building a great flower garden is
laid out on either side of the flight
of steps, 100 feet from side to side,
leading to the main entrance. These
gardens are on a slope so that the

By virtue of a power of sale oontained
in a deed to seoui e debt made, executed
, and'delivered bv T. N. Bowman of said
county, to English, Johnston & Compa

space in the center of the flight Of
steps, and the entire flight is to be
richly adorned with statues. Other
means of reaching the level of the
government building will be a series
of zig-zag roads, with gentle in
clines, 30 feet wide.
The general style of the building
is Pseudp classic. The central pa
vilion with the colonnade on either
si.de, forms a portico 15 feet wide
and 524 feet long, 60 feet above the
general level of the other buildings,
from whioh a splendid view is per
mitted the visitor..
An attic, 15 feet in height, sur
mounts the colonnade of Ionic col
umns, and this is richly embellished
with statues. The dome surmount
ing the central' pavilion is 100 feet
in diameter, and in a general way is
designed after the Pantheon at
Rome. The top of the quadriga
which surmounts it is 174 feet
above the ground. The soulpture
displayed is symbolic of. the repub
lic and the artB of peace.
The building was designed by
James Knox Taylor, supervising ar
chitect of the treasury department.
The American home is the most
important of American institutions.
If the home is not improved by the
widening of woman’s sphere and in
fluence, then certainly the widening
is of no real oopsequence, But a
comparison of the average American
home to-day with the home &■* *a
generation ago shows many new
and beautiful and useful things in
it. These the American girl has
brought back from her little journey
in the world. Among other things
there are good reproductions of fa
mous paintings to replace the old-
fashioned chromos which were un-
Bpeakably bad; sanitary plumbing
and labor-saving kitcheu devices
without number; hygienic cooking;
common-sense clothing; simple ar
chitecture, with its great impetus to
beauty; good and at least grammat
ically written books; the free-circu-
lation library; cheap magazines care
fully edited and crammed full of
civilization from the 1 first page to
the very last, advertisements and all;
a working knowledge of the impor
tant scientific facts about the human
body, and a rudimentary education
in the causes of disease and the
necessary precaution for preventing
those ills of the flesh that comp from
microbes and kindred causes. All
these things and hundreds of others
the American girl has brought to
her home to beautify it, to make it
happy, to make: it healthful, to glo
rify it. But better than beauty and
happiness and health is the spirit of
independence which she has brought
to this home. She has earned her
living. She has tried the world,and
does not fear it. She goes to her
home as a rest from her “loved em
ploy,” not as a place of bondage.
The American girl who enters upon
the duties of a wife goes not as a
dependent, but as an equal.—Wil
