Tbe Sun Pearl Photograph Gallery, un the corner of Fort and King streets, formerly owned by A.

To be serious, it has. reduced tbe prices of Cabinet photographs to $6 ier dozen, and card-size S3 per dozen The best artists available are employed here, and their work speaks for itself.

This great reduction in prices is made to suit the hard times. A photograph is one of tbe meat loving tokens which ran be sent to friend, and this is great opportunity to forward an elegant picture to relatives in Europe or America, or in any other part of tbe world. Building; Earthquake Proof. In Japan, where shocks of earthquakes are frequent, a contemporary says that is not usual to dig foundations for any building, no matter bow large or important it may be. Rocks slightly rounded at the top are placed where the corners of the house are to bet The corner posts, rounded at tbe end, rest these.

The timbers are all pinned together, not nailed, so as to allow of considerable movement without coming apart. In the central portion of the building of the timbers are particularly heavy, and aet as ballast. In high towers thtrc are sometimes huge beams swung from the roof and reaching to within a foot of the which prevent the building from beinfj overturned either by earthquake or 'storm." Tho oldest building in Japan, the Treasury a.t Nara, isbuilt in this manner, without the swinging beam, but with a very heavy ballast in tho framework of the centre of the floor. i i an Indian (Inmates.
