Progress is the watchword of the twentieth century, and it is with this thougbht in mind that I present these lines with an intention of conveying as briefly us possible, an idea of the progress being made in the cement gnsiness, and the present advanced ideas on mannfacmrfig cement wares. No product in the world has a wider application to useful pnrg)oun than Portland cement. Men who know its worth realize that it is the only absolâ€" ute fireproof building material in the world. In this respect brick, Terra Muiil w T0 I a History â€" chronicles vaguely tho events of a period known as the "‘stone age"‘ when men wrought with the crudest of implements and eked out the merest sort of existence, but man‘s necessity made him progressive and ’his cunning taught him to devise betâ€" ter instruments of bronze wich wnich to serve his purpose, only to find them in tarn inferior to the improved work of his son in the "jron age.‘" Each plays its part in the economy of nature then yields place to its betters, and the stone age, the bronze age, the iron age retire, yielding to the Imperial age of cemeut. Artificial Stone ;â€"N atural stoneevyen the best marble and granite will ultâ€" imately crumble under constant moistâ€" ure and freezing, but properly made artificial stone is benefitted by reason of the moisture, and Roman arches, stairways, breakwaters, walls, made of artificial stone over 2000 years ago are doing duty toâ€"day while marble, and granite work of the same time is mostly in ruirs.
