"LON o “Learn One Thing Every-Day”- No.3. ST. PAUL'S CATHEDRAL Copyright, 1913, by The Associated Newspaper School, Inc. - When St. Paul's aCthedral was ;being rebuilt by Sir Christopher Wren in the sevetneenth century, a stone was needed for one of the porticos, and one of the workmen brought from the ruins of the former church a plece that was put in place. After- ward it was geen to bear the inscrip- tion “Resurgam” (I shall rise again). This old Latin word, carved upon some ancient grave, embodies a re- markable fact about St. Paul's; for upon " this site "there have been no less than five churches, each of the first four being destroyed and a new one rising from its ruins. It is cer- tain that there was a church here in the time of the Romans, which was! destroyed by the pagan Saxons and rebuilt by Ethelbert, King of Kent, in 610. This was burned in 961, and rebuilt within the year. This, too, was destroyed in 1087 and a new one begun, which was completed in 200 years. In 1661 the spire of this church was destroyed by fire, and the building fell into dilapidation, much of the material being used to put in- to other buildings. The remains were destroyed by the great fire of 1666, and it was eleven years later that Wren undertook the construc- tion of the present edifice, which was completed in thirty-five years. The funds were raised by a tax on coal. St. Paul’s, which is the most con- spicuous building in London, is the fifth cathedral in size in Christendom, and resembles St. Peter’s at Rome, al- though it is smaller. In the form ofi a Roman cross, it is 500 feet long,| 118 feet broad, and is surmounted by a great dome which is 364 feet to the top of the cross. Two campanile tow- ers rise from the front, one contain- ing a fine set of chimes, the other supporting the largest bell in Eng- land, “Great Paul,” which weighs 16 tons. Best seen from the Thames or the opposite bank, the majesty and gen- erous dimensions of the cathedral and its dome are apparent. Near at hand it is so hemmed in by business streets and blocks that it cannot be viewed| to advantage. ! While in a less degree than West- minster, St. Paul’s is still the resting = AR We are Jobbers of PIN TICKETS d an GUMMED LABELS No need to send outside of Bemidji for them.

Most of her great soldi and sailors, artists, architects, and musicians, le here. Chief of these are Lord Nelson, whose bier stands in| the crypt exactly beneath the-cénter of the dome, and the Duke of Wi ington, ‘the former of whom crushed || the forces of- Napoleon on the'sea, che1 latter on the land. In the crypt is the enormous funeral car that bore the “Iron Duke” to the grave in 1852. It was cast from cannon that he .cap- tured from the enemy. Among the other noted dead that lie here are General Gordon, the martyr of Khartum; Lord Cornwal- lis; the arists Sir Joshua Reynolds, Benjamin West, Lawrence, Turner, Sir John Millais, and Landseer; Wren who built the vathedral; and Sir Arthur Sullivan, the composer. At the base of the dome is a gal- lery where a- curious thing has oc- curred. The dome is so constructed that the slightest whisper at one side of the gallery may be distinctly heard at the opposite side, 108 feet. away. 1t was on.the pavement in front of St. Paul’s that Queen Victoria knelt in 1897 to give thanks on the occas- ion of the sixtieth anniversary of her accession to the throne. Just to the right and left the tor- rent of commerce sweeps past. There is the thunder and roar of the busiest part of the busiest city in the world. Just-a few: steps, within the cathed- ral, and all this is forgotten. The thunder is gone, or is but'a faint and distant murmur. Instead there is the peace and quiet of this holy place, the rush broken only by the distant sounds of the service far down the interior. Then for a moment, there | is silence, and suddenly the splendidi organ peals fodth its mighty not which search out every corner of ‘the vast cathedral and seem to add their | voices as witnesses to the glory of de- parted heroes.
