HOW FIBRED BANK NOTE PAPER is
MADE,

The fbred bank note paper on which our
legal tenders, national bank note currency,
and Government bonds are printed, is made
at Dalton, Mass, in an old mill, whose ex-
istence dates back to colonial times. If you
should happen this way sometime, and
should stop at the old paper mill, with
proper credentials, you may, perhaps, be
allowed to handle a sheet of the crisp fibre
paper, or take a peep at the pulp press,
where, as the wet grayish pulp is pressed be-
tween heavy iron cylinders, bits of blue and
red silk thread are scattered over its face, and
silken ribs laid ON its surface. You may go
beyond into the counting room, where each
sheet, as it comes from the drying room, is
carefully examined and counted, and then
returned to the paper cutter to be divided
into smaller sheets. If You trace this paper
still further, you will find that from the cut
ter's hands it passes again to the counting
room, is separated into little packages con-

came used to the racket. But the poor fell
quently caught in the range of these guns,
and nulabers were killed while unable to
protect themselves in their tents. The night
scenes during the siege were interesting and
exciting. The fleet with all the mortar boats
which were anchored in position above and
below the city would open the ball at dark
and continue throwing the huge shells into
the hapless city at all hours of the night.
The firing and exploding of these tremendous
missiles was terrific, but the sight of their
flight through the air with fiery fuse like
comets tail was grand, and we would salute
the rebels with the words, Lookout. John,
a fire-bug is coming" 1t was a dread of the
mortar shells that drove the inhabitants TO
the side hills, and the caves in which they
lived, dug in the form Of the letter Y, saved
a great many lives that would have been
otherwise sacrificed. Picket or other firing
along the lines during the night seldom Oc-
Cured, and we had n great deal of sport
chatting with the Johnnies opening trades
of bacon for mule and rat meat, and inviting
them over to breakfast, which invitations
were frequently accepted, rs desertions dur
ing the night were common occurrences. To
sleep with all the noise and uproar soon be
came almost mechanical, and unless it has
been experienced a reader would doubt that
a man could sleep soundly all night within
ten yards of a six-gun battery firing at in
tervals of five OF ten minutes and not be
disturbed.

A CHINESE FUNERAL

The funeral of Yet Ki Youen, Chinese
merchant and high muck-a-muck in the So
cial circles of Chinatown took place with all
the ceremonies which those of Mr.. Youen's
nation pay to their dead. A tent was erected
in Chinatown, and in it was placed the open
coffin so that all those who wished might
take last look at the dead merchants fea-
lures. Around the coffin were tables covered
with candies, cakes, and baked meats, which
were watched with longing eyes by the
youngsters who congregated near the en-
trance to the tent. About eleven o'clock the
coffin was placed in a hearse, and, followed
by several carry-alls containing Cinnamon,
was taken to Oak Hill Cemetery, where the
burial took place. Enough refreshments
were left at the grave to ward off the hunger
of Vets ghost for several days.-San Jose

THE LATEST NOVELTY IN CARRIERS.

The fashion for wearing jeweled garters
has spread so rapidly that jewelers. all keep
the article in stock. They are very expen-
sive. A member of conspicuous firm ex-
plains "The rage is recent, but none the
less strong, and it promises to spread indefi-
nitely, as the rage is as unlimited as the
purse. All the prominent society women
and many who are not in society wear them.
You see, women constitutionally delight in
pretty things, and the adornment is of more
interest and enjoyment to them than any
thing else If you will come down stairs I'll
show you the stock"
There was a show case full of them, each
pair mounted in velvet box. The pattern
was the same in all Us far as the band was
concerned The band was full an inch wide
made of fine elastic, and covered with beau
tiful woven silk of every conceivable shape

They are designed to match the tint of the
dress worn with them. In one case two
heart-shaped clasps of cOlored gold, inlaid
with cross bars of torquois and pearls
joined the ends of scarlet band with little
frills of silk along the edges. The price was
$100. A pair with two oval clasps of ham,
mered gold, perhaps an inch in length, could
be bought for $48, while the cheapest pair,
with plain gold clasps, was $40.
dts curious fact" said the jeweler, that
the cheap ones won't sell. When a customer
wants an elegant garter he-I mean she-is
willing to pay for it.
A pair that costs 1926 had two shields with
three big pearls in each, and little diamonds
at the edges. Another pair was expensive
through its delicate lace, which was arranged
in a fluffy bow-knot with two little gold
disks clasping in the centre.
At another establishment the ieweler said :
"The majority of them are made to order
Your visit is opportune, as 1 have just fin

my factory. The price is $1,000" In this
the lace and pearl-colored silk band was
joined by an elaborate clasp. On one side was
the lady's monogram in pearls; on the other
the coat-of-arms, with frosted stork's heads, q
crest of delicately carved gold, and motto
set in chip diamonds. 1t was present from

Carefully pillow his curly brown head.
Tenderly, soldier see you the smile
Death from the ruby lip could not beguile7

In its last sleep lies his beautiful form;
Bravely he fell for his country that day,
Fell for the Union-in battle arrayi
Tenderly, soldier! for o, look you hcrei

This is the sister so tendcry loved

From the vaults of the paper mill at Dalton
to the guarded storerooms of the Treasury at
Washington is but a journey of two or three
days. In the capacious vaults of the Treas
ury building, among gold and silver and
copper and nickel coins, bullion, paper cur

comes in little iron safes, such as are used
by the Adams Express Company, and each
package and every sheet is carefully counted
before the manufacturer and express COM

STORIES THAT CARRY NO MORALS.


"No," exclaimed young Harry, when
tempted to take bright halfdollar from
the till of his employer, "no, it is not mine,
and l will touch it not. And, pray what
good would it do me? 1t would buy but
few punches of cigarettes, which would soon
be smoked up, and then where is the half
dollar? No, / will withstand this tempta-
ton and beg my cigarettes from Fred. I
will make no haste to acquire wealth. /
will have patience" So Harry turned his
back on the half-dollar. By patience and
careful doctoring of his employers accounts
he was in few short years enabled to leave
for Europe with $4,000 III his pocket.
Theodore was poor lad. One day, when
he was very hungry, he espied five-cent
piece on the floor Of the brokers' Office which
he was sweeping out. He had remembered
stories wherein little boys had picked up
small piece of money, handed it to the great
merchant or rich banker, and been immedi-
ately taken into partnership. So Theodore
stepped up to the door of the brokers' private
room and said: please sir, here is five-cent
piece l found on your floor" The broker
looked at Theodore moment and then said,
" You found that on my floor, did you? And
you are hungry, aren't you? eyes, sir" re-
piled Theodore. "Well, give it me, and get
out. I was looking around for partner;
but boy who don't know enough to buy
bread when he is starving to death would
made but a sorry broker. No, boy, can't
take you into the firm" And Theodore
never became great broker. Honesty is
the best policy, children, but it is not indis-
pensable to success in the brokerage business.

NEARLY KISSED TO DEATH,

Oscillation is unquestionably pleasing
pursuit. It has been recognized as such
from time immemorial, by generations IN
numbered of lovers, poets, and even philoso-
pliers. There are, doubtless, at the present
moment, in this as in other countries, many
enamored swains who ask no better than to
be permitted to imprint ten thousand
Kisses" one after another, upon the lips of
the damsels on whom they have bestowed
their affections. They may, however, es-
TEEN themselves fortunate If their oppor-
tunities in this direction are somewhat
limited, as the following true story will
show:
At an evening party in Kelkheim, few
week ago,the conversation happened to turn
upon kissing, and the question arose how
many salutations of this class could be
exchanged between two ardent lovers within
a certain space of time AS usual, opinions
differed, and the discussion waxed warm.
Presently fiery youth offered to bet any
body present the German equivalent OF a
ten-pound note that he and his betrothed
would kiss one another 10000 times within
ten hours, provided they were permitted to
partake of some slight refreshment at
intervals of half an hour during the perfor-
nance. His wagers having been accepted
and the money posted, the afianced couple
addressed themselves to the achievement of
their congenial task.
At the expiration of the first hour their
account stood credited with two thousand
kisses. During the second they added
another thousand, and during the third
seven hundred and fifty to that number.
Then, pitiful to state, they both broke down.
The youths lips were stricken with cramp,
and the maiden tainted away. Later on IN
the evening she was compelled to take to
her bed with a sharp attack of neuralgia.
An even more distressing result ensued from
this surfeit of tender endearment, for it led
to the breaking off, by mutual CONSENT of
hopeful matrimonial engagement Young
lovers should keep this sad tale in mind and
moderate their transports, for strange as it
may seem, Dan Cupid himself may be
kissed to death.-L0ndon Telegraph.

SAVED BY A SONG-BOOK.

At the battle of Peach Orchard, when
Mcclellan was making his change of base,
Michigan infantryman fell to the ground
as if shot dead, and was left lying in heap
as the regiment changed position. The ball
which hit him first struck the barrel of his
gun, glanced and struck a button off his
coat, tore the watch out of his vest pocket,
and struck the man over the heart, and was
stopped there by song-book in his breast
pocket He was unconcious for three-quar-
ters of an hour, and it was full month
before the black and blue spot disappeared.
