Gum-CheWing Defended.

Gum chewing in itself is not so bad.
Some of the most pleasant reminis-
cences Of my own life are connected
with chewing gum. Have you ever
hunted or fished in the Adirondacks {?
Well, what can compare with the fra
grant lump of spruce gum which you
pick with your own fingers from the
broken bark through which it has ex-
udt d and where it has dried, until it is
as hard as resin and almost as clear as
amber. Do you remember the men,
yes, and women, too, whom you have
met in those great woods, armed with q
long pole, upon the end of which was
fastened broken knife, with which they
lOOsened from the old trunks the gum
which they could not reach with their
fingers and packed it away into sacks
for the market? Have you ever been a
boy in the lumber regions and manu-
factured gum from the raw turpentine,
which you gathered with a case knife
from the ends of the pine logs in the
logways, scraping it Off on the edge of
an old tin pal without bail, where it
gradually settled, firm mass, full Of
gli5tering bubbles of air? And when
the trrpentine has been sufficiently
cooked upon the stove, have you ever
known the intense excitement of lifting
with q rag the bailless pail, with it's ter
ribly hot mixture, from the stove, to
ponr it into cold water, where it became
a clear substance, not so hard as resin,
assuming all sorts of fantastic forms {?
Ard have you known the solder to melt
a. d the bottom to fall from the pail, as
it sometimes does, while your boiling
turpentine created a frightful confagra-
tion on the red-hot stove and ruined for
ever the whiteness of the kitchen floor,
the whole family flying in CONSERVATION
from The door, and your mother wear
ing frown on her face for day? Well,
[ have known all this, and [ don't for
get it.-Ne1U York Sun.

Obtaining Government Position Through
Brokers.

I knew of one case in which a Young
man from Western State was in Wash
ington seeking Government employ
ment One of the Senators from his
State was working industriously for
him, and had been promised position.
The young man, however, got out of pa
tience, and advertised that he would
pay for q place. One of the smart
brokers' answered the advertisement,
and the Western young man called on
him. After short conversation. the
terms were agreed upon and the broker
assured the gentleman that he would
get him q place. Then he asked his
visitor if he had any references; any
body who knew him and would vouch
for his character, etc. @Oh, yes," re-
piled the young man, very thoughtless-
ly, Senator - is my friend, and has
been promiseda a position for me-" NAM
ing the department chief who had made
the promise. Next day the broker
waited upon the Senator and expressed
great interest in the young man. He
was anxious to see him placed, and was
satisfied he could be of service in OBJ
tanning him q position if the Senator
would permit him (the broker) to aid in
the undertaking. The Senator who, bv
the way, was one of the most honest and
credulous, easy-going men [ ever saw,
gladly accepted the proffered aid, and in
a short time the broker was in possess
sion of all the facts concerning the case.
He obtained note from the Senator,
addressed to the department chief, in re-
lation to the matter, and thus worked
himself right into it. He was informed
that the department had not lost sight
of the case, and that he might say to
the Senator that vacancy would oc-
cur in few days. The broker then
carried to the young man the message
which called him to the department to
receive his appointment, and claimed to
have procured the position for him. For
eight months that confding youth paid
S25 per month, only to learn afterward
that the man had no more influence in
getting him work than had the man in
the moon. The young man is still here
in Government employ, and is a most
worthy gentleman-hence do not care
to give his name, but I've no doubt his
is type of many cases. You may set
down any man who offers to procure
Government places for pay as fraud,
and if he denies it refer him to me, and
I'll guarantee to prove it, it,-WdSh5ngto ton

Big BanknOteS.

The largest amount of banknote in
circulation in 1927 was 1000. It is
said that two notes for G100, 900 each,
and two for ESQ, 900 each, were once ell
gr&ved and issued A butcher, who
had amassed an immense fortune in the
war times, went one day with one Of
these $780, notes to a private banker,
asking for the loan of $4,000, and wish
ing TO deposit the big note as security
IL the bankers hands, saying he had
kept it for years. The $4,000 was at
once handed over, but the banker
limited, at the same time, to the butcher
the folly Of boarding such a sum and
losing the interest. "Wery true, sir, ;"
replied the butcher, "but I likes the
look ont so very well that I have
t'other one of the same kind at home" :"
IN eccentric gentleman in London
framed bank post bill for ESQ, 900,
and exhibited it for five years in one of
his sitting-rooms. The fifth year he
died, when the picture" was at once
taken down and cashed by the heirs.
Some years ago, at a nobleman's
house near Hyde Park, a dispute arose
about certain passage in Scripture,
and, a dean who was present denying
that there was any such text at all, a
Bible was called for. When it was
opened marker was found in it, which
on examination proved to be bank
post bill for e40, 1000. It might possibly
have been placed there as reproach to
the son, who, perhaps, did not consult
the Bible so often as his mother could
have wished.-London TIt6itS.

however, who was shrewder than the
rest, instituted q search for the en-
graver, whom he found residing in
Springfield, and he had still remaining
seven of the precious squares, which
he disposed of to the collector for rs
cents each, beside furnishing indubita-
bic proof Of the genuineness Of the issue,
the very existence of which was
doubted. The fact of the purchase
leaked out, and dealer offered 81
apiece for six Of the seven. This was
refused by the original purchaser, who
demanded five times that sum, and be-
fore the money reached him, although
it was sent with promptitude, he had
an offer of so apiece. Being an hon
est man, he stuck to his first offer, and
parted with six for $50. The most
precious of the lot, which bore the en-
graver's name, he retained possession
of, and this one he sold for $1OO.-Bos-
tom TrdUeler.
