Washington Money Lenders,

When II government clerk gets deeply
"in a hole,n or suffers the agonizing dis
comfort of being on ''his last legs" he
generally appeals for a lift to one who, in
Washington parlance, is known as TO-
percentcr. This is specimen of human
ity that loans money for sums not ex-
ceedng half the borrowers salary, at the
rate of 10 per cent per month; that is, if
your salary is 500 a month, he will loan
you S4j in cash and take your note foI
$50, payable in thirty days. These mon
ey-lcnders claim this cxorbitant interest
on the ground that the insufficient secu.
rity subjects them TO frequent losses.
But | do not see how they cap lose;
clerk is completely in their power. They
rcver accept note without the name of
q second clerk in cook standing as an en-
lorser. If either clerk refuses to pay,
his position in the department can be
placed in jeopardy by the 1O-pcrcenter
lillng report of disregard of obligation
against him. The lenders only danger
of loss depends upon the rare contingency
IF death, resignation, or discharge sever
ing both the principals and the endors-
IRIS connection with the department be-
fore the note falls due. This money-lcnd-
ing business is Il lucrative one, and tho
foundation of many handsome fortune
IN Washington has been thus laid.-At-

Canned Goods,

In the testimony brought forward in
the recent Kolyer-T Thurber case, much
light was thrown by expert and other
witnesses upon the methods, in some in
stances, of the canning trade. Besides
the copper boiling and zinc soldering
practices, other rcprchensiblc modes of
manufacture were testified to. One wit
ness, who said that he had been in the
canning business for thirty years, gave a
simple means Of distinguishing spoiled
from wholesome fruit. 1t is understood
that when air can get at the contents Of
the can decomposition will ensuc. The
wholesomeness of the goods, therefore,
depends entirely upon the air-tight con-
dition of the can. The witness asserted
that when can is perfectly air tight
there will be hollow in the heads-that
is, they will cave in. If they are Level,
and spring back when pressed upon, they
are known to the trade as "spring bot
toms".-that is, air has got in and the
contents are in state of fermentation.
The cans have been badly soldered or
sealed up. If the "spring bottoms"
stand long enough they become what is
known as "swcl- -heads"-that is, the
bottoms have become convex and swell
out, condition due to the generation of
gases by the process of fermentation. In
order to sell these goods INSCRIPTIONS
dealers resort to what witnesses called
"rcproccssng" That is, the dealers
make hole in the head of the can, heat
the fruit and solder it up again; or, as
this trick is easily detected, shrewdcr
manufacturers melt open the original
vent-hole, heat the fruit and then resol-
der the can at the old place. This leaves
no mark, and therefore removes all evil
dencc that the can has been tampered
with. h.-Ncw York Commercial.

Concerning Pensions.

An Examiner of Pensions gives the fol
lowing hints concerning applications for
pensions that may be of use to old SOL
dcrs.
Now in obtaining pensions all the Gov
crnmcnt wants are the facts, simple plain
facts, and then there is no trouble. If Il
man can prove that he is suffering from a
disability contracted in the arm y, and
while on duty, he will get II pension with
out any trouble. lie may have prco', say
of two persons, one perhaps in California,
another may be in Maine. No matter
where they are we go and see them and
get their statements. The government
gives man all the opportunity in the
world to establish the fact that he is en-
titled to pension. The claimant is not
required to go to any expense whatever,
but the government stands it all. All
that is necessary is simply to prove that
it is deserving of a pension. Sometimes
a man applies for pension but that docs

Hair for Wigs.

The hair for making wigs comes from
all parts of the world. The natural
blonde comes from Norway and Sweden.
Dealers in the south of France supply
great quantities of dark hair and thou
sands of pounds of black hair are brought
from Italy to New York every year.
China sends us the cheapest hair, but
it is rather coarse, and is used in manu-
featuring lowgrade theatrical wigs
and back pieces, braids and bangs for
ladies' street wear. By bleaching and
dyeing, Chinese hair can be given any
color that is desired. But it assumes
auburn shades best, and an enormous
quantity of it has been used. The
Swedish hair is rarely longer than
twenty-five inches, and when received
here it is always dirty and teeming with
insects. French hair is generally clean,
but the Italian hair, which comes to
New York in 1OO-pound bundles, is ex-
ceedingly filthy, and the workmen who
clean it before it is purchased by the
wig-makers sometimes contract diseases
from handling it. Dyed hair is called
"dead," and becomes harsh after being
worn short time. Chemicals are used
to give it glossy appearance. Besides
the human hair large quantities of yak
and angora goat hair and jute fiber are
uspd

TWO Amateur MOuntaineers.

Never was there mountain so well
adapted to boys and girls as the Rigi.
One day, as | was walking toward
place from which there was a good view,
| heard a step behind me, and directly
was passed by regular mountain
climber. lie was tall young man, with
a mighty stride. He wore a flannel
shirt, with no coat or vest, but these
hung at his back from strap around his
waist. On his powerful legs were knick.
crbockcrs and ii pair of long red stock
ings, and in his hand he held loag.
pointed alpcnstock. Up the mountain,
straight toward the highest point of the
Kuhn, he went, steadily and swiftly as a
two-leggcd stcam-enginc. lie was such
man rs we would probably meet on the
snowy peaks of the Higher Alps, if we
should happen to be wandering there
Shortly after this young athlete had
passed, | saw, coming down the mount
ain, lady and her little boy. The
youngster, about six years old, who
marched behind his mother, was equipped
in true mountainecr style. His little
coat hung at his little back; on his little
legs he wore knickcrbockcrs and long
stockings, and on his feet pair of little
hob-nailed shoes; in his hand he carried
a little alpenstock. His mother was a
good walker, but she did not leave her
boy behind. With strides as long as his
little legs could make, he followed her
bravely down the hill, punching his
sharp stick into the ground at every step,
as if he wished to make the mountain
feel that he was there. lie was Just as
full of the spirit of the Alpine climber,
and enjoyed his tramp quite as much, as
the practiccd mountainecr who was strid-
ing away toward the Kulm.- Nicholas.

EmbaImed bY the Soil.

Human bodies buried in limestone
countries are often turned to solid stone
by the lime water which penetrates the
graves. In other soils there are elements
which sometimes so embalm the buried
dead as to preserve form and features un-
changed. Many such cases are on record.
Robert Burns's body was disinterred in
1915, to be removed to a new tomb. To
the surprise of all his friends, the features
were found to be as perfect as at burial.
The case of John Hampden, the
famous English patriot and leader, was
more surprising. His body was disin-
tered by Lord Nugent, two hundred
years after burial, but form and features
were as unchanged as if the corpse had
been recently laid in the grave.
When general Washington's body was
taken up at Mt. Vernon, to be laid in a
sarcophagus and removed to the perma-
nent tomb, his face was found to be in a
state of perfect preservation.
In all these cases, however, the process
of decay hac gone on internally, thougi
arrested at the surface. After brief ex-
posure to the air, the body crumbled,
and all resemblance to life passed away.
