Hon Dimes are Made and Counted.

It is not general'y known. that the
{ United States mint, on 9th street, is the
largest institution of the kind in the
world yet it is a fact. Just ct the pres
Isent time there is lively demand for
silver dimes, and hundreds of thousands
of dollars Of them are being shipped to
New York, Chicago, Cincinnati, st. Louis
and other Eastern cities. Two of the
money presses have been for some time
running exclusively on this coin. The
demand is so great that these machines
are not even stopped on Sundays and
will be run on that day throughout the
present month. The process of dime.
making is an interesting one. The silver
bullion is first melted and run into two
pound bars. These in turn are run
through immense rollers and fattened
gUut to the thickness of the coin. These
silver strips are then passed through a
machine which cuts them into the proper
size for the presses, the strips first having
been treated with kind of tallow to
prevent their being scratched in their
passage through the cutters. The silver
pieces are then put into the feeder of the
printing presses, and are fed to the die
by automatic machinery at the rate of
100 per minute, $4,000 dimes being
turned out in regular working day of
eight hours. As the smooth pieces are
pressed between the ponderous printing
dies they receive the lettered and figured
Impression in manner similar to that of
apaper pressed upon form of type; at
Che same time the piece is expanded ina
slight degree, aud the small corrugstions
are cut into its rim. The machine drops
the completed coin into receiver, and
it,isready for the counters hauda.-San

| the Owl club said few nights ago to your
 reporter, ''It's easy enough to stay awake all night if you want to, but the deuce of it is I to get to sleep when you don't want to stay | awake"
 And so it is. Many, many people, whc l work hard all day and depend upon their ! nights sleep for rest and recuperation, find that they can't sleep. They toss and roll, ! turn and twist, doze and dream, but no solid rest comes. If this goes on for several days
 8 condition of nervous irritation, exhaustion of the brain, loss of appetite, heavy and dull feeling, headache, pesvishness and tor DOT result.
 In some it is due to dyspepsia; in many more to the fact that their brains are over worked and over-tasked, and in a condition of nervous excitability. Distressing as this sleeplessness is for the tims it has still graver meaning to those who understand it. It is natures first warning of over-taxed nerves and ovsr-worked and exhausted brain.
 Professor Hammond, great insanity and nerve expert, says: "SleeplsssHess is in any case . grave symptom. It is the first warn ing of serious brain disease, paralysis or in- sanity and will not bear trifing with. ," Scotch Oats Essence should be immediately resorted to to calm and quiet the brain, build up tho nerves, feed them with the phosphorus in which the oats is rich and gentle, relax the bowels by means of the "Boskine" in the oatmeal husk.
 Scotch Oats Essence is natures tonic; nerve and brain vigor, stomach sweetener and bow el regulator. It is the greatest of nerve rem sdies. It has cured paralysis, the opium habit, drunkenness, neuralgia, headache and all nervous complaints.
 It is worth fifty dollars bottle, but is sold fer one dollar. Do we need quote this time more axioms: "A word to the wise," &c., and Gan ounce of prevention" &c. Be g wise virgin and see that your lamp of life is kept burning with.S Scotch Oats Essence.

HOSPITAL SUNDAY,
The Arrangements Appeal for Liberal
 Aid.


 Aid.
 The following circular was read in many of the churches yesterday:
 The annual collection in aid of the New Haven hospital will be taken up on Saturday and Sunday, the 7th and Sth of January. Our appeal for aid is this year even more urgent than usual. From an average of 115 patients a day for the first six months of the year, the number has dropped to about 90 at the present time. Consequently the receipts from patients have fallen off materially, while the main expenses, as for fuel, lights, salaries and wages, remain practically the same as before. The expenditure for food is not great and the attendance has been cu5 down somewhat, as we have been able to close for time one of the wards, but the general expense of running the hospital can be but little reduced. For the past month our receipts from patients have averaged $175 a week less than at this time year ago. It must be borne in mlnd that the rate per week for almost all our patients is much be- low the cost of their support. Only the few marine patients and the very few patients in private rooms pay as much as cost, while the town patients, the soldier patients and the self paying patients in the wards all pay less than cost. The town patients alone cost us in 1886 nearly $3, 900 moro than was received for them, even including the $5, GOO from the State of Connecticut. These low rates are fixed by the demands of charity, and are in the interests of the community, and any in- crease in them would result in cutting off large number from hospital treatment. In otLer words the annual deficiency in the accounts of the hospital is due to our small receipts While economizing as closely as possible in all other directions, we cannot economize in the food or the medicine or the care of sick person. We can only go on giving the treatment needed in each case and trust to the community to help make up the lack caused by small receipts. In 1886 our deficiency was SC, 200 and this year owing te the causes stated above it will be even great er As our income from invested funds is only about $3, 900 we depend on liberal do- nation on Hospital Sunday to enable us to cover expenses.
 We feel sure that we can depend on the liberality of the people of New Haven and that they will respond with the same hearti- ness in previous years.

 An old Book.
 Mir. Robert w Curtis, of Stratford, has an interestinp old book fsome copies of which it is probable are still to be found in New Ha- ven) entitled ftThe Elements of Useful Know ledge, Vol. 1; containing a historical and geographical account of the United States, for the use of schools. By Noah Webster, jun." It was published at Hartford in 1902 and printed and sold by Hudson & Goodwin. On page 16S it tells about the first shipping built in New England, in which it is stated that the first attempt to build water craft in New England was in 1926. The people of Plymouth, ''inding themselves exposed to great hazard coasting in an open boat, and having no ship carpenter, employed house carpenter, who sawed into two parts their largest boat, inserted timbers to lengthen it five or six feet, built deck and rigged it in- to convenient vessel, which did service for seven years" There are of course many other curious statements concerning histori- cal matters and the book has a very great interest both for it's antiquity and it's author ship, as it was issued four years before MT. Webster published his first dictionary in 1S06

An Eloquent Sermon at Trinity Last Evening.
 Rev. MT. Nichols delivered very impress sive and interesting discourse at Trinity church last evening. His subject was the brevity of human life. He inculcated elo- quently the lesson of the hour. Life was 8 probation or discipline. He counseled all to begin the new year wisely and well. There were but 100 people present last evening owing to the stormy weather.
 Before the sermon he spoke of having passed very pleasant afternoon with the 26 Sunday school children who had braved the storm to come to Sunday school, and in the absence of all the teachers he personally took charge of them and the exercises. He felt it an suspicious beginning of the year to have thus been with the children.

Was America Ever D1scoverede

At the time Columbus started in search of the New World nearly every man, woman and child in Europe insisted that there was no New World to discover. When he came back crowned with success large proportion of these good people adhered to their theory; and if they were all alive to day many of them would doubtless insist that America had never been discovered at all. A man will give up anything in the world more readily than a pet theory. For example, look at the individuals who still maintain that consumption is incarable. Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery has cured thou sands of cases, and will cure thousands
 more, but these people can't give up their point. Nevertheless the Discovery will cure any case of consumption if taken in
