How Clothespins Are Made.

ClOthespinS are made in the lumber regions.
They are usually made of white ash, some
times of beach, black and white birch and
maple. The wood is taken to the factory in
logs and cut into lengths of thirty-one inches
by circular saws. These lengths are then cut
into blocks and the blocks again cut into
sticks. The sticks are placed under another
saw, and cut into the required lengths. Next
the turner takes a hand at them and from
there they go to the slottng machine. They
are placed in troughs by the operator, the
machine picking them up and slotting them
They are then placed in a revolving pipe dricr
going thence to the polishing cylinder and
then to the packer.
Each pin passes Il rough eight hands. \
single plant consist OF board saw, gang split
ter, gang chunker, turning lathe, drying
house and polisher and costs from $1,000 to
$4,000 The machines working are very in
teresting The little blocks of wood five and
half inches long are placed on an endless
belt, which feeds the blocks automatically
into the lathe AS the lathe is turned the
pin is taken automatically from the spindle
and placed on a turntable and carried to a
circular saw, which whittles out the Slot in
the pin. 1t is then finished and thrOwUout of
the turntable by the same appliance that puts
the pins on the table. Falling, they are
caught in basket or barrel and are then
taken to the drying house for ten to twenty
four hours, or until dry. The polishing cyl
inder or rumbler holds twenty to forty bush
els; this is run at a slow speed, about thirty
turns minute, and by simple friction and
contact they become polished. New Yorl;

That old saying "Once a counterfeiter
always counterfeiter" is true in 900 cases
out of every 1000. There is a fascination
about the manufacture of spurious coin that
when man follows it for while and gets
rid of his stuff he becomes bolder until he is
finally captured. Long years of imprison-
ment do not seem to wear out the ardor for
the counterfeit mold. There is counterfeit
ing carried on in a mild degree all over the
country. We find the young ''cross roads
man making a little occasionally with his
plaster of paris molds, and then we find that
some stereotyper has applied his art with
papier mache and turned out a very good
looking dollar made of type metal. By the
stereotyping process a better milled dollar is
secured than by any other process, but that
class of men very seldom go beyond the ex-
detrimental stage. They may make one OF
two, and then find they can do so and quit
through fear. Starvation sometimes drives
a man into the business of making spurious
coins, but this is not often. The case is very
rare that counterfeiter ever escapes detec-
ton; in fact, at this age of the world it is
simply impossible for them to escape for any
length of time.-lInited States Agent in

The Drummer Got Left.

\ Scotch story is that of dimnutive
drummer in a local brass band, who was in
the habit, when out parading with his COM
rades, of walking by sound and not by sight,
owing to his drum being so high that he was
unable to see over it. The band, ON Satur-
day afternoons, paraGed usually in one direc-
ton, but the other day the leader thought he
would change the route little, and turned
down by street. The drummer, unaware
of this movement, kept on his accustomed
way, drumming as hard as ever he could.
BY and by, after finishing his part and not
hearing the others, he stopped, and, pushing
his drum aside, he looked to see what was the
matter. HIS astonishment may be imagined
at finding that he was alone "Hael" he
cried to some bystanders, "has ony o yeseen

The So Called Crane Cure.

Among the most ancient Of the methods Of
treating disease by special modes of diet is
the so called grape cure, which may be
traced in history since the days Of Moses. In
the time Of Nero the curative virtues of
grapes were highly Landed by one Of the best
medical writers whose works have como
down to us. But grapes were not the only
fruits given with view to their medicinal
effects, In the Middle Ages We find mention
of r,aniacs cured by diet of cherries, while
Strawberries are credited with having eff
fected many wonderful cures, Later, in the
course of our own civil war, a diet Of ripe
peaches has often succeeded. after all medi-
cation had failed TO cure the obstinate bowel
troubles SO common among the volunteer
soldiers-Globe- Democrat.

A MAN OF OTHER DAYS.
George Rex Graham, the Founder OF
Graham's Magazine.

Forty years ago no man was better known
in literary circles than George Rex Graham.
His name was n household word. He was
the protector and owner of Graham's Maya
zine. Although a writer of grace and force,
Mr. Graham never made any pretence to be,
strictly speaking, literary man, but he was
generous employer, and in many instances
was also the discoverer of our best known
and greatest writer's. He was the first Amer
lean publisher to pay respectable prices for
literary wares Bayard Taylor, whose earli-
est poems he published was amazed when
Graham rendered him S25 check for two
poorly priced poetic illusions. For his
Spanish Student" Longfellow received $50
from Mr.. Graham, and for "The Village
Blacksmith $50. Fenmore Cooper once
called on him in answer to note. Graham
wanted him to write ten naval stories.
81 can't write for you, said Cooper, rather
contemptuously, adding, ''you can't pay me
enough"
GLOW much do you want for each storym
asked Graham.
zone hundred dollars-in advance" was
Coopers reply, pausing before uttering the
two last words, as if he thought they would
end the matter Without moments hesita
ton Graham wrote out and handed Cooper u
and published, but Mr.. Graham believes they
did his magazine no special good. His fame
as large handed publisher spread, however,
and did him great service. His friends told
him his lberality would ruin him. On the
contrary, it won him n fortune in Il few years,
as he confidently expected it would.
Mr.. Graham is now - years old. For three
years he has been an inmate of an ophthalmic
hospital. He had cataracts removed from
both eyes. For two years he was totally
blind, but thanks to good treatment his sight
has been partially restored, and he has left
the hospital to begin life anew He has
made and lost two fortunes, and now at the
age of nearly fourscOre years he is about to
take up his pen and try to make Il new for
tune. He is not at all cast down, although
he hasn't a penny to his name. The restora-
ton of his eyesight has made him as happy
as a boy chasing butterfly. This sudden
restoration to the light of day, after period
| of nearly five years of partial and total blind
| ness is like new blrth-it is being born
| again; the happiness of early manhood is
| being restored, and old age itself is unfelt
| 1t is a renewal of youth iof hope for the
| future-New York Mail and Express.

western passenger agent. In March, 1871,
Thomas A. Scott was elected president of
the Union Pacific Railway company, and
Mr. Kimball, who had been intimately as
ISOLATED with him in the service of the
Pennsylvania company for twelve con-
secutive years, was appointed by Mr..
Scott to the position of general passenger
and ticket agent of the Union Pacific.
During the same year Mr.. Kimball went
to Omaha, where he has ever since re-
sided. During this long period-nearly
seventeen years-Mr. Kimball has re-
NAMED with the Union Pacific through
out all changes of administration. For
ten years he filled the Office to which he
was first ppointed-generM passenger
and ticket agent. He was then promoted
to be assistant general manager, which
Office he filed for four years The next
three years he was the general traffic
manager of tho Union Pacific system,
which had grown to vast proportions
ability, such as Mr.. Kimball is ac-
kno wledged to be, at it's head On Sept.
l, 1887, he was appointed assistant to First
Vice President Potter. and on the death
of the latter was made general manager.
Mr. Kimball is a very thorough and sys-
tematic railroad man. He is master of
every detail, and in the science of rail
reading, especially from commercial
standpoint, he has but few equals in this
country His long connection with the
Union Pacific attests the high esteem in
which his services are held Mr.. Kimball

One of the best known railroad men in
this country is Thomas Lord Kimball, re-
Gently made general manager of the
Union Pacific. vice Thomas j. Potter, de-
ceased He was born in Buxton, York
county, Me-, Oct. 1. 1881, and lived with
his parents ON farm until he was II
years of age. He then entered upon a
course of academic study, and taught
school during his vacations till his 2lst
year, when he engaged in commercial and
express business, in which he continued
for four years. In 1856 Mr.. Kimball Wis.,
tied most of the western states, and a
year later removed with his family to the
western reserve in Ohio, and resided
there until early in 1859, when he located
in Cincinnati During the following year
he turned to account his earlier expe-
rience as an amateur newspaper writer and

Concerning Medical Experts.

The able address by DR.. Brooks of
st. Johnsbury, before the Vermont
Medical society, will interest and in
struct all classes of readers. He makes
two strong points first, that physi-
clans ought to be employed 10 prevent
disease more than to cure It; and sec
ond, that when they are called into
court to testify as experts, they ought
to be paid an inadequate price for their
knowledge. To this end he opposes
as all good lawyers do, the present
scandalous practice of each side calling
experts, who often appear more as ad-
vocates than as purely scientific wit
nesses, and would have substituted for
it a paid commission of medical men,
who would be as free from bias as the
states judges. The principle in this
proposition is all right, but in state
no larger than Vermont there is not
occasion enough for a salaried BOARD
of that kind. Would it not be better
to authorize courts to appoint experts
as cases demand and let their fees,
which should be liberal, be fixed by
law This, we think, would be found
more convenient and would often re-
suit in securing opinions from special
lists on the subject under inquiry, while
a regular board might not in all cases
be especially experts.
