Wooden Toothpicks

a toothpick factory is one of the
fourishing woodworking establish
ments at Harbor Springs, Mich. and
IL is one OF the largest factories of the
kind in the country. White birch is
exclusively used in the manufacture
of the toothpicks, and about Z, 100000
of the handy little splinters are turned
out daily The logs are sawed up into
bolts each % inches in length, then
thoroughly steamed and cut up into
long ribbons, three inches in width,
and these ribbons, eight or ten of them
at a time, are run through the tooth
pick machinery, coming out at the
other end, the perfect pieces falling
into the basket, the broken pieces and
refuse falling into another. The picks
are packed into boxes, 1900 In box,
by girls, mostly comely looking young
squads, and are then packed into cases
and finally into big boxes, ready for
shipment to all parts OF the world.
The white birch toothpicks are very
neat and clean in appearance, sweet TO
the taste and there is wide market for
them. The goods sell at the factory at
SI.90 a case OF 150, 900 picks, or 100
small boxes each containing 1900, and
the small boxes retail at five cents each,
or 800 picks for one cent, at which
rate almost everybody can afford to
take fresh tOothplck after each meal.

To Do Right.

There IS all the difference in the
world between the man who means to
do ''about right" and the man who
means to do right. The man who
means to do s'about right" is the COM
monest and most commonplace sort of
man among men. He is the man who
does not very decidedly mean not TO do
just a little wrong if circumstances
should seem to require 1t. He passes
for "a very good sort of man." but he
is not good,-he comes very far short
Of being good. The reservation that
he makes in his purpose OF conduct
talnts his whole character; and SO 1t
makes "dll the difference IN the world"
between him and the one who purpo-
ses to do rIght,-all the difference il
two worlds, indeed Ii you would do
''about right" you must mean TO do
wholly right, without any qualification
or reserve.
