GOLD "a KARATS FINE.
Kept in a Table Drawer al the
Government Printing Office.

cavep t1,oreand- 3olissTs worth of goa dust
in a table drawer! Poke your fingers into the
yellow stuff and notice how soft and agreeable
to the feeling it is, While the attendant in
charge watches you carefully and sees that
you do not get away with any of it. 1t is
smooth to the touch because it is all composed
of gold bea:ers' film, rubbed 10 almost impal-
pable powder For the same reason, too, it is
absolutely pure and virgin metal, twen.y-four
carats fine.
The drawer is in charge Of pretty Young
girl at the Government Printing Office.
Her work there is to stamp gold lettering
and ornamentation upon book-covers. The
precious substance comes to her in the
shape of little rectangular sheets of foil in
expressbly thin, laid between layers of
tissue paper made up to book form, each
book holding twenty-four gold sheets.
Handling them is matter requiring great
skill, though Won might not imaqjp9oiiI Rms
casual inspection. To begin with, say. fha
young woman places on the table before
her an ordinary leather book-cOver. She
takes from the little gold book sheet of
the foil, not with her fingers, but by catch
ing it up with small pad of raw cotton.
Laying down the sheet of pure yellow gold
upon little slab she cuts il into three pieces
with sharp knife. She makes it smooth
by blowing gently upon it with her breath.
One of The pieces she applies to the back of
the cover where the title is to go: another
she also butts on the back where The name of
the author is to be. willie the third biggest
piece is spread over the middle of one flap of
the cover where an ornamental design is
wanted
The operator is very careful in rubbing
Off the gold after each stamping, so as to
lose none of it. AS she uses the leather
tipped stick she permits the yellow stuff TO
fall through crack in the table top into
the drawer beneath in the shape of dust.
1t is allowed to accumulate there until the
drawer is full. The drawer is quite big and
deep, and will hold $4,000 worth of the
dust. You would not imagine it to be
very precious substance if you found
quantity Of it in some odd place it looks as
much like powdered tinsel as anything else.
However, it is worth $50 an ounce, and
when drawer full is collected the gold is
forwarded to the mint in Philadelphia,
which subjects it to assay and sends
check for its value.
The Young woman is held responsible for
the safety of the gold in the drawer. She
carries the key to it about with her always,
and nobody but herself is allowed access to
it. There does not seem to be any reason
why she should not slyly pocket small
quantity Of it occasionally il she desired.
though the number of books of gold foil
charged against her do serve as some SOFT OF
check in the account as to the metal EN-
ployed in this Washington Star.

young couple stood up before him to be
united in the holy bonds of matrimony, says
the Americas (Ga.) Recorder.

After short pause he was about to pro-

minus coat, with unkempt hair, dirty face
and red eyes, arose and blubheringly said !:
Mr.. Preacher L object. Lizzie has prom
ised to marry me. and she has got my ring
on her finger; and cause Bob gave her a
young filly and has new house she has
flung me off,"
The indignant bride retorted by flinging
the ring to him. She then, turning to the
parson, said: Il did net promise to marry
Jake. He gave me the ring and returned
it to him. Wouldn't marry him if he were
the last man under the sum-"
Jake ran out of the church without pick
