Absence of Italian Farm Homes.

The absence of homes, and especially
of farm houses, in all Apulia, intensifes
the sadness of the landscape. There Is
not a farmhouse, as we know it, IN
Italy. There are, miles apart, huge, low,
prison-like stone structures called
tsmasserie," where the landowners
superintendent, an ignorant, lily paidll
bestial fellow himself, cares for num-
Der of the animals needed in the fields
and where the "massara" Qiterally, field
house women) cooks the little needed fo1
the laborers. These ''masserie" are the
ugliest one-story stone buildings imIi
aginable. They are invariably set on an
elevation to escape as much as possible
the universal malaria. QuadrilateraA
stone walls perhaps thirty feet squM
rise seven or eight feet high. A porti9A
of the front will be covered with an
almost fiat metal or slate roof. Thsn
from the rear WILL vaulted arches extena
toward the front. These usually contai1
three compartments. One, the best 81
all, is provided with stone managers Ell
tending all around it for oxen, horses oN
donkeYs; in another, the 'smassaraa
warns the slop given the laborers; and II
the last are stone benches on which tha
laborers take their midday siesta and
sleep at night. These swarm with verml9S
are filthier and more desolate than any
prison known to man; and stand u1S
relieved by vine, shrub or tree, repulslyS
and forbidding silhouettes OF stone
against blue Italian sky. IL
Five other characteristic features 9s
southern Italian pastoral scenery suggest
as with the "massarie," human activltlss
and contiguity to human habitationsg
only to emphasize the saddening lonelss
ness of Italian country scenes. These afA
the .saja," or raised earthern or stons
threshing floor, shaped like holloT
truncated cone, where the grain is trod
out by blindfolded oxen; the cisterna, oH
cistern, for collecting rain water for t9s
focks for use in time of summer drougn1ss
huge structures sunken fully ten feet
beneath the surface, with exposed wallss
as high as ones head. averaging fifty feet
in width and 2OU in length, with an an5
cient windlass in the peak of one end o.
the low roof; the rough, white stone ,ls
walls which divide fields like endless BARI
ricadcs; the "cassellc," mortarless ci1c9a
lar huts of stone, surmounted by rude
crosses, in which the fcld-guards and
watchers find shelter, recalling the ghost
" sentry-houses among the bleach-greea1sss 1ss
in the north of Ireland; and the "raas
turo," broad grass-grown highway
which for 1000 years has served in differ t,i;3
ent localities, like the vast stocktrai!lss
leading "from grass to grass" when westa q
ern herds are driven northward, for ths
yearly exodus of Apulian herds to mount3
ain summer pastures. Commercial as

Ir is told in the Kansas City Times
that Mr.. Charles Francis Adams is now
reviewing and destroying the diary
which, like Lis forefathers, he has faith
fully kept for many years. When his
wife, who is deeply interested in the
record Of the days before the marriage
"a record which, by the way, she has
never ecn-remonstrated with him fol
burning up the diary, he replied: 81
didn't know what colossal fool was q
quarter OF century ago." The other
evening as President Adams sat by tile
open fireplace tossing the white pages
OF the diary into the flames, one by one,
he read to a party Of friends an account
OF an interview q quarter of q century
ago. It was something like this
"Reached Washington early this morn

This, however, is by no means SIM
plc operation. The different dies which
make up the complete plate must first be
transferred to a cylindrical steel roll
separately. They must then be laid
down, or "assembled'' upon a single
steel plate or bed-piece. Upon this bed
piece the various parts Of the note ap-
pears in intaglio, from which the I'M
preston is transferred to steel rolls of
proper width, which is usually sufficient
to contain four notes. The plates are
lettered from A. to D., and this is an
other check upon counterfeiting as the
numbers must correspond to these letters.
The last operation to which the plates
are subjected before they go to the print
ing room is the hardening process. TINS
is done in various ways by an application
of heat and chemicals. The plates are
then cleaned, waxed and laid away till
they arc needed by the printer.
The paper used by the Treasury De-
partment for its bills and notes is manu-
featured by private concern, and upon
its delivery is counted twice and packed
away in sections of from four to forty
sheets after it has been damped.
Several different kind Of presses arc
used in the printing division. The old
fashioned hand-plate press and steam
presses of the latest and most improved
patterns are employed. Each press is
provided with register, which records

Take the work in the engraving divl-
sion of the Government Bureau of En-
craving and Printing, for instance, as
this is where the manufacture of paper
money begins. No one engraver ever cuts
the entire plate from which bank note
is printed. For instance; one man en-
graves the portrait, another does the let
tering of the inscription; a third the
counters that indicate the denomination
of the note: another section of the or
namental border, for this is never en-
graved in full; still another is engaged
on the seal, and finally the work of all
must be carefully scrutinized and the fin
ishing touches added before the plate can
be sent to the printer.
The reason why so much care is neces-
sary is to guard against counterfeiting,for
the more perfect the plate is in every
part, the more difficult it is for one or any
number of persons to initiate it.
1t sometimes takes the engraver six
weeks to finish up portrait, and after
that he must put in the background,
which consists of close network of the
finest spider web lines, made by ruling
machine with diamond point.

churn, and dress tho baby;
] make the dust and dry leaves fly
Against my new broom fairly,
] chatter, chatter as go,
Because ! rest 80 rarely;
For men may come and men may CO.
But go on forever, ever,
go on forever"
fmove about and In aud ont,
While here the chickens feeding,
And here and there ut hawk 20 shouts
But little they are needing.
Iwalk, ] run, skip, hop
From one thing to another;
stop to dress q brui6e or cut,
For the children run to mother.
Then to the garden must go
To see what work is needed,
For plants must be set out, you know,
And then they must be weeded.
For men can't stop, for they must so,
But we work on forever, ever,
We work on forever.
Iscrape thetray and put to rights'
The dininG-room and kitchen,
then 60 in my room to sew
And try to do some stitching.
Iwonder if there is on earth
No respite from our labors,
No time TO so and gossip some
With pleasant, friendly neighbofs.
Before end this piece OF work,
And try to think O little,
throw it down and run and make
A fire, and put on the kettle.
For men must eat and so, you know,
But women can go, never.
Yes, men viii come, and men WIZ So
But we work on forever, ever,
We work on forever.
