THE FIGURE .es.,,

The figure 9 in our dates will make a long stay
No man or woman now living Will ever date a.
document without using the figure 9. It stands
in the third place in $780, where it viii remain ten
years and then move up to second place in 1900
where it will rest for one hundred years.
There is another ''9' which has also come to stay
1t is unlike the figure in dates in the
that it has already moved up to first place. where
it will permanently remain. 1t is called the $40
81 High Arm Wheeler & Wilson Sewing Machine.
The mo. 9''was endorsed for first place bvs the
experts Of Europe at the Paris Exposition Of 1859.
where, after severe contest with the leading ma;
chimes of .he world, it was awarded the only
Grand Prize given to family sewing machines, al,
others on exhibit having received lower awards
OF gold medals. etc. The French Government
also recognized superiority by the decoration of
Mr.. Nathaniel Wheeler. President of the company
with the Cross of the Legion of Honor.
The ssNo 9" is not an old machine improved
upon. but Is an entirely new machine. and the
Grand Prize at Paris was awarded it as the grand
est advance in sewing machine mechanism of the.
age. Those who buy it can rest assured, there.
fore, OF having the very latest and best.

Making NickeIs And Pennies.

The copper used in the manufac-
ture of pennies is of the very best
quality, and is from the Calumet &
Hecla Mining Company on Lake >Su-
perior. The METALS shipped in bulk
from the mines to the factories OF
Merchant & Co., in Connecticut.
There it is rolled and stamped out
in circles of the requisite size, says
The Philadelphia Inquirer. These
circles are perfectly plain, with the
exception of the raised or milled edge.
At this stage the pieces intended for
pennies are as bright as gold pieces,
while those Intended for nickels re-
semble highly polished silver. In
this condition they are delivered to
the mint. Ofcourse, it is absolutely
necessary that all the pieces should
be of uniform size and weight.
The transfer from the factory to
the mint is made, and the mum Der Of
pieces in a package is reckoned by it's
weight. Tofnd out how many small
coins the amount OF nickel and COP
per contracted for at present will
make, multiply the number of pounds
OF copper by 100 and the number of
pounds of nickel by seventy.
This calculation will show that the
metal now about to be made up into
coin will make $4,000 nickels and
100000 pennies. One hundred pen
MES. therefore, weigh exactly one
pound.
When these pieces reach the mint
they are subject to the finishing pro-
cess, which consists in stamping them
with the denomination, lettering and
characters seen on the coins, when
they reach the public. Toaccomplish
this, great pressure is needed, as the
pieces are not heated again after leav-
ing the factory.
The amount of pressure required is
simply enormous, considering the
size of the pieces The copper pen
MES require a pressure of ten tons
avoirdupois, while with the nickel
pieces it is necessary to put on a pres
sure of from twelve to fifteen tons.

The Cars Flight.

The hurried flight of the Russian
court from Gatschina to Peterhot
was due to an alarming discovery
that mysterious excavations had
been made in cellar under the i'm
perial apartments at the former resi-
dence, and a suspicion of dynamite
was at once aroused. The emperor
is in such a state of apprehension
that henow only eats food which has
been prepared in a kitchen that adj
joins his library. The cook is French,
and he works under the superintend-
ence Of the Empress, who passes q
great deal of her time each day in
preparing her husband IS food. Every
conceivable precaution is taken to
protect the emperor against poison,
and he has ceased to eat eggs since
somebody discovered that they can
be poisoned by the insertion of a
needle, which does not perceptibly
break the shell. Uneasy, indeed, is
the head that wears a Russian crown.

YANKEE SPIRIT.
An English Mothers Admission as to Her
Americap-Born Son.

Now and then one hears more OF less
discussion as to what constitutes the
Yankee spirit say the Youths Com
paaaao1e, but, like many other common
phrases, this one seems to elude the eff
forts of the deiner and to be always in
the air. The one thing always agreed
upon is that to be a real Yankee one
must be good at a bargain, and if this is
not very definite it is at least some
thing.
There is a small boy in the nighbor-
hood of Boston whose mother is En-
glish, while his father is a New En-
glander. The parents have often laugh
ingly debated whether the lad was or
was not a genuine Yankee, but it was
only the day after last Christmas that
they were able to agree in the matter.
That day the boy was for some time
missing, and the whole family became
much alarmed about him. The serv-
ants were sent to the neighbors, the
house was thoroughly searched, the
well looked into, and as a last resort
the policemen of the village were
called upon to aid in discovering the
truant.
When matters had gone as far as
this the boy himself was seen coming
across the lawn in a draggled and evil
IDENTIFY exhausted condition. but waiy-
ing his hand with an air of triumph.
Il got 30 cents, mamma!' he shouted,
as his anxious mother came fastening
out to meet him.
Thirty cents!' she repeated in as
tonishment. How did you get 80
centsp''
Why with my organ, Of course, .
he answered, and he showed her
strapped upon his back, toy organ
which had been among his Christmas
gifts. I've been playing way down
to the other end of the town.
The English mother looked at the
eager little fellow, divided between a
desire to laugh at the droll situation,
the feeling that she should reproye the
runaway. and the relief she felt at see
ing the little fellow safe.
George she said, turning to her
husband, who had come up in time to
hear his sons words, you are right.
