Dollars Two Miles High.

american people are 80 used to
talking of large sums of money" said a
bank director yesterday, THAT they really
have no adequte conception of the large
values that fall glibly from their tongues
"We speak of half or quarter mill
lion dollars as a trifling circumstance,
while to say that so and 30 was worth q
million conveys to our mind little or
nothing. Now, take 81 ,000, 900, for illus.
tration. What is your notion of the
height thereof, supposing the money all
to be in silver dollars, piled one upon
another?"
The friend addressed closed his eyes
meditatively, and said slowly:
"a million silver dollars, one piled on
another, would make column about
1000 feet high.
"That's just what l thought" said the
spokesman smiling. "Now, then, if |
should tell you that million dollars,
piled one upon the other would make a
glittering silver column nearly TIVE miles
high, you would probably be incfined
for the instant to tell me I was imposing
on you. But figure it out for yourself.
Ten silver dollars make an inch; $Q20
make foot; 1000 feet means sl20,00o5 :
$3.50 feet, or mile, means, approximate.
ly S50O0OO; hence $1,000,000 would
represent column two miles high. OF
course, this overruns somewhat, but the
general result is near enough for all
practical purposes. So you see, my boy,
when you hear that so and so wa5 worth
only one poor little million dollars, do
not be ready to underestimate the value
thereof. I tell you, when you think
candidly on the subject, you cannot but
be impressed at this gigantic sum; and
the wonder is, to my mind, that so many
ofus are lucky enough to accumulate

Strange Uses For Paper.
a SUBSIITUl FOR IRON AND STEEL
PAPER HOUSE AND A PAPER
ORGAN.

Paper is now made to serve for street
and iron. When strong fiber is used IL
can be made into substance so hard
that 1t can scarcely be scratched. Rail
road car wheels can be made of it more
durable than iron. A store in Atlanta
ga, has been built entirely of paper.
The ratters, weather boards, roofing
and flooring are all made of thick com
pressed paper boards, impervious to
water. On account of the surface of
the paper being smooth and hard it
cannot catch on fire as easily as a
wooden building. 1t is found warm
IN cold and cold in warm weather.
The Breslau fireproOf chimney has
demonstrated that cooking and heat
ing stoves, bath tubs and pots, when
annealed by process that renders it
hreproof, become more lasting than
iron and will not burn out. Cracks in
floors around the skirting board, or
other parts of room, may be neatly
filled by thoroughly soaking newspa-
per in paste made as thick as putty
and forced into the cracks with a paste
knife. 1t will soon harden and can be
painted.
Black walnut frames are made of pa
per and so cOlored that no one can tell
them from original wood. A paper
piano has lately been exhibited in Pa
rls. The entire case is made of COM
pressed paper, to which is given hard
surface, cream-White brilliant polish.
The legs and sides are ornamented
with arabesques and floral designs.
The exterior, and as much of the in
terror as can be seen when the instru-
ment is open, are covered with
wreaths and medalliOns painted in
miniature.
An Italian monk has succeeded in
constructing an organ where the pipes
are made of paper pulp. It has 400
pipes of various sizes. The American
COttenseed Oil trust are now running
a mill for making paper from the hulls
remaining after the oil has been suueez-
ed out of the cottonseed. They are con-
templating the erection of a IOO-ton
mill for the same purpose. These
hulls have heretofore been considered
worthless. 1t has so far proved so
successful that the Trust purpose erec-
ting mills at different points in the
cottOn-raising country. OF course
this will somewhat reYolutionize the
paper trade.
A new mill for the manufacture of
paper from moss has been recently es-
tablished in Sweden. Paper of differ
ent thickness and pastebOard made of
1t have already been shown, the latter
even in sheets three-quarters of an
inch thick. 1t is as hard as wood and
can be easily painted and polished. 1t
has all the good qualities, but none of
the defects of wood.
The pasteboard can be used for door
and window frames, architectural or
naments and all kinds of furniture.
The ceiling of the Assembly Chanber
at Albany, n. Y, is made of paper
mache. 1t is model of its kind, and
appears SO like marble as to deceive
the most expert eye. The latest idea
is to use paper instead of wood for
lead pencils, by using patent prepa-
ration by which 1t can be cut as easily
as the sOftest wood.

An Object Lesson in Three
Words.

The other day one of our instructors
in primary knowledge found a scholar
whose dullness needed some special
enlightenment, and she therefore call
ed the child to her desk to see what
moral suasion could do. After plead
ing elOquently for the space of twenty
minutes, and believing she had made
an impression, she said NOW, Willie.
l want you to go to your seat and
write on your slate whatever you see
in this room. No matter what it is,
write it down. That will be a good
beginning. But the yOungster contin-
ued to gaze into vacancy and no
marks followed on the slate. Finally
his teacher said, in tones ofcommand
"You must write What are the OBJ
jects you see? Write on your slate
and bring it here" Thus admonished,
the boy wrote and handed up his
work. 1t consisted of three words

Peaches and Resolutions.

ne proceedings Of 4 meeting of the
hent County Grange at Dover. Last
week, illustrate the prevailing craze
among certain associations of farmers
TO assume the functions of Legislators.
ana to abandon agriculture for politics
and political economy. Resolutions
were passed protesting. on the ground
OF existing OVerprOduction of certain
agricultural products. against annro-
prlauons by Congress for the purnose
OF irrlgatlng Western lands; favoring
control by the Government of railroads
telegraph lines, and the insurance and
banking business; and demanding ma.
tional legislation against trusts and
combinations.
a committee was appointed ITO con-
slder what new crops we can. this
year at least, substitute for the peach
crop. This committee, however.
ialled TO bring in report.
Yet one would think that the subject
In which the Kent county farmers
would be most interested would he
the crops and the selection of a substi.
tute for the peach crop this wear.
Ihere are good reasons why the Gov.
eminent should not 90 into the irriga-
ton ditch business, but lust at present
there seems TO be no especial cause for
alarm about irrigation. The ReDubli-
cans are forcing Wyoming and Idaho
upon the Union, not for the purpose of
watering arid lands, but to water the
Electoral College. And would peach
crops he bigger, and potatoes yield
more To the hill, if the Government
should become the proprietor of the
railroad, telegraph banking, and in
surahce business? Do the Kent
county grangers really think that thew
could get lower rates and better SER
vice from the railroads and the tele.
graph companies ifthese were managed
by Government Oficeholders ? DO
they really think that they could bor-
row money more easily, insure their
lives and their property more cheaply,
II all the banks and the Insurance.
companies were parts of the Federal
machine? And how deep down into
Its pocket would Kent county like to
go Tor the sake of paying it's share of
the increased taxation which would be
necessary to set the Government up
IN every branch of businessP They
know, In fact, that the Government as
farmer would he an expensive and a
dreary failure. Is it any more difficult
to carry on farm than to carry on
railroads or banks?
The Kent County Grange would
nave been more practical if the com.
mlttee on substitute for the peach
crop had reported, and some other res
olutlons had not been reported. Social
ism Is no substitute for peaches.-N.
