A unlque Library.

What is in many respects the finest
collection of American public documents
ever made will form the working library
of the new School of American History
at the University of Pennsylvania. There
are 5000 volumes, and five main divis-
ions. The largest has complete set Of
the laws of the States and Territories
from 1776 down to the present. The
second contains all the United States
Governments publications to date; many
of the volumes are rare, but the set is
almost perfect. Professor john B.
McMaster says that it is second only to
the set in the British Museum. Even
the one il Washington is not so good.
Municipal and town ordinances make up
the third division aud illustrate the
whole growth OF our American municipal
institutions. The 800 volumes OF reports
on State conventions are also unique.
Most are bound regularly, but some are
in newspaper reports, aud some have
been especially reported for this purpose.
The library is completed by a collection
of Canadian Government publications,
said to be equalled only by the one at
Ottawa. Several new departments have
been begun already, notably collection
of the journals of State legislatures. st.

Wonderful Gold.

Gold is so very tenacious that a piece
of it drawn into wire 1-20 OF an inch 10
diameter will sustain a weight of 500
pounds without breaking.
It's malleabiity is SO great that a single
grain may be dividel into 1000, 900
parts, and cubic inch into 9,529, ,S09,-
523 parts, each of which may be dis
tinctly seen by the naked eye. A grain
and half of gold may be beaten into
leaves of one inch square, which, if
intersected by PARALLEL lines drawn at
right angles to each other and distant
only the one hundreth part of au inch,
will produce $4,000, 900 little squares,
each of which may be distinctly seen
without the aid of glass.
The surface of any given quantity of
gold, according to the best authorities,
may be extended by the hammer 80, ,S14
times. The thickness of the metal thus
extended appears to be no more than the
56S, ,02Oth part of an inch. Eight ounces
of this wonderful metal would gild a
silver wire OF sufficient length to extend
entirely around the globe. philadelphia

Ihe Perfect MaY.

There is no other way to teach a child
truthfulness except example. A fact that
parents seldom take into account in the
training of their chiIden IN the ways of
truthfulness is that young child is not
born with an instinct for truth telhny.
The love of truth is an acquired virtue.
A child can have it, but it must be
taught it. And the way to teach truth is
to live it. Never depart from the strict
est truth with child and he will soon
come to know what truth means.
And be patient if his little feet follow
your own truths highway, faltering
sometimes. Remember how perplexed
the little brain must often be betwixt the
world of realities in which he dwelIs
part OF the time and the world of unre-
alities into which his busy imagination
gives him the entree. He spends two
thirds of his waking time in saying that
things are something else. He bitches
chair up with rope and it is fiery steed
or train of cars. Put a big cooked hat
on his head and he straightway becomes
fireman and rescues throng Of stricken
people from a burning building. The
cat is lion or tiger or whale as may
needs be, and the stuffed doll is sick
baby on which the small mother weeps
profusely. In this shadowy, half true
world the little ones live and then sud-
denly one OF their elders swoops
down upon them and demands the sharp
est, most accurate statement OF facts
from a bewildered little mind that can
not even know whether the world of fact
is the one It habitually dwelIs in or not.
The only wonder Is that children are not
all hopeless liars. st. Louis Republic.

the cost OF carriers at the forty-siz
country postoffices, where he tried the
experiment, was S432O for seven months.
This is an average of sl81 per annum for
each postofice. There are 81, 900 fourth
class postoffices in the United States, and
this, in round figures, is the number
where rural delivery would have to be
established to make it complete. This
number would require an expenditure of
about eleven million dollars for carriers
on the scale of expense established by
the experiments. This sum is about
fifteen per cent. of the total receipts of the
Postoffice Department, and it is no
hazard to say that the establishment of
free rural deliveries throughout the
country will increase the receipts much
more than fifteen per cent. With such
success in partial experiment, it goes
without saying that much better results
may be achieved by applying the system
on larger scale.

"lucky" BaIdwln's Barn.

E.J. CLucky') Baldwin is having
architectural plans made for the most
royal barn in this State, and, perhaps, on
the coast. 1t is to be built in his great
Santa Anita ranch, twenty i've miles from
here, and will cost from $40, 900 to $780,
900. 1t will be exactly the kind of a
barn that he has aspired to own all his
life, and will be used as the winter house
of his running horses aud their grooms.
Everything about the barn is to be solid,
elegant and unique, no matter what the
cost. The stalls are to be of polished
oak; the box stalls of stained woods,
handsomely decorated to please critical
eyes of the horses; the grain and feed
boxes will be of iron with nickel plate;
the floors are to be of colored woods;
the harness and blanket rooms will be
finished in oak, cherry and sycamore,
paneled and polished, and the feed ior
the horses is to be warmed or cut or pre-
pared on purely scientific principles by
patent machinery. There are to be many
windows of immense plates of French
glass, so that the beasts may have daily
sun bath, and there is to be small cir
cular track in the basement of the barn
for the exercise Of the horses in inclement
weather; electric bells and lights will be
put in all parts OF the fine barn, and a
marble fountain will play in the court of
the building, probably for the delecta-
tion of "Lucky s. esthetic horses. We
have not learned the character of the
oats to be fed in this equine palace, but
we suppose that nothing but gold oats,
eighteen karats fine, will so there.-

The Treaty Elm.

The historic Treaty Elm," under
which William Penn made his alliances
with the Indians tree as famous in
the annals of Pennsylvania as the
Charter Oak was in Connecticut-was
blown down in 1910, aud in 1927 e
monument was erected to mark the spot.
This memorial, long since forgotten, was
recently hunted up by Phiia ielphia

defaced In an abandoned lumber yard a.

cred in the neighborhood who knew any
thing about the monument or its history,
and many people interviewed by the re-
porter were ignorant even OF the name Of
