An Immense Fortune In a Floor.

An exchange has thefollow
ing' "The strangely inter-
esting fact is rela ted that a
fortune of many thousand
dolalrs has recently been ex.
tracted from the floors and
rubbish OF a New York bust
ness building. The New York
representatives of the Walth-
am Watch Company for ma
ny years carried on the man.
nfacture Of watch cases on
three floors of this building,
melting from one to hree
thousand dollars worth of
gold every day. A few months
ago they moved to another
place and on their departure
had the floors taken up and
carried to smelling and ref
ming works. There were co..
600 square feet Of lumber
that had been undisturbed
for nineteen years. Special
wagons to transport the tim
Der were built so that no par
ticle should drop to t he
ground. The wood was burn
ed to ashes which were sifted
and the gold was thenextrac
ted by a chemical process.
The result realized by t he
watch firm was about 67,-
900. A fact like this is worth
remembering in connection
with christian life and infu-
ence. There is no waste in
Gods economy. That which
is, as it we're, may be thrown
off from us as we pursue our
rounds in christian service,
these little influences which
we may esteem as little val
ue. God saves up and utili.
zes and makes them tribu-
tary to our own and others
good.

"A large part of the spoiIs
which is supposed to belong
to the victorious political
party is found in the Post
Office Department at Wash
ington, where the records of
the post Offices sea ttered
throughout the country are
kept. Outside of the presi-
dental post Offices which run
into the thousands, there are
sso less than -76, 600 post off.
ces Of the fourth class. Mr..
Stevenson. Vice-President e.
lect, gained a national repu
tation by the ease and celeri.
ty with which he ousted r G.
publicansei eight years ago and
put in theirplaces democra ts.
The sum total of these plac-
es, however, appears much
larger than it really is for
practical purposes. 1t is es-
timatad that no less than one
third of the entire number of
these Offices pay less than
500 per annum. While in
some cases the Importance of
the Office isn't measured by the
salary attached, yet after all
that is what the average po-
litlcaI worker is alter. Count
ing the number Ofoffices that
have a desirable attachment
IN the shape of a comfortable

in this line which interests
