patronized by a large number of these people
and an hour or so spent there during the

Large and small Papers.

The newspaper with the smallest
circulation does not exist. At any
rate we have never heard Of it. That
with the largest is the Petit Journal
Of Paris. whose daily edition is over
j, 900, 900 copies. The smallest news
paper in the world, Is regards the
size OF page, is the Telegramo of
Guadalaxara, Mexico -four inches
square. The largest newspaper eve
yet printed in the world was the 1liu-
minated Cuadruple Constellation.
which appeared In New York on In
dependence Day, 1853. Its dimen

.ician who has returned from a trip to
The West. happened to be in a cloth
ing store out there when q party of five
Russians came in. They were all of
pne family-father, mother and chill
dren. The parents purchased clothing
for the three children, and. noticing
with some surprise that they did not
pay for it, l asked the merchant how
he came to trust such rough-loOking
people. He informed me that the
Russian farmers could get anything
they wanted to buy On credit. He had
given Russians credit for 100000 worth
of clothes last year. and he said he
would have been willing to have made
it five times as much. Every other
merchant in the city was the same
way. No one had lost u cent through
trusting these people. They r very
industrious and saving, but live com
fortably. From all that | have heard,

An interesting portion of the dead
letter Office is the room in which an ac-
| emulation is made CT those articles
on which an insufficient amount Ct post
age is paid, or which have been incom-
pletely or wrongly addressed. 1t is a
NEST heterogeneous collection, ranging
In kind from skulls to confectionery,
and in value from | cent to Sl,0U.
Sales Of these articles are held annu-
ally, after they have been held for
claim for over two years, and after
every effort has been exhau-ted to find
the owners, tho parcels become matters
Of public investment. Most of the
packages contain articles Of too small
value to be sold separately, Sd parcels
containing the contents OF several
packages are made up and sold at an
average price of 60 cents each. The
attempt is made to have the articles in
each package worth that amount. II Q
sale is held in December, before the
holiday season, and continues fer about
a week. The proceeds, like the money
found in unclaimed letters, Is delivered
to the third assistant postmaster gen.
eeal for deposit in the United States
treasury.
