THE "WELCHER" WORKED 'EM

One of our readers who for many
years has been employed as a plain
clothes constable and in that capacity
has been present at many of the princi-
pal race meetings at Epson, sends us
the following account of one of his ad-
ventures. He writes: One of the most
impudent robberies / ever saw occurred
at EPSON on Derby day several years
ago. / was walking on The Hill-in
multi. of course-keeping a sharp look
out for the three-card and thimble-rig-
ging gentlemen, but for a wonder, that
year they seemed conspicuous by their
absence. AS the time fixed for the de-
cision of the big race approached, /
drew nearer to the rails. in hopes of
catching a glimpse of the horses as
they flashed past, and amused myself
by watching the people tumbling over
each other in eager struggles to back
their fancies.
The Outside" betting fraternity mus
tered in strong force. and as each leath-
er-lunged boolxie strove to make him
self heard above the Babel of his breth-
rem, the uproar. as usual, became abso-
lutely appalling when added to the
blare of the merry-go-round trumpets
and the creaking of the swing-boats.
In those days, before an effort had
been made to suppress lists, stands
and huge umbrellas, the devices used
by many OF the silver bookmakers for
the purpose Of attracting attention,
were Ingenious in the extreme.
On that account one fellow in partic-
ular had hit upon a method of self-ad-
vertisement which was securing him an
enormous amount of custom.
On his stand, brilliant, yellow-color-
ed structure some eight feet in height,
was emblazoned an American eagle,
draped with the STARRY Flag" Under

Go Well Dressed.

The New York correspondent Of the
Philadelphia Ledger, says As well
known banker alighted from his carriage
in Wall street yesterday an old merchant
turned to your correspondent and said !:
81 remember the time when mau credit
would have suffered if a business man
came to his Office in carriage. In those
days one was looked upon with suspicion
if he carried cane, unless he was actual
ly lame. A man would have had difficulty
in arranging loan at his bankers if he
wore moustache, as it was considered the
appendage of sport. l well remember
that when as young man, began to
cultivate the growth of hair on my upper
lip, my employer gave me friendly warm
ing. Yet one could then 60 to business
in what is now evening dress, and yet be
considered as properly, though elegantly
attired. Now man would be hooted at
in the streets if he should wear his even
ing dress in the daytime. But times have
changed greatly, or rather fashion has, for
human nature is the same. After long
business career my deliberate judgment is
that it pays to wear good clothes, fashion
ably made. / remember when as a boy |
began my business career at SO week. l
was sent on an errand To- the swell tailor 5
establishment of the city. After l had done
my errand the tailor looked me over, and,
noticing my country made clothes, said to
me that l ought to order new suit, l
explained to him my financial condition,
when he said to me kindly, My boy,
whatever it might cost, it would be the
best business investment you could make.
With fashionably cut garments on, your
own confidence and self-esteem will be en-
hanced, and other people will think better
of you;' and he generously offered to
make me suit and let me pay for it when
ever l could, or not at ALL He was right.
1t was as good an investment as l could
have made, for believe the habit it gave
me of always wearing good clothes helped
me immensely in my business career. l
traded with that tailor for over thirty
wears. -

Making of PING.
From the Dry Goods Economist.

There is scarcely a woman living who
does not use the common and everyday pin
every day more or less, but few, however,
ever think how it is made. To complete
a pin it has to 60 through many hands
before it is ready for the consumer. 1t is
very delicate article to handle, and the
cost of building the machines to make it is
the greatest outlay. The wire from which
these pins are manufactured is specially
prepared, and comes to the factory on large
reels very much like gigantic cotton spools
The wire is first turned through eight
or ten little copper rollers. This is to get
all the bend and kink out of it; in other
words, to straighten it perfectly. After
this preliminary operation is completed it
is once more wound on a very large reel,
which is attached to the machine that
makes the pins. One of these machines
makes on an average 5000 pins an hour,
and some large factories will often have
thirty or forty machines at work at one
time. After the pins are released from
the grip of this machine they are given a
bath of sulphuric acid, This removes all
the grease and dirt from them.
They are then placed in tub or barrel
of sawdust Pins and sawdust are next
taken together from the barrel and allowed
to fall in a steady thream through strong
air blast, which separates the sawdust from
the pins. But as yet they are pointless,
and pins without points would not be of
much use In order to point them they
are carried on an endless grooved belt,
which passes set of rapidly moving files.
This points them roughly, and, after being
passed between two grinding wheels and
forced against rapidly moving band faced
with emery CLOTH they are dipped in
polishing tub of oil. This latter is large,
slowly revolving, copper-lined tub, which
is tilted at an angle of about 40 degrees.
As this revolves, the points keep sliding
down the smooth copper to the lower side,
and, owing to the constant friction against
the copper and each other, receive a
brilliant polish and finish.
They go next to the sticker, where they
fall from hopper on an inclined plane, in
which are number of Sits The pins
catch in these slits, and, hanging by their
heads, slide down to an apparatus which
inserts them in the paper. This machine
is perhaps the most ingenious of all the
beautiful and complicated contrivances that
help to make and manipulate the pin. 1t
does all this at the rate of 100, 200 pins
an hour, and yet single bent or damaged
pin will cause it to stop feeding until the
attendant removes the offender. The pins
are then stuck into the papers by the ma
chine, which is usually operated by a
skilled girl, and then they are ready for
shipment to all parts of the civilized world,
where the common, but necessary, pin is a
factor

Be a Good Reader.

D
There is one accomplishments in particular
which | would earnestly recommend to you !:
Cultivate assiduously the ability to read
well. | stop to particularize this, because
it is SO very much neglected, and because
it is an elegant, charming and lady-like
accomplishment Where one person is
really interested in music, twenty may be-
come good readers. Where there is one
occasion for the exercise of musical talent,
there are twenty for that of good reading.
The culture of the voice necessary for
reading well gives delightful charm to
the same voice in conversation, Good
reading is the natural exponent and vehicle
Of all good things. 1t is the most effective
of commentaries upon the work Of genius
1t seems to bring dead authors to life
again, and makes us sit down Familiarity
with the great and good of all ages. Did
you ever notice what life and power the
Holy Scripture has when well read? Have
you ever heard of the wonderful effects
produced by Elizabeth Fry on the prisoners
Of Newgate by simply reading to them the
parable of the Prodigal Son? Princes and
peers of the realm, it is said, counted it a
privilege to stand in the dismal corridors
and among felons and murderers merely to
share with them the privilege of witnessing
the marvellous pathos which genius, taste
and culture could infuse in that simple
story What fascination there is in
really good reading What a power it
gives one In the hospital, in the cham
ber of the invalid, in the nursery, in the
domestic and social circle, among chosen
friends and companions, how it enables
you to minister to the amusement, the
comfort, the pleasure of dear ones, as no
other art of accomplishment can. No in
strument of man devisiug can reach the
heart as does that most wonderful instru-
ment, the human voice 1t is Gods
special gift and endowment to his chosen
creature Fold it not away in napkin.
If you would double the value of all your
other acquisitions, if you would immeasura-
bly, add to your own enjoyment aud to
your power of promoting the enjoyment of
others, cultivate with incessant care this
divine gift No music below the skies is
equal to that of pure silvery speech from
the lips Of man or woman of high culture.

He Got Judgment.

A Washington attorney is rather noted
for the faculty with which he forgets
financial obligations He has owed a
certain grocer sS for year or two. The
other day the merchant concluded to try

me small bill and has owed it for long
time. He makes plenty of money, but
won't pay. What would you do?'
ssq'd sue him, said the lawyer EN-.
phatically.
