the fact that there are probably more
hogs killed in Chicago and Kansas
City than in any other two places in
the world. But to have long and stiff
bristles the hog must be old, and as
the animals are fattened in this coun-
try by the rapid, rush process, they are
still comparatively young and have
tender bristles when they are converted
into the various products, from sugar
cured hams to fertilizer. The inventive
genius of the American has found
use for everything about hog except
the grunt, but the bristles can be used
only for what is known in the trade as
soft brushes and for tooth brushes
all because the rush system cuts the
porker off too early in his career.-New

UNCLE SANS AUCTION SALE.
Annual Disposal of lhe Accommodations of the
Dend letter Office

Dead Letter Office.
One of the queerest institutions OF
the national capital is the annual cler-
ance sale of the dead letter office, In
which a vast accumulation of articles
gone astray in the mails is sold to the
highest bidders. The auction house
where it is held is continually crowded
with excited men, women and children,
and beside it the bargain counters dur.
ing the holidays are as havens of rest.
for when Uncle Sam goes into the Junk.
shop business great things are expected.
AS in the church fair rattle, you pay a
small amount of money and trust to
luck to get back more than its value.
The articles, previously listed in a
wholesale sort of way, are tied up in
bundless of from three to half dozen
and "auctioned' for what they will
bring. the average bids ranging be.
tween 10 cents and dollar.
Nobody is permitted to examine the
goods before purchasing, and no money
is refunded to the dissatisfied. Every.
body hopes to pull a genuine plum
from the pie in the shape of diamond
ring, silk dress pattern or silver
teapot, and although comparative
blanks are the rule, there is always the
possibility of prize. For example, the
auctioneer holds up one of these odd
shaped bundles, listed pictures, un.

lection of newspaper cuts designed for

of no use to the buyer.
In the dead letter Office proper--that
charnel house which swallows nearly
half million missives every month
is positively narrowing. More than
40 bushels of photographs have accu.

cremation. There are tresses of hair
enough to stuff dozen mattresses,
grandmothers' silver locks and babies
golden curls, many no doubt cut from
dead brows, and small sums of money
which poor workmen send home to
feed their wives and little ones, and
servant girls save from their scanty
wages for needy parents-gone to Uncle

United States wants it, but because the
