An extraordinary incident has occur
red at the United States patent office.
Commissioner Ben B%utterworth pro-
NOTED a woman clerk for her efficient
services in one of his departments. The
promoted clerk shortly afterward called
OH Major Butterworth and fairly cur-
died his blood by asking him TO advance.
instead of herself, another woman clerk
who needed the increased salary more
than she herself did. In all the l21
years of this governments existence no
action of the kind was ever recorded
before, and then it took a woman to do
it. No man would yer have thought of
such q piece of self denial.

American leather will never be as
valuable as tina. from other countries
till American range cattle men cease to
brand a calf's hide all over with marks
TO distinguish its Wherever the
brand touches the skin it becomes useless
for leather purposes. In many cases the
branding process reduces the value of
the hide Is to 20 per cent. American
ingenuity surely ought to be equal to
inventing a way of marking cattle that
will not man their market value.

WEpTSEDAY... JULY II, 1885,


Tho Identification of Il package in
a Chinese laundry as belonging to a
certain ticket holder is simple. The
original ticket is about 4 inches
square, and of pink, blue or green
paper. On one side of this paper are
five characters arranged as r the
five spots on Il playing card. Four
of these characters represent num-
bers or letters, Il on each side of
the ticket. The middle character
may represent anything. When a
customer comes in with a bundle,
the Chinaman takes one of these
tickets. tears it through tho middle
figure, SO that a No. 1 or letter A
may be ON each and Il part of the
middle character on each piece.
When the customer comes in later
with his ticket, the Chinaman match
cs the pieces. To prevent an old
tickets getting Il new wash the
tickets are made each of different
size. New York Sun.

So badness is due to a microbe that
penetrates the follicles at the roots OF
the hair and destroys them? Well, why
do not the doctors inoculate for badness,
if 1t is a germ disease3 Inject into the
head a modified form Of baldheaded
microbe culture. Perhaps then every
tenth hair on a mans head would fall
out, but he would be sure of the rest all
his life. There is another cure for bald
ness that is recommended. A Colorado
man discovered that by working in the
fields bareheaded all one summer he
caused a thick growth of hair to start
upon his Uranium. Harvest work is
nearly here now. 1t is q good time for
the city man to start in.

Madison, who was president from
1909 to 1917, recognized the belligerent
rights of the South American colonies,
which were then struggling to win their
independence from Spain. Monroe, pres
ident from 1917 to 1895, took the next
step aud issued a proclamation recogniz-
ing the actua. independence Of those
colonies. But the whole big United
States government at present seems
afraid to do for little Cuba what, 10
years ago, when we were not a quarter
10 strong as We are now, we did not
hesitate to do for the greater portion Of
South America.
