When our young samurai reached the
age of seven, 1t was day of great re-

metal swords We're fastened to the obi,
one on each side. The edges, however,
were blunt, and accidents were further
guarded against by having the swords
so fastened in their sheaths that the
young swordsman could not draw them

panions until, at the age of fifteen, the
weapons handed down in his family
took place.

Where the Old Money Goes.


In the United States Bureau Of En-
craving and Printing at Washington
hundreds of thousands of dollars in
torn and soiled bills are destroyed each
day. The money comes from banks in
all parts of the country. is counted by
an expert, is then cut in two, lerg IL
wise. and each half is recounted by
different persons. The money is then
reduced to pulp by disintegrating
chemicals, the bills being thrown into
q large revolving cylinder partially
filled with the chemicals. This process
Is called maceration, and the pulp so
obtained Is pressed into sheets reseIn-
bling white cardboard and is then sold
for about $40 per ton. In this manner
the government pays the expense Of
maceration. The doors to the macera-
tion rooms are carefully guarded and
can be entered only by three officials
who have keys.

Angle worms may be found In any

or bushes are growing, but you must
dig around the roots, the banks Of a
river or lake being capital places for
the search.
Best to capture frogs, search for

which you may tie to n long piece of

you feel tug at the string, slowly pull
