Douglas ms n Printer.

Stephen y. Douglas, although not
recognized as such by the craft, was a
one time printer. The story of how he
and Long John" Wentworth came to-
gether on printing proposition is still
afioat, hut in such close quarters that
it is not often heard. Mr.. Wentworth
was printing The Democrat in Chicago
in 1898 and struggling TO remove an
Indebtedness of about $4,000. Douglas
called on him one day and said that he
had some handbills that must be print
ed at once.
"AlI right" answered Mr.. Went
worth, "but the facilities of this office
are limited. DO you want ten or hum
dred Of these bills?"
The Little Giant said he believed
200 or perhaps more would he needed.
VERY we'll" was the response. You
will have 10 turn printer yourself if
You expect to get them today"
The bill was set up and placed on the
hand press. Then Douglas was given
special instructions how to handle the
ink roller. \ big apron was put on
him. and he performed the mental
work of roller boy, linking the types.
while AIr. Wentworth worked the

1t has been ascertaireI by a series of
experiments that diamond does not
cut out tine glass. file fashion. but
forces the particles apart. so that Il
continuous crack is formed along the
line of the intended cut. The crack
once begun. very small force is neces-
sary to carry il through the glass, and
thus the piece is easily broken OFF. The
superficial crack or cut need not he

urcments, of 4 twO-hundredth part of
one inch is quite sufficient to accom-
plish the purpose. SO that the applica-
ton of much force in using the dia-
mond only wears out the gem without
doing the work any better.
Numerous stones, such as quartz and
other minerals, when ground into
proper form, will cut glass like dia-
mOEd. but are not so valuable for that
purpose, lacking the requisite hardness
and soon losing the sharp edge neces-
sary to make the operation a success.

An odd Use For the Pin.

An odd use that the pin was put to
long ago was that Of checking the in
temperate habits of the English. st.
Dunstan conceived the idea Of dividing
the tankards out of which the liquor
was drunk into eight equal parts, each
part marked with silver pin. The
cups We're generous affairs, holding
two quarts. Consequently the quantity
from pin to pin was half Il pint, and
the regulation was that the drinker
.''stop at a pin"
Roisterers. however. prevented the
purpose of good St. Dunstan and cstab-
lished the rule OF good fellowship"
by which the drinker was to stop only
at n pin. If he drank beyond. he had
to go on to the next mark. AS it was
difficult TO stop exactly at Il pin the
vain efforts always excited much
mirth, and the trial usually ended with
the draining of the tankard.

Hunters Working For Coronation

The demand for the two furs. ermine
and miniver. for the coming coronation
of King Edward has raised the price
of these commodities to four or five
times the ordinary figure. In view of
the unusual demand the fur companies
have now issued orders to their sta
tons in Hudson Bay territory. Alaska.
and Siberia for their trappers to set to
work to bring i'm pelts as fast as posi-
Bile. says the Chicago Tribune. Miniver

ermine that with Il small tuft at the
end of white tail. The skins are
stretched on birch bark cut from the
trees in lateral sections.

In China the retainers and guards

attached to him. This friend begged
the late ameer in duly submissive
tones to allow him TO perform the OPP

However, the amateur begged the

ameer accordingly touched them light
