Land Of Easy Credit.
From the London Chronicle.


To the Dick SwiveHers Of this or any other
generation Japan is the land of the blest.
For credit abounds there, and cash is never
demanded. In shops shotels, everywhere
there are provided paper tablets, with tear
off leaves and a pencil. Instead of paying
over money the customer is asked only for
a chit-the amount of his purchase and sig
nature. On offering to pay barber for a
shave the answer is: I'VE can't bother max
ing up cash now. Give us a chit and wait
till the end of the month";
For the same simple chit lodgings, meals,
drinks. clothes, ETC., may be obtained Only
the railways demand cash. and among the
Europeans In Yokohama only tourists carry
money. Every one else makes his way with
chits. Two years are generally allowed for
the fulffllment of these promises to nav. and
three years are the limit. But some keep
on emitting for ten years. though the GUS
tom is to pay up monthly or yearly. Despite
the manifold temptations thus afforded. the
number of chits dishonored is relatively
small

WANTED, A PAPER SPOOL.
Problem That Long Puzzled Thread
Makers Said to Have Been Solved.

willimantic, Conn, Letter In New York SUM-
The matter Of making a paper spool that
would be equal If not superior to the wood
en- spool has been studied for many years
and the American Thread Company has
spent considerable money in experiments In
this direction. Until recently all schemes
failed on account of the heavy pressure on
a spool while in the winding machine. Some
time ago the officers of the concern believed
that they had found good practical sub
stitute for the large wooden spool. 1t is
made of paper, is much lighter than the
wooden spool and makes great saving in
freight. But still it has its disadvantages.
Another paper spool has since then come
to light in this city. Spools made on this
system have undergone thorough tests and
found to be able to stand the severest strain
put on them in a thread winding machine.
Unlike other paper spools which are made
from wet paper, this one Is made from dry
paper and is pressed into shape by hy-
draulic pressure of 5000 pounds As to the
paper used, any kind will do. but the max
ers intend to use old newspapers, because
they are cheaper than other waste paper.
II the process of manufacturing the
spools the old papers are run through u
shredding machine that grinds and tears
the paper up so that 1t looks very much
like lint or fine fuzZ. 1t Is then taken In
a perfectly dry state and with giutinous
sizing placed in mold and subjected to
great hydraulic pressure. The spool when
made consists Of two pieces which are
glued together.
One feature of the spool is that no moist
ure of any kind Is used in the process, and
when 1t comes from the press 1t Is as
smooth as glass. The spool manufactured
by the American Thread Company, instead
of being smooth, is rough and has to be
polished. The fuzz, or powdered paper,
from which the spool is, made Is gray be-
for fS pro htIt after ia
spool is the color of rawhfde leather and
looks very much like a wooden spool that
has been vanished. The saving in this
spool over the wooden one is in the cost of
manufacture. 1t weighs as much as the
wooden one and thereby saves nothing on
the freight bills. But the cost OF manufac-
turing Is less than half that Of the wooden
spools The spools made are large ones,
on which a large amount Of thread is
wound. They have not been made yet in
the shape of small ones for retail trade.

A Surprise PARTY.

On the morning of January 10, a
crowd of the Fellsbnrg folk, former
neighbors of Mrs. Tam and Mrs. Fell,
made their way to the latters' homes
in the south side of the county to
work surprise party on them and
show them a good time. And they
succeeded. These ladies had cher
ished the thought of the tried and
true friends in the old neighborhood,
and such substa ntial confederation
of their trust was very gratifying.
To have them turn out on so rough a
morning, and drive that distance
through wind and sand, was proof
enough of their loyalty. They took
possession of Mr.. Tam's house and
sent for the sisters who upon arriving
found the table laden to it's utmost
with good things to eat. The skill
and generosity of the farmers wives
of Fellsburg, in baking and cooking,
are so we'll known that we need not
comment further on the dinner, except
to remark of that indescribable sweet
flavor that is added to the best OF
viands when partaken of in such
happy good feeling.
There were about As persons pres
ent. A few of the old neighbors were
missing, their absence being caused
by sickness. All seemed to enjoy a
pleasant time Mr.. Glasgow, of In
diana. the aged father of Mrs. Tam
and Mrs. Fell, who is spending the
winter with them, remarked that "One
need not hope to meet finer crowd of
people among humanity anywhere.
May their different pathways always
and ever be blest and frightened with
true friends.
