GETTING AND SPENDING.
Americans Make Money, but Do Not
Hoard It.
From the Brooklyn Eagle.

From the Brooklyn Eagle
We are glad to learn from an intelligent
foreigner, DIR. Emil Reich, that we are not
a dollar gra bling people. He has lived
with us for five years, has studied our
ways and he reports to his fellow-Germans
that our faults have been exaggerated. He
says that while ours is the country where
the most money Is earned by the individual.
1t Is also the land where the least value is
attached to it. We hope that this is so.
We have grown so accustomed to seeing
ourselves in European cartoons as too In
tent on stuff1ng our pockets to notice where
our morals were straying to that we had
almost begun to believe that we needed mis-
Sionaries from abroad.
The doctor is both wrong and right. A
conspicuous but hardly representative ele-
ment does devote itself to making money.
and little more 1t Is not Identified with
anything that makes a nation better or
greater. 1t is not active in science, schol-
arship. research or art; 1t is not useful in
industry; 1t does not set any desirable
precedents in fashion and observance; 1t Is
not religious; 1t is never satisfied with it's
material gains. but ever greedy, and never
a whit ashamed Of its greed, reaching after
millions which 1t can never use as eagerly
al If there were not another dollar In the
world. But we have. withal, our generous
millionaires. who more generous than
the rich men Of any other country, and we
have among the common people respect
L.,
makes them different from Europeans of
the same rank who take up their abode
with US.
And in that tendency the doctor has re-
ported rightly. We make more than others,
but we spend both carelessly and for ad-
vantage. The American mechanics home
Is frightened by pictures: well-made furni-
ture, carpets and tableware are for his use;
he has books on the shelf has a parlor
organ, or even a piano: he goes to the play
once in a while, and expects few holidays
In the summer, when he can visit some
crowded seashore. The American profess
sional man lives in his own house or COM
Portable apartments and dresses and lives
nearly up to his income, no matter what it
Is. He is never averse to receiving large
fees, but he Is averse to storing them away
In vaults. And this easy getting and free
spending give to larger view of life
than can obtain among people who are for
ever counting the pennies and trying to
minimize expenditures. Such people will
have few of the wholesome pleasures that
we enjoy and their lives will lack range
and variety The individual who works for
$40 week and saves 50 of it is your true
type of money maker, but he is not an
American.

USES FOR OLD PAPER.
Some is Made Over-Utilized by the
Different Trades.

New uses for old paper are being found
almost daily by the different trades and
by people who have little ingenious turn
OF mind" said a local junk dealer this
morning. You don't see much waste paper
thrown away nowadays. and when you COLI
Steer the great amount that Is daily ac-
cumulating 1t seems remarkable Tho
newspapers are Keeling off tons of paper
every day. All this great quantity of paper
must be destroyed or used. There are
eager scavengers of the city after every
stray paper and bundle of wrapping papar
1T 1t were not 50 the street cleaning de-
partment would have to organize a special
corps of men just to collect newspapers and
burn them
Most of the newspapers are gathered n,
and converted into marketable paper again
ana some go in with the rags to make varf-
Gus kinds of commercial material; but cut
SIDE of these two lines Of Industry the
paper Is made into different useful articles
OF a wonderful nature. The newspapers
are made of the spruce pulp, and by a
steaming process they can be reconverted
into a smaller pulp again. This pulp -
not so good in the first instance and
no one has yet found a way to make IL
possible to use il over again for newspaper
work. However. IL is chewed and steamed
up and is then used for many other pur-
poses. Wood pulp novelties, lead pencil
holders. paper weights and ash receivers
are manufactured from this waste paper.
of course. there are experimental work
ers in waste paper. and some of them are
working problems which appear very
easy Of solution, but which in reality are
most difficult. For instance what seems
easier than to use the paper over again for
printing? Why not boil and steam your
waste paper and roll il through machinery
into new sheets for the daily presses? Moth
ing appears at first sight easier but there
is nothing that seems to give back to the
paper the life which the process of printing
takes from it. 1t IS dead paper 1t lacks
vitality. strength. finish and II Is mixed
with inks and chemicals. If any man can
rejuvenate tie paper and make it fit for
the presses over and over again he will
make a fortune and revolutionize the print
ing business. What boon it would be to
ths newspaper to run its waste paper back
again, and buy in old copies of the early
editions for use in the Sunday editioni Yet
| firmly believe that some day we Will come
to that. Then the price Of newspaper will
go down. No paper company can control
the market of spruce trees then to force up
the price of cheap grade paper. 1t VIII be
a benefit to the publ-sher and the reading
public as we'll Today papers are printed
and sold at a penny copy simply because
papermaking has cheapened the process TO
such a wonderful extent but we have not
vet reached the limits. There more i'm
