(Engraver Puts His Name and Alphabet
in Small Space.)

| IN small SpaCe.)
pinhead to add his name young" i,
| one corner.
Even by the experts of the burea,
the engraving on the pin was consid
cred as an exceptionally fine and diff
cult piece of work, and it was regarded
by his friends and those not familiar
with the engraver's art as a curiosity
Recently there was renewal Of
discussion at the bureau concerning
the delicate work that could be done
with the engraver's tools. Some of the
experts-and there are some very
clever men in Uncle Sans money fac
tory-asserted that they could dupli
cate Mr.. Young's performance, and
one or two did engrave the alphabet
on pinheads. Then Mr.. Young looked
at the matter seriously for the first
time. He decided that if there was to
be any real rivalry on the subject and
any attempt to duplicate his feat he
would set mark for his fellow work
men that would make them sit up and
take notice in earnest.
His experience in engraving the
first pinhead had convinced him that
with more care, more delicate tools
and even more time, he could excel
his first performance by good deal
So he secured very small pin-less
than an inch long, with tiny head
less than one-sixteenth of an incn
across and began his task, taking a
halt day off for the purpose. He
worked just one afternoon and when
he put his tools away that night he
had engraved total of 81 letters on
the surface OF the tiny pinhead.
TO the naked eye. the pinhead bear
ing the double alphabet, the date and
the name looks but little different
from an ordinary pinhead. Its surface
is trife rough and that is all. Even
with an ordinary magnifying glass
very little can be seen. The outlines
of the letters are jumbled and the
surface of the pinhead simply appears
to be badly scratched. But with q
powerful glass the letters stand out
by themselves distinct and separate.
Each one is at approximately the
same distance from its neighbor, the
lines are clear and distinct and the
letters perfectly formed. One alpha
bet and the date occupy one-half of
the surface of the pinhead and an
other alphabet and the name Young"
the other half.
There is no, jumbling or blurring
and a glance at the pinhead with the
naked eye and then q glimpse Of 1t
through a powerful magnifying glass |
cannot fail to impress the observer |
with the wonderful degree of pro-
iciency and skill, the keenness of
vision and the steadiness of hand
to the successful perform
lnce of SO remarkable and unique a
eat. i 4, i d
Mr.. Young considers his work as
more of a curiosity than az a piece of
perfect lettering, as the surface of
lie pin was so rough and uneven that
,erfection in the latter respect could
'ot possibly be obtained. !
