consists of four sets of twenty-four let

When one letter is used in one alphabet
and another in a second set, and so on,
it becomes a most complicated matter.
Then there is the initial problem of
which language it has been keyed i'll,
to be solved by the man that attempts
to open the safe. Furthermore, instead
of letters the inventor, one Neuman To

AMERICAN MASTEFuLNESS.
We Act as if We Thought Our Resources
Were Inexhaustible

Instances of American wastefulness
abound on every hand, but there is no
better example than is afforded by the
devastation of the forests. says the Colo
RADIO Springs Gazette. Untold millions
OF board feet Of timber are left every
year by lumbermen to rot on the ground
or in stumps, and quantities almost as
vast are destroyed by forest fires.
1t was scarcely a decade ago that the
forests OF the United States were be-
heved to be inexhaustible, but now
everybody who knows anything of the
subject is aware that they are going so
rapidly that their complete extinction is
matter of only few years.
This fact is realized by the railroads.
the great numbering concerns and other
extensive users of timber, and some of
them are taking steps to replace the for
ests already destroyed. But from the
planting of the seed to the cutting of the
matured tree is long time to wait
from twenty to thirty years-and in the
meantime where is the country to look
for its lumber supply?
The deposits of minerals and metals
are going the same way. In an address
to the Columbia university graduates in
science the other day DR.. James Douglas
said that the ''monstrous wastefulness"
of the mining methods in vogue in this
country would soon bring about the ex-
haustiOn OF those resources which we
have fondly regarded as inexhaustible."

Mr.. Rockefeller was speaking about
the value of little things-spare minutes,
spare pennies, and so on.
HE told us how one of the littlest
things, in the human line, that he has
ever seen-a little new office boy-had
caused him. at the beginning of his ca
reer, to distrust bookkeeper who after
ward turned out to be an untrustworthy
man.
This boy had come to work in Mr.
Rockefeller's office. He was bright
little fellow, and the chief liked his
looks.

Rockefeller was starting out to collect
a bill, he said kindly to the little boy:
Il suppose the bookkeeper has told
you what to do this afternoon?'
