PRESIDENT ROOSEVELT
 HAS A PAY MASTER

President Roosevelt gets his salary the last day of every month. It is taken to the White House by messenger from the treasurer's office in the shape of a check, and handed over to the official who has been directed 10 look after it.
 The presidents salary of S50,- 900 a year is divided into eight checks of S4, ,166.67 each and four checks of S4, ,166.66 each, Two months out of every three the president gets a check for the larger sum and the other month he gets 1 cent less on his check. This has been the custom for many years, and a mistake was never made but once. That was dur ing the second administration of President Cleveland. One month when his check should have been S4, ,166. 67, the bookkeeper made it out for only S4, 166.66. When the books were balanced at the end of the fiscal year it was found that the president was due 1 cent by the government. The officials, with great solem nity, made out q check on the United States treasurer for this amount

and forwarded it to Mir. Cleveland. Because it was the smallest sam warrent was. ever drawn for upon the government 1t was kept as souvenir and was never presented. If the ex- president desires to do so at any time it will be promptly cashed.
 President Roosevelt's checks are taken to the White House by the same mes senger each time. His name is William R. Padgett He is employed in the 'treasurer's office. He was for long time a sergeant in Battery A, Fourth United States Artillery, and serv- ed in the army at different points. He served in the marine corps prior to enlisting in the army and went all over the world. His ser- vice to the government was honest and faithful throughout aud his record, when he gave up his uniform, was good. He delights in going to the White House with the check of the president and takes as much care of it as if he were handling as much cash
 Padgett lives in Alexandria Va, being a Virginian by birth

You Did Not Know It.

You have, no doubt, often heard that the Tyler Com mercial College was a big institu : tion, but here are facts you did not know. Read them. The school is located on one of the highest points in the city of Tyler, Texas; this city is on the highest point between the Cult and Red River, and is 100 feet higher above sea level than San An- tonic, and about 200 feet higher than Ft. Worth. It is most healthful and beautiful city of over 10000 inhabitants. It has no saloons or gambling houses. The healthful and moral con. ditions are to be considered when selecting a school to attend. No other commercial school building in the south is as we'll lighted and ventilated as the Tyler Com mercial College building. It is scientifically ventilated and lighted. Classes are called and dismissed by electric bells, every recitation room is connected with every other one, and the private office by an interior telephone system of our own.
 The Tyler Commercial College Employment Bureau has received 26 calls for it's graduates during i the past two weeks, to take positions as bookkeepers, stenog- raphers and operators, at from $50 to S75 per month. Our En- ployment Bureau records show not a single graduate of Book keeping and Shorthand ready for a position but what has been placed.
 Young people, this should en- courage you to take course in Bookkeeping and Shorthand, or Telegraphy with us, for just so sure as you finish your course, just so sure will you be of secur- ing employment at 8 good salary { Remember we enrolled more than 1000 students during the past year from 20 different states, and then were not able to turn out suf- ficient number of gradu ates to accept the positions that were of- fered us. Address the Tyler Commercial College of Tyler, Texas, today, asking them to send you free catalogue, or better still, buy a ticket to Tyler, Texas, and upon yonr arrival, go direct to the College, where you will be given prompt attention and choice of nice boarding place at from
