Holy Rood dates from the twelfth
century. The exact year is uncertain,
but 1928 is generally accepted as ap-

According to the legend King David
/. who was hunting in the no!gh .orinE
forest. was attacked by a stag. which
had been brought 10 bay by tho hunt
ing party. He was thrown to the
ground by the furious animal and was
In imminent danger Of death.
Suddenly says the Rosary Magazine
q cross arose from the ground between
the form of the beas. and the mon
arch; and the stag, afrrlghted. fed.
Ths cross remained on the spot Ite
material substance was mystary to
those who examined it.
The occurrence was looked upon as
miraculous. In gratitude to heaven the
King ordained tat a Shrine should
arise on the ground adjacent He de-

Thus the increase in the case Of men
is Il z per cent, and that in the case
of women. l6 per cent. Mr.. Kure. who
has gathered these statistics, thinks
this comparatively large ratio on the
side Of women is due 10 the new method
Of education. and to the fact that mod
srn conditions bring women into the
struggle for a livelihood side by side
with the men.
As to the time of year when suicides
are most frequent I'm Japan, the inter
val from April to September Is indi-
Gated, and within that period. again. the
months of May. June, and July have the
worst record.
Hanging is the method most often re-
sorted 10. Men choose hanging and fe-
males drowning. For every 60 deaths
by hanging on the side of men there
were only 81 on the side of women.
whereas for every al men who destroy
ed themselves by drowning there were
Js women
The causes Of suicide, as ascertained
from G2.0o0 cases Of men and $4,000 of
women were:

Only Two Apprentices.

You can have only two apprentices"
say the engravers. And their say goes.
An right says Uncle Sam. And that
settles it.
The people Of the United States wear
out enough paper money every day In
the week. Sunday included. 10 fill ore
Of the largest baskets ever manufactured.
1t is not because the paper Is tender, nor
are the people careless. It is simply the
wear and tear on the bills. And. as a
result. Uncle Sam is compelled to keep
in his employ eighteen of the highest-paid
mechanics in the world turning cut steel
plates for new money.
Uncle Sam has the majority Of the
transferrers Of the world, and ne wishes
that he had even more of them.

WashinEton-OnIy Fifty-twO Men
I'm the World Can Do the Work.

Uncle Sam is sorely in need OF more
engravers-the men who mako the plates
for all his paper money. There are just
hfty-two Of these handicraftsmen in the
world. and Uncle Sam has eighteen Of
them in Washington.
The growth of the country and the use
Of paper money by the people Of this
continent has increased 10 such an ex-
tent during the last few years that the
government officials have not fully pre-
pared for the emergency. Uncle sam
himself has recently been startled at the
great amount OF paper money necessary
for the daily use of his citizens and those
Of other countries now here. Conse-
quently the Bureau Of Engraving and
Printing is rushed to the fullest extent
The increased population and the poDu-
larity of paper money has simply out
grown the plant, which stands within the
shadow Of the Washington Monument.
The engravers are a class in them
selves. Although It IS not generally
known. these men have an association
that IS the strongest in the world. Their
word Is law for the people, or even tho
government, by whom they are en-
plOyed. This ASSOCIATION has no name
Il consists merely of an understanding
among the men Of the art. The men dis
like 70 be known as union members, and
therefore the organization has never been
named

Perfect work ImpossibIe.

Engraving plates for Uncle Sam, not

stamps. is a tedious task. Il is said that
no one has ever been able 10 play the
violin absolutely pcrfect-that IS, to be
able to reach that stage Of the profession
where further accomplishment could not
be brought about. Engravers, those Of
the finer art claim that the same is
true Of their profession.
The passage Of the Aldrich bill during
the last session Of Congress has greatly
increased the work at the Bureau of
Printing and Engraving One, two, and

Majority in Washington.

Washington is the home of more OF the
plate engravors than any other city.
Eighteen of them work for Uncle Sam
here New York claims but two or three.
Chicago has about the same number. and
in several other cities Of the United States
one Of these men makes his home. There
are several in London. one in Buen0s
Ayres. another IN Rome, and others here
and there in the other principal cities Of
Europe.
Uncle sam would give steady employ
ment TO eight or ten more Of these trans
ferrers" # he could get them, notwlth-
standing the fact that they are among
the highest salaried men In the service
Of the government. But he cant get
them. and the eighteen now here are
compelled 70 make the plates for all Of
the paper money.
The art Of engraving. and particularly
that part Of the trade pertaining to the
outlining OF plates Just as Uncle Sam
desires that the work be done. is one of
the most difficult tasks 20 attain in the
world. Years and years Of haru. steady
work and study are required before the
man who undertakes 10 accomplish the
undertaking completes his course In
