FARMER MAKES A FIND.
Julian Duprront of~Mlchlgan Digs Up
Relic Dated m493."

Traverse City, Mich--Friends of
Julian Duprront of Provement wonder
who is trying to make him appear
foolish. Duprront plowed up a stone
In one of his fields, and 1t bears date
six years later than the time when
Columbus discovered America.
The stone Is almost skull shaped
and is of hard variety common along
the beach of Lake Michigan. On 1t is
carved rude portrait of mans face
and below this is the date "149S,"
while above 1t are the initials -. A.
T." On the other side Is poorly
drawn picture of bird and an imple--
ment resembling sword. There are
numerous other marks, but the action
of water or other agencies has rem
dered them illegible. The figures, let
tering and portraits are apparently of
great age. Duprront would not have
noticed 1t, as stones are common in
the fields, but the image side happened
to be uppermost.
Duprront believes the find is genu-
inc and will eventually make him rich
He says 1t means that portion of Co

on the cheaper processes OF printing
for the manufacture of It's postage
stamps. The stamps supplied by
Uncle Sam are printed by the plate
printing" process, which is the most
costly as well as the most perfect of
all processes OF taking a printed i'm.
preston. Like all of our paper money
and the bonds and stocks certificates
admitted to trading on the New York
stock exchange the postage stamps
are printed from steel engravings. An
engraved plate differs radically from
the printing surfaces used in the or
binary typographical processes, in that
the lines which carry the ink are sunk
below the surface of the plate and
the pigment which remains on the pa
per after 1t has been run through the
printing press is taken, not from the
surface of the plate, as. is the case in
topographic printing, but from the
sunken lines. BY this process 1t is
possible to make a much finer design
than 1t would be possible to print from
a topographic cut" as may be seen
any postage stamp or piece Of paper
currency with the finest wood cut or
other example of topographic art.
The cost of manufacturing postage
stamps Is further increased by the
necessity of cumming the backs; but
the perfection of the machinery which
carries out this process, together with
the small size of the stamps, makes
the total cost inconsiderable when
compared with the selling price.
The printed sheets of stamps pass
into the cumming machines as soon
as they are dried and passed by the
examiners.
These machines are marvels of In
genuity An even flow Is spread ON
the back of the stamps with wonderful
accuracy by revolving drum whose
slightly rough surface carries the nee
essary amount of adhesive fluid. AS
sheet after sheet passes face down I'M
der this roller it throws a parting
glimmer of its newlygummed surface
in a mirror directly in front of the
young woman operator BY this means
she can tell whether or not the gum Is
being applied.
After its farewell CLEAN the sheet is
carried automatically through dry
ing chest, where an even temperature
of 1876 degrees is maintained. 1t is
now dry and ready to be trimmed,
numbered and perforated.
Finally, hydraulic presses remove
the burning left by the perforating ma
chimes, and the finished stamps, exam
ined, counted, packed and sealed, are
ready for shipment.

BANISHED
Coffee Finally Had to Go.

The way some persons cling to cot
fee even after they know it is doing
them harm, is puzzler. But it is an
easy matter to give it up for good,
when Postum Food Coffee is properly
made and used instead.
A girl writes: Mother had been
suffering with nervous headaches for
seven weary years. but kept drinking
coffee
"One day I asked her why she did
not give up coffee as cousin OF mine
had done who had taken to Postum.
But Mother was such slave to coffee
she thought it would be terrible to
give 1t up.
Finally. one day, she made the
change to Postum, and quickly her
headaches disappeared. One morning
while she was drinking Postum so
freely and with such relish l asked for
taste.
THAT started me on Postum and
now drink 1t more freely than / did
coffee, which never comes into our
house now.
"a girl friend of mine, one day, saw
me drinking Postum and asked II 1t
was coffee. told her 1t was Postum
and gave her some to take home, but
forgot to tell her how to make it.
"The next day she said she did not
see how | could drink Postum. found
she had made 1t like ordinary coffee.
So l told her how to make It right
and gave her cupful / made, after
boiling it fifteen minutes. She said
she never drank any coffee that tasted
as good, and now coffee is banished
from both our homes" Name given

NO BLESSING FOR HER.
Disappointed Youngster Disseminated
in His Prayer.

For several weeks, little Ralph had
enjoyed the use of Shetland pony,
the property of horse dealer who
was friend of the family. But much
to Ralph's sorrow, there came a day
recently when the pony was sold, and
the delightful horseback rides came
to sudden end. The purchaser, as
Ralph found out by inquiry. was a
little girl of about his own mature
age of five. Ever since his acquaint-
ance with the pony began, Ralph had
included him in his bedtime prayer.
and God bless the pony" was an
earnest nightly petition. The first
evening after the sale of the pony
Ralph hesitated' when he reached his
pets place in the prayer. Then, after
moments thought, ne continued:
Please, God, bless the pony just
the same; but. God, don't you bless
the little girl what's got the pony"
