T. VERY time person ticks a United
Il States postage stamp he gets taste
of sweet potato. The gum with which
the stamps are backed is made from
that succulent vegetable because Un-
Gle Sans lieutenants consider it the
most harmless preparation of the sort
All Of the gum used on American
postage stamps is mixed by the gov
eminent at the bureau of engraving
and printing, where the stamps are
made. 1t is spread on the sheets after
the stamps have been printed.
The gum, in liquid form, is forced
up through pipes from the basement,
where it is made. These pipes lead to
a series of machines consisting of roll
ers, between which the sheets of
stamps are fed, one at at time.
A continuous fine stream of the
liquid gum falls upon one of these
rollers. The sheet with it's wet coat

ship would be at church!
Sam would not be dislodged. He
invented the most diabolical schemes
for sequestrating Sally to himself dur
ing the week which followed-into
which guileless Sally often fell-and
which seemed to proclaim her sutton
to be himself. Sam, you remember,
had access to Sally, but Seffy had not.
Seffy confessed that this looked SIMS.
ter. True, he remembered all that had
passed between them. But once before
he had been in error
So that Seffy, before the weeks
end, began once more-and more
strongly-to deprecate the necessity
for this public demonstration of HID
status. His father demanded it as a
diplomatic necessity, inasmuch as
Sally still retained Sam on basis so
much like his own as to make the sit,
uation extremely embarrassing 10 even
Old Baumgartner, who had let it be
known that he was the active coadju,
tor of his son. To vanquish Seffy was
to vanquish him, and he, If not Seffy
himself, screwed Seffys courage to the
sticking point. After this, Seffy weak,
ened no more, but proclaimed his pur.
pose. 1t was generally conceded that
the one who failed now would have to
leave town.
So here was retiring little Seffy
forced by circumstances into a public
rivalry which he detested, and, 1t
may as well be confessed-feared. 1t
must, also, be explained that Sally

and this was the purpose Of rustic

not only acknowledged; it was toll

And Seffy left her at her door that
night, determined to do some great
thing to set himself properly before
the little community once more. Be-

IAN American society affairs be con-

the European nobility?
Mrs. George Won Lengerke Meyer,
wife of the postmaster general, has
been doing some experimenting the
past season.
Resenting the free and easy custom
of everybody and anybody visiting the
cabinet homes. Mrs. Meyer has at,
tempted to introduce foreign methods
as regards calling and the general pro,

Not since Mrs. Levi P. Morton drew
such line of distinction between &C
cidental official position and heredi.
tary social standing has Washington
been so wrought up as over Mrs
Meyers naughty attitude toward the
wives of cabinet officers and other
men in public life.

in her sight or his own, until he has
escorted her offhand from church on
a Sunday night And this he must ac
complish at the church door, out Of
sometimes-a savage rivalry challeng-
ing disaster.
For by this simple, primitive, heroic
process the status of contestants for
maids favor is fixed. He whose arm
is taken can face his little world on
Monday. He whose arm is rejected Is,
on Monday, social exile. For the
small world of the vicinage is always
there and this is the maiden's public
election of him she chooses to honor,
and her public rebuke to his too pre-
sumptuous rival And, after that, she
is a poor thing indeed who will be
seen in public with the latter. For
nothing is more sweet and cruel than
love-
Seffy was not publicly -acknowl-
edged sutton. He could not be. 1t was
impossible! There was that tomb
stone still up in the store. Sam had
not yet been dislodged. And Seffy had
not yet arrived where he might put
the awful question-there was recog-
nized period for this, and events had
put it further and further Off Indeed,
he shuddered when he thought of it
even then, after that understanding
with Sally!-and contemplated getting
his father to do 1t for him.
1t had become known, in the wire
less way such things spread in the
country, that there had been tenta-
tive making-up between Seffy and
Sally. But Seffy was still not received
in public. Nor did he appear with
Sally! Nor might he call upon her!

In public. 1t was the primitive right
of the strongest, proved physically
here as in the Roman circus. Seffy
had never shown himself master CT
material prowess. He demurred a bit
at such plunge into the arena. But
there was no other way.
"Why, Sef," advised his father
latter that it's a dead open and shut
game. You better do the biggest sing

A Change for the Better.


Miss Lillian B. Hill, the advertising
expert, said at a clothiers' banquet in
Grand Rapids:
Il am glad you clothiers now adver.
tise, now print pictures of mems and
boys fashions. Thus you smarter up
the country, and you help to abolish
the cutting-down of the fathers clothes
for the son.
You have educated our little boys
to dress and few of them could bear
to wear now their fathers garments
made over by their mothers awkward
hands.
ut was not always so. / remember
how, in the distant past, my little
brother rushed whimpering into my
room one night.
oh, dear he whined, pas had his
beard shaved off, and now / guess
I've got to wear the old red thing!'"

:: BRUNSWICK =:
THE PSYCHOLOGICAL MOMENT.

In all growth, in all development
whether of the individual of the city
there are special periods which call
for special effort.
The country is emerging from panic
conditions. There is every reason
to hope for a return of the country to
normal conditions before the end OF
the year.
Brunswick has cause for congratula
ton that the A, B. & A. road in these
trying times has been able to con
tinue the construction of the road to
Atlanta and Birmingham.
The deep water channel of Bruins.
wick made this roads outlet, made
terminals at Brunswick possible. The
people of Brunswick need no descrip-
ton of the wonderful railroad termi.
nails unsurpassed in the country, crea-
ted here within less than three years.
The local terminals, the Oglethorpe no
tel purchase and it's remodelling ex-
tension, refurnishing But it has been
the privilege of the few citizens of
Brunswick to ride over the line and
note the thorough and complete con.
struction of the line.
The heavy rail, the long sidetracks
at stated intervals, the depots, even
at new stations, as coed as upon the
best of our railroads. The bridges,
steel, of approved construction, the
culvertts and trestles permanent, and
modern in construction. A road in a
word ready to do all business it is pos
sible for a read to do from the date
Of its completion. The business it
has done as a south Georgia railroad
has been most satisfactory. It's pur-
chase of coal and iron lands in Ala
bama are striking evidences of its
intention, it's determination to do a
large business from its date of com
pletion 1t is the only railroad enter
ing Brunswick which has but one At
lantics seaport. No matter how kindl!
| the management of the Southern Of
Atlantic Coast Line may feel toward
Brunswick, with five Atlantic port

Brunswick which does not requir,
them to do the same to their othe

Irassment, is liable to no such crit
cism, 1t will go as far as railroa
can to build Brunswick, because
is to its interest.
But no railroad can build tow

LET'S PROCEED CAUTIOUSLY.

While the newly enacted ordinance
against the dogs may have been an
emergency measure, made necessary
by an unfortunate condition, it is at
the same time drastic one and The
News INDUCES the hope that it's en-
forcement will be done along sane
and sensible lines.
There is a most peculiar affection
that one has for a good dog and the
indiscriminate killing of them is liza
BILE to cause serious trouble.
In the first place the ordinance
should not, have been made effective
until due notice had been given the
public Or until local dealers had sup
piled themselves with muzzles in or
der that the people could comply with
the law. 1t is doubtful if there are a
half dozen muzzles on sale in the city
at this time and therefore it is quite
impossible to comply with the terms
of the ordinance.
We are all inclined to obey the
law, even if it be an unwise one How
ever, the police department. ought to
go very slow in the matter Of killing
dogs, as well as the more serious mat
ter Of careless shooting in the streets.
A loaded pistol in the hands of an
excited person is a dangerous protect
ion, and on the whole the Situation de-
mands cool headed consideration.
