its predecessors-which is saying a great DEAL
This time Mr.. Sinclair, in 1.-THE Money Chang

its group Of all.powerful financial magnates He
has drawn series Of pictures of the money
kings which are not the portraits those gentle
men are accustomed to seeing of themselves
in the newspapers and magazines.
The author announces that he expects and
is prepared for volley of indignant protests
from the men he has put in the pages of his
book under gauze masks. II have afidavits and

The birds are plucked for their plumes

London is the great central market
for raw feathers. Buyers generally
go there to obtain their stocks and buy
the feathers which have been sorted
into different grades and sell at so
much per pound.
1t is curious to observe the features
that make y plume more or less val

that can observe all the points of diff.

A New York lawyer was called re-
Gently to hamlet in Berks county,
Pennsylvania, in the interest of a

telling this story on himself:
He was driving along country road
and feared he might have lost his
bearings. The village he wanted to
reach seemed elusive, so he halted in

German woman, who stood looking at
him from beneath a poke" bonnet,
"can you tell me how far it is to the

"Oh, yust a leedle vays." came tho
response.

It? Is it two, four, six or eight miles?
