Thumb Monoerams
the Very Latest Fad

salt Lake society no longer sits and
twirls its thumbs
1t has found a better use for them.
1t makes prints on the paper with
them. on the wall paper? Oh. dear,
no That isn't good form at all.
But really hardly anyone in the
know, don't you know, uses mono
grams on stationery any more.
It's pass A. as the deadhead said,
when he got a free theatre ticket in the
front row.
Also the conventional monogram is
de trop, superfuous. out of place-like
Smoot in politics. for instance.
The very latest thing, just fawncy.
old chap, is to place the mark of your
right thumb at the top of your letter
paper and In the upper left-hand cor
'ner Of your envelopes. Occasional
manicuring of the nails adds to the
polite effect
To be really. as you might say, if no
one were looking. au fat and "distan-
gay the imprint of the thumb must
be in silver and gold.
The thumb print will take the place
of the coat-of-armS. Not every family
had Il coat-of-arms when it started out
in the world. but they all had thumbs.
When the present fad is a century or
so old. new kind of heraldry will be
in vogue. Instead OF hiring man 10
round up her coat-of-arms. the society
women in those days will employ an
expert to dig up their ancestors
thumbs. or at least the print of them.
The person who can show the Oldest
thumb will be the big finger in So
ciety.
Some families will find no difficulty
in finding ancestral thumb-marks in
the family Bible. Others may have to
seek further.
The taking of thumb-prints is now q
recognized branch of the Bertillon sys-
TEN for identifying criminals. 1t would
be easy TO extend the system 10 the
Identification OF the writer of a letter

a good way to thumb-mark your
stationery is to wait until the land
lord has the radiators in your apart
ment resilvered and regilded. Then
while the paint is wet. you can care
fully transfer il TO your thumb and
thence to the paper. The beauty of this
plan is that you will then have your
thumb-mark not only on your station
cry. but on your radiatOrS-which is
the limit of swelldom.

MACHINES TO BRING SLEEP.

Revolving Mirrors, Polished Metal
Balls and Electric Batteries Used.
II call it a sleep mill" said the
manufacturer, as he led the way to
his huge plant, according to the New
York Sun.
He opened a door into a long room
where two rows of girls were boxing
instruments like electric fans, the
wings of the fans being studded with
small rounded mirrors.
Many insomniacs," he said, "can
sleep at the window of an express
train. The sight of the landscape
rushing by them invariably brings
on a refreshing nap. Well, this ma
chine, with its whirl and glitter of
revolving mirrors acts on the eye
and brain in the same soothing man
ner, and the insomnia whom train
ride helps is invariably helped by
this.
Here" he said, entering a small
er room, I'VE turn out slumber
balls"
A number of young men were
rounding and polishing balls of
bright metal, and he took one in his
hand.
Fixed high above the head" he
said, $50 that it strains the eye to
stare at it, this ball frequently brings
sleep to insomniacs of a melancholic
| type.
In the next room we make a
small machine for clamping the ar
teries leading to the brain. 1t is
easy to adjust the flow of blood 10
the brain centers. To certain ner-
vous, feverish somniacs-authors
actors and so on-the clamp often
in bed sends a mild current u2 and
! brings sleep in a few minutes.
And here we make a very simple
battery that while the patient lies in
bed sends a mild current up and
down his spine. The battery treat.
ment usually succeeds best with fe.
male insOmniacs.
we employ" he concluded, 800
hands here. 1t is a tribute, isn't it
to hectic activity of our twentieth
century civilization, a great mill like
this, devoted to the production OF
sleep for those who are too tired
and nerve-worn to rest naturally?'

Our Own John Temple Graves Is the
Tail of the Kite. Some PIanks
in the Platform.
The Independence party, at it's
convention in Chicago, put a national
ticket in the field and adopted a plat
form of principles. Thomas Hisgen
of Massachusetts was nominated
for president on the third ballot, and
John Temple Graves was nominated
for vice-president on the first ballot.
Hisgen's opponents were NJ. w. How
ard of Alabama, John Temple Graves
of Georgia. w. r. Hurst, though
not candidate, received a compli-
mentary vote of half a hundred.
| There being no nomination on the
first ballot the roll call was ordered
for the second time, which resulted
as follows: Hisgen, $50; Graves,
1879; Howard, 109; Hearst, 40.
On the third ballot the vote steadi-
ly went toward Hisgen, and it was
soon evident that his nomination was
certain. Virginia broke from Graves
and placed him within a few votes of
success. Then came Washington
with 10 votes for Hisgen and he was
nominated. There was a scramble
for the band wagon. Georgia
changed from Graves to Hisgen, and
then they come too rapidly to count.
Alabama withdrew the name of How
ard after Hisgen had been actually
nominated and cast it's vote for
Graves.
The third ballot resulted: Hisgen,
