MAKING GOOD ADHEsIvEs.
How This Industry Has Been DeveI.
Oped from Handwriting Days,

now This Industry Has Been DeVeIs
Oped from handwriting Days.
About twenty years ago 1t was that
hour paste, glue and gum arabic, be-
yond which there was then little
known, were first replaced by higher
priced adhesiVes which were more fit
FOR certain purposes and which more
than made up for their extra cost by
saving In time and labor and by bet
ter work. At that time the use of
FASTING and cumming machinery was
In itS infancy in this country, and
hardly even known abroad. With the
growth Of American inventive genius
the change was made from handworlx
to mechanical appliances.
Those outside Of the trade have
hardly any idea to what extent hand
work has been displaced by machinery
and OF the wonderful appliances which
had to be invented to do 1t in the gum
making line, the New York Sun saws
Every one knows, for instance. thar
envelopes or paper boxes now are made
by machines, which do hundred times
more work than could be done by hand

Such delicate machinery needed cor-

out OF the question. Work in sucb
lines naturally led to many new ideas
which proved Of value in any number

An industry like making of gums

Postmaster General Meyer is of
serious turn of mind, but he has a bit

Being looked upon as the shrewdest
politician in the presidents cabinet, he
is the objective point for newspaper

from the White House a newspaper
man asked:

give us some news about the cabinet
meetings?'

The Marital Grasshopper.

What is grasshopper? The latest
definition comes from western Aus
tralia. Domestic servants are almost
unprocurable there, and wives have to
do nearly all their own household
work. The consequence is that they
are compelled torecuperate at the sea-
side in summer. In their absence the
husbands have to prepare their own
meals and do domestic duty generally.
Husbands so engaged have come to be
locally known as 'grasshoppers." No
doubt the word is the husband of the
more familiar grass widow. Lon.
