Vice Counsel General J. j. Slech.
Ia writes that plans have been com
pleted for installing in Rio de Janero
a modern pneumatic tube system for
transmitting kilograms and other mes
sages. The Typographical position of
the Brazilian capital necessitates its
separation into distinct and widely
separated districts, between which
communication is slow, because of the
circuitous routes, to aviod mountain
Gus districts, either by tramway or
other street vehicle. BY the pneuma-
tic tube system kilograms may be sent
from one part of the city to distant
parts in Is minutes, as compared with
45 minutes to an hour for messenger
delivery. At first the system will
operate only in the more densely pop
ulated portions, the service being per
formed in IL stations conveniently sit
uated. The equipment is to be the

Sense About Cents.

"There Is no such coin in the United
States as penny" said Deputy Treas
urer w. H. Gibson, at the Treasury
Department today when asked about
the supply of the Lincoln head 1-cent
pieces.
Nearly every bank in the United
States writes us for Lincoln head pen
nies, and the thousands of people who
came to the cash room in the last ten
days for these coins called them pen
MES. The law authorizes 1 cent pieces
and not pennies. When Ellis H. Rob
erts was United States Treasurer be
would not sign a letter with the word
penny in 1t. 1T is cent he used to
say, and some people have more cents
than Others and the way he empha-
sized the cents made it sound very
much like he meant sense"
The cash room of the Treasury paid
out none of the new coins today, in
forming callers there were none on
hands.-Washingto Telegram to the

SIamese Anxious for Chance to Buy
Modern Firearms.

In the distant provinces of Siam the
old flntlock guns are still in use for

modern rifle is much In demand by
those who can afford to buy 1t. The
traveller In remote districts Is often

plosives being prohibited except by
the previous special permission OF the

arriving at the port of Bangkok are re-
quired to deposit their arms and am

thorities before landing, a receipt be-
ing given for the same and everything
being restored again on the travellers
departure, or, on special request
through the respective consulate, the
visitor may obtain possession of his
weapons and ammunition for personal
use.
Ships on anchoring at Paknam, at
the entrance of the river, must also
give over to the customs all the guns
and ammunition before proceeding fur
ther up the river.
II Is understood that the Siamese
government has an armament factory
under construction near Bangkok, but
up to the present time specifications
for tenders for its equipment have not

The Ambition to Shine.

There are few men who are not am
hitiors of distinguishing themselves
in the nation or country where they
live, and of growing considerable with
those with whom they converse. There
is a kind of grandeur and respect
which the meanest and most insight
ficant part of mankind endeavour to
procure in the little circle of their
friends and acquaintances. The poor
est mechanic, nay, the man who lives
upon common aims, gets him his set Of
admirers, and delights in that super
iority which he enjoys over those who
are in some respects beneath him.
This ambition, which is natural to the
soul of man, might, methinks, receive
a very happy turn, and, If it were
rightly directed, contribute as much
to persons advantage as it generally
does to his uneasiness and disgust

Baby sIeepIess With Awful Itching.

"When our baby was seven weeks
old he broke out with what we
thought was heat, but which gradual
ly grew worse. We called in a doctor.
He said It was eczema and from that
time we doctored six months with
three of the best doctors in Atchison
but he only got worse. His face, head
and hands were a solid sore. There
was no end to the suffering for him.
We had to tie his little hands to keep
him from scratching. He never knew
what 1t was to sleep well from the
time he took the disease until he was
cured. He kept us awake all hours
of the night and his health wasn't
what you would call good. We tried
everything but the right thing.

Pure Food and Pure Butter.

Pure food, what crimes are commit
ted in thy name? A Cornell profes
sor, an officer of the New York State
Dairymen's association, warns Con-
gress against a plot of the oleomar-
garine makers, and wants every friend
OF pure food to rally. The professor
is worried for fear that oleomargarine
may be colored to resemble butter.
The New York Times suggests that II
it is wrong to color oleomargarine, 1t
is wrong to color butter Under the
law as it stands. oleomargarine can
only be sold under its own name. and
the Times thinks that If any one
wants to buy oleomargarine, whether
colored or not, he should be able to
get it. 1t pertinently adds that "Peo-
pie with short purses cannot see why
colored oleomargarine should be lille
gal and colored butter legal, particu.
larly as the matter used to give the
required tinge is the same for both
and entirely harmless" There Is a
lot of good sense in the pure food law,
but lot of nonsense in the uses that
