EASY TO TELL The TOUCH
Work Of Operator on Typewriter !,
Simply an Open Book to the
Expert.

Those who use typewriters get t.
have a distinctive touch. so that JUS,
from hearing them the man with keen
perceptions can tell who is working
machine. as he can tell man by the
sound of his STEP" said a man who is
in an office where there are many
typewriters. This is true, of course,
only when man is using his regula,
machine. When he shifts to another
make it is almost impossible to tell
who is at work without seeing him.
There are, for instance, seven diff
ferent makes of typewriters in the
ONCE where I am. but there are alto
gether about Is machines. This means
reduplicatton of makes, naturally, but
1t does not interfere with my beins
able to tell just who is at work, even
though i stand outside the door, where
l can see. no one inside.
ut Is the easiest thing in. the world
to tell what type of machine is in use
but 1t takes q better trained ear "a

Chemical food has been worked out
pretty well. but 1t won't be a CONNER
cial proposition. There are lots of
synthetic things being made. but you
can't beat the farm as a laboratory
in that line.
THE clothes Of the future will be so
cheap that every young woman will be
able to follow the fashions-and there
will be plenty of fashions. Artificial
silk that is superior to the natural ar
ticle is now made of wood pulp. I
think that the silkworm barbarism will
go in so years. just as the indigo of
India went before the synthetic pro-
duction Of indigo in German labora-
tories.
I'm 200 years by the cheapening Of
commodities the ordinary laborer will
live as well as man does now with
5000, 900 annual income. Automatic ma
chinery and scientific agriculture will
bring about this result
Not individualasm, but social labor
will dominate the future: you can't
have individual machines and every
man working by himself. Industry will
constantly become more social and In
terdependent. There will be no man

He Nssded tho Clerk.

When Tim Campbell was in the Fiji
tieth congress he stole a clerk from
Congressman Scott. Scott was new
member and was made chairman Of a
committee which gave him a clerkship.
He knew nothing about the clerk.
Campbell did. Through some means
or another he had the clerkship trans
ferred to his own committee. Six
months later Scott learned of the trick.
Meeting Campbell. he said:
'"That was nice piece of petty lar
ceny."
"Tut. tut. Mr.. Scott" said Campbell;
my committee needed clerk worse
than yours Then. with twinkling
eyes. he continued. "You are a mil
lionaire and can afford to hire half a
dozen clerks. while must go to the
government for clerical assistance"
The ready reply amused Scott. The
two men were always the best Of
friends thereafter.

Anxious TRAVELLING,


A traveller in RUSSIA noticed that the
train he entered was all decorated
with flags and banners. and OF every
station it passed stood company Of
soldiers and band playing the nation
al anthem. The traveller asked Q
brakeman the reason Of all this cere-
mony. The brakeman. lowering his
voice. replied:
Il don't mind telling you. sir-but in
the strictest confidence. be it under
stood-that carriage in this train has
been engaged for his majesty. But bis
majesty. as matter of fact. won't
set off till this evening. Thus the plot
Matched against him may take effect
on this train. you see. and our gracious
sovereign will be saved"
The brakeman touched his cap and
passed on. and the traveller. suddenly
grown pale and nervous, stared from
the window anxiously.

ct variety.
1t was seldom that Colonel Bill got
caught by u debtor. 50 unerring was
his Judgment Of men. but his transac-
ton with old man Blankerton was an
exception to the rule. BankertOn got
into Colonel Bills ledger to the amount
Of $50 and finally balanced the account
with note.
When the paper was long time
overdue and there was no prospect of
a settlement. to the eminent disgust OF
the colonel. he declared. with strong
Anglo-Saxon emphasis. that he would
sell Blankerton's note for so cents on
the dollar. The statement was not
long reaching the ears of the maker
of the note. He met the colonel in the
village street one day and accosted
him:
"Bill. heard you'd offered to sell my
note for so cents on the dollar"
Eyes: will"
twill you sell it to me at that rate?''
Eyes, sir; III sell 1t to you at that
rate"
"All right. Bill; make out new
note"
Colonel Bills symptoms of apoplexy
became noticeable from that moment.

Tho Oldest Joke.

Tho Oldest Joke.
It will he difficult to discover an old
er practical joke than that of the cop.
persmith and the maker Of brazen i'm
ages for the temple Of Osiris, which is
embodied in Egyptian Inscriptions dat
ing from the reign Of Menes. founder
Of Memphis. who ruled over 7.OOO
years ago. According to ancient rec
ords. there dwelt between these two
craftsmen quiet man whose desire
was for peace and who was sadly dis
turbed by the noisy occupations car
ried on by his busy neighbors. He
therefore asked each of them to say
for what sum they would change their
dwellings. This they did. Each calcu-
lated the amount required. and he. be-
ing satisfied. paid 1t over to them.
Now" he asked Of the coppersmith,
where is your new dweilingY Il
have taken that of the maker Of i'm
ages" was the reply. "And you. !"
queried the quiet man Of the latter,
"whither goest thouy" ITO the house
Of the coppersmith!"
This is one of many tales told in all
ages which are woven into myth and
legend and differ only in local color.
