l continued addressing envelopes for
two hours a day for whole week and
the next week l received promotion.
In this way l went through the whole
routine from office boy to director,
and the experience which | obtained
in the various capacities has proved
invaluable to me in business.
AS director had to sign checks, die
tate letters, enter into agreements with
the other firm with reference to the
sale and purchase of goods, keep an
eye on the money market, work out ar
bitrage calculations. draw up and in
dorse bills of exchange and bills Of
lading, make out periodical statements
of affairs, allow or dispute amounts
placed to the debit of the firm on ac-
count Of general average losses and
generally supervise everything.
While we were thus drilled in practi.
cal work the theoretical side of bust
ness was not neglected. Lectures were
given at fixed hours, bookkeeping and
mercantile law. Thus we enjoyed the
inestimable advantage of acquiring the
theory and practice Of business at the
same time.-Detroit Free Press.

The Catalpa Tree.

The catalpa tree is the SLOUGH of the
forest. 1t has brief season of beau
ty. but this outburst of charm is so ex-
ceedingly ephemeral when compared
with the long weeks and months when
it seems to be fairly reveling in litteI
that the wonder is its presence is toler-
ated to the extent it has been in years
gone by. We believe it was Lord By
ron who once INDUCED in few rhap-
sodical utterances over the catalpa
blossoms. but it is safe to say he never
had to clean up yard which was mar
red by the presence of one or more OF
the trees or the sentiments expressed
would have been in other than poetic
vein.-Des Moines Capital.

Tho Artist and His Work.

The great artists. like the great he

Shakespeare chafed at the popularity
Of the fool in the drama of his time
and then produced the fool in Lear"
If either of them had waited for per-
feet conditions and an inspiration I'M
trammeled by circumstances he would
have done nothing. They produced
masterpieces because they made the
best of things as they were. And this
is the business Of the artist in life

LONDON BANK CLERKS.
Their Dress and Mode Of Living Cen
fury Ago.

A hundred years ago the number of
bank clerks In London must have been
inconsiderable. The old banks needed
only small staffs. Quite late in the
eighteenth century one of the biggest
conducted its business with two clerks.
The engagement of a third created
great excitement. His arrival was still
more exciting. for we are assured that
'he wore a long tapped coat with
large pockets; the sleeves had broad
cuffs, with three large buttons. some
what like the coats worn by Green
wich pensioners; an embroidered waist
coat reaching nearly down to his
knees. with an enormous bouquet in
the buttonhole; cooked hat, powdered
hair, with pigtai and bagwig, and
gold headed cane" This. no doubt.
was something of a peacock, even for
his time. A few years later, in the
early part Of the nineteenth century,
the correct official garb was knee
breeches, silk stockings, shoes with
silver buckles and often a white tie.
One can scarcely imagine a dress more
suggestive of sober opulence.
But 1t does not seem that, according
to our ideas, the manner of life was
quite In harmony with this Impressive
appearance. Not for the bank clerk of
the early eighteen hundreds the i'm
maculately clean and deliberately fitted
restaurants of the modern city! Not
for him tea shops with varieties of
harmless drinks and tempting light
food! If he wanted a meal he went to
the butcher and bought himself a chop
or steak for fvepence halfpenny or
sixpence. This he carried himself to
an adjacent public house, where they
cooked it for a penny. The public
house. in fact, played no small part in
his life.
Is 1t not tradition that the clearing
house has grown from the meetings OF
clerks in a tavern, where they met for
the purpose of settling up accounts
among themselves? - London Tele

He is very practical, serious mind

laughed long and heartily. The friend

In his book ACROSS the Sahara"
Hans Vischer writes: ION a spot re-
Gently uncovered by the wind l picked
up blunt arrowheads and knives, Car
thaginian coins. money lost by Ro-
mans and Arabs, and fragments of
beautifully colored marble slabs which
probably once adorned some Roman
villa on the hills"
Strange peoples were met in that
long march across the Sahara-the
Tuaregs, for instance, who need not a
suffragist attack to bring them to their
senses, for among the Tuaregs it is
the man, the brute, who by all the
laws Of the country has to obey the
woman. Descent is traced through
the mother. Woman shows her proud
face to all the world, while the man

Tattooing Is not by any means con
fined to savage peoples. There are
races in Europe which make it regu-
lar practice, and men, women and chill
dren bear on their bodies ornamental
tons that are as ornate and queer, al
though not as extensive, as are mark
ings on the bodies of the south sea
savages. These European tattooers
are among the Albanians and Bos-
mans, who live in the famous Balkan

are derived from the effects produced

such a manner as to produce goose
flesh on the unfortunate person who
hears its song.

HANDCUFFS.
Various Devices That Have Been Used
In lettering Prisoners.

| w TetteTln9 TTlSoneTs'
In Vergil is to be found the first re-
corded instance of the use Of hand
cuffs, for the poet tells us that Proteus
was thus fettered and rendered pow
erless by Aristaeus, who apparently
knew that even the gods themselves
were not proof against this form of
persuasion.
In the fourth century B. 9. an army
Of victorious Greeks found several
chariots full of handouts among the
baggage of the defeated Carthaginians,
and it is highly probable that the an
Gent Egyptians had some contrivance
of the kind. The word is derived
from the Anglo-Saxon "handcop,"
whence comes evidently the slang
term "copper""
In earliest Saxon days "handcops"
were used for mobiles and foot cops"
for kings, but in the fourteenth and
fifteenth centuries the word Is sup
planted by the terms "shack bolt" and
''swivel manacle," and the instruments
were as cumbersome as the names by
which they were known.
Up to the middle of the last century
there were two kinds of handcuff in
general use. One, known as the "fexi-
ble," was very like that which is
still used; the other kind, called the
figure eight" was used to restrain
violent prisoners. 1t was so fashioned
that the captive could not move his
hands and was universally dreaded.
for the pain caused by a limb immov-
ably confined is almost unbearable.
A simple but powerful device for Sc
curing prisoners was the "twister."
now abolished owing to the injuries
it inflicted 1t consisted of a chain
with handles at each end. The chain
was put around the wrists, and the
handles were brought together and
twisted until firm grip was obtained
The least struggle on the part of the
captive and the chains bit deep into
his wrists. OF the same nature, but
made Of wire, is ia ligote," while in
an emergency whipcord has proved
perfectly satisfactory.
The handcuf used in some parts Of
eastern Europe is most primitive. II

in which the wrists are inserted, the
open ends being then drawn together
by means of a cross hook, which must
be kept taut the whole time. The

America. 1t is lighter and much less

Burlington, March 2.-Altho the
June primaries are still several months
distant and many ambitious gentlemen
may announce their candidacy for con-
gress recent events which have trans
pfred in republican circles in this dis
trict lead one TO believe that the bat
lie will simmer down to contest be-
tween Smith w. Brookhart of Washing
ton, progressively; and present Con-
gresham Kennedy of Montrose,
(standpatter), for the republican nom
nation.
Not since the year when John J.
Seerley Of Burlington, defeated the vet
eran Gear have the democrats of the
First district been so united and so
confident of victory as at the present
time. One candidate has already an
nounced himself, James r. Giles of
Henry county. Mr.. ellis is a Bryan
democrat and enjoys a considerable ac-
quaintance turnout the district but it
is generally conceded that Joe Pollard,
a prominent Fort Madison banker and
a speaker Of exceptional ability, can
have the nomination if he expresses a
desire for it.
1t is admitted that republican politics
in the First district are in a cha otic
state and that either Brookhart or
Kennedy will have hard shedding for
election if either Pollard or Tracy is
the opposing candidate.
