Tons of Pins,

Nothing better shows the bigness OF
little things than the manufacture or
pins. In England there are made each
week between fifteen and sixteen tons
of the small necessaries, the materials
being iron, steel and brass. The year
" production would amount to about
100 tons. The number of pins includ-
ed In this great weight would make
any ordinary figures seem insignificant
would, In fact, defy realization or
comprehension. Germany also makes
great quantities Of pins, her produc-
ton totaling about IA tons a year.
The United States makes great guam
titles of pins and imports many from
England. Most Of the latter country's
output Is manufactured In Birming-
ham by two firms, one Of which has
been In existence nearly u century and
the other over a century.-Philadelphia

Opulence.

They numbered four They abso-
lutely exuded prosperity. The things
which they ordered were such as to
ill with envy the breast Of the man at
the next table engaged In consuming
the most modest dish disclosed by the
bill Of fare.
The four were conversing-languid,
plutocratic conversation. After awhile
1t turned to the question of money.
Evidently they wanted to do some
thing. How much money bad they?
One Of the four took out his pocket
book and counted up a roll Of bills.
"Oh, | have a hundred and forty" he
said carelessly.
The second and third members of the
party went through their pockets.

WHAT'S the name, please? This
question will be asked of and answer
ed during the coming month by over
80, 600, 900 people. This is the first day
of census taking to ascertain the size
of Uncle Sans family, and the old
gent is DESTROYS of its being taken cor
rectly in thirty days. In order to do
this he started today a force of 10000
assistants, scattered by districts and
sub-districts throughout the United
States and island possessions. The
80, 600, 900 estimate is from figures by
Director e. Dana Durand of the de-
partment, based on calculations of his
experts. Between 1870 and 1880 the
increase in population was thirty per-
cent; 1880 to 1890 was twenty-five per-
cent; 1890 to 1900 was twenty-one per-
cent. Ii the decrease in percentage
Gi increase continues-which it doubt
less Will-the past ten years will show
an increase of perhaps seventeen per-
cent. This does not signify that the
actual population increase is less, but
that the population is now so great it
requires 100000 people to show even
ten percent increase. Therefore the
deduction is reasonable Of belief the
in crease has been at the rate of mil
