COLLECTS PASSPORTS.

There is one man in this city who
has an odd fad, which is apparently
tho collecting Of seals Of tho De

ten. go abroad, in fact he has been on
the other side probably no more than
four times In The COURSE OF his life.
and he is now around so. But for.
about twenty years he ha, been in
the habit OF applying annually for a
passport. He writes 10 the depart
ment Of state. gets an application
blank and has II filled out. He goes
to- the same notary every time and
sEays$the fees. Then te sends his an.
plication and the passport fee to- the.
department and gets his passport
back in due course.
Passports are valid for. two years
without renewal, yet he never misses
Z a year and be, fills out, a new appli-
cation every time. Thus he has n
collection Of papers and seals run.

a help to him when travelling in this
country as a means OF Identification
when that hss become necessary In
some city in which he was a strang-
err, Tha' chief idea he las is that.
some time It might be imperative for
MIN to leave for a foreign country on
some business or other and having
the passport he would not have to
