which shows what the concerns inter

UNIQUE WEIGHING MACHINE.
Absolute Accuracy Possible by Use
of This Instrument.

Among all other things that the OFF,
cials of the paper company have insisted
upon are absolutely accurate measure
ments and weighing scales both for
themselves and their customers, retail
and wholesale. 1t is the boast OF the
management that whenever a man gets
anything. whether it be one sheet or a
ton roll of paper. he gets what the COM
pany agreed to sell him for a certain
price.
Among the weighing machines that the
company has purchased from time to
time is one which is particularly inter
esting because of its unique design. 1t
resembles compass balanced wrong end
upward and depends upon the undeviat-
ing law of gravity for its accuracy. This
machine weighs to the slightest fraction
of an ounce and makes mistakes prac-
tically impossible.

LITTLE THINGS
THAT COUNT In
BUSINESS LIFE
''Outlook Envelope" Proves
Valuable to All.
SEQUEL MADE EVIDENT
ITS the little things that count" !"

ITS the little things that count"
A favorite saying among officials and
employees of the R. P. Andrews Company
Is that detail and good management,
with concentrated energy, will do any
thing. And the smallest, most trivial
innovations sometimes work a great
Change in the ultimate destiny of some
new product.
Latest on the markets the outlook
envelope" Its name has nothing to do
with that sterling publication. 1t means
that in lieu Of the plain front is a square
rectangle of transparent paper. The
letter head is so folded as to rest against
this paper, and thus the 'self-address-
ing envelope is made absolutely in
fallible. No letter can go astray.
Story of Its Needs.
It's use is rapidly becoming popular.
In connection Herewith, Mr.. Andrews
tells this story:
Have you ever stopped to realize how
much private information of tremen-
dously important character has leaked
through the misdirection of a letter?
Several days ago 1 was running through
my mail when picked up a letter ad
dressed to me from the biggest bank in
New York. I had written them inquir-
ing as to some minor matter of finance,
ana SuppOSlng Iney naQ sent IneH reply,
I opened the missive.
For a moment I was paralyzed. The
letter inside was of an extremely con-
fdential character and was intended for
a big banker in Cleveland, Ohio. 1t re-
counted some financial deal which was
all Greek to me, which carried several
Ciphers after each mention of money.
Had the letter contained information
the announcement of which might have
led to a panic, the result would have
been the same. The banker undoubtedly
got the reply intended for me and must
have been mystifed by such a trite an
swer to his ponderous questions.
with the outlook envelope this is
impossible. The beginning of the letter
serves as the address for the envelope
1t shows through the transparent paper"
Why This Man Lost.
There was a second incident no less
interesting which Mr.. Andrews recounted
in telling why the famous wire en-
Velope" failed.
The man who promoted that" he
said, lost more than S1,00O,O0O because
of the little psychological proposition
that he was benefiting the wrong man.
In preparing the envelopes one recalls
that strip of wire was fastened at
the bottom and the man who received
letter, instead Of cutting it open, gave
the wire a short jerk and cut the bottom
from end to end.
This was all right for the man who
