eminent Bureau of Engraving.

There Is In Washington a man who
makes S11, 100000 a day. But then it
isn't his money. 1t belongs to the
United States government. The man
is Joseph r. Ralph, director of the
bureau of engraving and printing and
one OF the most efficient men in the
employ of the government.
Money is the science as well as the
business of Ralph. Out of the school
of adversely he came-up from a roll
ing mill in Joliet, Ill, where he went
to work when he was twelve years
up; up from twelve hours a day
over a machine that racked his young
body and gave him keen realization
of the hardships Of the laboring man
and the value of labor saving devices
Probably the most striking character
istic of the employees Of his bureau is
that the handling of such vast sums
of money as S11, 100000 a day breeds
in most of them a spirit of economy.
In several of them recently this spirit
of economy became too strong. They
began to do a thriving Business lend
ing money. The director put a stop to
this, however.
Last year." Ralph said, I'VE turned
out about $6,oooO00,oO0 worth OF
stamps, money and securities. Half
of that was in notes and securities. A
fair sample of one days work is $11,-
00OO."
