CURIOUS REGULATIONS.
Smoke BottIer, Dock WaIIoper,
 Dealer in Walrus Whiskers.

When the thirteenth census is com pleted-that is when the last compila- ton has been made and each individual has been put in the proper class, it will be the most exhaustive classification ever made by the census bureau.
 For instance, says the Scientific Am erican, while machinists will, of course be placed under one general heading each of them will be classified accord ing to the particular work he Is doing and so with other trades and indus tries. Some of the sub classes will contain but single name. This will bring 10 light d number of queer ways in which some people are engaged in earning a livelihood. As far as the work has progessed, there is only one man classed as snake merchant"
 This man has a snake ranch in Tex as, and has for more than seven years made a business of handling snakes. During the year 1910 he sold over 150, - 000 rattlesnakes and blaCksnakes, the price ranging from 25 cents to $2 each. They are sold to zoos, side shows of circuses, medical colleges and scien- lists.
 Under the shoe industry one would hardly expect to find persons sub classed as judges, fakers, blowers, blowers, sluggers, busters out. cripple chasers and pancake-ma6ers, but there they are
 Another man who will be all in a class by himself, when the work is finished is a resident of Kansas City. His sole business is to bottle smoke of burning hickory logs. He claims that when this smoke is let loose in an airtight compartment where meat has

Les Angeles was the first city te ap- point a woman to its police force.
 One woman in Pennsylvania earns her daily bread by raising Persian eats and selling them for from $25 te $100 each. She not infrequently makes large sales to wealthy cat fanciers. Still another woman-in Maryland de- votes her time to pigeon raising, claiming her income from the industry to be about S70O q year.
 One of the most unique trades Of the entire list. however, Is that carried on by a man in Seattle. His business, and a profitable one. too, Is to secure the mustaches from walrus killed in Boring straits and sell them to the Chinese for toothpicks. These stout bristles are plucked from the nose of the walrus by Indians, tied into small bundles and sold by him on the Pacific coast to agents, who ship them to China, where they are in great de- mand.
 In an aged bull walrus, the bristles are about foot long and nearly as thick as a lead pencil. Besides being extremely tough, they can, when made, into picks, be pushed between the teeth without injury to the enamel. Last year this dealer cleared some thing like a thousand dollars by his traffic in Walrus Whiskers.
