MAKING GOLD PENS,
The Mstalo That Ar Ussd and The
Process OF Manufacture.

y
The Mstalo That Ar Ussd and thl
Preeoso Of Manufacture.
Tho tiny tip Of white metal seen on
the under side Of the point Of gold
pen may be Of platinum. but it h more
likely to DO iridium. Iridium Is very
hard metal, and 1t Is expensive. It
costs about four times as much as gold.
The purpose OF the iridium tip is. of
course. to give the pen a more durable
point.
The gold pen maker buys his gold at
the assay Office in bars Of pure "a carat
gold. which he melts and alloys with
silver and copper to the degree of fine
ness required. Gold Of IA carats Is
used in the manufacture Of the best
American gold pens. that being the de-
gree of fineness deemed most suita bic
for pen use. but good pens made in
this country for sale In France are
made of Is carats. the French govern
ment requiring that all articles exposed
for sale in that country as made of
gold shall be of not less than Is car
ats
The gold from which the pens are to
be made is rolled and. rerolled until
what was originally a thick. heavy bar
Of gold has been rolled, into a thin gold
ribbon about three feet in length by
four inches wide. Then this gold rib
bon Is put into a machine which
stamps out of it pen shapes. all still
fat. Then on the top Of each Of these
pen shapes is fused the iridium point.
and then the shapes 60 to Sitting
machine which cuts the slit in the
pen. From the Sitting machine the
pens go through another, which gives
them their rounded. familiar pen form.
and then the pens are ground and pol
shed and finished ready for use.
American gold pens in fountain pens
or as dip pens are sold in every coun-
try in Europe in competition with pens
of British or of German manufacture.
and under the same competition they
are sold throughout the world in South
America. Africa. Japan. China. wher-
ever pens are used.-New York Sun.

SILENT MEN.

| WaIlenstein. Who Never Smiled, Was
tho Most Dramatic Of All.
Washington's reserve made him
stiff. formal and Ill at ease in compa-
ny. but it also prevented his plans
from being betrayed to the enemy and
the country from being deceived by
his promises
William the Silent was frugal Of
words. because a reserve that conceal
ed his designs, even from those acting
with him. was necessary to the indie
pendence Of the Netherlands. ~
The most dramatic of silent men
was Wallenstein. the antagonist Of
Gustavus Adolphus and the comman-
der of the emperors armies In the
Thirty Years war. He insisted that
the deepest silence should reign around
him His officers took care that no
loud conversation should disturb their
general They knew chamberlain
had been hanged for waking him With
out orders. and an officer who would
wear clanking spurs is the command
er's presence had been secretly put to
death. In the rooms Of Wallenstein's
palace the servants glided as If phan-
toms. and a dozen sentinels moved
around his tent charged to secure the
silence the general demanded. Chains
were stretched across the streets and
roads in order to guard him against
the disturbance of sounds WaHen-
STEMS taciturnity and love Of silence
that caused him to be irritated at the
slightest noise was due to his consti-
tutional temperament. He never
smiled. he never asked advice from
any one, and he could not endure to
be gazed at. even when giving an or
der. The soldiers when he crossed
the camp pretended not to see him,
knowing that a serious look would
bring them MISUNDERSTANDING.
