in diameter. Air is forced in by means of an
electrically operated fan.
There is also a semvault, where partly COM
pleted money is kept for 80 days to dry the ink.
Each workroom has a semvault, where the days
work is safeguarded until the time comes to
remove it to of the larger vaults.
An elaborate system of signals is employed In
the building. There is watchman's time detec-
tor system, with stations for reporting at each
section of the factory and in addition to COM
plete telephone system there is method for call
ing the various division superintendents to the
Office of the director. Another innovation is the
division reporting system.
BY means of red, white and green lights the
superintendent of each division will report to the
captain of the watch at the closing hour whether
his section is "clear'-that is, If every sheet OF
stamps money and every printing plate has
been accounted for at the conclusion of the days
work and has been checked into one of the vaults
the superintendent will operate a switch which
will light the white bulb in the Office Of the cap
tain of the watch. In case something is missing
the red bulb will show light and this will order
the division held until the missing article is &C
counted for.

Each employe is therefore careful to account for
each sheet entrusted to his care, for he knows If
it is lost he has to pay for its face value
The workers who responsible for the money
and stamps manufactured report to the bureau at
eight o'clock each morning and perform eight
hours service. The highest paid man in the
bureau is the director who receives Sc, 900 per
annum. The employees generally receive from as
little as $500 year to maximum of 50 100. The
majority of women work counters upon
stamp perforating machines and they receive
from $500 to $500 a year.

Deliberate Lie!

In Mr.. Arnold Haultain's new biog-
raphy of Goodwin Smith there is fun
ny story of the late duke of Cam
bridge 1t is pretty well known that
in his old age his royal highness de-
veloped a habit of thinking aloud that
was sometimes rather awkward for
those near him. He was particularly
inclined to this when in church, and
it was quite a common thing to hear
a gruff, loud comment issue from his
pew when everybody else was silent
On one occasion he was present at
the marriage of some princess or other
to an inpecunious German prince OF
whom the duke apparently did not ap-
prove The ceremony was proceeding
smoothly, and the bridegroom repeat
ed the words: with all my worldly
goods 1 thee endow." Suddenly the
duke raped out: Rubbish! Why,

Notable Difference.

A good story is told of Signor Mat
tel, the composer, whose death was
announced the other day.
OF one of his valses Mattel used to
tell the yarn how he played it through
at soiree in a certain London draw
ing room, when his hostess approached
him with the request that he would
play it.
Mattel, of course, explained as tact
fully as possible that he had already
just played it. The hostess, quite I'M
moved, then said
"Oh! but that is not the real Mat
tel Valse' My daughter plays that.
and it is not bit like what you just
played"

Honest.

A story is told on young man who
was married recently to the daughter
of a wealthy merchant. The bride
groom did not have a cent, but he
made UP for lack of wealth in honesty.
He was so very honest that he would
not even prevaricate in the marriage
ceremony.
He was repeating what the minister
read: with all my worldly goods l
thee endow."
with all thy worldly goods l me
endow," repeated the young man. May
be it was slip of the tongue, still it
would be hard for honesty to go much
further.-New York Times.

PROVED TRUTH OF ADAGE
Story Seems to Show Fact That
"Prophet Is Without Honor in
His Own Country.

William Phelps Emo, who devised
the system of traffic regulations now
practised in New York, and who has
been called the father of street traf-
fic regulation" had a hard time at first
impressing his ideas on public officials.
Foreign cities appreciated them more
than American cities. Paris, threat
ened with a strike of the cab drivers
unless the system of Emo we're put in
effect, adopted it. Then Buenos Ayres
sent for Mr.. Emo, asked him to work
out a plan for it's traffic, and agreed to
every suggestion he made.
A year or two later Mr.. Emo was
introduced, as traffic regulation au-
thority, to a much-traveled resident OF
Washington.
The globe-trotter shook hands with
him, and then said in rather patron
izing manner:
eff you want to know what's what in
a street-traff1c system, Mr.. Emo, you
ought to see the way they do the trick
in Buenos Ayres."

Then, in a quiet, conversational tone,
the famous insolvency began to talk
to the jury. He made no mention of
the murder. He just described in vivid

stopped, he drew himself up to his
full height. Then, striking the table
with his fist, he cried. in voice that

who is now a fellow of the Royal So
ciety of Literature, visited Ireland
thirty years ago. On landing at Kings
town, her majesty was met by the ia

who greeted her with, "All hail. Car
men Sylvia! Sure, there never was a
country in the world where your maj
esty could meet a finer lot of boys of
your Christian name"
The queen smiled, accepted copy
of his biography, and gave him half a

to the cab rank, joyfully exclaimed,

drink four pints of water day? And
yet that is the minimum quantity that
the replenishmept Of the daily loss of
water by the body demands, to say
nothing of the need of water as a
solvent for the solid food we absorb.
Another important point that Dr.
Dixon dwells on is that the free drink

Good Word for the Grass-Widower.

Good Word for the Grass-Widower.
No one seems to dwell on the
charms of the grass-widower; and OF
all men, he is the most attractive.
He hasn't a wife in his immediate
vicinity to demand all his attentions;
he hasn't the consciousness of his own
eligibility like the average bachelor,
nor the shadow OF a dead romance
about him like a bona-fide widower-
IN fact, for ordinary social purposes
there's nothing so convenient OF
charming as the grass-widower. -
