THE BUREAU OF ENGRAY.
ING AND PRINTING.
H.-HoW Stamps and
Money Are Made.
By Frederic J. Haskin.

It Is safe to say that few persons.
with the exception Of stamp collectors.
could describe the designs upon any
three United States postage stamps. and
that still fewer have any appreciation
of their artistic value. Yet the de-
signs upon our postage stamps. and
also those upon all of our national
paper currency, are the work of some
world of the art Of engraving upon
steel Formerly of the greatest i'm
portance. because it was the only way
Of reproducing pictures in the press.
engraving has now been largely super
seded by cheap mechanical processes
and the best engravers find almost their
only employment in such work as that
required by our government
The place where these designs orisn, 81,
nate is spacious and brilliantly
lighted room in the new building OF
the bureau of engraving and printing
under the shadow of the washington
Monument. The Offices of the super
intendent of the department and OF the
Official designer, who makes the draw
ings, open upon this main room. LOW
one side of it is long row of massive
desks, each having slantins roof oi
it's own, set with ground glass pane
SO tnat the llSnI WHICH IdiLS oPoh SA.S
top of the desk is soft and uniform. AT
each of these desks sits a, an engaaSeG' ensaahed
bent over his task, wholly ABSORBED.
They remind one of nothing SO mucn as Is
of pictures of medieval monks monks at In WORK 3he
upon Illuminated manuscripts. IN tne
midst of a humming factory with
tremendous output. this one room has
an atmosphere of serene and time-oe-
flying patience. which seems to pelons
to another day. as. indeed, does the art
which is practiced there. The modern
world of hurry and quick results might
we'll take lesson from those precise
and patient toilers. who work from four
to eight months upon the space OF
single postage stamp. carving with tne
free-hand designs as fine and intricate
as the tracery Of veins in the wing OF
a beetle.
annealed steel with a finely tempered
tool. No one man completes a design.
The workers are classified as portrait.

engravers, and each Is confined to his
speciality, in which he has the highest
imaginable skill.

Honorable.
From Judge,

Marjorie. aged four. was in the IL
brary with her father while her
mother was experimenting the prep
aration Of dinner. The attention of
the head Of the house was attracted by
a scratching sound. and he looked up
to find his daughter at work with a
pair Of scissors on the top Of a pol
ished table.
Marjorie" he said. sternly, go tell
your mother what you've been doing

is strictly a system which creates hon
esty by absolutely removing tempta :
ton. There are literally millions of
dollars in sight all OF the time. Bills
of large denominations leap from the
wonderful little machines in a steady
stream. But 1t would be as impossible
to take or steal one of those bills and
from a star.
Just outside Of each cage stands a
tall chest of narrow drawers. much like
those in which thread is kept in a de-
partment store. These are filled with
the completed money, which Is ready
to be packed and sent out for circu-
lation.
A numerical statement OF the daily
output Of the bureau of engraving and
printing Is not impressive. because the
numbers are SO large that the average
person cannot conceive them. Thus,
forty million postage stamps are man
ufactured every day and sent to 10000
post offices. A more vivid idea of their

made by Director Ralph that this daily
