HE IS NUTTY NO MORE.
Insurance Agent Discovers Disadvan-
 tagc of His Silly Name.

New York, March 25.-It took John David Nutty, of 567 West 1S6th street, long time to discover the dis advantage of his name. When he did find out that his cognomen did not go well with his business of life insur- ance agent he decided to do some thing about it. Therefore he is now no longer. rNuttX, but Nutley. The change was drought about through an order signed yesterday by Justice Cav egan.
 ''The word 'nutty," said Nutty, "is commonly used as a slang expression to denote insanity and a person of un- balanced mind" He continued that in his business he had to call upon many persons and that his name made "an unfavorable impression upon them" He was frequently the subject of jests Nutty added, which placed him in humiliating position.
 Nutty is thirty-four years old and married. There are no Nutty children.

The gross. output of the entire coun- try was s2O,672, 100000.
 According to the City bank the man. ufacturers of the United States are now doubla those of any other coun- try in the world. In manufacturers exported the same auth ority says this co,;'try also leads. Normally, how . ever, the United States ranks third among the nations in the exportation ct manufactures, being exceeded in normal years by both Great Britain ar <, Germany.
 One especially interesting feature n the study of our census returns now being received" concludes the City banks statement, lis not only the marked advance in wages pa;d for la. hor,. but ., continuation of ;he ten CGr cy to substitute mach ne work for E"nd labor wherever practt cable The rumber of wage earnec5 reported by tue returns thus far roae ved shows an increase of about Der cent. over the 1910 census, while the wages paid show an increase of 19 per cent
