is CURIOUS TRADE MONOPOLY
Making Of Missionary Boxes IN England
Has Been In Hands Of Same Fam
lily for Many Generations.

It is curious how certain trades and
occupations remain peculiar to certain
families. There Is one occupation
employing a large number Of men to-
day which is In the hands Of the same
family that has been associated with
1t for many generations. It is the max
ing Of missionary boxes, says London
Tit-Bits.
It might be supposed that any car
penter could knock together a suitable
receptacle for contributions to mis-.
sionary and other charitable funds ;
but the fact remains that every mis-
sionary society, every church organ
i~zation, that requires a collecting-box
goes, as a matter OF course, to this old
established firm whose speciality it ia
to make such boxes.
It is a thriving business, and one
which has prof1ted rather than suffered
through the war, for the institution Of
flag days and other means of collect
ing funds has led to an enormous in
crease in the demand for boxes.

An announcement conveying the in
telligence that the American Express
Co. had purchased a large block of
the government bonds of the Liberty
Loan of 1917, and would give an op-
portunity to all its employees to pur-
chase such bonds at actual cost, has
been received by f. NJ. Mower, the
Augusta agent for that company. The
announcement further states that in
order to facilitate the sale of the
bonds that company would extend
privileges to the public to subscribe
for the bonds as well as to it's own
employees. The company's statement
says if a sufficient number of employees
wished to subscribe for a larger
amount of bonds than they would be
able to pay for by August 80, the COM
pany would consider a plan of provid-
ing for payment by monthly install
ments. If the bonds are sold with
such rapidity that the block becomes
exhausted before June Is. the company
will purchase as many more bonds as
are required. Particular emphasis is
placed upon the fact that these nego-
tiations will be made without profit
to the express company and that the
Liberty bonds will be free from fed
eral, State or local taxes, except es-
tate and inheritance taxes. The sub
scription books will close on or be-
fore June Is and purchasers are no
titled that all subscriptions should
be sent to the company's treasurer at
IS Broadway, New York, through the
office of the local agent. The cost will
be at par, unless the bonds are deliv-
cred after June IS, when interest of
IL per cent. will be charged for the
time beyond that date until payment
is made. The company will also re-
ceive subscriptions from individuals.
