 This is no mere paper argument. Such system is actually practiced in a ticket manufactory at Tokio. It is a small factory with less than 50 hands.

But I felt that l was clumsy, indeed, and also admitted that my inspection was useless. What had expected to see did not know, but what I did witness was the very ordinary sight of one man in monde script garb swiftly rowing boat, while another man, attired, as far as could distinguish. in. rather natty sportsman's clothing, was huddled in the bow of the boat in such 8 posi- ton that one could not ascertain his stature, his size or his features.
 Jerry Ticer's excited ejaculation made me put down the glasses quickly.

Therc are so many different kinds of brushes nowadays, that if one is trying to economize in equipment by purchasing only the most necessary and many-sided labor savers. one is rather at sea as to what to choose.
 A brush that means a lot to me is one for wipinE down walls. This is a tbig, fluffy piece of lambs wool on a long handle. The wool comes off and spreads out fiat so it is very easy to wash and always f1uffs out to its natural state of softness so there is no danger of marring the wall paper.
 Constant attention to the walls will mean a big saving in cleaning and papering bills. But a rag tied over a broom has been known to do more harm than good.

The extra time spent in squeezing oranges for juice more than repays one. The cheaper oranges with seeds are usually sweeter and just as juicy as the big, expensive, navel oranges Of course, if halves of the fruit are served it is almost necessary to use the larger oranges, but for juice the small ones are just as good.
