Printing Stamps by Millions.

Few labor-saving machines are m,
 ingenious in combining a number of operations, or more impressive in the amount of work they do, than the new stamp-printing presses of the United States bureau of printing and engrav- ing. Each press, with two operators, moiStens, prints, gums and rolls total of 100000 postage stamps in an eight-hour day, states an article in Popular Mechanics. The perforations are made both lengthwise and across, both the roll and the punches being adjustable for position. One operator, in front, takes care of the unwindng roll and adjusts it's path to the per fOrators by means of a screw. The other operator, at the rear, regulates the speed of the machine and inspects the finished work. Finally, the roll is cut irtO sleefs of 400 stamps each.

Venice Once Supreme City.

A few centuries ago Venice was the gateway for the commerce of all cen- tral Europe. particularly to and from the Near East. It was here that the merchants of the earth congregated and many money lenders piled their vocation of collecting usury
 The Rialto bridge, made famous by Shakespeares "The Merchant of Venice" still stands. This structure once afforded meeting place for mer- chant princes to discuss the business of the world. In those days Venice was among the most important of sea ports. Its harbor was constantly alive with merchant ships, as well as pas senger vessels. It is still unique city, in that it's streets are chiefly water ways or canals, but although still a city beautiful, and far famed for it's fine arts, it's glory and importance as commercial center have passed away.

SALTS F BACKACHY
 AND KIDNEYS HURT
Drink iots of water and stop eating meat for . while if your Bladder
 troubles you

When you wake up with backaehe and dull misery in the kidney region it gen. orally means you have been eating too much meat, says a well-known authority. Meat forms uric acid which overworks the kidneys in their effort to filter it from the blood and they become sort of Paralyzed and loggy. When your kidneys get sluggish and clog you must relieve them, like you relieve your bowels; re- moving all the body's urinous waste, else you have backache, sick headache, dizzy spells; your stomach sours, tongue is coated, and when the weather is bad you have rheumatic twinges. The urine is cloudy, full of sediment, channels often get sore, water scalds and you are obliged to seek relief two or three times during the night.
 Either consult good, reliable physi- clan at once or get from your pharmacist tablespoonful in glass of water before breakfast for few days and your kidneys will then act fine. This famous salts is made from the acid of grapes and lemon juice, combined with lithia, and has been used for generations to clean and stimulate sluggish kidneys, also to neutralize acids in the urine so it no longer irritates, thus ending bladder weakness.
 lad Salts is 8 life saver for regular meat eaters. It is inexpensive, cannot injure and makes a delightful, efer- yescent Whitewater drink.

TALKED WITH MONKEY KING"
Buddhist Disciple Was Positive That the Animal Understood Speech
 He Addressed to Him.

A third degree disciple of Buddha who halls from the famous Yellow mountains (Huang Shan) says they are the home of tigers, wildcats, wild horses, goats. boars and an animal re- sembling panther, with bristly hair and impervlous skin-and monkeys.
 The monkeys he divided into two classes, one the ordinary brown monkey with a tail, the other white breasted and white faced, with a gray back and but little smaller than a man. He intimated that this type manifested degree of intelligence when spoken to, very much resembled man, and was tailless.
 To this second class belongs what he called "the Great White Monkey King" ruler of all the beasts of the mountains, and described as being more than twenty feet talr with arms ten feet long. four tusks each at least foot long. face and eyes propor- tiOnately large and a voice that made the earth trembe whenever it spoke.
 He said he had seen this great mOn- key king twice-once at a distance of half Ii. and once when he dropped down from a high cliff and stood with in fifteen feet of it. On this occa- sion the monkey king was attended by five smaller monkeys
 He attempted to address them, whereupen they all sat down and gave respectful hearing. punctuating his re- marks with assenting grunts which in- dicated that the message was being understood. When he had finished his speech the monkey king arose mutter- ing something and started away.

kee4 Pace With the Child,

When the child is a tiny creature, the parent must exercise self-control, gentleneSS, tact-never allowing her temper to interfere with judgment or to cause her to speak harshly or in anger, says Mothers Magazine. As years go on, the most loving child is also a critic. Mothers way" has here tofore seemed to him the best way It rests with the mother to make it seem so always. To this end she must keep pace with her boys and girls in thought, in education, in new ideas. Parents cannot go to school again, but they can have their minds alert and open for all new facts. And they can watch their own manners and language so that the children can con- tinue to use these as models.
