Permission Often Long Delayed.

1t tool King Edward VII of England
a long time before he could get per-
mission from the American congress
to give a silver Ink stand to George ii.
Bridgman, then American consul at
Kingston, Jamaica, and a silver writ
ing set to Arthur M. Beaupre, who
was Their United States minister to the
Argentine republic. Edward also had
at one time In stock a large number of
souvenir coronation medals. a few
swords and several watches which he
wanted to hand over with the express
sion of his kingly regard to American
army and navy officers and to sew
eral lighthouse keepers who owed al
legiance to this republic. 1t took Ed
ward a long time to have his kingly
way in the matter.
The shah of Persia had to wait two
years before he was given leave TO
present n diamond snuff box to Rich
mond Pearson. who at n time was
our minister at Teheran. The khedive
of Egypt wanted to bestow on Ethel
bert Watts the decoration of the Order
of OSmanle, Dut tnere was q delay
of several years.
A good many years ago an emperor
of China picked out twenty Americans
whom he wished to honor with the
decoration of the Double Dragon.
Congress allowed a score of It's coun-
try's citizens to receive the decoration,
but IL the truth must be told II
should be set down that these decora-
tons were generally known as be-
longing to the second class of gifts.
In other words, the emperor was not
paying n full compliment to the TWEEN
ty selected Americans when he con-
ferred the Double Dragon upon them.
Perhaps the Triple Dragon would
have been better.

ODD CURE FOR RHEUMATISM
Might Have Been Effective In 1742,
but One Would Hesitate to
Recommend II.

rheumatism is associated with a
greater number of superstitions than
any other complaint.
In Holland there are people who be-
lieve that a potato begged OF stolen Is
an effective preventive, while chest
nuts are said to possess the same
efficacy.
In the Midlands of England the
right forefOot of n hare, carried In the
pocket, is regarded as a fine amulet,
and the Cornish villager Is apt to put
his trust in n piece of the wood of
the mountain ash.
Perhaps the strangest "cure" for
rheumatism is that which is to be
found In the "Compleat Housewife, or
Accomplished Gentlewoman's COM
panion"-a work published in 1T42:
Let the party take Of the finest
glazed gunpowder as much as n large
thimble may hold; wet it in n spoon
with milk from the COW, and drink n
good half-pint of warm milk after 1t;
be covered warm In bed and sweat ;
give 1t fasting about even In the
morning, and take this nine or ten
mornings together"

TRUTH ABOUT BUREAU OF
ENGRAVING DISMlSSALS.

BY EDWARD B.. CLARK

MISUNDERSTANDING to the view
points of protectionists and free trad
ers or nea free traders, the tariff Is
either a blessing or u curse, q tax or u
reward. This year the tariff accord
ing to everybody's viewpoint is pretty
much of a puzzle.
The bonus. which also according to
the viewpoints is a blessed thing or
a blameworthy thing, also is much of
a puzzle. The tariff and the bonus,
therefore, are twin puzzles confront
ing the majority in congress for solu-
ton.
The tariff with all Its in~tricacies and
with all its uncertainties arising Hut
of lack of definite knowledge of eco-
Domic conditions In Europe, and the
bonus with all its perplexing features,
are as nothing in the way of u puzzle
to something Of which the world al
ready knows and which happened re-
Gently in the bureau of engraving and
printing. 1t is the chief puzzle of
them all and members of congress are
not alone in trying to find an answer. All
Washington is interested, and to a con-
siderable extent all the country Is In
terested. Certain it is that there Is
concern among the federal employees
everywhere throughout the country in
this recent happening.
Time in its passing has not carried
away with 1t interest, suspicion n
some other things connected with the
discharge q while ago of thirty-one EN-
ployees of the bureau Of engraving
and printing. Some few Of these dis
charged ones have been reinstated.
The others still are minus their Jobs.
1.-THE Hidden Mystery"
To this story there we'll might be
transferred the title to a book which
was circulated during the war and
which occupied the attention of GER
tain officials of government. This book
was called 1.-THE Hidden Mystery al
though why it was necessary to use
the adjective hidden before the word
mystery" no one seems to know.
officials of the government, includ-
ing the President of the United States,
have had their attention called sharp
ly to the so-called hidden mystery of
the bureau of engraving and printing,
and in a way probably not altogether
to the liking of these officials, high

Foreign Hcnors Bestowed on Many.
Thousands of American civilians
and soldiers are wearing today
buttons or ribbons showing that
they received foreign decorations for
valor or service during the great war.
Uncle Sans servants, that Is men who
are in his employment In any public
capacity, must get the permission of
congress before they can accept from
the hands of any foreign government
or king a gift of any kind.
The acceptances of military decora-
tions given for service In the great
wal were authorized by congress. An
American in civilian life Is not COM
PEELED to get the congressional per-
mission to accept n foreign decoration
or a foreign gift.
Over in the State department there
Is a curious collection of odds and
ends of gifts and decorations which
were sent In other days to Americans
in official life who never were given

few members of congress today 10
whom certain things have been offered
by foreign governments, but who as
yet have not received permission to
wear them OF use them.
In M elder day congress at inter-
walls would give leave to several army
and navy officers and a few civilian
employees Of the government to ac-
cept gifts from foreign potentates.
Congress always was rather chary
about taking this action, but on &C.
casion when 1t was shown that some
men really had won the decorations
or deserved the gifts and that there
was no political or diplomatic inten-
ton in their comforting, congress
would relent.
Mr.. Root Called Them "Gentlemen."
When Elihu Root was secretary of
state he did something which was re-
garded as curious. In a communication
to congress asking permission to turn
over to waiting mes some of the
decorations of foreign governments in
tended for them he asked leave that
certain gentlemen be authorized to ac-
cept orders from foreign govern
ments."
Ordinarily the officials of the State
department were content to speak col
lectively of those of whom they were
writing as persons" but Mr.. Root
for some reason or other inserted the
word gentlemen" for persons" Con-
gress made somewhat merry at the
time wei the distinction which Mr..
Root made without probably Intend
ing to make any at all. The trouble
was that the secretary of state did
not include in his request the names
of all those who had been offered pres
ents by foreign governments, and the
entirely gratuitious assumption was
that those whose names were not men,
toned were not gentlemen.
Since the day that the United States
became a world power every nation
on the face of the globe has sought
to give its officials presents of one
kind or another. Once on a time the
emperor Of Ethiopia was n of the
monhrchs to come bearing gifts. 1t was
his desire to present q ribbon, a pin

Slump In Microscopes.

The general depression In the OPP
teal trade is being felt very severely
by British microscope makers, most
of whom are working with reduced
staffs. Some are only working alter
nate weeks. This is partly due, no
doubt, to overproductlon during the
war, when a large number of micro
scopes were supplied to the order of
the government, but ever taking this
into account the demand is now alb
normally small. With hospitals pov-
erty is a natural excuse, but in other
cases, such as that of schools, it is not
so easy to explain why so few new
instruments are being purchased. Ac-
cording to one large firm the great
majority of microscopes now pur-
chased are for purposes connected
with Observation-Disclosures Guar
