CUTf-UT OF TOOTHPICKS.
UUlluu.. Mufasmrsl-tr neirmf,t
and Mors In ported.
There Is one article of manufacture
that la usett so extensively In the Unl-
ted States that no one has an idea of
the annual quantity consumed, namely,
wooden toothpicks. According to
expert, the number ta limply Incalcul
able. Milllous upon millions of the tiny
wooden all vera are turned out every
year from American ractoriea atone,
and on top of this tremendous output
come Importations from Portugal and
Japan and other courRrlea nearly as
large aa the domestic product,
Most of the American toothpicks, ac
cording to the New York Times,, come
from Franklin County, lu Maine, near
the forest home of the white birch, out
of which 95 per cent of the domestic
toothpicks are made. This wood la sort
aud pliable and of admirable resistance
for the purpose for which It is used.
Whole mll!s -to Maine are devoted to
supplying the country with toothpicks,
and in the ludustry Is to be fouud some
of the Quest aud most Intricate of ma
chlucry. So tremendous Is the output
of these machines that In a brief 'sea
sou, during the spring, euougb tooth
picks can be made to supply the uiar-

A further Idea of the capacity of the
machines may be bad from the fact that
only 100 men are necessary to operate
and run all the mills In Franklin Coun
ty. Otber miils of this klud are eeat-
tered throughout Pennsylvania and
j Massachusetts and western New York,
but the real home of the toothpick la
j Maine.
j White birch Is not the only wood used
t for the domestic toothpick; maple and
: poplar are employed as well, but birch
j bas the property of retaining Ita forest
odor and sweetness.
Tbe felling of toothpick trees Is only
Incidental to tbe regular lumber work
of the Maine foresters. No especial
men are sent out to hunt up sultabie
trees. But whenever the foreman of a
' eneera" Is the technical expression
for thin strips of wood no thicker than
a piece of blottlug paper and ne wid r
than the lergta of a toothpick. Once
tbe trunk bas been cut Into these sheets
of wood, only one process remains to
turn out the toothpicks fit for packing
and shipping to market Tbe veneers
are fed Into a second machine supplitd
with sharp, rotary knives that whirl at
1 tremendous high speed, snipping the
VT lDt ,b rte uf
hundreds of tbousauds an bonr.
It is only the so-called "fancy" tooth
pick that Is not made lu this country.
In Portugal, from where most of the
orange wood picks are Imported, the
sticks are sharpened by young girls
who, In return for turning out "picks"
: sharp ss needles and smooth as Ivory,
j ire paid 3 cent! a day.
The Japanese toothpicks are made of
I fine reeds, and are distinct from tboSv-
sent to this country by the Portuguese
manufacturers. A Japanese toothpick
Is delicate and thin as tissue paper, and
nevertheless strong and pliable. Th
Japanese looinptea-maker earns even
less than his Portuguese fellow crafts
man, bis remuneration being a fraction
more than 2 cents a day. In abort, a
thousand toothpicks may be bought In
Japan for as much as it costs to pack
and box 5,000 of American make.

A very natural confusion of a mod

There Is this peculiar
thing about Aycr s Hair

not a dye. Your hair docs
not suddenly turn black,
look dead and lifeless.
But gradually the old color
comes back,- all the rich,
dark color it used to have.
The hair stops falling, too.
