Where Uncle 8am Turns Out Paper
Money and Postage Stamps.
Official Paper of the City of Jacksonville, Oregor '
One of the most luteresting sights
at the national capital to the hundreds
of thousands of strangers who yearly
visit Wai liingtoa ts the bureau of en­
graving and printing, where the gov­
ernment turns out immense amounts
of the pnr«r money which we dally
see iu circulation.
Much of this pnper money—green­
backs an 1 gold and silver certificates—
Is issued directly by the government
itself, w nile 'fhe remainder Is prepared
for issue t>y the national banks
throng).out the country. These Issues
are printed from engraved steel plates
of the fittest workmanship on a pe­
culiar. distinctive paper, which, it is
said, counterfeiters have never' yet
beei able to imitate. This establlsh-
me at also produces government bonds
wl »never there is a call for such. In
ad dltlon. postage stamps are manu­
re rtured there in vast quautities, re-
c mtly at the rate of 30,000,000 a day
c r about 10,000,000,000 per year. This
■ i^gregate blds fair to increase annual­
ly and in time to reach huge propor­
tions.
While the products of the bureau
are Interesting, the mechanical de­
vices employed by It are most ingen­
ious, comprising many automatic ma­
chines of wonderful efficiency. The
utmost vigilance is exercised in guard­
ing the products of the bureau, and
generally everything proceeds there in
the most systematic and efficient man­
ner.—Leslie’s.

A gentleman remarked to us that the
true theory of life 'was to get on the

and objurgntory sldje of life. We be­

State Journal. “Lcok on tho bright

tion that we put In our notebook mor»

Itospel. It is the doctrine of hope.
Grumbling at everything is un-Chris-
tian. It will condemn a man as sure
us profanity ar lying.
The Bible says, ‘"But let all those
that put their trust In thee rejoice.”
There is philosophy for this. A per-
sou cannot do any good in a bad spirit.
If one hates a man ho cannot reform
him. Every good thing that a man
does pulls some evil up by tho roots.
Good deeds grow by smiles as tho
wheat grows by the sunshine. Boost
the good and the bad will have a poor
chance.
It Is right to curb tbe evil if one does
not waste all his strength at it, so that
be will have to sit down and lose heart.
There Is no final defeat In an honest,
sincere effort, and that is the doctrine
of tbe upward look and the bright side
of life.
