Ever since the Victoria cross wns instituted by Queen Victoria at the end of the Crimean war the making of the medals has been In the hands of the same firm. The ordinary medal Is ' made from a steel die, being slam; ed ami completed in the same process. But the metal from which the Victoria ‘crosses are made is so hard-that no die would stand it without breaking It is well known that the first crosses were made from captured Russian guns, but now the materials come from guns taken from the Chinese. With an order for the cross Is sent a supply of the metal. First a rough cast of the cross is made, and this lias to be filed, drilled and chased. The chasing occupies the attention of a skilled urtisan for man.', hours. The bar is a separate casting and is also chased. The authorities are most careful to see that none o. the metal is wasted. It is most care fully served out, and if any is left over from one lot of crosses it is used u_- before a fresh supply can be obtained —London Globe.

No one can say exactly why our sc< retarles of state sign diplomatic com munieatlons with their surnames onl.i except that it has always been so. W copied the custom from European chai; cellcries, and it probably has its origin In the habit of royalty, which is to sign with one name only. Thus Kin- George of England signs bimseli “George, R. I.” (Rex, Imperator—King Emperor); Sir Edward Grey signed ul wavs as "Grey;” the democratic Mr. Bryan When secretary of state affixed his signature to diplomatic notes as “Bryan.” At first sight there seems to bo a profound flattery implied in the custom. It assumes that the signer cannot be mistaken; that there is only one “George,” and “Grey,” one “Bry an.” And generally there is only one in the diplomatic world where these exchanges take place.—New York Sun The finished clothes will be delivered when you say the w<°rd and prices will be gen- uinely economical.

Got There All Right. and assortment TAYLOR-WILLIAMS CO “Arsenic, as science has long told us Is an accumulative poison,” said a druggist. “When one takes It either by prescription for tlie upbuilding of an appetite or for tlie bleaching of the skin he does not feel any ill effects for several years. The effect of the drug Is bracing and makes a person feel like eating. It also aids the digestion The average user of the poison takes it In such small quantities that he does not realize how much of It will ac cumulate in his system in the course of four or five years. “Being an accumulative poison, it often takes that length of time to see the results of tlie drug. Then the user may complain of not being able to con trol bis fingers or toes. Subsequently he loses control of his hands and arms Paralysis, superinduced by arsenical poisoning, is tlie fearful result" Many years ago, at tlie beginning of November, a missive bearing the St Albans postmark readied St. Martin’s. The envelope was addressed “lud mar lunding.” Neither tail nor head could be made out of this by the staff, so the envelope was opened for a clew. The letter read, “kenyobiauosfoyosho bll igs.” The practiced St. Martin's decipherer of puzzles promptly made out the sig nature ns “Bill Illggs.” With the key tills afforded the rest was deliciously easy. Tlie message was, “Can you buy a horse for your show?" and “lud mar" meant "lord mayor.” So the let ter, with an official translation consid erately appended, was delivered to the lord mayor elect.—London Mail. in | JACKSONVILLE, OREGON Weather Repott.
