Harbor points Take Puget 8ound Limited for Otym pla direct Improved Paper Will Save Two Mentha . ' S f In Printing. Oyer's Stationer announces that the daya of the crisp bank note are numbered. Instead ot being crlap, the money which the government bureau of engraving and printing will here after turn out will be soft and velvety, Important experiments which are now being conducted In the presence of treasury officera for the purpose of demonstrating the advantages of , a novel chemical treatment for paper prove satisfactory The result of the adoption of the new secret process will be to revolutionize a portion of the work connected with the printing of the paper money of the United States. Under the new process It will take Just days less time to manufacture a bank note than under the present method. The chemical solution not only renders the paper soft and velvety, but also makes It non-shrlnkable. By applying it to a Japanese napkin, that article becomes as soft and pliable as a tissue of silk. The chemical prepara tion acts as an anti-septic and pre ventative. When applied to old docu ments it seems to knit the fiber to gether and prevent further decay. Un der the present process of printing pa per money the paper has to be thor oughly soaked In Water. While it Is. in this soaked condition one side of the paper Is printed. The sheet is then placed In a steam room and kept under high temperature for 30 days, the time necessary for the ink to dry. The sheet is again soaked as in the first instance and the reverse side of the bill printed. The 30-day drying pro cess then has to be repeated. In cases where a third impression on the bill Is necessary, which is required when the printing is done in .two colors, the wetting and drying process has to be repeated for a third time, and another month is thus consumed in its pro duction. Besides the delay of this process, the wetting and drying rot the fiber of the paper, and although it Is 'starched' to give it the crisp ap pearance, the starch soon wears out and the bill becomes limp and worn. , In printing bills on paper that has been treated by the new process no wetting Is necessary. The ink loses none of Its luster when applied to the paper, as under the old proceas, and is thor oughly dry within 48 hVurs after the printing is done." Live to Ripe Old Age. London, Sept 22.
