To test the new-laid eggs.

Important to Lumberman.
The attempt of the Government lo in
duce the adoption of conservative meth
ods of lumbeiiiig in older to preserve
Ibe national resources, and Ihe respon
sive interest taken by limber owners,
have brought up many interesting legal
questions, and the Divison of Forestry
lias found it necesfary to make exten
ivo researches in ibis direction
As the result, a circular dealing -with
the laws which afTccl forests is lu course
of preparation and will bo tcnl freo to
persons interested. Ouc of the most im
portant points brought out is the recog
nition by law of the prospective value of
growing limber, Tho possibility of
pioliiably carrying on lumbering with
systematic provision for future cutliug
depends upon ibis point.
ll has usually been held that when, by
trespass or by unscrupulous cutting by
contractors, tinilier has been removed
contrary to the owner's wibh, he could
recover only its Blumpage value. As
forestry usually requires that a certain
number of trees of certain size be left,
it follows that au unscrupulous con
tractor could easily upset the plans of
years with little fear of punishment.
The Supreme Court, however, has re
cently ruled that difference in value be
tween logged andunlogged land depends
not only on the value of tho timber re
moved, but on its probable increase had
it been left untouched. U. f. Deparlm't

THE VARIOUS WAYS IN WHICH BILLS

A great many men nave cranky Mesa
about Dmtarlnc tbetr bills for ready
handling. One plan la to fold each bill
separately, keeping the denomimitlens
npart In tbe various divisions of their
pocketbooka. This method facilitates
tbe search for tbe desired sum when
making a purchase. This Is almost a
sure guard against passing out a bill
of tbe wrong denomination.
Then there are men wbo make a
neat roll of all their bills. Tbe ttrst Is
rolled by itself to about tbe size of a
lead pencil, tbe next Is lapped about
it, and so on to tbe end. Then a rub
ber band Is placed about the eutire
lot. When It Is desired to use one of
! the bills, the rubber Is removed and
tbe end of the first bill caught be
tween the thamb and forefinger of the
right hand while the roll Is held be
tyern tbe thumb and forefinger of the
hft Itaud. Then the bill Is quickly un-
njciiud, none of the others being dis
turbed.
A great ninny men never carry r
pocketbook. One rensou for this Is
that a well worn purse more easily
slips from the pocket than n roll of
bills. Then, ngnin, tbe bulk of n pock
elbook Is niiuoylng. It lakes up too
mi;cb room, especially where the pan
taloons nre made suite;. When pocket
books nre not carried, a favorite re
ceptacle is Ibe wntch pocket When
this Is used, the bills nre made up Into
a little, bard bunch. Their presence
Is always felt against the body. In a
crowd there Is no dauger of loslug
them, and when traveling with auy
considerable sum this is a safe de
pository. Some men have a fad of carrying a
lot of new bills In un envelope that Is
kept 111 ouc of tbe Inside pockets. Now
nnd theu a innii Is found who keeps a
few bills in every pocket. lie goes on
tho theory that if be is robbed of one
lot a sufficient amount will remain to
last hlin until be reaches home. He
starts out feeling that be is going to
bo robbed aud makes provision to meet
every possible emergency. lie usually
makes three folds of bis bills and
lucks them away in the corners of bis
pockets with extreme cure. He does
not feci aurprlsiMl if he tluds upon
making an inventory after nrrivlng
home that a part of ids funds has dis
appeared, as be expected to be robbed.
Any number of men are found who
keep only n little working capital iu
their trousers pockets, tbe bulk of their
funds Ix'iug concealed lu broad. Hat
wallets In the Inside pocket of their
waistcoats. These bills nre always ( f
largo denominations and folded once.
When a man brlugs forth bis reserve
funds, l will be found that all the
bills have a smooth, bright appear
ance. They have lieen with him so
loug that they are as lint us a sheet
from a letter press.
Very few men lu this country carry
I coins In pmses. In England purses are
common. The material Is generally
pigskin, but uudresscd kid Is also used
extensively. Tbe former have two
compartments, one for small gold coJus
and the other for silver. It Is some-,
times ntnnstnx to watch a man with n
little undressed kid bag pay his fare
on the street cars, especially If he Is
wearing thick dogskin gloves. Only
conductors with groat patience can
watch tbe proceeding with complacen
cy. A woman can pick out live pennies
from beneath a roll of bills In con
siderably less time than It takes the
man with the kid purse to bring forth
a nickel. One renson that the kid
purse Is not popular Is Iwcnuse it feels
like the half of a small dumbbell in
the pocket when fairly well llllrd. lu
London It Is the proper thing to carry a
pigskin owlug to tbe large circulation
of sovereigns. It Is essential to keep
tbe gold nnd silver sepnate In order to
avoid mistakes.
There are coin cranks as well as pa
per money cranks. Some years ago
there lived a little, round faced man
over In the Back Bay who came Into
tbe business district cvety week clay
morning at precisely ! o'clock. In
paying his fare he nhvnyi passed i' n
bright, new nickel that looked as If It
bad come to him fresh from the mini.
Where or how he irot them was a mys

that the new money wns used to es

through the handling of money that
had been In common use.
There are any numlier of ioople wbo

With the charitable puipose of pre
senting a psychological explanation for
the inaccuracy which nil too often marks
the work of perfectly honest reporters
The Christian I.egister says: "When one
is listening to a discourse, two tilings oc
cupy his mind at the same time the on",
the discourse to which lie is listening; the
other, the train of thought suggested to
him by the discourse. The second runs
along in his mind parallel with tiie firsl
aud fic(uently is remembered and re
ported iu place of the discourse, which is
forgotten."
Thcie is something, perhaps a ;rooi!
deal, iu this theory, hut however well it
may serve as an explanation its utility as
an excuse is of the smallest. The sim
plest way out of the difficulty is to lay
the blame en Dnme Nature, whose hos
tility to exact duplications of any kind is
illustrated in every inch of her broad do
main. No two men ever heard or saw a
thing alike, and probably no two ever
will. Reporters are no more fallible than
other people: indeed, their accuracy is
far above the average. They, however,
have a thousand critics where other folks

Before and After.
Some years ago a young curate. --eek-Ing
to be licensed, was bidden by lr.
Temple, archbishop of Canterbury, to
read a few verses of the Bible in order
that his fitness for conducting public
worship might be judged.
"Not loud euoiiffh." was the criticism of
the bishop when the youux man had fin
ished. "Oh, I'm sorry to hear that, my lord,"
replied the curate. "A lady in the church
yesterday told me I could he heard most
plainly all over."
"Ah! You nre engngisIT' suddenly ask
ed Dr. Temple.
"Yes. my lord."
The bishop smiled grimly and Maid:
"Now, listen to me, young mnn. While
you are engaged don't lcliove everything
tbe lady tells you; but," he added, with
a deep chuckle, "after you nre married
believe every word she says."
