WANT THE BRAND-NEW GOLD Manufacturara of Trlnkata Precioua Metal Seek That Which le Freeh From the Mint An article in which Santa Claus deals heavily Is gold thimbles Philadelphia supplies an enormous number of them, one manufacturer being especially prominent. That city is also a wedding ring producing center. The ladies who wear the thimbles and the brides who get the rings inky be interested in knowing that a large number of them are made from brand new gold coins. The manufacturer does not want an old gold coin, because there Is an appreciable difference in the amount of metal in a new and an old $lO gold piece. So the ring and thimble maker, knowing the value of what appears to be trifles, takes his check or his paper money to a bank and gets In exchange the newest of new gold money. No gold has been worn off these coins in the handling. The money is melted, and that's where the thimbles and the rings come from, or at least a good many of them. There seems to be an Impression that one may not destroy United States money, but that Is an error. It is unlawful to mutilate a coin, but you commit no crime when you utterly destroy either paper money or metal currency. There Is no law to prevent the old stun; of lighting a cigarette with a $lO bi’l — none, except the law of common Sense. The man who burns the money Is the only loser. If a bank were accidentally to destroy son < wiper money, It might have It rer'.actd with new notes upon preeentjit!’.'ti to the United States treasury of proof that the old money had really disappeared.

CAN DO WITHOUT ALBUMEN hot Necessary to Plant Life, but Its Absence Means That Growth Will Not Be Natural. That albumen, the nourishing matter stored in the seeds of many plants, is not essential to the development of the seed, has been shown by experiments in making seeds germinate after they have been deprived of their albumen. By this "starving” process queer vegetable specimens have been obtained, many of them dwarfed or deformed, but it hasproved that vegetable matter may nttain growth without being nourished by albumen. It Is believed now that albumen it only a reserve food intended to sustain the young plant until it has become strong enough to seek u: own food. If put to the test the ycirt".;

plant can dispense with this re serve food, but not without sufferiikß from the privation. These researches go to pro he possibility of creating moaair. us plants at will. In the same way Ca mille Daresle produced at will deformed chickens by interfering with the normal evolution of the egg, either by varnishing a" part of its surface or by exposing it to a too stn...f heat, or by tormenting it in some other manner.

Girl’s Trap Catches Mouse. At last a now way has been idcovered for catching mice. And a Broadway show girl is the discoverer of the new device. It happens that she chanced across the scheme purely by accident. She purchase- i a do'.cn oysters in the shell and left them on the table in the kitchenette of her apartment while she went to her boudoir to have a few bouts with the rouge box. When she returned to the kitchenette she found firmly caught in the shell of one of the oysters a dead mouse. The oyster had been dragged fully a foot from the plate and traces on the table showed there had been a struggle. Mr. Mouse had ventured into the oyster when he opened his shell to get some air, head first, and Mr. Oyster just clamped together like a vise and crushed tho unfortunate rodent. Since then every show girl is leaving oysters in all parts of their apartments. In Gwalior City. The state o' Gwalior. In centin; Itlia. is one of the wealthiest and most progressive districts in the great hast ern empire. Gwalior City, the State capital, has fine public buildings and parks. The maharaja's palace is larger and more ornate than he official residence of the president of the United States. The furnishings arc magnificent. At official banquets n most ingenious American electrical device of silver is used for passing around the after-dinner coffee, cordials and cigars. This is in the form of a miniature locomotive and train of cars, which, operating from an electric battery and running over a diminutive track laid alor .' the table, is so constructed that it automatically stops before each guest.
