Counting Out of Date.

No longer is it regarded as good manners to count uniform nieces one by one in manufacturing plants. Scales especially constructed for the purpose are now being employed for counting material of like units. Not only is the weighing machine more accurate because it substitutes simple manual operation and the highest degree of mechanical precision for the complicated mental figuring and inaccuracies of other systems, but it counts from 100 to 1,000 per cent faster than the time-worn methods. —Chicago Journal
