STAMP GUM FROM POTATOES That Vegetable the _Tf:‘oqfidgflbq of ~ Sticky Substance That is Used _ on Postage Stamps. Every time a person licks a United States postage stamp he gets a taste of a sweet potato. The gum on the stamps comes from that vegetable; All of the gum 'used on the stamps is mixed at the bureau of engraving and printing, where the stamps are made. It is ‘'spread on the sheets affer the stamps have been printed. = In a liquid form, the gum is forced up through: pipes from the basement, where it is made, These pipes iead to.a series of machines consisting of rollers between which the sheets stamps are fed ope at a time. A fine spray of the liquid falls upon the rollers. The sheet with its wet coating of sweet potato mucilage passes from the rollers into a long horizontal flue filled with hot air. When it comes out at the other end of the flue the gum is dry. - o » There are two kinds- of postage mucilage. If one could see the packages of stamps as they come to the postoffice ready to‘be sold, one would’ find them labeled, according to season, “summer gum” or “winter gum.” The former'is much the harder of the tweo, and was devised to keep the stamps from getting sticky in warm, moist ‘weather. = :

HAVE THEIR TIME TO FALL Nature Has Made Provision for thé Parting of the Leaves From - the Parent Tree. @ ' - One of the most-beautifut processes in nature is the fall of the leaf. This is not, as is commonly supposed, brought about by the inclement weather of the- autumn, says a well-known authority. For the underlying cause one must look deeper. L Soon after the teaf appeared in the ‘spring °preparations were bging made for its fall. Across the base of the stalk there grew m'w,ard a partition of spécial cells, known to bontanists as the “layer of separation.” As the season advances these cells: become modified and weakened so that a springy cushion is formed. Eventually the mere weight of the leaf may be sufficlent to bring about the severance’ of the organ which the tree no longer requires. Before the leaf actually falls it surrenders all that it possesses in the way of sugar and more complex stuffs. This passes back into the tree to be stored away in the stems.

« 0o The Yl Froge . o ¢ Tough ‘going, isn’t it. Almost %Do Eé\ ”pi-"qsg{cé’ of "fig'ng’ng “out looks pretty hopeless? Maybe it will revive your faith and fortitude a teeny-weeny bit if you recall the story of the two frogs that fell into the can of milk, Try as they would, you may remember, the frogs could not leap out of the can, but fell back into the milk each time they jumped. : Finally; one frog whined: “What’s the use of trying, we can never get out.” So he curled up and was drowned. But the other frog, possessed of more determination and perseverence, kept. on struggling and struggling until 10! the milk began to be churned into butter, and then it was easy for him to get out of the difficulty. ' ‘ - Keep on struggling |--Forbes Magazine, v Therr ; - The Talkers. : _ A couple of correspondents have- favored us with the following illiteracies overheard in public places. One reports hearing a girl remark to hér friend what she thought of “Les Miserables,” Victor Herbert’s masterpiece, The other correspondent writes: Two handsomely dressed women met in a street car and after an affectionate greeting, one said: “Why, how well you look, my dear! Pos-i-tive-ly you have the gift-of the perannual youth.” “Yes,” returned the other.complacently, “so everyone says—and just think, only 'last week me and my husband" celehrated our twentieth universary.”

The moon is an example of star material that is nearly dead, and our own earth another, although each is but a tiny speck of the original system. It was once, says science, a part of the sun or star, and was thrown off by force of gravity, and being so small it cooled far more rapidly than the sun has. The sun that to us seems so great and so far brighter and larger than the stars, in reality ‘is but a speck fo many stars that in themselves are thousands of times greater than our sun, but so great is their distance from us that they seem liké pin points. it ; .
