[ About 1819 two men came over from the United States and started a print | ing and engraving business which to | this day is known as Perkins, Bacon & Co., Ltd. They were Jacob Perkins, an inventor, and Gideon Fairman, an engraver, and with them were asso ciated the two sons of James Heath, i It. A. The famous Perkins process of en graving on steel was applied and when millions of postage stamps were first required the Perkins method was | adopted and proved to be Just what was wanted. Credit for the invention of the cd hesive postage stamp hns been claimed both for Sir Rowland Hill and for James Chalmers, a bookseller of Dun dee. The first British postage stamp was black and was Introduced In 1841. It was a queen’s head designed by Henry Cnrbould and engraved by Frederick Heath.—London Tit-Bits.

Nations of Little Entente Are Important Influence Jn Europe From the New York Times. The Little Entente, whose foreign ministers are now In confer ence at Belgrade, is not so little as it sounds. Czechoslovakia, Yugoslavia and Rumania account for a population of 43,000,00ft If we add Poland, whose policies run along with the three other, nations, we get a population block of nearly 70,000,000 in Central Europe. Seventy million people in the heart of Europe are not to be easily dismissed as mere satellites of French imperialiun. Their fate is bound up with the movement of events at Paris, but they do not take their marching orders from Paris. Their national in terests in turn make themselves heard on the Quai d’Orsay. The area of the Little Entente and Poland can probably show as much “sacred egoism” per capita as any part of Europe. Central in geography, the nations of the Little Entente are central in the position they are bound to occupy as between France and Great Britain. If it came to a definite choice between Paris and London, the Little Entente would, of course, line up with Paris, for their national existence is even more closely bound up with the peace treaties than Frenchmen think that their own national security is. But short of that long-heralded break-up of the big Entente wMch has not come, the interests of the smaller nation* of Central Europe demand that economic restoration of the con tinent which Great Britain puts to the forefront and France has not yet done. The Belgrade conference thus has a significance reaching be yond the special problems on the Central European agenda. Bel grade is in a sense the curtain raiser for the bigger show. What happens at Belgrade in regard to Russia, for instance, may be regarded as a forecast of what is likely to happen with regard to Russia in London and in Paris. But it will obviously be of vital importance for the smaller nations that contacts between England and France shall be turned into the ways of agreement. The na tions of Central Europe need French support merely to exist, They need the reconstructive policies of Great Britain if they are to thrive. Thus the nations of the Little Entente are the natural intermediaries between France and Great Britain en the continent. If Christ Should Come. If Christ should come to earth again. And we should see his shining Stnr, High over Bethlehem’s solemn plain. That seemed to becken from afar; Would we arise and haste away, As did those Wise Men long ago, Or would we falter and delay, And wonder why they hurried so? If Christ should come, what would He find? Would He rejoice or bow His head, To see the children naked, blind, And men from whom all hope had fled? Would he uphold the present creed ? Nay, He would hasten to condemn. All things composed of graft and greed Which turm to beasts’ hearts, those of men. Gold rules the world as ne’er before, We beg In vain at Mercy’s seat The profiteer stands at the door, And views the ruins, full, com plete; While millions starve he plays hi* game, And gambles in the nation’s food. Well knowing that he Is to blame, That brother thirsts for brother's blood. If Christ should come, would men rejoice, Or would they bow their heads in shame? Would nations recognize Ills voice. Or stare at mention of Ills name? Are we so steeped in wickedness. That hearts and voices would be dumb, Before the Man of Holiness, If Christ should come—If Christ should come? —Florence Borner, In Capper’s Weekly. ' - _ _ JOBS By Kill Adam*. It'D a responsible Job. I adore responsibility. I love packing a toad; but one must do the thing right. I think that a man who fears to carry a weight of re sponsibility upon his shoulders, absolutely all to himself, and to do It joyously, Is falling down a little In his manhood. I think that tho greatest thing—one of them— there are so many great things— is to be able to feel the Joy ol having a load stuck upon your shoulders that you know Is too much for you—and then set your teeth, dig your toes in, and off up the high hill trail—load and all. It's the very—-of a job, but It has fine compensations. Tht Last Straw. From the Telephone Record. Mr. Busiman was exasperated with the telephone. Ten times that morning he had tried to get a number and each time something or other had prevented him from speaking. At last lie got through. "Hello!” he said, "Is Mr. X. there?” “Yes,” replied a voice. "Do you want to speak to him?” That was ths last straw. Back went the reply In icy tones: "Oh, no! f merely rang h!m up to hand him a clgaret.” Ths Franknas* of Franklin. From the Boeton Transcript. Benjamin Franklin having been touched by an Impecunious relative to the extent of $50, was asked for a sheet of paper so that the borrower could give him a note for the amount. "What!” exclaimed Franklin, "do you want to waate my stationery at well as my money?" Domeatio Not*. From the Richmond Timea-Dispatch. "And so,” ran on the village gossip, “sl^t walked In and found her husband there with hla typewriter on his lap." "Gee!

Out o’ Luck. ’•Rastus, ars you a married man?” “Nosaeh, row, ah earns mah awn living* TODAY BY ARTHUR BRISBANE A few days ago everything looked wonderfully smooth for the admin istration. Hiram Johnson might be able to stir up something but "wise men’’ salf It didn’t seem probable. McAdoo might matte a strong dem ocratic run, but It probably wouldn’t make much difference. Now comes the Teapot Dome oil scandal, with the oil reser ves of the navy sold to a private concern, and a very unpleas ant discussion as to what happened to a certain lump sum of $100,000. Unless that Is thoroughly cleaned up immediately and by the republi cans themselves, not waiting for dem ocrats to do it, it may make a big difference in the election of 1924. However, it is not likely that Mr. Coolldge will wait For democrats to do hts housecleaning. Yesterday’s testimony concerning the Teapot Dome, especially young Mr. Roosevelt’s account of his re signing from the oil company, will Interest you and the voters. You will probably hear from President Cool idge and the attorney general within 48 hours. That is not the sort of scandal that can be allowed to simmer too long. Myra Cole, 17 years old, went to the mill at 6:30 in the morning, in the little Massachusetts village of Hill’s Grove, and got away at 6 in the af ternoon. She thought she would try New York. She went without eating for sev eral days, fell In a faint on the street, and has been sent back to Hill’s Grove. She will start in again at the mill, again at 6:30 in the morning, and get out at 6 in the afternoon. But things used to be worse. Mora than 80 years ago, the late Albert Brisbane, who wrote for the front page of Horace Greeley’s New York Tribune asked the good men of New Kngland who advocated aboli tion of slavery, “since you are so much interested in the poor black slaves, why don’t you free your own white women that you drive into your mills before daylight and keep there until dark?” Albert Brisbane, by the way, used to pay Horace Greeley cash for the right to write his opinions on the Tribune’s first page. His unworthy son has a better financial arrange ment. - I This telegram is received from Reno, Nevada: “Two Chinese will be executed by lethal gas, Carson City, Nevada, February 8.

Reverend Oils L.

What can you say about civl- ** ! lited human beings forcing two I Chinamen into an airtight “lethal chamber,’’ turning on deadly gas and killing them? The constitution of the United States forbids cruel and un usual punishment. This method of killing is at least unusual. A good lawyer ought to be able to postpone that execution. Will the men be tied down or strapped in chairs in the lethal cell? Will they be killed two at a time or separately? Will they he left free to dash their heads in despair against the wall# of the death trap? Will a Chineae Interpreter explain to tnera what is going to happen? Will a clergyman mumble prayers through the walls of the cell? It’s an interesting experiment In our “clvf !

First, are all who know from comparisons or through the experiences of friends that Chevrolet provides the utmost dollar value in modern, economical transportation of people or merchandise. Second, the large group of people with modest incomes who have the false impression that so good a car as Chevrolet is beyond their meant. . They do not realize that due to engineering excellence and full modem equipment, Chevrolet operating and tnaintc* nance costs average so low that during the life of the car, it delivers modem, comfortable, fast transportation at the lowest cost per mile, including the purchase price. Third, the smaller but very important group of car ownent of ample means, only a small percentage of whom as yet realize that Chevrolet as an extra car virtually costs them nothing, due to the reduction in their transportation expenses effected by it. We respectfully suggest consideration, investigation and aomparison of Chevrolet with any other car at any price.

One reason for this is found in the fact that they are great coffee drinkers. Coffee contains caffeine, a drug, prescribed by doctors as an emergency stimulant for the heart and nervous system. It has a tendency to increase blood pressure, develop heart irreg ularities and cause digestive dis turbances. If you feel that coffee is not good lor you, serve Postum as your meal time drink. Postum is a pure cereal beverage that refreshes and satisfies. It is ab solutely free from caffeine or any other irritating drug. Try a cup of Postum with your dinner or supper tonight.
