-ocr page 13-T " ^ HE equifiment or "j)lant" of a type fovindry consists of kundreds of thousands of moulds,
mackines. tools and a]5f)liances. Because of tke utmost accuracy required in tke f)ro-
ducts, it takes a long time, great skill and large caj)ital to equij) tke J)lant, as only
ordinary mackinery, tools and af)j)liances can be f)urekased, all tkose required for tke finer work
kaving to ke designed and made est)ecially for tkeir various J)urJ)oses. Producing tke equij^ment
of a tyt)e foundry kas, invariably, keen accomfilisked only ky ardent and kigk skilled work, and,
almost invariably, only tkrougk tke succeeding skill of several generations, and tkrougk various
stages and ckanges of ownerskij) kave tyt)e foundries become successful and first-class.
Tke kistories of many well known tyfie foundries in Euro^ie and in tkis country make
interesting reading for t)rinters, type founders, and ,tke fjublic in general, Tkey teack J>articu-
larly tkat tke tyl>e founding art is tke basis for tke tyf)ograf)kical art, wkick, in turn, is essential
to tke growtk and exjjansion of all otker industries. Tke kistory of tkis, Tke H. C. Hansen
Tyf>e Foundry, is in many resj^ects different from tkat of any otker, as its success kas all been
accomt>lisked by one t)erson witkout assistance of combinations, but tkrougk kis {.ersistent labor
and skill. It can therefore, be best explained by giving a skort descriJ)tion of kis life and labors.
Mr. H. C. Hansen was born October sixteenth, 1845, in a small town in tke soutkern t)art
of Norway. His grandfather was tke owner and ojjerator of flour mills and farms. His grand-
fatker on kis motker\'s side was sufierintendent of iron works, and was in jpossession of tke secret
of Jjroducing wrou gkt iron from cast iron (tke well known Norway iron). He kas been able to
collect tke kistory of kis ancestors for about tkree kundred years back, and found tkem to kave been
of considerable f)rominence in tke community in wkick tkey lived. His fatker l)urckased an estate,
including river and waterfalls, and erected tkereon, in tke year 1851, mills oj^erated by water
t)ower. Mr. Hansen, in kis sixtk year, got kis first knowledge of meckanical engineering. It
was esj>ecially interesting to kim to learn tkat one :^iece of iron could be cut witk anotker piece
of iron in tke ska^e of a cold ckisel. During ckildkood ke applied all kis spare time to making
miniature mills of various kinds and otker articles for tke amusement of kimself and playmates.
As a young man ke became tolerably efficient in every trade known to kim at tkat time, suck as
blacksmitking, carpentering, painting, wkeelwrigkt, tailoring, skoe-makmg, glazing, bridge build-
ing, stone and brick laying, lock and clock making and farming. His sports were mostly boating,
fisking and gunning.
He graduated from tke Tecknology at Horton, in 1866, and went abroad to gain further
knowledge, remaining some time in eack of tke following countries, Denmark, Germany and
England, engaging in various meckanical industries, suck as engine and skip kuilding, boiler making
and tke making of cylinder printing presses. Arriving in Boston, January 11, 1868, ke entered
tke emJ)loy of tke Dickinson Type Foundry, tkrougk the medium of an advertisement in tke
Boston Herald. He remained in tke emt^loy of tke Dickinson Type Foundry until after tke
kig Boston fire, November 9, 1872, engaged ^rinci^jally in tke making of tyj^e, krass rules,
matrices, leads, slugs, metal furniture, etc. Wkatever kranck of tyj^e making ke was directed to
do was always executed to a J)erfection, and no salesman in tke office or any of tke customers
ever found kis work defective.
Wken in tke emf)loy of tke Dickinson Tyfje Foundry ke made tke column rules, kead rules,
daskes. etc.. furnisked for tke first issue of tke Boston Gloke. Tke fire of Novemker 9tk con-
sumed all of tke Dickinson Type Foundry\'s t>lant witk tke excejition of tke l>unckes. matrices
and moulds wkick were ke:^t in safes, kut tkey were considerably damaged. Tke mackinery.
tools and otker devices were destroyed, and it keeame necessary for tke re-estakliskment of tkat
foundry to f)urckase tke kest obtainable, but it was not up to tke standard of construction to
conform witk Mr. Hansen\'s concejjtion of wkat could and skould be accom:^lisked in tke way of
imf)roved and labor saving mackinery and devices. It was owing to tkese and similar circum-
stances tkat Mr. Hansen formed tke bold resolution to establish a Ty^e Foundry of kis own.
relying entirely on kis own resources and ability. Tke only devices in kis ;^ossession at tkat
time were a two-foot measuring rule and a limited cafiital.
His first act in keginning was tke designing, drafting and constructing of mackinery. etc.
for making brass rule, circles, ovals, leads, slugs, metal furniture and otker articles wkick were
not easily obtained from any manufacturer in Boston. By constant work from early in tke
morning until late at nigkt. Mr. Hansen was akle to fill orders by tke end of tke year 1872.
His customers were so well pleased witk kis goods tkat at every opportunity wken any of tkeir
printer friends wanted anytking in kis line tkey referred tkem to Mr. Hansen. To tkis date
wken inventive genius is needed, many manufacturers send tkeir inquiries to Tke H. C. Hansen
Type Foundry.
In tke year 1875. for want of space, ke moved kis foundry from 24 Exckange Street,
to 26 Hawley Street, and added to kis plant type mackines, moulds and matrices for casting
quads and spaces to tke old standard of kodies, as eack type foundry made type to tkeir own
irregular standards. Tke Marder-Luce Type Foundry, of Ckicago, was tke first to adopt tke
point system standards, and Mr. Hansen made spaces and quads to tke point standards, and was
tke first one in New England adopting tke point standard kody sizes.
Among kis first, largest and kest constant customers may ke mentioned Tkomas Todd,
Rand, Avery ^ Co., Rand-Avery Supply Co.. Rockwell ^ Ckurckill Co,, A. Mudge ^ Son.
L. Barta. Wrigkt ^ Potter Printing Co.. Sampson. Murdock ^ Co.. J. S. Cusking ^ Co..
Frank Wood, F. H. Gilson, Ginn ^ Co.. C. H. Simonds ^ Co.. Perry. Mason ^ Co..
C. H. Heintzman. E. B. Stillings. Samuel Usker, and tke Boston Newspapers, as tkey, witk
many otker first-class kouses were seeking for new designs and new metkods in printing, tkis
afforded Mr. Hansen great opportunity to gain knowledge of tke printers\' wants and enabled kim
to furnisk goods and articles tkat could not be obtained from any otker firm.
Eack department in tke type foundry requires special expert kelp, suck as designers and
engravers in tke punck cutting departments; fitters and battery men in tke fitting departments;
casters and adjusters in tke type casting departments; dressers, kerners, setters, rubbers and
pagers in tke type finisking departments; dividers of fonts: labelers and packers of type in tke font-
ing departments; mould makers, tool makers and mackinists in tke maekine skops; casters and
finisliers in tlie lead, slug and metal furniture dei^artments; rule makers and finisliers in tlie
trass rule dej)artments ; compositors and t)ressmen in tlie s:pecimen j^rinting de:partments ; drafts-
men, ;pattern and cabinet makers in tlie drafting and wood-working dejîartments ; salesmen, skippers,
bookkee|)ers. collectors. tyl>ewriters and stenograJ)kers in tke warerooms and offices. Mr. Hansen is
an expert in all tke trades \'and professions witk tke exception of tke last mentioned. He can execute
or give directions, wken occasion requires, in any or all of tkese branckes. Wkenever kis cus-
tomers kave asked kis advice in any meckanical difficulty ke kas been able and willing to impart
tke needed instructions, and many inventors kave saved or made money by receiving kis impartial
opinion.
Experienced workmen in type making were for many years not to be kired except by taking
tkem from some otker type foundry, wkick was against Mr. Hansen\'s principles to do. and ke
never kired any men wkile tkey were in tke employ of any otker foundry. His metkod kas
been to select tke most intelligent young men from otker occupations, and, witk kis instruction,
tkey kave become tke best workmen in type making. His employees kave been most sougkt for
by otkers, and many of tke best type makers witk kis competitors are men wko received tkeir first
and principal instructions from Mr. Hansen, but ke kas retained tke ckoice men for kis own
foundry. Several of kis men kave been witk kim from twenty to more tkan tkirty years, and ke
kas tke most expert kelp employed in any type foundry.
Among kis first inventions for tke benefit of tke printing industry was making steel cut-
ting dies for use on tke printing press, round and square brass corners, tke blocking of regular
borders, circles, ovals and cutting dies in metal, tke irregular waved and nicked line brass rule
borders, and tke making of music type from brass. Not tke least important is tke making of type
metal. Mr. Hansen kas made it a special study to compound tke most durable metal from cop-
per, tin, lead and antimony, tkese being tke only metals of any practical value in tke composition
of type metal, and ke kas been successful in producing metal type of tke kigkest grade.
Among kis numerous inventions may be mentioned one of recent years most important to
tke type founding and typograpkical arts. It enables tke type founder to produce fonts of type
to perfect keigkt and witk less labor tkan by tke old metkod of filing matrices to keigkt by kand.
It consists of very sensitive and accurately designed and constructed instruments and mackines,
wkick ke patented, in tke year 1903, in tkis country and Europe. Besides in kis own foundry,
tke same are in usé in tke largest independent type foundry in tke West, and also in one of tke
foremost type foundries in Paris, France, to wkom ke kas furnisked instruments and mackines
and granted license to operate. Mr. Hansen kas designed and constructed kis own type casting
mackines. type moulds, type finisking mackinery, tools and devices, mackinery. moulds, etc. for
tke making of leads, brass rules, and all otker articles necessary for tke manufacture of type in
all its branckes; ke kas improved and simplified everytking; designed numerous faces for type
and borders. Of kis inventions in mackines for tke trade may be mentioned tke Hansen Per-
forating Mackine, Hansen Complete Mitering Mackine, Rule Curving Mackine and tke Hansen
Complete Lead and Rule Cutter, all of wkick kave proved superior to all otker makes.
Taking great interest in tke advancement of all industries, ke visited tke Centennial Expo-
sition at Pkiladelpkia, 1876, Columbian Exposition at Ckicago, 1893, and tke Louisiana
Purckase Exposition at St. Louis, 1904, and most of tke various industrial and meckanical
fairs in New England and New York. He kas been a constant observer and student of tke
rebuilding of Boston, and no new enterprise, be it large or small, witkin kis reack, escapes kis notice.
Before tke estaUisKment of the TyJ)e Foundry Trust in 1892. tkere were many indefjen-
dent tyj)e foundries in tkis country of wkiek only four are remaining. It was tKe f)ride of Boston
tkat it kad five, as follows: Tke Dickinson Type Foundry. Tke Boston TyJ)e Foundry, Tke
New England TyJ>e Foundry. Curtis ^ Mitckell TyJ^e Foundry and Tke H. C. Hansen Type
Foundry. Tke Dickinson and Boston Foundries were taken in tke trust; tke New England
and Curtis ^ Mitckell Foundries dissolved, it is sufjjosed. for lack of skill; tke only one now
remaining doing all its manufacturing in Boston is Tke H. C. Hansen Tyl)e Foundry.
Wken Mr. Hansen first entered a tyj)e foundry and began making type ke started in tkat
trade, not as beginners usually do, witkout any J)ractical knowledge, but ke began witk tkeoreti-
cal and J)ractical knowledge as a meckanical engineer, a great matkematician and a student of
imf>rovements and inventions, and, being blessed witk good kealtk and strengtk, ke aJ)J)lied kis
energies and knowledge to tke uf)building of tke type foundry and tke making of type.
Witk forty-one years\' J)ractical exj)erience in type making credited to Mr. H. C. Hansen,
to wkick kis well equifjJjed, kigk standard type foundry bears evidence, may it not be justly
claimed by Tke H. C. Hansen Tyf)e Foundry tkat it kas tke most exf)ert tyjie founder living
as its general manager and f>rof)rietor?
In mentioning tke above facts for tke first time, in tke biograJ)ky of H. C. Hansen, we
wisk to conclude witk tke great imjjortance of kaving suck a kead to build uj) tkis. Tke H. C.
Hansen TyJ)e Foundry, so tkat it is now an undisj)uted fact tkat tkis TyJje Foundry kas all
J)ossibilities to continue for generations to come, keej)ing its standard at tke kigkest J)oint.
In its manufacturing det)artments, Mr. Hansen kas a son, L. A. Hansen, wko kas already
served several years under kis sujjervision. Anotker son, H. Alfred Hansen, now manager of
Tke H. C. Hansen TyJ)e Foundry, after receiving a meckanical training, starting in tke year
1897, began in tke mackine skof) under Mr. H. C. Hansen\'s instruction, working as an af>f)ren-
tice in tke blacksmitk dej^artment. forging various tools and later building type moulds, type
machines, and otker maekinery for tke foundry. He also went tkrougk tke general working of
lead and slug, brass rule and matrix defiartments, and all otker def)artments. Afterward ke
entered as a salesman, and later in tke office in kis Jjresent J)Osition. At tkis date ke keef)s in
touck witk all tke manufacturing def)artments and many inventions kave been brougkt about by
kis knowledge of meckanics and tke training received from kis fatker. He kas brougkt about tke
establiskment of & N^ew Y^ork branck and agencies in many leading cities in tke United States.
Comf)lete J)rinting offices kave been skif)f.ed from our Boston office to San Francisco and
Hansen Tyfie is f>revailing in tke Nortkwest, being skij>j)ed from our St. Paul agency. Skif)-
ments of Hansen Tyfje are now going broadcast to all jaarts of tke world.
Previous to tkis tkere kas been no oJ)J)ortunity to place before tkose interested in tke |)rint-
ing office and fiubliskers a fair ret)resentation of tkis type foundry, illustrated in tke form of a
catalog, and we kojpe tkat tkis book will be carefully jjreserved and referred to. Tkere are many
items of im|)ortance tkat could not be com{)leted in time to be included in tkis book. Evidence of
our Jjosition in tke kigk rank of Tyf)e Founding is, we believe, well disclosed in tkis book. Tke
J)atronage of our f)rinter friends kas made all tkis f.ossible, and it is to tkem we acknowledge
kerein our gratitude. Tkeir kearty suf)f)ort in tke future will enable us to J)rogress, wkick will
be to our mutual advantage. Tkis TyJ)e Foundry is absolutely indet)endent and is not connected
witk, or controlled by, any combination or trust. Criticisms sent in to tke Boston manager will
be aJ)J)reciated. Untrue rejjorts kave been made, by comJ)etitors and kistorians, relative to tkis
foundry, but we believe we are now defended by tke facts mentioned above as well as by tkis
comfilete catalog.

took are cast on ^taubatb Ettl^. Standard Lme
is tlie t)rincit)le ty wliicli all faces of one body line
automatically at tlie foot without justification,
and different todies can te lined together ty the
use of l)oint leads or f^oint slugs in justification.
In a few cases, certain type faces, such as the
Gothic No. 1, Gothic Cond. No. 5, etc., are
cast on Point Line, which indicates that differ-
ent todies of the same series can te made to line
with each other ty justification of t>oint leads
and slugs.
A few faces, such as Tyt)ewriter Type. Oas-
lon Old Style No. 1 and Gothic Cond. No. 4,
are left on the original line to preserve the special
features of the design, also to allow use of more
words in a given space, as it avoids f)lacing a small
face on a larger tody. Certain such faces can te

Universities of Chicago and Wisconsin Will Renew
Football Next Fall
CHICAGO, Feb. 18—Chicago and Wisconsin
will meet in football next November at Mar-
shall field. The Maroons and Cardinals, who
have been estranged on the gridiron for the
past two years, will renew their acquaintance
in the final game of the 1908 season, according
to word received today from coach A. A. Stagg.
The Chicago-Wisconsin arrangement consu-
mâtes the long hoped for "big three" intercol-
legiate plan, by which Chicago, Wisconsin and
Minnesota will participate in championshii)
games as the western leaders.
" Coach Stagg is looking to the east for one of
the big games, and the Carlisle Indian team is
thought to be an eastern possibility.

He said he lived in Cambridge.
"Why did you not give your right

"I did," replied the prisoner.
"The probation officer went to your

"O, that\'s the name of the landlady

answered. "My name is Jacob Quick."
He was placed on probation under

without reference to the other name,
Wright, which he declared was wrong.

Mr. lAXcius Tuttle declared, with great
truth, that the present system causes
men with "intangible property" either
to perjure themselves or to move away.
"The tax on intangible property—stocks
and bonds—in all our large cities is sim-
ply farcical."
Very likely a reasonable rate upon
such property would encourage full and
fair returns and by so much add to the
local revenues. It is an experiment

More than 100 men went back to
work at the navy yard yesterday morn-

at work within a day or two. They
return under the recent order to rein-
state all men laid off since Dec. 1 for
lack of work or funds, whose discharge

and workmanship.
When the reinstated men have all
reported the entire force of 2400 men

Washington, Feb. 17—Mr. Maddison
of Illinois today introduced a bill ap-
propriating $100,000 to be paid to the
Lincoln Farm Association to build on
Lincoln birthplace farm in Kentucky,
a national patriotic shrine, which
shall consist of a memorial hall cost-
ing not more than $250,000, of which
sum $150,000 shall be paid by the as-
sociation. According to the terms of
the bill, the hall is to protect the hum-

Judge Lindsey and Many Other Notable
Guests Among Those Present
Fall River, Feb. 18—The new Boys\' club
building on Pocasset street was dedicated
tonight in the presence of a gathering of
twelve hundred people.
From 6 to 7.30 dinner was served to the
invited guests and friends of the club, and
from 7 to 8 o\'clock the high school band
gave a concert. This was followed by the
dedicatory exercises. The addresses were
interesting and were appreciated by the
audience as shown by frequent applause.
One of the features of the exercises was
the marching of nearly 500 boys before the
assembled guests, each boy holding aloft a
sign bearing the name of the country or
state which he came from.
The building is three stories high, built
of granite and pressed brick, and is 121
feet long and 00 feet wide and is the gift
of M. C. D. Borden.
So many men and women attended the
hearing set for yesterday morning on the
bills relative to the medical practitioners
and registration in medicine that no com-
mittee room could be found at the state
house that would contain them, and the
hearing was postponed until March 3, when

year, and commonly regarded as the firrft modern census, included
^tati^ics of manufactures. The results, however, cannot be regarded
as entirely accurate. Invention, expansion and progress have wTought
so mightdy in the half century since 1850 that a statistical bottom firm
enough to hold anchor would be especially welcome, but methods of
enumeration and form of inquiry have so completely changed that even
the least affecfted item, value of products, can be regard-
ed only as a fair approximation. Yet with proper caution
against too implicit confidence the figures of 1850 may be
regarded as a valuable statistical base or starting point
for many of the older or standard industries. In that S

SUGGESTIONS FOR THE JOB COMPOSITOR
The practice that is in vogue in many job printing offices of having jobs
designed and laid out before placing in the hands of the job compositor, thus
depriving him of his most glorious labor, is suggestive that there may be some-
thing wrong with the working methods of job compositors as a whole, though
some contend that it is a step forward in the onward march of progress in
printerdom. Observation warrants the assertion, however, that it is practiced
merely on account of the economy of the method. A gigantic effort is being
made to reduce operating expenses in the composing room.
The job compositor who has a thought for his employer\'s profits will, m
the absence of definite instructions, set a job as simply and effecdvely as
possible. Note how simple in design and construction are many of the best
and most up-to-date specimens of job printing. Compare these with those up-
on which a wealth of labor has been expended, and it will, no doubt, dawn
upon you how unnecessary and costly much of the latter is. Do away with the
idea that a job in order to be artistic must be laborious. In the general run of
work the less labored the job the more artistic and pleasing, providing it dis-
plays the handwork of a student of his art, and the more profitable it is to the
employer. If, after you have designed a job, you find that it is more or less
complicated and much time would be consumed in the composition, try some
plan whereby as pleasing efîects can be obtained by simpler methods to save
time. The compositor who plans to save time rather than to expend it in an
unnecessary manner is the man most appreciated and the man whose position
is permanent. The composing room is the one place in printing oflices where
time savers are urgently needed.
You can sketch out an elaborate design with comparative ease, which, to
put in type, would mean an amount of labor which the average customer is
much opposed to paying for. The compositor who thinks quickest, who is
practical as well as ardstic, who hits the bull\'s-eye oftenest with the least
labor is the most successful. , , j
The most artistic printing is of simple design, but simfhcity does not
necessarily mean severe plainness, but the effecti-ve arrangement of types., bor-
ders, etc., so as to avoid the expenditure of an unnecessary amount of time in

EVEN IN THE ART OF PRINTING, PROGRESS THOUGH
Continuous, was exceedingly slow for three hundred and fifty
years, and although the volume of printed matter has increased
much more rapidly during the last half century, responsive to
the conditions of our age, the use of printing is still very largely
a matter of habit and education, varying widely in different na-
tions, and even among the states of our own Republic. This
fact is illustrated by the expenditures of state governments for
official printing, which show differences so great as to be ex-
plainable only by the habit of the sparing or of the liberal use
of printed matter. The state of New York, for example, has
long been foremost among all the states in the production of
printing; in 1900 the state government expended $654,330.53 for
official printing, while the state officials of Tennessee, a state in
which printing is a minor industry and much less a factor in
daily life, expended in the same year but $8,136.38. The pro-
portion, therefore, of official printing to population was twenty
times as great in New York as in Tennessee. On the whole,
however, the advance of the United States during the last fifty
years, which may be set as the period of greatest industrial ac-
tivity, has been so great and far reaching as to place the mdustry
among the leaders, and to arouse some curiosity concernmg
the part which the printer has played in this half century com-
petition among the great industries. Fortunately it is possible
to measure, approximately at least, the progress which the
principal industries in the United States have made since 1850,
for the federal census, taken in that year, and
commonly regarded as the first modern census,
included statistics of manufacturers. The results,

A REPUTATION FOR PROMPTNESS IS ONE OF THE THINGS
That a printer should strive for. He will have gained a great ad-
vantage when It comes to be said of him that he always gets work
out on time, and it will pay him to endeavor to secure such a re-
putation by every means in his power. I know how prone is the
ordinary business man to wait until he is clean out of stationery,
or whatever he wants, before ordering more, or to postpone until
the latest possible moment the order for circulars, handbills or any
bit of commercial work; and then, when he does give you the
order, he acts as though he thought his was the only work you
had in your shop, that you should give him immediate precedence
over everybody else.
If your office is run systematically, you can tell after a mo-
ment\'s reflection just how the work is getting on, and what
chances there are for getting a new job started in. Then you can
tell your customer when he can have his work, within an hour or
two, unless it is a job of considerable magnitude. Then if he says
Jf;^* is too late, tell him you are sorry, but you would rather lose
ine order than disappoint him in the delivery of it. Explain the
situation fully to him, and it is ten chances to one he will leave
the order.
If he does so, you must have that work ready when it is
promised. One failure to keep your word in this respect will do
you incalculable harm Don\'t promise it a minute earlier than you
nave it ready, but never let the appointed hour go by without
delivering the work.
So much for building up reputation. You will have to help
spread that reputation yourself by telling about it in your adver-

good for a printer\'s advertising as for that of any other man.

adopted, should be used on every piece of advertising the office uses,

A conjurer and a tailor once happened to converse
together. "Alas!" cries the tailor, "what an unhappy
poor creature am I; if people fhould ever take it in
their heads to live without clothes I am undone; I have
no other trade to have recourfe to." "Indeed, friend,
I pity you fmcerely," replies the conjurer; "but, thank
Heaven, things are not quite so bad with me; for if
one trick fhould fail, I have an hundred tricks more
for them yet. However, if at any time you are re-
duced to beggary, apply to me, and I will relieve you."
A famine overfpread the land; the tailor made a fhift

BALANCE OF COMPOSING AND PRESS ROOMS MOST
Essential to profitable operation of printing offices. That the
composing room is considered the unprofitable department by
many printers is due, in many instances, to their failure to keep
the growth of the composing room equivalent to that of the
press room. That more type and material is required for the
operation of several cylinder presses than for the operation of
one press, is obvious, yet many printers lose sight of this fact. 98
8-Point IflA $1.10 38a $1.15 $2.26
FONTS OF LIBERAL SIZE MOST IMPORTANT
Printers believe, and tell their customers, that adver-
tising should be judged by results and not by price
paid. The same argument holds good as to equip-
ment. An investment in sufficient material to avoid
expensive delays in hunting sorts and hold-ups of
the presses is most conducive to a fat pocket book

^HE same day as Viking landed at the island, he
went ashore to amuse himself. He turned his steps
to a forest and then grew very hot. Having come
to an open place in the forest, he sat down, and
saw a woman of exquisite beauty walking along. She
came up to him, greeted him very courteously, and he re-
ceived her very kindly. They talked together a long time,
and their conversation was very friendly. He asked her

asked him if he was not thirsty, as he had walked so far,
but Viking said he was not. She then took a horn, which
she had kept under her cloak, offered him a drink from it,
and he accepting it, and drinking therefrom, became sleepy,
and bending his body into the lap of Solbjort, he fell asleep.
But when he woke up again she had entirely disappeared.
The drink had made him feel somewhat strange, and his
whole body was shivering; the weather was gusty and
cold, and he had forgotten nearly everything of the past,
and least of all did he recollect Hunver. He then went to
his ship and departed from that place. One day sailing to
land, they saw three ships passing the harbor, and at the
meeting they asked for each others\' names. Viking told
his name, but the other chieftain said his name was Half-
dan, and that he was a son of Ulf. Halfdan was a large
and strong-looking man, and when he learned of the con-
dition of Viking he went on board his ship, where they
found him very weak. And thus it was agreed that they
should become foster-brothers. Halfdan had a great
dragon, called Ironram; all of his ship that stood out of
water was iron bound ; it rose high out of the sea and was
a very costly treasure. Having spent a short time there
they left the place and went home to Svafe. The mariner

HENRY WADSWORTH LONGFELLOW
N THOSE days he was described as slight and erect in his
figure, with a light, delicate complexion like a maiden\'s, a
slight bloom upon his cheeks, "his nose rather prominent,
his eyes clear and blue, and his well-formed head covered
with a profusion of brown hair waving loosely." The class to
which he belonged had several memorable names, not the least
memorable of which was that of Hawthorne. Longfellow held
high rank. He was regular and studious In his habits, though
he cared more about general reading than the regular curriculum.
It is interesting to find him at that early day taking the side of
the Indians against the prejudices that have always followed
"that reviled and persecuted race. " He was greatly delighted
with Gray\'s poems, and regarded Dr. Johnson\'s criticisms upon
them as very unjust. In the winter of 1823 he had some thought
of teaching a school, butwas on the
whole glad that he had failed to ob-
tain one. His chief exercise was
walking. When the snow was deep
he cut wood, and he found It rather
irksome. As a makeshift for either
he wrote his father: "I have marked
out an Image upon the closet door
about my own size; and whenever
feel the need of exercise 1 strip off
my coat and, considering this image
as in a posture of defence, make my
motions as though in actual combat.
This is a very classlck amusement.

SO FAR not a ray of originality, nor one of those
graceful, if not always accurate, comparisons
or metaphors which peculiarly mark Longfel-
low\'s fancy. The Yankee "woodman" is not a singing
being, nor have we "larks" under New England skies.
It is Interesting to know that the Gazette then paid
its contributors a dollar a column for prose, and got
its poetry for nothing. The editor regarded Longfel-
low\'s, however, as so full of promise— and any flower
in the desert has a smiling aspect — that he had pro-
posed that the poet should receive some compensation
for his regular contributions.
This, small as it was, seems to
have been enough to excite his
ambition toward a literary ca-
reer. He brought up various
objections against the profes-
lon of a physician—there were
quite enough in the world with-
out him! In another letter to
his father he said, "1 hardly

he never cared to go to

spent a month at Dresden; but social ad-

serious studies, and as his friend Preble
was at Gottingen, he determined to follow
and study as much of a year as possible.
In the Spring of 1829 he went to England

By his evening fire the artist
Pondered o\'er his secret shame;
Baffled, weary, and disheartened,
Still he mused, and dreamed of fame.
\'T was an image of the Virgin
That had tasked his utmost skill;
But alas! his fair Ideal
Vanished and escaped him still.
From a distant Eastern island
Had the precious wood been brought;
Day and night the anxious master
At his toil untiring wrought;
Till discouraged and desponding.
Sat he now in shadows deep,
And the day\'s humiliation
Found oblivion In sleep.
Then a voice cried, "Rise, 0 masterl
From the burning brand of oak
Shape the thought that stirs within theel"
And the startled artist woke,—
Woke, and from the smoking embers
Seized and quenched the glowing wood ;
And therefrom he carved an image.
And he saw that it was good.
0 thou sculptor, painter, poetl
Take this lesson to thy heart:
That is best which lieth nearest;
Shape from that thy work of art.

Falls the trail of its golden splendor,
And the gleam of that single star
Is ever refulgent, soft, and tender.

Showed thus glorious and emulous,
Leaving the arms of Callirrhoe
Forever tender, soft and tremulous.

century, since it has been carefully and reverently preserved as a national
memorial to the poet. There are a few houses of the same period and the

the Church of the Holy Trinity. In this church lie the remains of William
Shakespeare. But the most enduring monument to his greatness are his
works, which are read in all portions of the civilized globe. Quotations

WILLIAM SHAKESPEARE
The greatest of English poets, it is often said, is but a
name. " No letter of his writing, no record of his con-
versation, no character of him drawn with any fulness
by a contemporary," have been extracted by antiquaries firom
the piles of rubbish which they have sifted. Yet of no person
is there a clearer picture in the popular fancy. You seem to
know Shakespeare — to have seen Shakespeare — to have been
friends with Shakespeare. We would attempt a slight delin-
eation of the popular idea which has been formed, not from
loose tradition or remote research, not from what some one
says some one else said that the poet said, but from data which
are at least undoubted, from the sure testimony of his certain
works. Some extreme sceptics, we know, doubt whether it is
possible to deduce anything as to the author\'s character from
his works. Yet surely people do not keep a tame steam
engine to write their books ; and if those books were really
written by a man, he must have been a man who could write
them; he must have had the thoughts which they express,

LIBERTY IN SOME COUNTRIES IS A KIND OF CHARADE WORD
An anagram, a symbol representing an imaginary quantity, a password inven
ted by unhappy men to express all that they do not possess; a term meaning
in the mind of slaves a conglomerate of conditions so absurd, of aspirations
so futile, of imaginary delights so fantastically unreasonable, that if the ideal
state of which the chained dreamers rave were realized but for one moment,
humanity would start in amazement at the first glimpse of so much mon-
strosity, and by and by would hold its sides with laughter at the folly of its
deluded fellows. In most countries where liberty is talked of it is but a
dream, and such a dream as could only occur to the sickened fancy of 1234

WE want you to see the Library Edition
of Balzac. You can\'t come to our
store very well, unless you live in
New York, and even then you would have
no time for adequate examination. You
cannot get acquainted with Balzac by a cur-
sory glance over a few of his books in a
store. You can have no idea of the scope
of the Comedie Humane—that unparalleled
and complete panorama of life — without
reading some of the inimitable stories that
compose it. Humor and pathos, romance
and serious study, problem novel and "Can-
terbury" tale—all are there. You can prove
Balzac\'s ability to entertain you, and at the
same time satisfy yourself regarding the
merits of the Library Edition by filling in
and mailing coupon. As an extra induce-
ment for you to send in your order at once,
we will present you with a beautiful copy of
the English edition of Balzac\'s story, "A
Street of Paris and Its Inhabitant." This

The stick should be closed upon these Quads
to make them as tight as you will space your
matter later on. As you know, every letter
has a nick, which must be placed in your
stick, facing outward. There is a special
nick by which you can distinguish Hansen\'s

THE NUMBER AND VARIETY OF SIGNS USED IN PRINTING
ARE MUCH GREATER THAN THE CASUAL OBSERVER WOULD
Expect. Besides those used in ordinary work there are
many which are only needed in special cases. But a com=
positor needs to know them all, not only their names but also
their uses. And yet how few have ever cared to study them

N these days of advanced ideas, ad=
veftising- is one of the most profitable
vocations connected with the printing:
business. The man who is anxious
to stimulate public interest in his wares is usually
on the lookout for a printer who has the happy
faculty of expressing; things in an interesting
manner, and, having: said it, is able to print it
in the most attractive style. How does he know
this printer ? Chiefly by the ** proof of the
pudding." If a printer sets forth the quality of
his wares in an uninteresting way, with hack=
neyed and carelessly worded literature, how
can he ever hope to arouse any interest among
an up=to==date patronage ? This question of
properly advertising a printing business is of
great moment, and it is true that the popularity
of the most successful printers can be traced to
the one great fountain head—originality. The
small job printer or the large concern who would
acquire fame, must have original ideas.

TRY AND DO A LITTLE MORE WORK
THAN YOU ARE PAID FOR
It is perfectly amazing how blind to their own
interests are the workers in shop, office and factory.
To do a little more than you are paid for, to look
after your employer\'s interests and thus save him
material or time, these aberrations of mind upon
the part of some ambitious employee are the cause
of criticism and ridicule from fellow employees.
Then, when the busy, earnest, ambitious employee
is promoted, it is said to be a case of " favoritism,"
We have seen a foreman of a printing office sneak
Into a corner and read the paper when the employer
was absent. We have seen him fool away time
when work was rushing, just to show the employees
under him that he didn\'t have to hurry. We have
seen the same man madder than a hornet when his
request for a " raise " was met with a refusal. So
it goes. Employees throw away their own chances
of winning advancement and the favor of their em-
ployers, and then complain of the treatment they
receive from this cold, cruel world.t54 t}4

A LITTLE TREATISE ON USING
THE HYPHEN
For some occult reason, aversion to the
use of the hyphen is very common. Cers
tainly some people do say that frequent
hyphens spoil the appearance of print, but
many others find nothing worse=looking
in them than any other character or mark.
Very likely the underlying fact is that the
use of hyphens is thought to be too trouble»
some. Whatever may be the preference of
any one, undoubtedly all practical printers
will say that it is comfortable and econ=
omical to have in the printing office a
practice that all the workers can apply with
like effect, and this is nearly all that is
possible of attainment. Even so, much can
be done only in one way, namely that of
having at hand a record of all forms chosen
for use. J6 Ji o* Ji Ji Ji Ji

the Boston champions not only defeated
St. Louis, but did so without allowing
St. Louis a run, 4 to 0 being the score.
Jesse Tannehill got back into his win-
ning stride again and pitched brilliant
ball. Not a St. Louis man saw third
base and only two saw second. Never
once did St. Louis have a chance to win
or to even score, and the home runs of
Grimshaw and Freeman made it easy
for the champions to land the jackpot.
The two home runs took all interest

NEW HAVEN, Aug. 31.—Mrs. Ella
Wheeler Wilcox tomorrow will lead the
women of Short Beach on a street clean-
ing parade. Armed with brooms, rakes,
shovels and hoes, the women of the
aristocratic summer resort will go from
one end of the colony to the other, rak-
ing up waste paper and refuse or any
kind that may mar the beauty of the
thoroughfares.
Behind them will come a string of
boys with wheelbarrows, who will re-
move the waste raked up by the female
white wings. And the third detach-
ment of the street cleaning army, made
up of women armed with lead pencils
and paper, will take note of the private
residences that need attention.
We are agents for Electric Motors —

They are Inexpensive, dnrahie, always
ready, cost little to operate and great
time savers.

ORIGINALITY DOES NOT MEAN THAT YOU MUST
CREATE SOMETHING NEVER BEFORE HEARD OF
To follow the path of others who have been successful
is but another way of educating yourself In a sort of
school of advertising. Plain words are sure to hit the
bull\'s-eye. One of the great disadvantages that super-
educated people, the majority of advertisers, have to
overcome is the tendency to display their entire vo-
cabulary. it is true that it requires a great deal more
skill to be simple than to be profound. Now, then, to
begin with, fix what you intend to convey permanently
within your mind, then say it in a few words as possi-
ble, pert and to the point. The fewer the better 456
