MODEL BANK DIRECTORS.
The Raro Methods Of the Guardians Of
Chester's Little Bank.

If some other banks in the country
had a Board of Directors made Q.i'it'as
the kind of stuff the directors of Ger on s,g

renee fG fGPrGie rGie sa6Sqqrcg. Every director of the
| Chester Bank is a farmer. They go to
the bank every Saturday to see that
things are all right. The cashier is a
man that any one of the Board would
mortgage his farm to get money to loan
to hlm on his own security if he wanted
it, and the President they would trust
with anything they had and take his
word.
But when they meet at the bank they
drop all their individuality. They are
bank directors then, and they are there
to direct. They don't take the cashiers
word or the Presidents word for any
thing. The cashier don't show them a
package and tell them it contains so
and so, and then put it in the safe with
out being asked TO show it up. Not
much. Our directors say, "Fetch out
your books, and empty the vault and
safe" and it is done.
Every envelope is opened and its con-
tents examined and noted. Every bill
is counted, and every coin to the last
copper. Then the books are called for,
and they are gone over just the same,
and they've got to balance, or the direc-
tors will find out why they don't. Once,
in examining the books, it was found
that the cash on hand and the books
didn't agree. There was 25 cents en-
tered on the books which was not on
hand and was not accounted for. Every
package was examined again, and every
dollar recounted, but still there was the
25-cent deficiency. After an hour or so
spent in a fruitless search for the miss
ing money, the President, grown weary,
said:
"Well, gentlemen, as you have found
everything strictly correct, and as this
25-cent discrepancy is evidently the re-
suit Of some little error which we will
find on Monday, will mako the cash
good out of my own pocket, so the books
will balance, and we can adjourn"
Well, not much. The directors
wouldn't have it. No. sir. It might be
an error, and it might be something
else, and the directors refused to give
up their examination until everything
was satisfactorily explained Six times
the safe and its contents were examined
and counted and the books gone over.
On the sixth time the missing twenty
FIVE cents was found in a big envelope,
where it had caught in some way in
under a loose flap, and was rolled out on
the table. This made everything square
and satisfactory, and the dire ctors
passed on the acts of the officers of the
bank, approved them, and adjourned.
The Chester Bank isn't a very big one,
but I'll bet it's got the biggest Board of
Directors of any bank in this country"
said the gentleman from Chester, exul-
family.

hundreds of persons interested in a

the tricks Of the midnight hog weighers,
said:
'Why, sir, these men can get into a

Preferrlng His own Horn.

At popular boarding-house in Winter
st., Boston, many years ago soiourned a
bachelor gentleman of cultivation and
prepossessiDg appearance, Int addicted
to one disagreeable habit He would,
while sitting either at The breakfast,
dinner or tea table, deliberately draw
forth his old.fashioned bandana hand
kerchief, and applying it 10 his probos-
els, produce a noise which would over
whelm the sound of an ordinary fi-h-
horn. It was a great annoyance TO his
fellow-boarders, and as he appeared in
sensible to the dissgreeable result OF his
performances. it was resolved to give
him gentle hint that the company had
heard enough. One morning a small
but nicely finished tin horn, with note
attached, was discovered on lis plate.
All the boarders were in a state of ex-
pectancy. In walked the gentleman,
seated himself, and, apparently sur
prised inspected the horn and then
read the note. The effect was magical.
He rushed from the table to his room,
and in the course OF the day bade farewell
to the house. Thenote was asnggestion
that, for variety's sake, he would adopt
the little horn for table performances.

Self Measurement.

"The great trouble with people, said
brilliant woman recently, sis that they
have no standard of self-measurement.
Now, if I take a candle into a dark
corner 1t Eliminates that corner; but if
l take it ont into a dark night it is of
little use; now. isn't it9" The very
obvious point was conceded. "Weli,
then, she resumed, "that is an illustra-
ton of the relative powers of many
people. But everybody wants to be
something he cannot. The candle would
be a lamp, the lamp a gas jet, the gas
jet an electric light and the electric
light a sun. Consequently, we have
people doing good things poorly, in
stead of doing suitable things well. 1t
is all owing TO having no self-measure-
ment."
