Splitting Treasury Notes.
Baltimore Sun.

A new departure in the matter of counterfeiting
money was brought to light at the United States
sub-treasury in Baltimore few days ago. A
somewhat worn ten-dollar government bill was
presented at the cashiers window with request
for change, which was given. The note was sent
to Washington as mutilated currency, and was re-
turred with the information that one side of the
note was good, but the other side was a well-exe
cuted counterfeit of the original. 1t was found
that genuine ten dollar bill had been split, the
face being separated from the back, a seemingly
impossible undertaking. The original face, with
a counterfeit back, had been used, and 1t is quite
likely that the genuine back, with well executed
counterfeit face, had been passed in some other
quarter. The portion Of the note was worth ex-
actly its proportion of the whole, or, in other
words, five dollars. More recently another ten
dollar "front" presented at the cashiers win
dow, with similar request for change. The
clerk at the window, suspecting the bill, told the
man who handed it in to wait a moment until he
could consult DIR. Bishop, the sub-treasurer. Dr.
Bishop recognized in the note the familiar game,
and said il worth just five dollars. When the
clerk returned to the window, however, the man
had left without waiting for his change. The
sub treasury, which out five dollars on the
first transaction, was evened up by the second.
This system of manipulating paper money is per
haps one of the most dangerous forms of swind-
ling ever attempted. One or more genuine "fronts"
mixed with several whole notes would be liable
to deceive expert bank telers. The face bearing
undoubted proof of genuineness, very few would
be apt to examine the backs of all the notes. un
less something in the feel of the paper might
arouse suspicion. Then should any one, especial
ly if not so expert as bank teller, happen to
strike the counterfeit side and have his doubts
about the notes, glance at the other side would
possibly set at rest all questions. 1t would seem
that the expert manipuators of paper currency
will eventually compel the government to rivet
together the two sides of its promises to pay.

Simon Cameron's First School Book

Frank Raymond, IN Heading Herald.
1 heard little story about Simon Cameron
which is interesting to-day. Just after Simon be-
gan going to school it took months of saving from
the odds and ends of the family economy to buy
him single book. Eagerly did he watch the
gathering pile of carpet rags his mother accumu-
lated, and when she thought there was enough he
took them to the country store with light heart.
The book cost ST., and the package was 27 cents
short of enough to secure it. Tears came into his
eyes as Mr. Evans, the country storekeeper, told
him of the deficiency; but when he saw the lads
disapp intment he said "Simon, you are good
boy; take the book, and you can pay me the q
cents when you can" 1t was the best investment
he ever made, for he lived long enough to see
the boy whom he had thus befriended wealthy
and powerful man. He not only paid the 27 cents
when he got it, but in thousand other ways re-
paid the kindness.

Right You Are.-An exchange says: "In

they will not longer submit to having their prop

in this matter. The best way in the world to ad-
vertise is in the newspapers. They go regularly
into the families and are read carefully by the
whole family and if the neighbors happen to be
of the kind that don't take papers, or "havn't
time to read" why hey also slip over and peruse
the "family paper" SO you see the newspaper is
bound to be read, whether it is paid for or not,
thus making it the very best advertising medium.
