A BANNER in Lille, France, had the
misfortune to wet eighteen bills of the
Bank of France, and in order to dry
them he placed them on board at an
open window where the sun shone upon
them. They dried more rapidly than
was anticipated. A gust of wind car
ried them into the street, where, I'M
fortunately, goat picking up odds
and ends at once captured the bank
bills and swallowed them. The goat
was purchased and the bills secured in
very dilapidated condition, but the
Bank of France recognized its obliga-
tions and redeemed them.
