Passing through small opening we find our
selves in the dungeon where are the ''seven
pillars Of Gothic mould" and we turn and
look Through the crevice and the cliff OF the
thick WALL to see the sunbeam, which gives all
the light there is in this dismal place. The
stone floor is worn in a hollow around the pillar
where poor Bouivard was chained for six years,
and We shudder and talk in whispers in this
gruesome place.
After going through the hall Of justice and
the private rooms Of the Duke of Savoy we
cross courtyard and are shown into very
dark apartment where the criminals were told
there were four sters down which they must
60, while in reality there were only three steps,
and as they went tumbling down their bodies
struck against sharp knives which projected in
all directions, and they at last found resting
place in we'll one hundred feet deep.
The castle is now q military garrison, in q
Ane state Of preservation and as we look back
upon its ivy crowned battlements we breathe a
sigh of relief that those days Of tyranny and
oppression are over and we are glad to see hens
women with their dresses tucked up and long
poles in their hands washing clothes in the
lake near by.
IN THE MARKET PLACE.
The town Of Montreux is quaint and old and
on market days the public square presents .
strange picture. Here the people congregate,
and one sees for sale-hung in the trees and
spread on the ground under improvised tents
everything from hob-nailed shoes TO cheeses
the size of cart wheels, and the haggling that
goes on over two cents worth Of stuff is worthy
a better object. The place swarms with chill
dren, and the way the tiny little things jabber
French is q continual establishment to US, for
they seem SO precocious.
The postmen Of this Swiss hamlet are queer
objects. Their uniform consists of slate-colored
trousers and linen frock like Mother Hub

they wear dark blue military cap trimmed
with red braid. This together with black
leather bag for the letters, which they carry
under their arms, completes their odd attire.

common ancestors Of the reptiles and birds Of

But even now there Is no distinguishable differ

and the reptile. Ali the distinction between
the two. as have said, lies in the fact that the
reptile has scales and the bird feathers, How

How to Count Bank BillG
From the Chicago Tribune


There are two kinds Of bank bills" said q
man who has handled . good many OF them.
There are the national bank bills and the gov
eminent notes. The former have vignsttes ON
each end, the latter on the left hand end only.
The Treasury Department made mistake in
putting the vignetts on the Left end Of the gov.
ernment note, for this reason: Take bundle
Of these bills In bank; the bank CLERK in count
ing such . bundle places his left hand on
the left end OF the bundle and counts the right
end with his right thumb and finger The Wig
nette 10 the most difficult thing to counterfeit,
and for that very reason il is couuterfeited
most. In counting such bills a. have been
speaking about this vignstte il not seen BY
the bank clerk, and he 10 more liable TO count
in spurious note than IL he saw the vignetts.
The expert knows bad vignetts almost ut
glance. l think IL the Treasury Department
had thought of this the vigustts would have
been put on the right end of the bill"
This WAS told TO the cashier Of Dearborn
street bank. He smiled when he heard il I'm
the first place." he said. bank clerks do not
count bills in the way You mention. II they do
they violate orders. The instructions are that
they shall handle the bills 10 that each one will
como entirely within the range Of the eye.
presume there are violations Of this rule in
every bank. Even 90, an expert has other
means Of detecting bad bill than looking al
the vignetts. However, am Of the opinion
that the vignette would b an additional safe
guard If it were on the right end Of the note"

His conscientious search was rewarded, for he
had no sooner got up than . bough broke and
he came down with dull thud, cracking his
skull in . way that called for hasty drive TO
hospital. Hunting trouble" strikes me a
about the least amusing lines Of sport Gen.
orally one needn't even 60 to the pains and
perspirstion Of climbing tree to find ali of IL
be wants. In fact most people are kept busy
dodging the trouble that comes hunting them.
