The New Money Fad.

Can you give mo 5000 in new moneys''

few days ago. ''Mr. - wants it for his
wife"
Certainly" replied the teller, recognize
ing in the applicant the confidential clerk
OF one Of the banks heaviest depositors.
The money was handed out in clean, crisp
tens and fives that had never been in circu-
lation. After the young man had gone the
teller remarked to the writer: "That new
money fad is on the increase. Just as soon
as man begins to feel little tony he gets
the notion that no member of his family
ought to handle the soiled and crumpled
currency in general circulation. When
The madame goes a-shopping she must
have her purse filed with brand new bills
Many persons explain their mania for
new money on the theory that there is con
tagion in the much handled bills. They
seek to keep disease away from their fam
lily circle by excluding, to as full an extent
as possible, all money that has been in cir
culation. They keep a supply Of new bills
OF various denominations constantly on
hand, and the ladies of the household feel
that they are thus well protected against
contagion." Most of the new money is
procured directly from the banks, but
there are frequent individual applications
at the sub-treasury for new bills and new
coin. When the sub-treasury has an
abundance of small denomination bills on
hand such applications are unhesitatingly
complied with.-Montreal Star.

If still living, Miss Nancy Taylor, of
Grant township, Taylor county, Ia, is pos
sessed of one of the most remarkable pairs
of eyes ever heard of this side of the realms
of wonderland. Her curious optical defect
has been known TO her parents ever since
she was a small child, and to the people of
that portion Of Taylor county since the
child first started to school, but her fame
on account Of the freakish characteristics
of hereyesdid not spread beyond the limits
of the state until about 1887, when Miss
Nancy had reached the mature age of 10
years.
Persons with but smattering of optics
know that oculists have a theory that
everything we see is seen in its inverted
order; daily association from the cradle up
being all that makes such objects appear
in regular order the impression conveyed
TO the brain by the optic nerve showing
objects standing just the reverse to the
way our seeing sense" teaches us they

book or paper she does so by holding it in

standing few feet away appear all right
to her, the paper or book must be turned
upside down before a word can be read. -

II has since borne simply because it was
then the custom to refer the origin Of all

would not be at all surprising to find all
the trade with Mediterranean ports at that

Renders viii recall how ia the time of
the Crusades, few centuries before, it had
been the practice to speak OF ali Moham-
medan people as Saracens, while the fact
was that that people were but a small
tribe in Arabia. The instances are quite
parallel.
When the fowl was brought to this coun-
try, its original home, it kept the name
which had been given 1t in England, and
more than that it gave this name to the
hndomesticated variety, which has since
been known as the wild turkey. The cir
